About this property

Oceanfront home w rooftop deck, private boardwalk

Welcome to "Good Times"! This oceanfront cottage is perfect for a family group of eight or less. "Good Times" is a four bedroom, two bath vintage fishermen’s cottage with modern updates in Kure Beach. If you are a fan of rustic, knotty-pine wood and one-floor living, you will love this house!

Enter through the kitchen and dining area and head towards the oceanfront living area that is bright and spacious, and leads outside to the rooftop deck. There is an enclosed outdoor hot/cold shower and private beach access. The four bedrooms are off of the hallway between the kitchen and into the living room. Along the way you will find a bedroom with two Twin beds, two bedrooms with Queen beds and the full hallway bath. The primary bedroom has a King bed with an en suite full bath.

In addition to being oceanfront, "Good Times " is only a few blocks from the Kure Beach Fishing Pier and a short drive to the Ft. Fisher Historic Museum, the Civil War battleground and the NC Aquarium. While in the area, be sure to check out the Carolina Beach Boardwalk, where you will find shops, restaurants and the summer activities such as fireworks, carnival rides and live music. Watch the fishermen come in with the catch of the day at the marina or dine out with the family. Make plans today to stay in beautiful Kure Beach!

It served our purpose but, not enough outlets to charge devices. The master bathroom floor was covered with long black hair (definitely not mine). Tv remote didn’t work, we had to improvise to watch tv.

Thank you for your review. We’re glad Good Times served your needs, and we apologize for the issues you reported. The hair on the master bathroom floor is unacceptable — we’ve notified housekeeping and reinforced the cleaning checklist and inspections. We have noted the suggestion on the outlet and addressed the remote. Thank you for bringing these items to our attention; your feedback helps us improve.

This is a nice little house with private beach access. My parents are not super agile due to health problems, and they needed support on the walkway to the beach and on the stairs to the rooftop. I would have liked to have the umbrella on the rooftop (we found it under the bed) but it was very heavy to carry up there and we were unsure if it would be safe in the wind. This house is probably best for younger people with no walking difficulties. The large dining room was nice for playing games and doing group activities, as well as eating meals. The kitchen is small- so only 1 or 2 people should work in there at a time. There were not cabinets in which to put the food we brought, but we found places to stash items. Also we had an extra bedroom so we put a lot of stuff in there when it was not in use. Bryant Realty was wonderful and very responsive to our communication.

Thank you for taking the time to review Good Times. We're glad the private beach access and large dining room worked well for your group. We're sorry your parents had difficulty with the walkway and rooftop stairs — we'll review accessibility options, add clearer guidance in the listing and welcome materials, and explore adding safer handrails or assistance where feasible. We appreciate the feedback and are glad we could be responsive during your stay.

The house was all we were hoping for! Much larger inside than we thought. The kitchen was well stocked, the bathrooms were clean and roomy, the bed was comfy, and the living room was cozy. Loved spending time on the beach! The view from the upper deck was fantastic, but we didn't spend any time up there (we went to the beach instead). Our only complaint was the neighbor to the south... they were up late and very loud! We could hear their entire conversations even with our windows closed. That's not a reflection on this rental, just a reflection on them. We'd definitely stay here again!

Great place with one large caveat

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location, nice home, painless check in/check out, booking, etc. Unfortunately we found upwards of 10 roaches during our stay (at least most were dead or dying). That basically ruined it for us.
Response from VrboOwner on 23 May 2022
Hi Jonathan- thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to hear about the roaches! The good news is that they were dead or dying, which means that, in essence, the pest control was mostly effective. However, we can certainly understand why that would be a huge turn-off. No one enjoys bugs where they aren't supposed to be. This is a wonderful home, though, which does undergo routine pest control. Thanks again for your comments- we hope to see you back at the beach again soon!

Great house & location!

Overall, we really loved this house! The location to the beach was awesome, and the rooftop deck was a favorite. Unfortunately there was construction on the huge house next door, and we woke up to hammering every morning. Obviously this won’t always be the case, and this house is such a gem & a little hideout. The size was perfect for us. We had some hiccups checking in as the property was still being cleaned and we weren’t able to get in until almost two hours past check in time. It was remedied with an extended check out time. We missed having a grill to cook, and the kitchen was a bit small but we made it work. We would definitely consider this house again :)

Kure Beach House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House has lots of character and liked the one level feel. The amenities were just slightly lacking compared to other house that we have stayed in the area for the last 6 years, this includes inside and outside amenities. We purchased and left about 6 beach chairs for the next people that stay. The location was great as it was in the middle between Kure Beach and CB, also the beach was not super crowded for being closer to the high rises. I do have to say though that the mattresses were all pretty much uncomfortable as we had people in all the beds. If the mattresss were updated that we would stay again next year. Let me know if you update them.

Thank you for your review. We shared your suggestions with the owner and they plan on assessing the beds this fall and are definitely replacing the bed in the master bedroom. They also stated that they appreciate the beach chairs, they use to leave them for the guest but the would go missing or rust out so fast that guest were complaining about the condition of them so they decided to let the guest bring their own. We are always glad to get your feedback and look forward to seeing you next year.

Good times was great times.

This house was the perfect size for our group... Two adult couples, one adult by herself, and a 3 year old. We ended up not even using the kids room, but it was a good place to stash a lot of our luggage. Highlights: - The house was super clean. - The house is perfectly located... easy walk to the pier (to the south) or Carolina Beach shops/restaurants (to the north). - The communities across the street are really nice to walk/run through... for a longer walk/run, it’s really easy to get to the Carolina Beach Greenway. - The bedrooms get really dark which was awesome on days we wanted to sleep in. - Lots of space to eat for big family meals. - The rooftop balcony was awesome (except for the caveat below) - Really easy to get on and off the beach. We never really even bothered to take a cooler to the beach because it was so easy to run back to the house and grab another drink. Couple of downsides, which probably couldn’t have been avoided... - We noticed ants in the kitchen and the main bathroom as soon as we walked in. However, the rental office had an exterminator out to spray for them in less than 24 hours after we called. -We all got really bit up by various bugs on our first night up on the rooftop balcony. We bought a few citronella candles after that and it seemed to help some. We would definitely stay again!
