This was a great house in an amazing location! We loved the dock and had plenty of room for our boat. The beach is super close too! We had plenty of room in the house and it was very comfortable.

This is a great home with plenty of space and gorgeous views. It is a convenient walk to the beach and local restaurants. There is ample outdoor space and a dock for easy water access. Beautifully decorated with a large stocked kitchen for cooking. We hope to revisit!

Overall had a great stay and would come back again. Decently stocked kitchen- could use a few bigger pans but that’s splitting hairs but was offset by the nice selection of spices/basics. It would be nice to have more than 1 bath towel per person but appreciate the other bathroom amenities (shampoo/body wash etc). Being that we rented at the end of the summer season, the house had a couple issues but we managed just fine (select motorized blinds weren't charged/didn’t work, coffee maker pieces missing, microwave plate missing, some beach towels missing, ice maker broken, while AC worked on top floor-it felt oddly humid). Communication with property manager was good but not always consistent- they said we’re in the midst of some personnel changes so we gave them a pass. Overall, loved the location and would rent again.

Perfect Location

We had such a relaxing few days in Wrightville Beach! This home was stunning! The location was perfect! Close to everything, such a quick walk right across the road to the beach! Quiet and lovely! We watched the most beautiful sunsets right on the deck and the private dock. The home was so clean, decorated perfectly and cozy! It was just my husband and I but it is perfect for large groups! We will absolutely be back next spring with our family! Thank you for being such wonderful hosts!
