Perfect location. More than ample seating indoors & out. Fully ( & I do mean fully) stocked kitchen for literally any meal you choose to prepare. Home is always clean & comfortable. Zero complaints.

Perfect!

Our family loved this house.....it's well maintained, comfortable all around with room for close famiy time or quiet personal time. The kids enjoyed the beach and playing under the house. We walked to Kure Beach Pier, the Tiki Bar and to the Boardwalk each day...even in the rain. Looked for Venus flytraps at Carolina Beach State Park, went to Hang Ten, the Veggie Wagon, the Seawitch and Uncle Vinnies...had Seafood Boil from CFSB....We love this area so much.

Great family vacation house

The owners of this property are wonderful to work with. Check in/check out process is easy. We love that this house looks like a beach house, but has comfortable beds and is very clean. This was the perfect house for our family beach vacation and we loved our stay in Kure/Carolina beach!

Great house

Great property & location. Our only criticism is not of the property but of the beach itself. There was a substantial drop off in the water that made it treacherous as the waves tended to crash onto the beach. There is also a “storm drain” that extends into the ocean directly behind the house that posed a danger as the life guards were constantly having to steer people away . Lifeguards were definitely a plus!

Plentiful amenities

Best rental in 5 years. The beds are comfortable, not overly soft. The linens are upscale. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need. The gas grill was a plus. Exquisite view of the ocean and dunes. Central to Carolina Beach and Kure Beach. Not overly crowded on the beach. We will definitely plan a return visit to this house.

A little surprise

This was a beautiful, well maintained property with an excellent view of the ocean and a private deck to the beach. My only criticism is finding out beach towels and beach chairs were not include. I don't feel this was clearly stated on the posting, as one of the pictures shows beach chairs on the deck and one of the reviews mentions that it was great to have the chairs and towels included. Please understand that two of our party flew and our car was packed with supplies for everyone. I think a few chairs and towels should be included. We have rented houses for the past 20 years including several beach houses and this was a first. This is my only negative comment I can make. It is a beautiful home!

Very nice place to stay

Pros: nice layout, clean, great location Cons: Ant problem in the sandy areas (some got into my daughters car even though she parked a good 5-6 feet from sand area), saw several roaches on the porch and 3 inside the house.

Perfect Vacation Home

This property has everything you could possibly need for a beach vacation. Having the towels and linens provided were a definite plus. Beach chairs and lots of outside toys provided. The underneath porch area was perfect for the kids to pay in on rainy days and to be out of the sun. This is not our first time staying here and WON'T be our last. We loved it.

Great Family Vacation Getaway!

We LOVED this home away from home! That’s exactly what it was for our family. We had everything we needed right there even a crockpot! We have never stayed a whole week in Carolina Beach and it was wonderful! The house was clean and spacious and family friendly for our 3 kiddos. We really took advantage of the outside shower when the kids were covered from head to toe in sand at the end of the day! The neighbors were super nice as well as all the residents in the town. We can’t wait to plan our trip again for next year! Thank you to Jack and Nancy for sharing your home with us! We truly enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful, well appointed property with more than average parking space which was important due to having a boat! Oceanfront views were excellent and plenty of room inside and out!
