Would highly recommend this place for a beach getaway! We loved every bit of it and hope to come back soon again!

The property was as advertised. There are numerous minor maintenance issues such as door and sink fixtures were loose to falling off, holes in the screens or missing screens, broken windows, missing light fixtures, and loose boards on the back porch. A little TLC could resolve those issues. The biggest issue we had was a horrible smell of something dead as soon as we walked into the house, to find a dead, rotting crab beside the computer desk. There were also mice that ate anything left on the counters every night. The location is amazing as it is close to the beach but away from the crowds for quiet evenings. The yard and water access was nice. The beds are all very comfortable but the adjoining bedrooms were a little awkward. I would recommend this house if the issues were all corrected, but probably would not return myself.

The place was exactly as described. Very clean! There were a couple hiccups but after communicating (with quick response) with the owner they were quickly addressed!! Definitely recommend! Parts of the house however are not for the very tall! My husband (6’3”) had a hard time in the shower and kitchen but nothing that would keep us from ever booking a return visit! Really enjoyed being able to dish from our backyard!! Our family of four fit comfortably for the week with plenty of space to have some quiet time as well without feeling cramped on top of one another!!

Our stay was amazing!! The house was so inviting and great location!! We will be returning!

I was a great stay.

We were very pleased to find a king bed in the main bedroom so listing was better than expected!!!! Loved the view and the perfect weather too.

The location/view was amazing.. if the review was solely based on that I could give ten stars… But….. The property needs a lil love. The screens at both the front and rear doors were ripped/detached allowing insects( and the occasional lizard) to get in.. The furniture, while unique, wasn’t the most comfortable and the table on the deck was entirely unusable. The biggest issue was the bed in the master. Was it comfortable? It was, very. Was it almost impossible to get onto? It was. The bed is very very tall making it nearly impossible for anyone who may be short (or with any type of mobility issues for that matter) to easily get onto the bed without some kind of assistance. I feel that information should be part of your property description.

We all loved our stay. The house was great and in a quiet location. Loved being able to walk out the back door and able to fish anytime I wanted. We sat around the fire pit at night and just relaxed and talked. That is something we just don’t take time for anymore. I would stay here again.

Owner was extremely easy to work with, did not encounter any issues with the property. The location was wonderful, the neighborhood (& neighbors) were very nice, Oct weather was wonderful. I'll be back! My son loved it and may try to buy it! (JK...a little). Kitchen had EVERYTHING needed + and the beds were so comfortable. Enjoyed the fishing, rented a boat and had a blast and the cool weather was perfect for a fire at night. ***** Retirement can't come fast enough!

This was such a beautiful, very clean, spacious & welcoming home! Definitely plan to stay again if available & would highly recommend to persons of interest. Overall fun inside home or outside fishing.

This had everything my family needed for a comfortable stay.

This is our third stay in the Fish Camp and it was just as amazing as ever. The house is very comfortable with a well equipped kitchen and lovely spaces for relaxation both inside and outside with a nice porch and screened in area near the water. We love being on the sound but also love that access to the island and the waves are very close and easy to get to from the house. I really cannot say enough good things about this property — we love it and will definitely be back for a fourth visit when we can!!

I feel that the purpose of reviews is to provide other potential consumers information to consider as they make their choices and that is the spirit with which I write this review, to provide information based on the experience and opinion of my family. This would probably not be an ideal location for fellow tall families (two of us are right around 6’). The shower heads, mirror levels and light fixture in the middle of the kitchen are at levels that require consistent stooping, crouching, dodging or contorting (as in washing your hair in the shower). This would be a good place for families who travel light as there are no closets and minimal surface space or storage. The wall hooks in the master bedroom provided a place to hook items but if you want to hang anything bring your own hangers. The owner has provided many towels which came in handy as we needed one to provide extra friction in order to keep the bathroom door closed. But bring extra washcloths, we could only find 3. There are no exhaust fans in either bathroom, if you like hot showers be prepared for that to add to the overall heat and humidity in the home as you will need open the bathroom doors to the rest of the house in order for the mirror to defog or be able to cool down enough to get dressed. For that reason and because it takes so long for the accumulated standing water to drain out of the tub, this house might not work well for families that plan on back-to-back showers. Be aware of the potential for that standing water as the bathroom is so dimly lit that you may not see it until you go to turn the water on. Lighting was also scarce in the secondary bedroom where there were only lamps and the overhead lighting did not work. If you try to move the couch to avoid neck strain from watching TV at the weird angle, watch out for what seems to be a poor repair of a weakened floor under the couch. No matter how we tried to reduce the frequency of opening the doors, there was no reducing the number of annoying gnats and other small flying things that were inside the home. Because of those and the crawly things we dealt with the owners may want to consider pest control or ensuring all openings are sealed. Sealing openings could also reduce the sewage smell that was ever present. I’m glad there are so many other glowing reviews and that is has been such a positive experience for other families, it just wasn’t a great fit for us.

We enjoyed this quirky flat. Handy location. Helpful, friendly owner.

This was our 5th stay at this property. It's close to everything yet nestled on a quiet street. A whole back yard of grass leading to the water. That's rare. A place for a fire, a hammock, amazing sun rises, excellent fishing/crabbing, a super comfy king sized bed in the master, a kitchen with everything you need, plenty of spots for everyone to sleep, lots of seating, two full bathrooms, a washer & dryer, a dining room table, an outdoor patio and the list goes on & on. I've never had a bad experience here. Did I mention it's amazing?!

we loved how this house was decorated(vintage items) and had a wonderful family vacation for fishing, crabbing and of course close by beach too.

Quaint, clean, more than enuf room for 4 adults. Short walk to the water for fishing and nice screened in area at the shed with a hammock for relaxing. The host could not have been better.

Cute and kitchy spot in a cute location with solid crabbing, fully stacked kitchen

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Fish Camp. The house was completely stocked with everything you could ever need for the perfect vacation. The scenery off of the back deck was very relaxing, looking at the sound and the boats going by. The host, Justin, was great to work with, too! We had a great time, and this will be on our list to visit again in the future!

This place had everything we needed for a quick weekend trip. We would definitely stay here again.

The veiw was great, fishing was good.

We have been staying at this property for several years in a row. It's really become our happy place. It's quirky, it's inviting, comfortable, well furnished with every thing you'd need (including things like oil for cooking, plenty of pots and pans, a coffee maker, washer/ dryer, etc.), and such a wonderful ambiance. Close drive to the beach, restaurants, and stores. Beautiful view of the ICW. Gorgeous sunsets. My husband and I love everything about this little gem, we can't wait to come back every year.

Was a relaxing place....kids enjoyed it.

We had a great time while staying here. Our guys loved being able to fish in the back yard. Even the little one. The view is amazing! The house was perfect for the five of us.

My husband and I had a nice stay. The cabin was much bigger than the listing made it seem. Would definitely have been comfortable sharing with another couple. The location was very close to bridge to topsail so we had easy access. The screened in porch attached to shed was great to keep bugs away and still enjoy the view. Would stay here again

Two friends and I spent three restful nights at this property. The beds were super comfy (even the futon) and bathrooms, clean, with plenty of extra towels. Access to the island as well as the bigger roadways leading into and out of the general area couldn't have been easier. The decor is eclectic with something to look at and wonder about wherever you turn. We also enjoyed a lovely brunch out on the back deck one morning, just needed to lay down a tablecloth and select seating with a bit of caution. The check-in/check-out procedures were easy and straightforward and the hosts were communicative and extremely easy to reach. We did have to give some of the kitchenware and appliances a good scrub before using and, while kitschy and labeled in some instances, the lighting situation was a little tricky to figure out. Overall, however, we had a pleasant stay and settled in pretty quickly to our home away from home for the long weekend.

We enjoyed our stay very clean and unique place to stay every needed was available very close to all things to do.

The moment we walked in, it was just like home. Relaxing and safe. Clean and charming. The property was exactly as it was advertised. Julie was responsive and polite. My husband and I are already planning our return visit!

We had so much fun it was conveniently located, and enjoyed being able to fish there.

Decor of antiques displaced was unique and brought back a lot of memories.
