About this house rental
Updated 1970's house, reminiscent of childhood vacations at the beach, provides a comfortable, relaxing home in a quiet south end neighborhood. Easy access makes it just a 2 minute walk to the beach and a hop and skip to view stunning sunsets over the sound. A bird sanctuary is a block away on the south tip of the island. Terns nest there during the summer. It's a great place for children to bike, scoot or skateboard on child friendly streets so between the beach, the sound, and the neighborhood, children can spend lots of time outside. Fully equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare fresh seafood dishes for a family meal. Open floor plan allows for ease of entertaining.
The 4 bedrooms supply 2 queen and 2 double beds with 2 full baths located between rooms. Enjoy ocean breezes while rocking in rocking chairs on the front porch, in the mornings with coffee, after a day at the beach with a beer or glass or wine, or star gazing at night. The carport entrance is covered in jasmine for delicious smells when it's blooming in June. Parking for up to 6 cars is a plus as parking on the side of the street is not allowed and guests can visit during the day without paying public parking fees. The house provides 2 TV's, wifi, dvd player, and a radio/CD player.
The utility room below supplies a washer and dryer, boogie board, skim board, sand toys and comfortable beach chairs. An outside charcoal grill makes it easy to cook while watching the sunset over the sound.
If you want to live a simple life of ease and relaxation on your vacation, this house and location is perfect.

Nancy's beach house had everything a family could possibly need for a fun and relaxing beach week. The kitchen was well stocked, the beach gear was organized and ready to go, and Nancy was extremely responsive when we had questions. The house is an older beach cottage, but it's very clean and well maintained. Thank you Nancy for an old-fashioned, peaceful beach week with our loved ones.

What an awesome stay. My family was visiting to celebrate my daughter’s graduation. The house was great! Really comfy, clean, and had everything we needed. Perfect location! Right at the beach, minutes from great food and shopping. Definitely a repeat stay! Owners were very nice and always responded quick to any questions. What a trip!

Very nice, quiet neighbor. Walking from one side to the other….beach to intercoastal waterway just minutes. Very nice front porch. Beach stuff, chairs, wagons. Bicycles to ride in neighborhood. Walking distance to oceanic restaurant/ pier but far enough to be quite. South end of beach is beautiful especially with calmer waters for swimming

We needed a place that was convenient to Wilmington, the airport, and something to give us a different vibe. This was perfect.

Easy access to house. Well furnished well lite house. Very comfortable. Owner easy to get a hold of....
One thing sheets and towels are NOT provided. The owner does tell you that in an obscure place ( my opinion). The owner does give you a name of a company that provides the sheets and towels but they do not put the sheets on..
Very cute and cozy place!

The pictures can make it seem a little antiquated, which it is, but it's a beautiful house. It is very spacious and has a lot to offer, and the location is very good. The only complaint is that somethings were a little bit dirty, such as the comforters or the mattress. Even so, the house is great for the price.

This was the perfect place for our two teams to call home while competing in the Lightning World Championships out of Carolina Yacht Club. Close, quiet and convenient. We enjoyed the camaraderie on the front balcony and grilling out (fresh caught fish) in the back yard, beach walks, sunrises, full moons and one spectacular thunderstorm.
4.7
Pros: House was great, beds very comfortable, water pressure/hot water was great, layout and well stocked large kitchen excellent, loved the porch and rocking chairs, great quiet street, neighbors very friendly, plenty of beach chairs and stuff, parking excellent. Overall excellent place to stay
Cons: BBQ grill unusable, dirty and rusted/buried under stuff; dishes left in drain board and dishwasher, couple dead bugs in bathroom.
Suggestions: 2nd refrigerator would be nice for 8 people, maybe on ground floor?

Perfect location! Three minute walk to the beach. Quiet street. Everything was as expected from the photos and description. Some of us preferred softer beds but everything was perfect.

Perfect location steps from the beach. Very quiet, especially at night. It's exactly what I was looking for. It's an amazing spot and I would definitely stay here again. We were asked to bring our own linens, which wasn't my favorite thing to do, but the price was very reasonable and the location is just absolutely perfect, so it seemed fair enough.

Lovely cottage
We loved the cottage and location. The owners created a wonderful environment for family and friends.

This was a great, very clean, house for my family and I. It fit the 6 of us, 4 adults and 2 children, perfectly. We had an issue of the a/c not working for a day but eventually got in touch with an owner and it came back on. We were refunded for that one night with no a/c. Overall we were happy with our stay. Lots of beach toys, chairs, in the utility closet to use. The house is on a very quiet street but a pretty street with a 5 min walk to the sound or beach. No sheets or towels provided so make sure your bring your own. I would rather use my own anyways so we had no issue!

Just what we needed
It was the perfect house and in a great location. Nancy had great communication throughout.

The house comfortably accommodated all nine of us. The location was great, on a quiet street close to both the beach and the intercostal. A great value for the money!

Great location, lots of fun extras for kids.
This house really does have everything you need. We really appreciated the extras for a smaller children: a stepstool in the bathroom, a hand-held shower attachment in the kid’s bathroom and lots and lots of extra toys downstairs. We had one day that was pretty rainy and we were able to entertain our three and a half year old the carport and on the deck. He especially loved the little wheelbarrow! We hadn’t stayed on this side of the island and it was just beautiful. The beach area between the two jetties almost looks tropical, the water is smoother and there are lots of shells to find. Walkability to the beach so nice, as is the intercoastal boat ramp/lookout - each only two short blocks away! Yes, the house is outdated as far as finishings but it does have everything you need and the bedrooms are restful. I liked the bamboo blinds with white curtains! Overall, our stay was great!

Great Vacation
We really enjoyed the home, but was disappointed to find that we needed to provide our own sheets and towels. This wasn’t made apparent in the initial online listing. We also were disappointed to find a roll and a half of toilet paper for 8 adults for 5 days. Had to go out and grab our own. Other than that, the house is a great location in relation to the island restaurants and beach access!

Great location and everything we needed was at the house. Will definitely be back!

Very pleased
The property was in a great location on the south end, with beach access very close and less foot traffic than areas closer to the piers. The house was clean and had mostly anything you would need. The beds were not the most comfortable, but that is our only complaint. Will definitely stay there again!

Spring break
It was a last minute trip for spring break. It was a perfect location, very nice, and wonderful experience. Owner was very helpful and easy to contact!

Located on quiet side street, very short walk to inland waterway and beach (the less crowded end). House itself was a little run down but as advertised. Dishwasher and refrigerator looked relatively new/updated. Well stocked kitchen. Plenty of beach chairs/toys and indoor toys, games, books provided. Comfortable mattress (on the firm side, which husband and I appreciated) Cleaning crew, maintenance was a bit lacking - when we arrived there was still sand and hair in both showers, a broken glass in the cupboard and screen in one of bedrooms was half-torn out. Also first VRBO property I stayed at where bath towels not provided, but made do with our beach towels. Neighboring houses very close so may not be the place to go if you are looking for privacy. Price was reasonable though and good time was had by all.
