About this house rental

Welcome to "Carolina Joy"! This single family, 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home is located on the north end of Carolina Beach. A 30' boat slip and amazing views of the sound make this property the perfect spot for your next family vacation! Owner uses left side of boat slip. Guest should use right (South) side of boat slip. There is a brand new 16' x 16' gazebo with lights and furniture, along with 30 amp shore power. Note that the dock was extended to allow for 2 extra feet of water depth.

The great room of this house features vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams and a charming open floor plan that floods the living space with natural light. The new owners are also updating furniture throughout. You can enjoy sound front views and watching boaters navigate the waterway from the beautiful kitchen that boasts a cozy rustic décor. The kitchen overlooks the living room and a dining area that leads out to a generous screened in porch with panoramic views of the canal. A small desk enables travelers that need to work remotely a great workspace with a relaxing back drop. Just imagine sipping your morning coffee and watching a pod of dolphins swim by or dining at the outdoor table with a spectacular sunset dazzling on the water.

The spacious primary bedroom features a new mattress for the Queen-sized bed, beautiful stained-glass accents and a Jacuzzi tub that overlooks the water. Guests of this room will appreciate the on suite bathroom, TV, and direct access to the screened porch. Two additional Queen guest bedrooms with private bathrooms are sure to please your family and friends. The partially fenced in backyard gives a great space for outdoor entertainment. Make sure to bring your yard games – there is plenty of space for volleyball, cornhole, badminton, and grilling. There is a large area underneath the home that is ideal for shaded relaxation and provides an enclosed outdoor shower.

Fishermen will certainly appreciate the boathouse and pier. A public boat ramp is conveniently located just around the corner and there is ample parking for your boat trailer on the side of the house. Some guests rent gas golf carts to ride up to the beach or up to our legendary Carolina Beach Boardwalk where you find shops, restaurants, and an abundance of summer activities such as fireworks, carnival rides and live music.

Make plans today for a lifetime of memories! This home is close by Freeman Park so if you have a four-wheel drive vehicle, bring it. This is one of the few beach areas where you can actually drive out onto the beach.

Property was advertised as fenced in backyard and no fence was there. Sprinklers went off all week, day and night.

This is our second time staying at this property in the last year or so. We love Carolina Beach and try to come down a couple of times a year for 6+years now. To date, this home is our favorite! Clean, well maintained and fully stocked with needed items. Felt comfortable and welcoming. Pet friendly too! The views are awesome of the canal. Highly recommend this vacation home!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Right from the start. The 2 bedroom had dirty mattress covers so we washed. Then one mattress had some blood stains and it looked to be urin stains so we flipped and the other side only a little better. That bed was never used. The other mattress was flipped because it had some stains. The tvs only were good for movies or older channels. We never got local new or national. Someone left grapes on the desk and clothiers in the hamper.

Been going to this house for several years. Love this place on the water. Needs a new sofa in living room. The fenced in yard was great for our dog. Can’t wait to go again!

Beautiful house and great customer service
Beautiful house and great customer service
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great customer service - Jamie was helpful and always quick to respond. The house was lovely, clean, and the kitchen wares (pots, pans, utensils) were well-stocked. Fenced in backyard was perfect for the dogs. Quiet with beautiful views of the lake. Close to Freeman, the aquarium, and boardwalk. Only issues were that the couch is less than comfortable, the TVs had limited functionality, and there were no trash bags (which isn't something you'd think to bring). All in all, it was a great trip, and I'll definitely start my search with Bryant for our next trip to the shore. Thank you!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were fortunate to have the warm front come through during our week between Christmas and New Years. The best part of this house is the expansive screened porch along the backside of the house, overlooking the waterway. There are large windows also across the backside of the house, affording pleasant views from living/dining/kitchen area. This is a dog-friendly house and as such there are always compromises. There are small issues with the house interior. Slightly annoying but nothing overt (light bulbs out, toilets running, storm door won't latch,5 tea kettles but worst coffee maker ever!, etc.) - that a visit from a handyman couldn't rectify. There should be a sign on the front door to "mind the step down" - each of us (and the dog) tripped on the way in! The 3 bedrooms are very large. Pay attention to high tide. The last 2 days the street was entirely under water and we couldn't leave until the water receded - the road was closed. This doesn't happen daily, as the first 5 days were fine. The walk to the beach is a few easy blocks away. Overall we really did enjoy our stay.

Charming, Private and Perfect
Charming, Private and Perfect
Truly a hidden gem. Off the main beaten path, this home is a private oasis. We loved the backyard, dock and screened-in porch. The open kitchen / living room was great for watching over kids and being together as a family. The furniture is dated and uncomfortable inside, but who stays inside at the beach? Had some water bugs on the first day but the management company sprayed immediately, thank you for being prompt! Overall great home, would recommend.
