True North was an awesome place. The owner was very helpful. We were very impressed with the area. The Snow's Cut boat ramp is just a short walk away. Carolina Beach State Park or the Carolina Beach Boardwalk is about a 6 minute drive away. You definitely get your money's worth with this location. We are already looking forward to staying there again.

We stayed here for our annual fishing trip. The place was clean, cute, and the owners were in touch but didn't hover. We loved the loft. We had an exciting first night when the humidity made one of the canvas prints fall off the wall. Sorry to report, no ghosts for ghost enthusiasts.
Thanks for letting us stay at your place. We will be recommending this rental to others.

This was a super clean, updated, cozy little get away. The
neighborhood was very quite....we loved all the boats turning at the corner to go to the boat ramp. It had everything we needed & our doggies loved it. Only two things I would like to mention is 1) There is some metal type holder sticking out of pole as you go up stairs closest to parking lot. With not much light, my mom ran right into it hard with her shoulder. You might want to get that taken down. Other is maybe more comfy chairs to sit in on the porch. Again we loved our stay and hope to come back!!

Amy was very helpful the property was exactly as the listing made it sound. No surprises. Very quiet neighborhood with little traffic on the street. The condo was well stocked with all the essentials with close by shopping and restaurants. Will be looking to do it again in the future.

We had such a great time staying at True North for the past few days. The space was perfect for me, my husband and our 2 dogs. The pictures are true to the space and I think it’s actually more spacious than I expected. The neighbors were friendly and the neighborhood is nice & quiet. It was nice to take the short walk to the boat ramp and enjoy the scenery. The check in/out process was very easy and efficient and we had great communication with the host. Thank you Amy & Brandon for our beautiful stay!

I decided to change the scenery for my WFH situation and packed my pup up and headed to Carolina Beach! True North was the perfect size and felt so much like home. The neighbors were super kind and the location made walking my dog even better. True North is not far from the marina where I spent most mornings and evenings.
This condo does not sit on the beach, however it’s not far at all. While many people complain about paying for parking, I didn’t mind driving to the boardwalk to visit the beach.
Amy is the best host and was highly communicative! I’m happy I got to experience their amazing property and hospitality!

So glad we picked this place!
Hands down 6 stars! This was a much needed getaway for us, and was absolutely perfect for a beach weekend. The bikes were a HUGE perk, we literally didn't move the truck or pay for parking the whole weekend. All you need is a backpack and a small cooler and you're set for the beach. Walking or biking distance to the grocery store and Walgreens, beach, and restaurants. We so appreciated the water and snacks upon arrival, and checking in was super easy. The ice maker is awesome too! True North is immaculate, tastefully decorated and well maintained, and the location is perfect for beach, dining, shopping, boating. The neighbors are quiet and friendly. Parking is easy and convenient and the neighborhood is quiet. We do vacation rentals quite often to make a long distance military relationship work, and True North is absolutely on our list of top 3 stays. We will absolutely come back if we're in the area again!

Weekend Getaway
The rental was wonderful. Clean, cozy, great TV options, snacks etc. The trails right next to the dwelling is a wonderful surprise for both human and hound; the river is an added luxory. I wish the beach had been a bit closer, but having the state park right there was great.
I recommend this rental to all!
Thank you!

Carolina Beach Getaway
We had a very lovely time at Carolina Beach! Amy and Brandon were very gracious hosts, that provided excellent communication. This spot has every detail to make it special, and the location was perfect for us for hiking and canoeing. We just stayed two nights, but would have happily stayed many more! Thanks so much for sharing this space with us!!

great stay at pleasure island
The condo was lovely. Our hosts were welcoming and helpful.They made us feel like family. From the lovely linens, to the tastefully decorated space.
We received a book on where the nice places were to visit.The condo is only 10 minutes fr Kure Beach and 4 or 5 min to Carolina Beach. Shopping...a hop skip and a jump. My husband and the boys went fishing. Caught a few bass.Made his day. Plus theres a lovely walking boat dock behind the building. It was lovely at night. We'd go back there in a NY minute.
