We had a wide range of ages stay at this home (from 2yrs to 5ish) and WE ALL ENJOYED IT. Great amount of space for the kids to play around also! Not to mention - the SUPER SHORT WALK to the beach! We enjoyed our stay and everything that the host had to offer within the home, plus great communication. Thank you for hosting us :)

Cozy, pet-friendly house, great walkable neighborhood close to beach.

Traveling in from fort Campbell, fort Belvoir & fort bragg!awesome weekend everything was on point had all amenities, provided coziness, the deck, outside shower, washer and drier, and the distance to the beach is literally right there! My family were very relaxed & fulfilled! Thank you!

close to the beach and everything else - little doll house that is bigger than it looks - enjoyed having practically no steps- thumbs up!!!

Fantastic little house that had everything we needed. Owner was very responsive and accommodating. The proximity to beach access makes enjoying the beach a breeze!

We had a great time during out stay at this house! We had 9 people and there was plenty of space for all of us to relax and enjoy ourselves. The house is located just one block from a public beach access so we could just walk back and forth whenever we wanted. The house was very well-stocked with dishes, linens, cooking supplies and paper goods. When we had a need, Erin was quick to respond. Another nice thing was the garage attached to the house where we could easily store sandy beach items. The outdoor shower was also a big bonus! We had a great time and definitely recommend this house for anyone wanting a fun and relaxing vacation at the beach!

Very cute house, well cared for. A very short block from the beach - easy walk.

Great location, nice yard to play in, and everything we needed was in the house. Would repeat!

Wilmington and surrounding were once my home for many years and I met my late husband there. We married and had our first place there in 2003. He passed suddenly, so I brought our 3 children and my mother back for a long trip down memory lane and this was the best home base that we could have asked for. My mom is elderly and isn't as able to move around as she used to be, so staying in a hotel with long hallways or a multi-story house with steps would have been terrible. It is close to the beach, Island Market, the golf cart rental kiosk, and Kure Beach Pier. Easy walking distance, super easy biking distance, and since we went with a golf cart to save gas on the island, everything was fast to get to. Beach access is free after 5pm during the season and there are cart spaces. The deck was our hang out spot and there is not much shade, but there is a table with an umbrella. If I were to make suggestions to the owners, one would be to install a mister system along the roofline above the back door, but that creates a new set of rules and maintenance. The patio string lights are no longer there and what looked like a fire pit is now filled in with flowers. All of which was fine for us. There was one digital clock in the kitchen, so if you're used to a device such as an Alexa or Google, you'll have to bring one. I would say that another suggestion would be to install an Echo Show, that people can't remove, to speak to loved ones, hear the weather, etc. Oh, and I did buy a wire wisk and left it in the kitchen drawer. My 8 and 11 year-olds stayed in the former sunroom and were very comfortable. My 14 year-old was also super happy in her room with the day bed and desk. There is a difference in the mattresses in the two larger bedrooms. I took the middle room with adjoining, shared bathroom. It was very soft. My mother took the bedroom with the private bath near the rear entrance, and the mattress was firm. They suited our needs, just know there is a difference. The house was very clean (!!!), but this is the coast and we have critters that the owner clearly does their level best to control. We saw several palmetto bugs, which are coastal cockroaches. 4 alive in the house, 1 dead, and of course, many outside. There was also a small snake and a mouse by the trash cans. This is normal, but be aware with kids at the coast. Mine are mini Steve Irwins, but the adults may want to handle the trash. The artwork is beautiful and the house is comfortable and cozy.

Great location, beautifully decorated, plenty of space, nice deck, close to the beach

Our stay was brief but relaxing and we loved our time away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The quaint cottage was just the ticket and we had enough room to spread out and relax. I loved the bold color of the house and that's what most attracted me to the property. The inside was just as quaint. Great weekend overall!!! Thank you for sharing your home with us.

love the cottage, all i wanted, except the beach :( the enormous pipe across, from left to right as far as you can see hopefully this beach will be returned to its natural beauty soon wonderful sleep & stay, thumbs up :)

Place was in great condition and had everything needed for the long weekend stay. We were a block from the beach with public access. Very nice outside area to relax and the house had plenty of beds to fit the family. Would stay again!

Great location, one block off the beach. Sleeps 6 or more easily.

This was the perfect rental for our family of 1 grandmother, 2 adult siblings, 1 spouse, and 2 teenagers. Very short walk to the beach, pier, bar, and restaurants. One level. Kitchen with just about everything we needed. Very clean. Big dining table to seat all of us. 2 entrances. 2 bathrooms. The property owner was a delight to work with and very responsive. She provided many recommendations for local spots. Everything was perfect. I have zero complaints. We will definitely be back to stay here again!

Nice renovated beach house. Good for a small family get away and a close walk to the beach.

Great location, one block from the beach. Fit our family perfectly. Boogie boards and cart to carry stuff to the beach was an extra perk!

Cute home. Looks better inside than outside :) Short walk to public beach access. About a block. Some places still not open and some only open part time. No beach toys, beach towels, bring them with you.

1. My reservation was made for a party of 12 but after that and before check in, the property was updated to sleep 8. The owner made calls after 10 pm to remind me to put trash outside but could not inform me about the inability to accommodate 4 people from my party. After complaining to Vrbo, the owners response was that she could have offered air beds had I told her about the problem. A. Why would I have to sleep on air bed after paying thousands of $s? B. Why isn’t that communication proactive? I had to find a hotel in the middle of the night. So much so for a vacation. C. It was a reunion of 3 families but we ended up staying at separate places and had to spend half the time shuttling between the hotel and the property. Totally wasted effort. D. Even if we did get air Beds there wasn’t enough space to put that in. 2. Do not get misled by the first picture showing the beach access. There are 2 roads to cross (one of them a major one) before one can access the beach. The property description does call out that the property is a block from the beach but the picture makes it look like there is an access from the property directly to the beach but that is inaccurate and just added to lure travelers. 3. At check in, we were greeted with dead roaches on the master bedroom. Also, the property was not in liveable condition with the wooden floor severely damaged, resulting in splinters for several people. We had to buy and wear indoor shoes to save our soles. Very poor maintenance overall. 4. The owner will call at all odd hours, be prepared.

Our family loved this beach house and how close it was to the beach! We will certainly try to rent here again!

Great beach cottage for 2 families to hang out before and after moving our boys into UNCW. We grilled steaks, played cards, enjoyed the beach, ocean, outdoor shower, comfy beds, TV, sofas, patio, and walking to the pier, restaurants and arcade. A great setting for launching our boys. Host was helpful and place was perfect.

The location was a good distance from the pier and beach. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. Overall lovely but sadly the wifi password that was provided did not work for us even after many attempts to connect to wifi.

We needed a single level location on the beach. Traveling with 9 family members - my 77-year-old father with walking issues, all the way to our three-year-old daughter with endless energy. The space was perfect. We had teenage boys that were able to flop on beds, and adults able to cave off in bedrooms. The space is adorably decorated, super convenient to the beach, quiet, and exactly what we needed for a post COVID family reunion of sorts. We would absolutely stay here again. Erin communicated well prior to our trip, stopped by during our trip to make sure everything was as we needed, and followed up with any questions we had during the stay. We read some prior reviews about bringing extra toiletries like shower soap and toilet paper. We brought extra but also didn’t ask if it would be provided/restocked during the stay. Erin is so nice I’m sure she would have but we just came prepared. After traveling with 9 people, my husband and I need a vacation from our vacation so we hope to be back soon! :)
