Stayed at the Bug House with my adult children and it was great! Great location and we loved the outdoor spaces. Jeanette was very responsive with my questions. Our only issue was the beds weren’t quite as comfortable as we had hoped. Otherwise, a great place for our week at the beach!!

Sunset Beach never disappoints and neither did the Bugg House. We feel fortunate to have stayed in such a beautiful and well loved home for two weeks this summer. We’ll be back. Thanks Buggs!

This was the perfect beach house for our annual family vacation to sunset. Great location to beach access, outdoor shower, lots of outdoor seating and the entire house was nicely decorated. It was comfortable and inviting. Easy to check in and the host checked in a couple times to ensure everything was ok and a reminder that the trash went out. Would highly recommend the Bugg house and we hope to stay here again!

Enjoyable week. Easy contact with owners. Would rest again, but at beginning of summer. Several small repairs needed. Master bedroom not as nice as online photo. No pantry or cabinet storage in kitchen for groceries. Tough with a family of 8. Other amenities nice. Upgrades in baths welcomed. We enjoyed kayaking, crabbing and fishing in the canal. Town of Sunset Beach and Calabash enjoyable.

Our Family had a wonderful week at The Bugg House! We enjoyed our mourning coffee on the top deck with the view of the ocean. In the evening we would sit up there and feel the ocean breezes and hear the waves…so peaceful. The house has everything you need. And a great flow to it. Very roomy. It was so nice to be on the canal and take the kayaks out. The best part is that it’s just a quick walk to the beautiful beach!!! Thank you! The Schoenborn Family

Great location. Loved the house. Perfect for our family.

Loved the outdoor spaces available to us. Kitchen was well stocked. Rooms were comfortable and accurately depicted on the web site. Great location. Would definitely rent again.

Really enjoy the location and the house was perfect.

The house was beautiful; the location was fantastic. Canoeing and kayaking on the canal was magical. The whole experience was stress-free. I would rent The Bugg House again in a heartbeat!

We love this beach for so many reasons and have stayed in many houses. The Bugg House is perfectly located and had plenty of space.

This house provides a very relaxing environment and the location on the canal and closeness to the beach is terrific. Though not new, the house is very clean, tidy and comfortable. Enjoy the kayaks and canoe on the canal, start gazing on the decks, and the well stocked kitchen and beach equipment (mainly the ability to take things to the beach in the buggy provided). We are repeat visitors to the Bugg house, and would gladly return!

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at The Bugg House. Plenty of inside and outdoor space. Our favorite spot was the screened porch every morning for coffee and catching up. I can’t wait to stay here again in the future.

Everything about our stay was perfect! The house had everything we needed and the location was perfect. We will be back again!

The house is beautiful and the homeowners were attentive to any questions or concerns we had while staying there. Very close to the beach.

Rental procedures were simple and easy to complete. Conversations with the property owner was very professional and questions were answered quickly. Thanks

The Bugg House was a beautiful house in a great location on Sunset. It had comfy beds, a nice kitchen, gorgeous living room, and you could not beat the location. Very close to the ocean and right on a canal where you could step out onto a dock to go kayaking. The owners were friendly and good communicators. We were impressed with how everything was labelled for how to use (grill, canoe/kayak, wifi, TV, etc.). Also brand new kitchen cabinets and countertops showed the owners wanted to keep the place spruced up! Our only small complaint was that the closet of 'free to use' beach stuff (chairs/lifejackets/etc.) were well-used and rusty.

Great house and location. Nice layout. Close to the beach and on the canal. Left my small boat at the dock and found the canal to be navigable except at dead low tide. House is well appointed and comfortable. We had a minor issue w/ the cleaners and owners resolved it quickly and fairly. Would rent again.

We really enjoyed the property. The property is conveniently located near the beach - short walk to beach access. The house is great. We have visited Sunset for many years now and this home was one of the best maintained properties we've stayed at. We will definitely consider this property for future visits.

This house has a great layout for a family, with the master bedroom on the first living level and three more bedrooms on the second living level. The house was clean and well supplied. It has almost everything you need including kitchen stuff (and Keurig coffee maker), tons of books, games and lots of movies. We enjoyed the kayaks and canoe as well as the beach chairs. Breakfast was in the shade on the front deck and happy hour was in the shade on the back deck (overlooking the canal). We also did a cookout with the weber grill. Almost best of all was the convenience to the beach, like a two minute walk. The house was well decorated and very homey with comfortable couches and chairs and a large living room table large enough to hold our 1000 piece puzzle. With three decks, several TV's, the puzzle table, and the beach we could each do our own thing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bugg House.

Location right on the canal perfect for kayaking out to the intercostal waterway!

My family and I just stayed at Bugg House and found it homey and very comfortable. It reminded us of someone's home rather than a rental. By that, I mean that it was well-equipped and decorated in a way that reminded me of visiting a cousin or aunt. Not sterile at all, this home has all sorts of touches of home (ladybug decor as a nod to the Bug(g) last name, pics of their family, lots of art and kids' art, etc) and it's laid out in a way to facilitate community and activity. We particularly loved the many decks and porches. With several teens with us, it was great to be able to spread out and have space in pairs or trios across the property. Most noteworthy for us was the fact that the house has porches on both sides of the house, making shady spaces throughout the entire day. Coffee in the front, lunch and dinner in the back--it was perfect. And the house is set back a bit more than the other houses on the street--closer to the canal--so, the views are spectacular and it feels a little more private. The kitchen is particularly well-stocked. We've stayed in countless under-stocked places at SB over the years and this was a welcome change. The beds were comfortable, as were the couches and deck chairs. The washer and dryer are oversized which helps in easily keeping up with towels and other items during vacation. In addition, the kayaks, canoe, dock, and board games left us with plenty to do. In summary, it's a beautiful home that provided us with just the right amount of rest and recreation options (frankly, they also provided other items we didn't have time to get to use). Also important--it's a short walk to either the 6th or 7th street beach accesses--3-4 minute walk to the beach at most. I recommend it without hesitation. Oh, and it's a much better price for the size and amentities than any other house we've rented at SB over the last couple of decades. If you're new to SB and looking for a quiet, beautiful family beach and beach home for a vacation, you've found it.

We loved this property! It was clean, spacious, close to the beach....just a wonderful place for us and our family. We had a wonderful time and can’t wait to go again!!

Very clean and good price for location

What a great find! We stayed at the Bugg House during Spring break with my teens and mother and truly enjoyed our 5 nights. The house was very cozy. Lots of space for everyone. I enjoyed the various decks available. Great view of the canal too. Kids enjoyed the kayaks, hammock and the short walk to the beach!! Jeanette was very accommodating and responded quickly to my questions and concerns. I will certainly come back! Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Me and my husband spent our 30th Wedding anniversary there and had a wonderful time. The house was great and having the dock to fish off was wonderful, we were hoping to take the kayaks out but weather was too cold. Would definitely recommend staying here.

We loved the Bugg house! Even in the winter the decks were great to sit out on and watch the birds fish in the canal and listen to the sounds of the ocean. We even took the Kayaks out with the added benefit of being one of the only families out on the water :) The house was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed having access to the games in the cupboard. Overall a great stay!

Beautiful home, well supplied, close to everything we needed.

I have been to Sunset Beach, North Carolina each year to visit family in the area but we have always stayed with family. Now having children, we decided to rent a beach home and we are so thrilled that we made that choice. The Bugg House is spacious, clean, and honestly, child-proof. The stairs were easy to navigate for my 17 month old and my 3 year old. The children were always in our view but there was never a time that we felt that they could be in danger. The house has plenty of rooms, bathrooms, porches, and amenities. We were comfortable at all times at the house. Having the back of the house on the canal was an amazing experience for my family. We fished and caught crabs daily. We saw plenty of wildlife from birds to jellyfish from the dock. My children were thrilled to see all of the wildlife. We also enjoyed the board games and the books that were supplied by the family. It made for nice evenings/nights that were spent with the family in relaxation. The owners were always available and within a phone call away. Checking in and out was very easy. Sunset Beach is the nicest beach that I have been to and I have been to quite a few beaches. The beach is even nicer when it is a short walk to the beach when you have a semi-private walkway from 6th Street (the entrance to the beach near the Bugg House). It is a 3 minute walk to the beach with children on a wooden walk way through the dunes which are packed with wildlife and plant life. Once you get to the beach, it is essentially a "choose wherever you would like to sit" beach because the 6th Street walkway is so private. The beach is amazing. All in all, this was my favorite vacation because it was my children's first vacation in a place that I love. The Bugg House met every one of our expectations and then surpassed them. It was such an enjoyable time at the house especially the down time when the children were napping. There were so many places to cozy up and read a book in the Bugg House or just sit back and relax. We plan on coming back next year and would love to stay in the same exact house because it was so welcoming.

House is comfortable, lots of beach related equipment, such as kayaks that made our stay fun.

We very much enjoyed staying at the Bugg house. It had so many fun things to take advantage of and we didn't even get to them all! It was comfortable and spacious and very conveniently located. Our hosts called us just after we got there to make sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again on another trip to beautiful Sunset Beach. Next time we'll take out the canoe!
