I love this place. This is my second time this summer. It is a short five minute walk to the beach. The place has all the items needed for a short or long stay. It is convenient to everthing. Lots of great restaurants! I look forward to booking again next year!

The house was wonderful, everything was comfortable. Close enough to the beach to walk even with all the stuff you have to bring for the kids. We hated leaving! Our only issue was the screen door was broken when we arrived and even after contacting Vacasa, no one came to fix it so we didn’t utilize the porch while we were there because bugs could still get in.

We stayed for a week use our summer family vacation to visit our son that is stationed in Camp Lejune. He house size was perfect we are a family of four. My Marine had his girlfriend visiting and my youngest son brought a friend . The kitchen was perfect size with the open spaces it bigger than you can appreciate in the photos. It was so hot we hardly used the porch, but great central air conditioner . The best beach just two blocks from the public access it was beautiful . We won’t hesitate to rent this again if we decide to go there next summer. Thank you

This house was great for our one senior dog and our 2 year old that was adopted during the pandemic...so he does not do well away from his people. House itself was great, spacious, well stocked kitchen. The highlight is the screened porch where we probably spent 75% of our waking hours that were not on beach. Straight shot to public beach access and beach was not busy during weekdays. The house was not as clean at check in as some others we have stayed in, but local management did reach out monday and offer to send cleaning crew back out....we declined because that was just not worth it after we had cleaned up and moved all our stuff in. Had a few maintenance issues that they sent people out for, which was inconvenient because we felt someone should stay with dogs if strangers would be coming in and out. But it is to be expected....locals work M-F and difficult to nail down an appt time through vacasa. We understood. Overall, great house for our needs.

Beware that this isn’t a VRBO owner to guest rental if that’s what you are looking for. The property is managed by a global vacation property management company. The overall stay was great however beware of the host company’s policy for item left behind which is as follows: - Cleaning service removes items left behind from the property. - no on notifies you - you pay $25 plus tax to perform a search for your item in addition to any shipping costs. - if you don’t pay within two weeks then they own your items.

Cozy, coastal, light and airy beach cottage! My family, my sister and niece really enjoyed our beach trip to the Carolina Cottage near the Surf City canals. From the screened in porch to the beach was ONLY a 2 block walk! It was perfect! We were able to enjoy the sunrise, beautiful weather all week, the sunsets and of course we were able to see the first turtle release of the 2023 season as well as see multiple turtle nests. We prepared several meals at the house, which was stocked with cooking supplies/utensils that we could cook with. Plenty of spacious kitchen cabinets and countertop/ prep area as well as being well lit! There was plenty of seating areas for everyone to be together or alone, whatever their choice was. Thank you for allowing us to stay in a cottage away from home.
