About this house rental
Our home is oceanfront in Carolina Beach, North Carolina. It is an older style cottage built in the 1940's and we added a third floor and renovated in 2003. Complete renovation in spring 2020.
There are great views with beautiful porches and decks overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. In the Spring of 2008, the ground floor was added to the rental making it a full house rental. Full kitchen was renovated on middle floor in 2011 with dishwasher and garbage disposal. All new appliances in 2020. Two master suites with mini fridge and coffee/tea bar in one. Bathrooms in the old part of the cottage were renovated with new tile showers in 2016.
The ground floor does have a separate entrance into a game room with a pool table. We recently added a spiral staircase leading to the middle floor. This floor has one queen bedroom and full bath. A theater room is located on the ground floor with a big screen smart TV, popcorn machine and fridge. A new front loading washer and dryer were added to this floor in 2020. There is a queen air mattress that can be used in the theater room to sleep 2 children.
The middle floor has a full kitchen and family room with a recently renovated open floor plan, one queen bedroom, and one full bathroom. The living area has a smart tv and a game/puzzle table and sectional sofa. The dining area has a large table with seating for 8-10., and additional bar seating for two. The kitchen is fully stocked and offers a large pantry area and adequate workspace. There is a wonderful open porch with rockers and a table/chairs for eating or playing games. There are two outdoor showers; an open shower on the walkway from the beach to rinse off sand, and a closed hot and cold shower to enjoy your daily shower.
The top floor has two large oceanfront King master suites with private baths. Each bedroom opens onto the top porch with a porch swing and loungers. You DO have to walk through one of the bedrooms to get to the interior stairs. There are exterior stairs off the porch as well.
The house will sleep 8 people in beds and two more on an air mattress.
This house is located on the north end of Carolina Beach, a quieter and more relaxing part of the beach. The Boardwalk, fishing pier and charter boats are all within walking distance. Enjoy the many restaurants, kid's activities, and just strolling on the beach! Bike, chair, umbrella and boat rentals are all within one mile of the house. There is a private deck and walkway to the beach, a brick grill and fireplace to cook out, and everything you need to have a wonderful relaxing vacation! There are free summer concerts each month, Sunday night family movies at the lake, Thursday night fireworks, as well as a wonderful Seafood Blues and Jazz Festival in October.
The NC Aquarium is a short drive as well as the USS NC Battleship Memorial and historic Wilmington! You can take a beautiful 30 minute ferry ride from Fort Fisher, just a few miles away, to Southport, another historic and beautiful town on the water. There are wonderful restaurants and antique shops in historic Southport. Come and enjoy our wonderful vacation home! We vacation there too, so you can count on it being well kept!

6 / 10Average·Oct 2021
The home was located in a quiet area, right on the beach, convenient to restaurants, bars and shopping. The upper porch was perfect to see the beautiful sunrises every morning. We really had no complaints about this home except the kitchen was not fully stocked as the owner described, i.e. no teapot or even a small pot to boil water. The pots in the kitchen were very worn and severely scratched on the surface. We found those to be unusable. The kitchen oven mitts were not cleaned and there was open food boxes left in the pantry that we had to throw away. The refrigerator shelf bars on the door kept falling off and the food kept falling on the floor when you opened the door. The third floor master bedroom had sand on the floor when we arrived. Shower door and shower liner really need to be scrubbed or replaced due to mildew. Needless to say we did not find the home to be as clean as we would have liked, especially when you pay a high cleaning fee. The owner did leave a number on the fridge to call the cleaners if there was an issue. However, we felt we should not have encountered these issues upon our arrival.
