About this house rental

Named after the stunning creek just off the intercoastal it sits on, Whiskey Creek is a charming 4-bedroom waterfront retreat that offers a secluded serene getaway or time alone to enjoy the water views and Live Oak tree in the wind. The home sits nestled amongst live and water oaks tucked away to relax in your own little world.

Disclaimer: Swimming, standing, or wadding in the water near or around the house/dock is forbidding.

This property is a 25-minute drive to Wrightsville Beach where you can find world class surfing, local events and concerts, the Wrightsville Beach Municipal Park, fresh seafood, and a vibrant nightlife. Carolina Beach is a 20-minute drive from the house and is famous for shopping on the boardwalk, the North Carolina Aquarium, Fort Fisher State Park, and sumptuous dining.

Bring or rent a boat, paddle boards or kayaks and launch them at the nearby neighborhood boat ramp and leave them on the dock for the week for easy access to the Intracoastal Waterway or Masonboro Island! The large backyard with the looming Live Oak Tree overlooks the peaceful creek making it the perfect place to spend any seasonal nights with friends and family. Build a fire in the Solo Stove and enjoy the beautiful days or nights reminiscing on memories while making smores. This beautiful lot provides plenty of space to create more memorable times together.

If you rent or bring your own boat or water crafts (ie jet ski) there will be a $500 dock fee with a maximum of 2 water crafts allowed. We will also need proof of insurance for each water craft.

At the heart of this property, you’ll find an open family/kitchen space that benefits by gorgeous natural light flowing in from the massive sliding windowed doors that fill the walls. To one side, a large couch faces a sizable flat-screen TV, while behind that is a dining area that offers seating for eight. Adjacent, is a large kitchen with all the necessities needed to prepare meals throughout the week. There is ample countertop space on the breakfast bar and which provides bar stool seating for six. Not only is the main living space a prime location for taking in the stunning marsh view, the room over from it holds an open entertainment space and features a foosball table, arcade games, a fireplace, flat-screen TV, and sliding glass doors that open up to the backyard deck. There is a sleeping nook beside the window with one twin-sized bed. An additional sleeping area can be found off of the game room with one twin-sized bed. These two sleeping spaces are not private, as they do not have doors that can be shut off from the rest of the house.
Proceed down the hallway to find three additional bedrooms. The master suite has a king-sized bed, walk-in closet, TV and en suite bathroom with dual vanities and a walk-in shower. Down the hall is the second bedroom, which has two twin-sized beds, TV and walk-in closet. A full bathroom is located nearby which is shared with the third bedroom. This room has a queen-sized bed, TV and two walk-in closets. An upstairs loft area has a full over full bunk and a twin, sleeping a total of 5. There is third full shower-only bathroom located near the kitchen.

Fantastic gem on Whiskey Creek.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2025
We were looking for a reunion spot for 8 people and to host other cousins for a dinner. The house was laid out perfectly for that. The live oak, the dock and the water are beautiful. My cousin is looking to rent it next.

Wonderful layout for an event with view at the water's edge, the live oak tree and for overnight guests! We so enjoyed our daughter's catered dinner reception in the backyard. Our amazing host helped make our celebratory evening, and our stay, the very best it could be from answering questions to providing extra help. We highly recommend for events of any kind!

Beautiful property, the live oaks are amazing. Plenty of space for a large family. Dock is super easy to get in/out even @ low tide. Great location on the water. Good communication with the owner. Make sure to be honest if you are planning on having a party. Look at the limits. Also make sure to read and provide info if bringing your boat down. Park in the designated areas. There is still plenty of parking on the property, just park in the correct areas. We had a wonderful weekend. Loved the house and being on the water.. Thanks for a wonderful weekend and making great memories.
