About this property

Historic Carolina Beach Cottage Across from Oceanfront & Screened Porch

This adorable cottage went from neglected to nurtured, and has turned into a little gem on the island. The beach access is right across the street (about 50 yards away). It has a coppertop roof, all new vinyl siding and a wraparound porch that is screened in, so you can people watch all day or enjoy relaxing on the 2 wicker couches.
The bedrooms boast a Queen bed each, plus a daybed. The walls in the living room have shiplap, the full size kitchen has floating shelves with subway tiles, and the baths have bead board, new vanities, and a full size washer dryer.
You have the whole lot to park cars, vans, boats, whatever. The Ocean Grill and Tiki Bar (the BEST restaurant/bar on a pier on the island) is right across the street. Thursday nights are always live music before the fireworks courtesy of the Town of Carolina Beach, and you can watch from the porch or view on the beach.

About the host

Hosted by Erin Maher

Host profile image
Erin is a New Orleans native and loves hospitality, home design, and spreading that Southern charm. Steve, her devoted partner, is a Virginia native, and has an incredible ability to run a small company by day, and turn into construction guy by night. They have several VRBO properties on Pleasure Island, and both always enjoy talking to their guests, sharing best spots, and helping out with guests' stays.

Why they chose this property

We were looking for something else, then eyeballed this house on a listing. We stopped, looked, and felt something. But were just not able to commit. Then, after about 3 months, saw it was still there (there was a contract that fell through), and decided to go for it. We loved it because of it's proximity to Carolina Beach Boardwalk, and the great Ocean Grille and Tikki Bar across the street. It's rare to find a piece of property on a highly desired piece of land that we could afford. So we sunk blood, sweat, tears into the project, because we both knew of its potential. Just needed a good facelift, make-over - lipstick if you will! We're so happy to share with guests that come as families to enjoy the beautiful beaches.

What makes this property unique

I love the screened porch, because of the breezes, sounds, and people that shuffle by.
I love the modern and historic feel of the rooms. I love how close the home is to the beach, gas station, restaurants, boardwalk, fireworks, etc.....
