Kure Beach- Great Location - Lorraine's & Bec's Beach Houses

The two houses were perfect for our needs with having our dogs vacation with us. Great contact with the company! Houses were clean and in a great location! We would definitely stay here again. Pros: Location is great-Within one block of pier and ocean and about four blocks from local off leash dog park. Arcade very close by and small market directly behind home. Homes were relatively clean and had everything you need for basic home needs. Beach wagons and some chairs and beach toys at both homes were great! We had five couples, a special needs teenager, and a toddler and we all had our respective places between the two homes. Plenty of parking area! Small fenced in area for dogs, but slats are wide, so our small dogs fit right through them. Close to Carolina Beach for night out with the family. Plenty of kitchen items and room to work in kitchen. Cons: Slow water drainage in showers (I assume from sand in drains which they specifically have notes on walls about). Small ants in kitchen in Lorraine's house and bathroom cabinet broken. Beds could be better. Since homes are rented separately, you have to walk around front fence to get to other house. Wish there was a fence entrance near the cement driveway so you didn't have to walk so far. Just thought I would mention these few things, otherwise, the homes were perfect for our family.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
We enjoyed our stay, the rooms in the big house were very big very clean. The place is very kid friendly, dog friendly. It has a fenced in area for a dog. It also has a nice fenced in porch that you could sit on at night time.We had one question, and the host got back to us within 10 minutes. We would’ve liked the two houses to be connected through the inside ,had to walk around (very minor) Lots of dishes and silverware, new pots were very easy to cook with.They had two wagons which helped bring stuff to the beach, which is extremely close. If you live close, you should bring your own beach chairs, they did have five beach chairs however they were uncomfortable.This is our fifth time staying at Kure Beach, it is a great place for family vacations. Is also the fifth time that we used. I-trip NC who are always easy to work with.The only ding I have to give it is the washing machine in the main house, which is the bigger one did not work. They did inform us of this when we checked in, and said that they would be sending somebody over to check on it which they never did.

Thank you for your thoughtful review and for choosing to stay with us again! We're so glad you enjoyed the spacious, clean home and found it to be a great fit for your family and your dog. It's wonderful to hear that you appreciated the fenced yard and porch, the well stocked kitchen, the beach wagons, the close beach access, and our quick communication. We truly appreciate your continued trust in iTrip NC Beaches. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the washing machine. We apologize for the inconvenience. We did have someone come out to inspect it during your stay, and after evaluating the issue, a repair needed to be scheduled. We're sorry it wasn't resolved before your departure and appreciate your patience and understanding. Thank you again for your kind words and valuable feedback. We hope to welcome you back for another family beach vacation. Thanks for trippin' with iTrip!
