Located directly on the beach, this cottage offers a classic beach holiday with lovely ocean views throughout the entire house. An open layout features a full kitchen and an inviting living area with a smart TV - perfect for movie nights. Step out to the private deck and enjoy front-row ocean vistas. A gas grill and picnic table set the scene for cookouts at home, while a gas firepit invites cozy fireside chats.

Spend the day splashing in the ocean or relaxing on the soft sand.

Turtle time

The house was wonderful. It was very clean. The wood work was appealing. Access to the beach wasn't difficult. The dunes have to be there for beach preservation. We will return.

Nice Place

Nice place for our weekend vacation. The house had everything we needed and is conveniently located close to restaurants, stores, etc.. the beach view is beautiful and not alot of people. The only room for improvement we noticed was the cleanliness. There were multiple areas that havent been cleaned/dusted in a long time, and there was trash and food from the last occupants in between the couch and under the bed.

Classic cottage with modern updates

We’ve been vacationing at NC beaches for 3 decades and this was our first opportunity to stay beachfront. The cottage was a perfect blend of classic (original wood details, simple layout) but nicely updated kitchen and bathrooms. The A/C was out the night we arrived (seems like an ongoing problem based on past reviews) but since it was October we opened the windows for a lovely breeze. A repair tech came out first thing in the morning and it was fixed by 11am. So many great things are walkable (coffee, restaurants, playgrounds) and of course being able to walk off the deck and just a few steps to the beach was amazing. It cooled off our last evening there and we looked forward to using the fireplace on the porch but the ignition was broken so that was a bit disappointing. Otherwise we would definitely rent again and look forward to bringing our kids back in the summer.

Great property, horrible property manager

This property was wonderful, clean, modern kitchen, beachfront. Bathrooms were a bit dated, but no big issues there. The property manager, Vacasa could not have been less helpful. I tried calling a few times, and ended up waiting for 15 minutes before hanging up. Then, the AC went out and I called asking them to fix. It was 6pm, so they said they couldn’t do anything. It quickly became 80 degrees (would have been miserable with 2 young kids) so we cut our vacation short and left that night. There are after hours services to do this. As well, they did not refund anything from forcing us out of the property at 6pm instead of 10 am the following day. I love thé property, but will never use Vacasa again
