First stay in a container. Thought layout was well done and well equiped micro kitchen. The bath with ample shower was a pleasant surprise for a small overall space. Perfect for two and three blocks from shoreline. Two dedicated parking pads. Easy driving to and from unit if you use backroad Dow and not the main US 421 Carolina Beach Rd if you wish to avoid the usual traffic. Carolina Beach State Park has nice walking trails and no entrance fees. Fees for camping and boat ramp. The NC aquarium is closed for renovation. The host was immediate with replies and we recommend a stay for you. KB

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication
Entire property was overall very tidy and cozy. Had to provide my own sheets and towels, which was no big deal. Loved the motion light switch in the bathroom. This place is PERFECT for a couple that simply needs a place to sleep and shower. There's a small mini fridge, microwave, and 2 stove eyes for some simple meals if needed. Really cool private outdoor shower!

We were quite disappointed. No table. No chairs. No hooks or other storage. Stained duvet. “Couch” was pitiful. No instructions about TV. Husband fell and bruised his arm when chair on front deck collapsed (rotted wood). Sewer-like odor. Had to buy candles.
