We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and all communications with the owner. She was responsive and helpful as needed.The cottage fits its description and pictures exactly. It had plenty of towels, and most importantly a well equipped kitchen. Some courtesy toiletries in the bathrooms was very nice to see, even if we had brought plenty.We love the spaciousness of the rooms.The location was perfect for a quiet street easily within walking distance of town.

About the host

Hosted by deborah gacsy

Host profile image
Originally from New England, Deb grew up in a small suburb outside Boston, went to college in Farmington, Maine, and then headed to Southern California—where she met her husband at Camp Pendleton. Deb holds the beach close to her heart. After years on West Coast sands (especially Huntington Beach), a local friend told her Carolina Beach felt like the “OG days of HB,” so she came to see for herself—and he was 100% right. Now, while setting up and continually polishing 706Fourth@Carolina Beach, you’ll spot her cruising to the Boardwalk promenade, Lake Park, the farmers market, and down to Kure on a beach cruiser. She occasionally enjoys the 12-mile drive into Wilmington for supplies and fresh furnishings. Her goal is simple: make every guest’s stay easy, comfortable, and memorable—so you can fall in love with Carolina Beach just like she did.

Why they chose this property

I chose to purchase this home because it is tucked on a quiet street yet just a few blocks from the beach, Lake Park, and the Boardwalk. Carolina Beach has so much to offer travelers without the commercial feel. Off season is turning out to be just as nice with smaller crowds and cooler temps. I believe 706 Fourth gives you the best of both worlds—close to everything without the bustle. The house feels cozy but smartly laid out so families can spread out, with private bedrooms and a second stairway under the house for easy in-and-out after sandy beach runs. Outside, a large fenced backyard and a covered patio/parking area make it easy to dine al fresco on the main-level deck, or chalk up the driveway for games on a rainy beach day. Summer parking is gold in Carolina Beach—here, there’s space for an extra-large vehicle, boat, or RV (no hookups/dumping), plus room to breathe. You’ll still catch the light ocean breeze, hear the faint surf, and slip into an easy rhythm that feels like home.

What makes this property unique

Here’s why 706Fourth@Carolina Beach stands out from the crowd:

* **Quiet-but-close location:** —easy access without the late-night noise.
* **Rare parking & space:** Summer parking is tight in CB; here you’ve got room for an extra-large vehicle, boat, or RV (no hookups/dumping) plus an expansive driveway and backyard.
* **Family-friendly layout:** Cozy feel with smart separation—private bedrooms and a **second stairway under the house** for effortless sandy drop-offs and quick ins/outs.
* **Outdoor living built in:** **Front deck off the main area for al-fresco dining**, or use the shaded covered patio/parking zone, and a fenced backyard made for lounging.
* **Rain-day ready:** Chalk up the driveway for games, relax under cover, or spread out inside—no cabin fever here.
* **Breezy beach vibe:** Light ocean breeze, faint surf sounds, and a home that feels like your own coastal hideaway—without sacrificing convenience.
* **Thoughtful hosting:** Deb keeps the place refreshed with comfy touches and local tips so your stay is easy, relaxed, and memorable.

In short: 706 Fourth gives you the rare combo of serenity, space, and true walkability—everything you want at the beach, without what you don’t.
