About this property

5 bedroom,4 bath! Elevator! 2 min. to the ocean! Only thing missing is you!!!

Welcome to GONE COASTAL A, our 2700 sq foot, 5 BR, 4 BA Kure Beach home with both ocean sounds and views. This is one of two side by side recently updated duplexes that can be rented individually or together. A 2-minute walk takes you to beautiful and family friendly Kure Beach with exquisite sand and surf, charming restaurants and the oldest fishing pier on the Atlantic coast. An ocean front park with seaside swings and a playground provides fun for all ages.

This property was previously name 'No Bad Days'. We have renamed to align with our sister property next door - GONE COASTAL B.

It’s a 7-minute drive to meet otters, alligators and sea turtles in the NC Aquarium at Fort Fisher. History buffs will want to tour the Fort Fisher State Historic Site, home of the largest land-sea Civil War battle. A paved trail bordered by majestic live oaks winds past the fort remains and other unusual artifacts. Catch the nearby ferry to Southport or drive north to visit Carolina Beach. Downtown Wilmington is about 30 minutes away and is steeped in history, filled with attractions (Battleship North Carolina, Bellamy Mansion Museum, Live Oak Bank Pavilion to name a few), and offers all the enticing restaurants and shops of a major city, while retaining its small-town coastal charm. Check out https://wilmingtondowntown.com/explore/ for more information.

GONE COASTAL A is newly painted, with new furnishings throughout and is equipped with a private elevator that serves all 3 floors. The 3rd floor is an open floor plan with well appointed living and dining areas, and a well stocked kitchen that includes a Keurig coffee maker. Your chef will love the modern appliances and generous counter space. A 9x19 covered and furnished balcony with remarkable ocean views and surf sounds is accessed from the living room. Bedroom 5 with a queen bed and full bath that includes a tub-shower combo is also on the third floor.

The primary suit is on the second floor and features a king bed, TV and ensuite bath with a separate shower and jetted tub. A private and covered balcony off the primary suite invites romantic salt life moments with your significant other. Bedrooms 3 and 4 are also on the second floor and share a hallway full bath with a tub-shower combo. Bedroom 3 has a queen bed. Bedroom 4 is a bunk room with 4 beds and a TV. Bedroom 1 with a queen bed and en-suite full bath is on the ground floor.

Bed linens and bath towels are supplied at no additional cost. There will be at least one towel and wash cloth per person. Your beds will be made and ready for you upon arrival.

A dedicated laundry room with family size washer and dryer is ready to help you keep your wardrobe ready for every imaginable beach adventure.

The garage has bikes, beach chairs, beach cart, boogie boards, a gas grill and more for guests to use. There is parking for 4 cars on the driveway in front of the home. Additional parking can be found at one of the many public locations around Kure Beach.

Looking for the perfect beach home? You just found it! GONE COASTAL A sleeps 12 comfortably and is ideally located for enjoying sun, sand and surf filled days. Local attractions will keep the entire family happy and entertained when you’re not at the beach. Wow! Start packing now for the perfect vacation!

NOTE: GONE COASTAL A and GONE COASTAL B can both be rented when you need enough space for several families. Renting both of our side by side duplexes gives you sleeping for 24 guests, 10 BRs, 8 BAs, 2 well stocked kitchens and off street parking for 8 vehicles.

Annual extended family vacation

As an extended family we've been going to Kure Beach for 20+ years. Most everyone agreed that this may have been the best house we've ever had! From start to finish, everything was smooth and problem free - no complaints! Highly recommend this home!

Wonderful stay!!!

We had a wonderful time at No Bad Days!!! The house is amazing. The owners are great to work with and the house comes fully loaded, even had bikes we could ride to the beach and around. It has everything you could want to use from a fully equipped kitchen to beach items. The views from the balcony are amazing and it is a very short walk or bike ride to the beach. The ferry to Southport and the aquarium are just down the road. Will definitely go back!!!!

No Bad Days at the Beach

We had a wonderful time at Kure Beach! An easy walk to the beach with tons of beach gear provided in the garage. Excellent kitchen and well-maintained home. Jimmy was very responsive to all our questions. Fabulous place for the kids to ride bikes and play in the street. A great time was had by all!

Spacious Home

We found the home to be very spacious, especially for the number of people (11 adults). The elevator was a blessing in that we had on individual who has difficulty with stairs. Access to the beach was much easier than first thought it would be.

A Bit of Heaven

The property was clean and beautiful. A quiet setting and only a several minute walk to Carolina beach and fun. Close to the aquarium. Plenty of places to eat but highly suggest reservations anywhere near Carolina beach.The elevator was a nice convenience. Only change I would make is to make the queen beds into king beds.The owners responded in an hour to fix a problem.

Great Beach house!!!

This was a wonderful house! We enjoyed staying here very much. It had everything we needed and more. The elevator was a such a nice thing to have to get luggage and groceries up and down the 3 levels. We also really enjoyed using the beach cart, it was a lifesaver! There are beach toys, bikes, boogie boards, umbrellas, beach chairs and games in the garage that came in so handy. It was so nice that we didn’t have to worry about bringing our own beach chairs. The kitchen is well equipped, it has just about everything you need. The beds were very comfortable, and it was so great that linens and towels were provided. We all had a fabulous beach week.

Wonderful Beach Week

Our stay was wonderful. The house was beautiful. The layout was great for our group. The supplies provided were really helpful. The beach gear was great especially the cart to pack everything up for the day. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything we could need. We had one family member unexpectedly on crutches so the elevator was used constantly. It was so much easier for them. Only suggestion would be more chairs on 3rd floor balcony. With a house that big 4 chairs wasn’t enough. But we loved every minute relaxing and making memories.

Wonderful Time at Kure Beach

We had a truly fine vacation in this very comfortable house. It has everything needed for the beach (boogie boards, surfboards, kids' beach toys, chairs, umbrellas and a cart to tote everything in). The house itself is lovely and homey with a large, well equipped kitchen and a table which seats 8 comfortably (a big plus for us, since we saw many properties that divided up the seating... e.g, 6 at table, 2 at counter etc.) We wanted our meals all together. We used the elevator to bring up groceries and luggage and that was a big help! My husband was very happy with the quality of the water in the house and the good supply of ice from the refrigerator. Strong wi-fi throughout the house. Our grandchildren, ages 6 and 8, loved the house as well and enjoyed the many children's books, games and videos. Kure Beach is a nice, quiet community within easy distance of Carolina Beach which has more activities available. The house is a couple short blocks from the beach and in another direction a few blocks from ice cream. What could be better? Jimmy met us when we arrived for a walk-through, answered all of our questions and left clear information and instructions in the house. Barbara

Easy beach access, amazing layout and decor, and well-stocked house!

What a well laid-out, decorated, and supplied home just steps from the beach! We gather each summer as 3 families of friends with kids and this has been our favorite. Jimmy was always quick to respond, provided helpful information sheets both before our stay and for our time in the house, and did a thorough walk-through of the home when we arrived. The house was immaculate and provided everything we could need including paper products, cleaning supplies, kitchen appliances and useful items like aluminum foil and spices, binders with local information, a basket with things like a spare pair of reading glasses, and more! So much thought has went into these details! And we loved the garage full of organized, amazing items such as adult bikes, 10+ beach chairs, sand toys, 6+ boogie boards, a grill (my husband wants one like it now:), and more! The layout of the house was so helpful as we could divide up between families. There are a lot of stairs between 3 floors but the elevator was so helpful and we were thankful that it has many safety features and is inspected annually. The balconies are beautiful and a peaceful way to escape and see the ocean a block away. The location was perfect to be able to access the beach! A wonderful beach access is just down a 1/2 block, over a block and Jimmy provided two beach carts and we could access it (even with kids!) in less than 5 minutes. That part of the beach is calmer, too, away from the pier. You can access Carolina Beach and it's activities in 5 minutes (or a short bike ride)! We enjoyed things such as taking the Ft. Fisher ferry to Southport, walking the boardwalk in Carolina Beach (Brit's Doughnuts!), taking a pirate cruise in Wrightsville Beach (35 min away), and more! Such a lovely location with both peace and activity and what a gem of a place to explore it from! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Family Reunion

The house perfect for our family reunion and the elevator was great for getting our dad from the top floor to the ground floor in his wheelchair. This was also the most well stocked VRBO's I have stayed at recently. The kitchen had EVERYTHING you could think of which made staying in and cooking a breeze. There was also EVERYTHING you need for spending the day at the beach, from chairs and umbrellas to kids toys to make sand castles, and all easy to transport in the wagon provided. One last perk was that it had regular TV service (Direct TV) instead of only subscription service access. We would definitely stay here again if the occasion comes along!

Great Location and Beautiful Condo

What a great find in Kure Beach! We had a family of 6 adults and this place was so spacious for our group..we only used 3 of the 5 bedrooms. The elevator was so helpful since the kitchen and living room are on the 3rd floor. From the balcony, you can see the ocean. Quiet neighborhood and just a block from Public beach access. The closest beach access also is ramp instead of stairs (if you know the area, not all beach accesses have ramps) and this was great for using the beach buggy to carry all of our items for a day by the ocean. Plenty of chairs (though we brought some of our own, we didn’t need to!) We loved this place and hope to be back one day!

Great place to stay in Kure Beach!

The property was clean, spacious, and well suited to our family group of 9 for a 5 night stay. Beach access is only a short walk away, there were bikes and beach gear available in the garage, and in addition to the TV in the living room there is a TV in every bedroom. The property owner was very nice and responded to all our requests for information, etc, timely and helpfully.

Wonderful Family Vacation

Our family of 14 had an amazing week at Kure Beach, and this house made that possible! Anything you could possibly need could be found at the house-books, games, beach chairs, umbrellas, a buggy to get things to the beach, and several bicycles. The elevator allowed everyone to access all areas of the house and helped with all of the heavy bags. Within a short walk /bike ride we were able to spend time on the beach, play games at the arcade, fish from the pier, or venture into several local restaurants and shops. Kathleen was always quick to respond to any questions we had before and during our trip. I would highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a relaxing beach vacation. Thank you so much for a wonderful week!

Family vacation for 13!

Everything about our stay was great! Our family of 13 came from different parts of the country to Kure Beach .We arrived before entrance time and were let in with no problems. The elevator helped so much with the heavy items. We cooked most meals and the kitchen was great. Owner replaced the coffee maker within a short time for us. The beach was great every day. The beach wagon was so helpful along with extra items. Our teens rode the bikes. The high point of week was ordering a seafood boil to cook and serve at the house. It was from Cape Fear Boil Company. You will not be disappointed!! Thank you , Kathleen

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property because it is the perfect size for a large family and/or group of friends. It is a short walk to the beach and close to lots of other things to do. The house is well-built and provides lots of common space for families together along with good sized bedrooms for privacy. The elevator is a great addition to help transport supplies or reduce the need to climb three flights of stairs.

What makes this property unique

The private elevator and no steps to the front door provide access to the whole house for everyone regardless of their limitations.
