About this property

Pet Friendly Cottage Minutes from the KB Pier

You'll want to spend all of your "Happy Daze" right here in Kure Beach just around the corner from the Pier. This two-bedroom and two-bathroom cottage is perfect for couples or families and the furriest members in your group. The dogs will love the large, fenced in backyard, where you will find the primary entrance, and the people will love the modern kitchen and comfortable amenities. Please note that to gain entry to the property, you will need to utilize the entrance on the backside of the cottage.

In the bedrooms you'll find a Queen bed in the primary room, then a Full plus a Twin bed in the guest room. If that is not enough there is a sleeper sofa in the Living Room. Speaking of not enough, if the two inside showers are full, pop outside for a shower al fresco. You'll find a great patio and grill out there too. Inside we've got fast wireless internet and a Keurig coffee maker so a fresh cup of joe is never far away.

The property is within walking distance to the Kure Beach Pier and all the fun restaurants around. Kure Beach is a fantastic place to enjoy great dining, fishing on the pier, a day at the aquarium or the historic Fort Fisher, or simply relax and soak up the sun on the beautiful beach. Enjoy a satisfying burger at Beach House Burger’s or the calabash style seafood at Big Daddy’s Restaurant! Spectacular sunrises, occasional dolphins, friendly townspeople and a laid back vibe make this the perfect place to vacation year after year. Go ahead and make your reservation today so you too can savor those "Happy Daze"!

Family trip

Loved the location of the house exactly what we were looking for as far as privacy and close distance to the pier. House was the perfect size for our family. Our elderly dog enjoyed sunning in the fenced in back yard. I would definitely book this house again.

Beautiful Home

Beautiful and updated home with a very quick walk to the beach and pier. The kitchen was stocked with everything you would possibly need to cook a nice meal. The bathrooms were stocked with beach towels and plenty of bath towels. The fenced in back yard was great for our large dog. Dog bowls for food and water were also included. We enjoyed walking our dog around the neighborhood. We will definitely be back and thankful that the owners allow a large dog.

Perfection!

This impeccable home was the perfect choice for us and our fur baby! The location was excellent! Walking distance to the beach, dog parks and several restaurants, as well as great bicycle riding area with trails . Amanda and Craig have paid a great deal of attention to details with their beachy decor and amenities. They also messaged us when we left one of our belongings behind and mailed it back to us! Only thing we would change is we would have stayed longer if our time would have allowed us! You will not be disappointed if you choose this place. Thank you Amanda and Craig for providing us with one of our most relaxing vacations ever at your place.

Perfect Stay

The cottage was as promised: clean, well-stocked, tasteful decor without being too kitschy. The walk to the beach was easy although I chose to drive and park at a beach access a bit farther from the pier. The backyard was safe/secure and I was able to let my pup to have outdoor time. As a note there is one gap in the back of the shed that allows a smaller dog to crawl under. The main bathroom is pretty tight, however the 2nd bath/shower in the closed sunroom was larger. Maybe a bit of attention to the shower heads in both are in order. I brought a ton of stuff for a 6night stay and I could have left it at home. Linens were good quality and the kitchen has everything!! I have to say the neighbors and folks at the pier, coffee shop, hardware store, etc. were super friendly. I really enjoyed the house and Kure beach for the 5th annual beach vacation.

Needs new mattresses!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Grass needs to be cut WEEKLY. Difficult to clean up after dogs when the grass is high. Dirt Devil needs to be replaced. I vacuum bc i have dogs atleast once or twice a week. If the cleaning crew is using that vacuum cleaner they likely aren’t doing a good job. The mattresses are painful. I won’t stay there again. It is a shame bc it is a lovely home, lovely neighbors and so close to the beach. And your maintenance guy is rude. Office staff were awesome. A/C on carport area needs to be serviced yearly per the weekend A/C visit we had to have.

wonderful visit!

My daughter and I loved this house and the convenient location. Our dogs loved the nice back yard. The house was VERY well equipped, clean, charming and an incredibly short walk to the beach, a convenience store (great coffee!), shopping and restaurants. The air conditioner in the side room broke and the Keurig broke but otherwise it was great. I would recommend 100%!

I almost don’t want to tell people how good it is to stay here so it wont be booked all the time but here it is- Location, location, location! 3 short blocks ( 3 minute walk) from the beach restaurants, Kure fishing pier, located in a quiet residential area. Pictures online and description are accurate. Check in was a breeze- the rental mgr communicated in advance regarding check in codes, and what is expected on departure day. Kitchen is well-equipped, even has a crockpot, keurig. Dishwasher, washing machine and dryer on site were a Godsend! Clean house, did not need to use 2nd bedroom but really nice to have to place beach gear suitcases, etc. Fenced i yard was very much appreciated for our 2 doggies. We felt really safe and relaxed staying here. We will definitely book with this rental mgr again!

Literal Perfect Place to Stay at the Beach

At just a couple blocks away from ANYTHING you could want in Kure Beach, this was the perfect place to stay. We walked to the pier, beach access, a number of local restaurants, the arcade...not to mention, having a 2 & 3 year old with us, it was equidistant the other direction to the playground (and pickleball courts!) The home itself is exactly what you need if traveling with family and a dog(s). Fenced in back yard was wonderful, well kept, and perfect for kiddos and pups to run around. Kitchen and appliances are top notch. Beds were comfortable. Definitely feel like we got our money's worth during our stay. Will be back again!

Had a great time!

We’ve stayed in another house previously and we were sad to see that it was not available for our trip this year. We went with this house instead and were very happy! The house was perfect for our family. The dog loved having the back yard to run around. Checking in was easy, and the realty company was easy to communicate with. The home was clean and the beds were comfortable. Even though it is a smaller house, it had a second bathroom which was a nice bonus. The house was close to everything and there are several food options nearby. We had a great visit and would look at this home again next time we are at Kure Beach!

This was our second stay at this house, unfortunately not as good as the first! It was nasty, the smell of urine was evident, it was like the place got a once over and done! Nasty underneath the furniture like it was never moved, ever! You shouldn't have to come on vacation and spend money on Febreeze and candles and cleaning supplies to get it bearable.....did i mention the dog hair? ugh!
