Stayed Jul 22, 2025We had an amazing time at Bob’s place. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and incredibly comfortable. The water pressure in the showers was amazing. It felt like a spa after a day at the beach.The location was perfect. The beach was literally a 2-minute walk, which made everything so easy, especially with a toddler. My 3-year-old, Lucas, was absolutely amazed by the house. He loved exploring, and the calm vibe made it easy for all of us to relax.Bob was a fantastic host. He was responsive, thoughtful, and easy to communicate with. Everything was well-prepared, from the clear check-in instructions to the cozy beds and well-stocked kitchen.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and comfortable beach getaway.

Stayed Jun 24, 2025We loved our stay at Bob’s condo. The 2 porches allowed us to read and relax in the shade. The condo was comfortable , clean and well stocked.The access to Freeman Park beach was lovely for easy trips to the beach. We also enjoyed the proximity to Carolina State park for long, early-morning hikes with our dog. Carolina Beach has much to offer. The aquarium is close by, plus the ferry to Southport was a fun trip.
