    We had a wonderful time! Our family of 5 (3 kids, age 6 and 5 y/o twins) LOVED this home. We chose it because it was a short distance walk (10 mins) to the beach and it was not to close to the boardwalk because we did not want to deal with late night noise. The location of this home allowed for quiet at night time but still gave the proximity needed to experience Carolina Beach. We also chose this home for the kids' playroom and activities. We wanted a place that would keep them entertained and this place did more than that! Our children had memorable experiences. The adults were also extremely pleased! Our host was very communicative and professional, she checked in with us to ensure all was well. A situation occurred that preceded us and she took care of it right away! In all, we had an excellent experience! The pictures are not photoshopped...they show exactly what the home is: a beautiful, clean oasis!

    Our family had a blast at this kid and dog friendly beach house! The playroom was a hit with the littles, and the beach carts with sand toys were an added bonus. Beach chairs and boogie boards were also available for use, which meant less packing. The house was beautifully decorated, and stocked with all necessities. We will definitely return!

    Our kids were super excited as all. As they entered the house and had an absolute blast during our stay. The kids were 5,6,8 and 11 and they all had fun. The property was super clean and lovely. It was very supplied with everything we needed. The host was very prompt is all communications and very responsive. We even asked for more laundry pods and towels and she had them delivered. The property is in a quiet part of the town and has a great trail close by that is great for late evening walk. We will definitely be coming back.
