Parsley is a cherished historic sound-front cottage where guests return year after year to experience the timeless charm of Wrightsville Beach. With breathtaking sound views, spectacular sunsets, and a delightful wraparound porch lined with rocking chairs, this coastal retreat is perfect for relaxation. Just across the street, children can splash in the gentle waters of a private beach that emerges at low tide, while adults enjoy the serenity of the lush garden by the shore. A short walk across South Lumina provides easy access to the ocean, ensuring the best of both worlds.

This beloved cottage seamlessly blends vintage character with modern comforts. The main level features a cozy yet functional kitchen, an inviting living and dining area, and a charming bedroom with a twin bed. Multiple sets of French doors and windows allow the fresh ocean breeze to sweep through the home, just like in the old days. The expansive shaded porch is the heart of the cottage—perfect for unwinding in a rocking chair while enjoying the coastal air. A unique feature of this home is the full bathroom located on the porch, adding a rustic and relaxing touch to your stay.

Upstairs, three additional bedrooms provide plenty of space for family and friends. The first guest room offers a full and twin bed, while the two remaining bedrooms each feature two twin beds and their own private sinks—an authentic nod to the home’s history. A shared half bathroom with a charming clawfoot tub adds to the vintage appeal.

Though the cottage’s cross breeze keeps it wonderfully comfortable, modern amenities like central heat and air, as well as ceiling fans throughout, ensure year-round comfort. However, the home is winterized and unavailable for rent from December through April.

Step back in time and experience Wrightsville Beach the way it was meant to be—peaceful, picturesque, and full of nostalgia. Don't miss your chance to stay in this truly special coastal getaway!

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My friends and I rent the Parsley house for a week every year and it's the perfect place to spend a beach week. The house is comfortable and has everything we need. We love the fact that it's a classic Wrightsville Beach beach cottage and is well suited for a leisurely stay. The beach on the sound side is perfect for hanging out and for keeping our boat moored. We'll keep renting this cottage every year for sure!

Great location and easy access to some great restaurants in town. We especially loved sunsets on the private beach on the causeway. So convenient! The house has a vintage cottage vibe that we all enjoyed. Cool and comfy! We hope to return next summer!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very beachy, old school home. Well appointed in terms of dishes, cups, etc.; I was worried that the outdoor shower would be an issue, but it ended up being fine. The porch is amazing! If you are ok spending most of your time outdoors and don’t want to be inside at all (which is the intent at the beach!), you will enjoy this home.. it was a bit stuffy downstairs with no AC in July.

We wound up spending more time there than we did at the ocean. The pictures do not do it justice.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay the old fashioned way in Parsley Cottage. It was exactly the vacation we needed. The cottage is in a great location on the waterway within close proximity to the public beach access and so one can walk to the shops and restaurants. We loved the vintage feel including the porch bathroom off the porch. I hope everything at Parsley stays exactly as it is!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This cottage has the feel of a real old fashioned Wrightsville Beach cottage—and so few remain. The location is convenient. It does not have some of the modern conveniences but the rustic flavor is just right for us.

    went in for a quiet collective experience, as I was turning 30, and came out feeling more at peace and loved than I knew was possible. Just a couple close friends and me, but the place can happily sleep more. It was quiet and a thankful spot. Alot of the artwork was images of what this place had been before the realty business saw its beauty in location. Just behind us was the ocean, but we spent most the time on our own private beach just outside the front door. When i say it was transformative, I mean it. I dont think I'll ever rent a different house on WB and nor will I let my friends!! I've been in the area nearly 10years now and the oasis of this place is unmatched. Be prepared for amazing sunsets, a private feel in a bustling beach town, and for true character in the house. So much love. Thank you to the owners.
