10/10 — we will absolutely be back!This was our second stay at this property, and we’re already planning our next visit. The home is spotless, modern and beautifully decorated with the cutest beach vibe — it immediately puts you in vacation mode.We love the proximity to the beach, restaurants, the running path, and the park. It truly feels close to everything while still being tucked away in a quiet, peaceful area. The golf cart is a huge bonus and makes getting around both easy and fun.The owners are wonderful — friendly, responsive, and incredibly easy to communicate with. Of all the places we’ve stayed in CB, this is by far our favorite!

NC Beach Getaway

Our kids moved to Durham and wanted to visit a NC Beach and Carolina Beach did not disappoint. We stayed for four nights and enjoyed exploring the area on the golf cart which was definitely the highlight of our vacation. The house is exactly as described and was super comfortable and enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again.
