Lovely place

Only problem I had was the yard was not mowed. I'm sure that was out of the hosts control. Other than that, the house was cute and had a rustic beach feel to it which I loved and only one block walk to the beach. I would definitely stay here again!

Great Stay!

We loved the property and would highly recommend it. It was a convenient walk to the beach and dining, and a short drive to shopping and entertainment. The space was perfect for our family of four plus our dog. Consider this strong endorsement. --Andy

Great Trip at the Beach

We had a great time during out stay at this house! We had 9 people and there was plenty of space for all of us to relax and enjoy ourselves. The house is located just one block from a public beach access so we could just walk back and forth whenever we wanted. The house was very well-stocked with dishes, linens, cooking supplies and paper goods. When we had a need, Erin was quick to respond. Another nice thing was the garage attached to the house where we could easily store sandy beach items. The outdoor shower was also a big bonus! We had a great time and definitely recommend this house for anyone wanting a fun and relaxing vacation at the beach!

Nice cottage

The kitchen is well equipped (there was even one tool in there that I couldn’t identify). Very close to an uncrowded stretch of beach, and a short drive to the more active sections of town. The stash of beach chairs and umbrella cart in the “garage” is also a nice touch. Carolina/Kure Beaches are beautiful and laid back (read not Myrtle Beach). They are great for a family getaway. Tony Silvagni’s Surf School is a great way to spend a few hours. Tony is one of the top American longboarders, but odds are he’ll be the one answering the phone if you call him. Great guy and great business he runs. I’m darn near 50 and he gets me up on the board.

Great getaway

The cottage was cute and had great location. The pictures online show a very bright and airy place however in reality the windows had shutters that made the inside dark and dreary. The online picture showed a beautiful landscaped yard and at the time of our stay a 3 story condo was being built behind it. I’m not sure if this would have changed my choice but it was a little disappointing. Still everyone enjoyed themselves and the cottage is very cute. Honestly, right now I am waiting for my refundable deposit to be returned and I don’t like that it is taking so long.

Absolutely great place to stay! I wish we could have stayed longer. The house is well stocked for cooking and kept very clean. Great communication with the host and we had a very nice conversation about places to eat and things to do. It was myself, my husband, my daughter and her husband and 5 month old, my son and his 11 year old daughter. Easy entry into the house and a skip across the road to the beach. Such a nice and very much needed weekend we had. I will definitely look for this property when planning another family vacation.

Not bad but not worth cost

No central air or window units in half the rooms. Not enough fans to keep air flowing throughout the house. Found several cockroaches in pantry, bedrooms and living room. Can’t see or hear the ocean, unlike description says. No extra linens, no hairdryer. Easy walk to beach.

7 Midwest Gals Get Together at Kure Beach

We had too much fun! We rode bikes everywhere, played Pickleball, hiked the state parks, visited the historic site, took the ferries to Bald Head Island, walked the beach, ate a bunch of seafood, attended the Island Men Mac and Cheese Festival, and saw some amazing sunrises and sunsets. The dining room table was the best gathering spot. Erin was available if we needed anything. Hope to come back next year.

Love this cute little place!

Couldn’t make it to the beach for a full week so we found this little gem for a 2 night stay. Erin was very quick responding to a few questions we had. House is adorable! Plenty of room for me, my husband, daughter, son and 3 other 17 year old boys. Only one block from direct access to beach which was an easy walk. Be sure to check laundry room because it is full of beach goodies (beach wagon, chairs, umbrella, etc)…….we did not do that until check out. :( All sheets, towels, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, paper towels, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, etc. were supplied too!! Thank you for making our first trip to Kure Beach a great one! We will be returning!!

We had a wide range of ages stay at this home (from 2yrs to 5ish) and WE ALL ENJOYED IT. Great amount of space for the kids to play around also! Not to mention - the SUPER SHORT WALK to the beach! We enjoyed our stay and everything that the host had to offer within the home, plus great communication. Thank you for hosting us :)
