About this property
Bob's Island retreat
Welcome to Bob’s Island Retreat, your quintessential getaway nestled just a block from the picturesque Carolina Beach. This inviting two-bedroom, two-bathroom abode is perfectly placed near the entrance to Freeman Park, striking the perfect balance between a tranquil retreat and a beachside adventure.
Though the retreat once offered a slight ocean view between two distant buildings, nature’s touch has since enhanced the scene with flourishing palm trees, providing just a fleeting glimpse of the ocean’s grandeur. However, the charm of Bob’s Island Retreat extends beyond the sea view, with two balconies that allow you to soak in the natural beauty surrounding the property. The front balcony whispers the presence of the nearby ocean, while the rear balcony offers a stunning view of the marshland. Here, during particularly large high tides, the marsh transforms into an enchanting water landscape, creating a serene and picturesque backdrop for your stay.
Our guests have exclusive access to one of the island’s finest swimming pools, known for its superb quality and peaceful setting, making it an ideal spot for those seeking a quiet day of relaxation.
Pet owners will appreciate that Freeman Park allows dogs to roam freely at any hour, ensuring that your furry friends can join in on the fun. On the rest of Carolina Beach, there are designated times for pets on the beach, ensuring everyone has a moment in the sun.
Bob’s Island Retreat is equipped for comfort, featuring cozy queen-size beds in both bedrooms and an additional twin-size air mattress for an extra guest. Step out to discover multiple beach access points just a block away, ensuring your journey to the sand and surf is seamless and straightforward.
The island offers a plethora of rental options to elevate your beach experience. Whether you’re interested in exploring on a golf cart, riding the waves on a surfboard, or simply relaxing on a beach chair, you’ll find everything you need for a perfect day at the beach.
At Bob’s Island Retreat, every detail caters to your comfort and enjoyment, ensuring your stay is both relaxing and memorable. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful escape with beautiful views of the transforming marsh or an active beach holiday filled with sun, surf, and sand, our home is primed to provide an unforgettable vacation experience at Carolina Beach.

This property is just about perfect! The location to the beach is a short walking distance, the condo decor is whimsical and eclectic and tastefully done. The place is very clean, well equipped and the owner has great communication. We'll definitely be returning.
We love the north end and this stay was awesome! Location was perfect for us with lots of other pet owners in the area. This place is now our favorite place in the north end
Perfect location! Has everything you need! So close to all the hot spots! Very clean, Bob is quick to respond if you have any questions. We will definitely be back to stay at Bob's Island Retreat soon!! Thanks Bob!!!
Check-in was very easy. All was as instructions provided. Kitchen was super clean and easily navigated. The entire unit was clean and comfortable. Very relaxing.
Great short vacation with the family of 3 and pups
The location is perfect for accessing the Freeman Beach and being close to restaurants, etc. The house is tidy and everything is labeled well.
Thanks Bob!
The condo was perfect for our small family getaway! Loved the proximity to the Pier and the Point. Bob our host was so helpful and gracious, love his place.
Thanks again for a fun seamless experience.
We have been to Bob's Island . Retreat 3 times over the last 13 months. We absolutely love the condo, the decor is so cool! The condo is the perfect size and, has everything we needed
Wonderful getaway for long holiday weekend. Short trip from Raleigh Durham. Easy access to beach, close to drivable beach access if you have 4 wheeled drive. Easy walk to Carolina Boardwalk for the teenagers. Clean condo with full amenities and a pool. Beautiful porches and view of the sound. Perfect for families.
We enjoyed our stay at Bob’s condo. It is conveniently located a block off the beach that has a beachside restaurant/tiki bar on the pier. The condo was very clean and homey. We really enjoyed sitting on the front and back balconies. The condo had all of the supplies we needed. The condo had a clear list of check out duties. We would stay here again.
We 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.
We were at Bobs Island Retreat at the end of July. We absolutely LOVED everything about the property. The condo was clean, had fantastic decor and had everthing we needed for our stay. We enjoyed our time so much that as soon as we were able to come back, we did! This week did not disappoint. We took advantage of the beach near the condo, which was a change from our stay in July as we had other family staying near the boardwalk. It was nice being close to the beach. Our host was available as he had been last time and was reasonable and accommodating and house rules were clearly stated. We are hoping to make this a regular vaction spot. Thank you so much for the use of your fabulous condo.
The entire place was extremely clean, including the towels and linens. Parking was great, it’s literally under the front deck, couldn’t get any closer. Bob was awesome. The listing stated to get in touch with him on the day of arrival, but he actually reached out first to let us know about check in and several things to check out in the area during our stay.
This condo is fantastic! So fun to sit on the back porch to watch to marsh and the birds. The front porch has a great sitting area and gets a nice breeze. The condo is cozy and well appointed. It had everything we needed. We brought our dog with us, and it was a quick walk to the beach. He loved it! We enjoyed the pool, the beach and the cute town.
Bob makes it so easy. Simple check in, great parking situation, easy check out. We love the front and back porches, the kitchen, the comfortable beds and couch. Even during a rainy stay we had a great time.
This condo has easy access to the beach, views of the marsh, and a convenient, uncrowded pool. We had a perfectly relaxing stay and would definitely return!
