Vacation time! Spacious newly remodeled retreat with all the comforts to unwind.
Centrally located in Wilmington on the picturesque Masonboro Sound. Enjoy a couple of day excursions, just a short 15 minute drive to Carolina Beach, Wrightsville Beach and Downtown Wilmington. Play in the sand and surf at Wrightsville Beach next to the Johnnie Mercers pier which offers a full breakfast, lunch and dessert menu. Or travel to Carolina Beach near the boardwalk next to a variety of restaurants, surf shops and boardwalk. Try our local favorite Britts donuts, open seasonally.
