It was so clean and even exceeded the description on the listing. The kitchen appliances we wonderful and the front and back porches so nice. Mr Kitts was so quick to respond and was an excellent host. Would definitely stay again! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d82143b0-2b3b-49f5-abfb-893a0702363c-1753572038972.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Cher M. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gabe L. 10 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Amazing place, very short walk to the beach, handicap beach access, crosswalk over road, walking path a few blocks away. Our dog dug out of the back gate twice and the neighbors caught him put him back and even fixed his holes, amazing home, amazing neighbors!! Screen porch at the beach and cold AC inside, older home so lots of character! We loved our stay and will look for availability in the future. House is technically not handicapped accessible but without an elevator at the beach the one step porch is almost as close as it gets, side note for families of special needs wheelchair kiddos. ##### Gabe L. Stayed 9 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### sarah n. 16 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Location The house is in a great location and just a short walk to the beach. Our dog loved the fenced in yard. We enjoyed spending time as a family playing the provided board games as well as corn hole. Host was tentative and responded swiftly. The kitchen table had crayon and sand on it when we arrived which was easily cleaned with a Lysol wipe. The floors are slanted in some areas and the window AC unit is very loud in the back bedroom. Overall good house, would stay again. ##### sarah n. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melisa W. 14 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family time We had an absolutely wonderful time. The location of this home was perfect. The fenced in yard for our dog was amazing. It was nice not to have to put my dog on a leash to walk them to go to the bathroom or just to keep them outside for a little while. The fenced in yard was wonderful for anybody that has animals. ##### Melisa W. Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Suzanne H. 13 Aug 2024 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Location, Has Everything You Need We had a great time in this house that is perfectly located close to the beach access and has what you need for your stay. The beds and living areas were comfy. We love staying in older "Rustic" cabins so most nuances dont bother us. However, this home should have some repairs made to make it worth the money to stay here. It would appear that there are some issues that are causing the floors to buckle in areas. The laminate and ceramic tile are beyond the end of their life and the back door would often not open due to the immense swelling. The Window AC unit in the back bedroom needs to be replaced as it is so loud its hard to sleep with it on, but too hot in the house to turn it off. Overall we enjoyed our stay, but minor repairs will make this house worth the money and I would want to know these things prior to booking. ##### Suzanne H. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Donna F. 20 Aug 2024 Liked: Location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### Pictures is not accurate This was our very first trip to Carolina Beach and we absolutely fell in love with the beach and the people ❤ We were very disappointed with the way the place looked when we pulled up the grass was as tall as our knees😥 Thought at first we were at the wrong place but no, this was the address. It also shows a screened in porch which I would have enjoyed if it had not had one section torn out. The back porch is just nasty! The beds look awful and we didn't even use them!Jeff who is the host was not any help with getting on WiFi, nothing would work not the user name or password we tried everything and he finally quit responding, My husband looked around found a power strip in the back bedroom that had been turned off. Also he does not respond to questions quickly. I would never reccomend this property ##### Donna F. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stacey G. 15 Jul 2025 ##### Stacey G.
