The recently remodeled kitchen includes all major appliances and accessories. The washer and dryer is located adjacent to the kitchen. Off the kitchen is a big dining table that sits 6. PLENTY of room for sitting, eating, and RELAXING! The living area includes seating for 5 and the couch folds out into a queen size bed. The OCEANFRONT balcony is SPACIOUS with a bar height table and four chairs. You can people watch and see the waves hit the sand from the balcony.

Oceanfront Second Story on Carolina Beach near Freeman Park
The accommodations were very much as described. The view was amazing and absolutely oceanfront. Location was great. We took our bikes so we were able to ride just a few minutes to get to some nightlife. Also, a ten minute walk to Freeman Park where our lab was able to run without a leash. Walked for 4 miles on Freeman Park Beach which was great. Beautiful out there. Would have liked to have walked to Freeman Park on the beach but some of the beachfront between our place and Freeman Park had some huge rocks on the beach preventing us from walking on that part of the beach. Walked to Freeman Park on the road. Pier had some damage from the last storm so that is closed now. Did go out on the Kure Beach Pier. Had everything we needed including a coffee pot. Found a Publix not far away. The inside of the condo is beachy and pretty rustic. It was clean though and the host was very receptive. Played a board game one day called Logos and that was fun. No problem getting connected to internet or getting games on tv that we wanted to see. Water in the showers was hot. We found the NC Aquarium and Fort Fisher. Definitely worth visiting. We also enjoyed the Fat Pelican (totally unique and definitely a must visit) and the SeaWitch (get the shrimp brushetta). We also found the Pilot House in downtown Wilmington. Very very good food and great vibe. Area down there fun to explore as well.

So close!
The condo and stay was awesome. It's so close to the ocean that you can almost feel the spray at high tide. Was treated to a "Super Moon" that rose just off the 2nd floor balcony. Also so appreciative of the host who had my back when I messed up the key code. He got right back to me with the correct code! : )

My friend and I and our 2 little dogs stayed for 4 nights. We had a great time. Lot's of walks on the beach. The Condo was great and very nice to sit on the porch. We wish there was more beach area though. High tide kind of left a tiny bit of beach. But overall our stay was Lovely!! Thanks

Outstanding Stay in the facility and area
We were totally pleased with the facility. Disappointed that the VCR did not work because we had our favorites ones we wanted to watch. We are "Old School" (Almost 80 years old and not familiar with electronic elements.) Next time, we will ask for the bottom floor, at our age our suitcases were almost too much.

Great Condo On The Beach
My mom and I were at the condo in early May. The location was perfect, it was close enough to shops and restaurants but far enough away that it was peaceful. There is a public beach access right next to the property, which was so convenient; we easily could run back inside to ise the bathroom or grab more water. The best part of the condo was the balcony off the living room that overlooks the ocean. We spent our mornings and evenings there enjoying the beach without actually being on the beach; perfect scenery as we enjoyed our meals out there. Our dogs also loved being out there too! The condo was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed for our stay. The covered parking was also a bonus. Definitely recommend!

Carolina beach stay
Overall for a short weekend trip, this condo had everything we needed and communication with the property manager was great. I always appreciate when a Vrbo has things like hand soap, dish soap, paper towels and even coffee filters. I also enjoyed that the queen size bed was memory foam and was very comfortable. I took away a star because you can very clearly hear the upstairs neighbors just walking, not stomping or running or anything like that, but it’s clear as day so that was disruptive at night. The front door on a particularly windy day also wanted to rattle and thump around like crazy and it almost drove us mad because we couldn’t figure out how to get it to quiet down. Overall though a great stay

Great Value for Location
This place is in a great location, you are close to everything. Excellent view of the ocean from the balcony, although the carpet needs replacing. This places needs a deep cleaning and some ceiling repairs with a fresh coat of paint and it would be great. Until then it’s great value for the location. Additionally, I recommend trashing the regular coffee pot it has growth in the water reservoir. We cleaned up a bit ourselves and enjoyed the beach and the views. That is what it’s about.

We’ve been coming to this condo since 2013 and enjoy our time here immensely. The big plus is that we can bring our Golden Retriever. We also like the location and the views of the ocean. It’s also convenient to the North Pier and Freeman Park. Although it’s an older condo, it has been renovated and serves our needs perfectly. Tim is the perfect owner in that he is always available if there are any questions or problems.

Nice Quiet Area of Carolina Beach
Great place for visiting CB with dogs. Host states they do not provide linens of any kind (including kitchen dishrag/drying towel), and since unit is up three flights of steps, it was a lot of work to carry up luggage, food, dog kennel/necessities AND all towels and bedding for our stay. Tolerable if you are fit/under 50 or staying a length of time, but difficult for a 2-3 day stay! Also fees and pet charge can/will double your cost!

This condo provided everything we needed for 2 weeks at the beach! The porch overlooks the beach perfectly and it’s a 2 minute walk to the water!!

Perfect weekend getaway
The condo is as described and had everything we need for our stay. Most important, it's oceanfront and only steps from the beach. We especially enjoyed walking down to the pier with our dog in the morning and evenings. I can't rave about the location enough; it's away from the boardwalk and peopley part of Carolina Beach but also close enough that you can easily get into that stuff too if you want. The balcony was great for beach views & chillin. We also enjoyed checking out local restaurants. Flaming Amy's, Gulfstream and Lazy Pirate were dog friendly. Bottom line, we didn't want to leave and are plotting our next trip!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Tim’s lovely beach condo. Waking up to the waves, drinking coffee on the deck, and watching for dolphins was delightful. I’m super bummed to leave and even checked the condo listing to see if it was booked for tonight as I was hoping to squeeze in one more day 😂 when we had issues with the cable and messaged Tim he got back to me within minutes. We would definitely recommend the condo and will absolutely be back!

Perfect little beach town
This was our first time visiting Carolina Beach and we absolutely fell in love with the area! The condo was a little smaller than expected but it fit our family of 3 and our large dog comfortably. The kitchen was well stocked and perfect for small meals. The washer and dryer was convenient and the storage area under the condo for chairs and umbrellas was an added bonus. The view was amazing and the location was perfect. A 5 minute walk down the beach to the pier for drinks, love music, and small bonfires on the beach. A 10 minute walk to the North End Cafe for morning coffee, breakfast sandwiches, and affordable kayak rentals. A 30 minute drive to Wilmington for a day trip and sightseeing. And a 5-10 minute drive (or 20-30 minute walk) to the boardwalk and the Kure Beach Pier. The area is very walkable and due to the price of parking, a lot of people seem to travel on foot. If you are traveling with your dog, the area is very dog friendly and welcoming to larger breeds. We had a small hiccup with parking upon arrival and Tim was wonderful. We reached out to him and he was on it! In addition, he offered area suggestions and was very easy to communicate with. He was the perfect host! We had an amazing vacation and can't wait to visit again!

Great Little Carolina Beach Getaway
Right on the beach. Enjoyed sitting in the patio, 2nd story, watching and listening to the waves break. Beautiful beach near the pier. Host was responsive and helpful. Highly recommend Freddy's Restaurant in Kure Beach for best Italian food. Be sure to make a reservation. Only complaint is the paid parking everywhere you go. It's expensive and they are serious about offenders.
