Great weekend
This beach house in Kure Beach is a perfect retreat! Stylish and spacious. Direct beach access requires a 7-minute walk, but it’s worth it for the beautiful sand and surf. The kitchen is well-equipped, and the bedrooms are very comfortable. The deck and outdoor space are great for relaxing and dining. Communication with Margaret was excellent—she was responsive and helpful. We loved our stay and will return!

Summer Family Vacation
Our stay was wonderful! The property was very nice with plenty of room for all. The owner and property manager was easy to communicate with and prompt to answer our questions. The location to the beach was great. It’s about a ten minute walk, but we would pack up for the day and make the trip to spend several hours or more at the beach each day. There are public restrooms and showers by the beach. It’s a great set up. Tons of great local area restaurants to check out in the area, too! We had so much fun and things to do that we didn’t turn on a television once during our ten day stay. We’ll be back. Loved the property, Kure and Carolina Beaches, and the place in general! Hope to return!

Great location and well appointed house
I took my high school senior and five of his friends to the beach for a long weekend to celebrate their graduation. The house was set up well for friends or family who don't mind sharing rooms and/or beds. The house is in very good shape and nicely decorated but not overdone. The kitchen had a ton of resources though some of the items in the cupboards were dirty, so we had to clean a bit to prepare food. Definitely bring your own pillow if you're a challenged sleeper as the pillows were very thin/flat. But the mattresses were comfortable and the linens were fine. The bedrooms could use blackout curtains, but that's more of a personal preference from someone who needs a very dark room to sleep well. 😂 Very comfortable living room for socializing and playing games. Communication with the host was easy and clear. Margaret was very responsive each time I messaged and in advance of the trip. It's a very easy walk to Kure Beach, and the neighborhood felt friendly. Rinsing off using the outside shower and waterhose was easy upon returning to the house after being at the beach. All in all, a great place to stay, and I'll likely return with my husband and two other kids at some point.

Relaxing stay in a quiet neighborhood!
The Mackerel Lane townhouse was a great getaway for us! Set back just far enough in a quiet neighborhood, but also just a few short minutes walk to the public beach access! The townhouse was clean, well appointed, and well stocked! Margaret was accommodating, welcoming, and very easy to communicate with! The location was super convenient! Nearly all points of Carolina and Kure beach are reachable in an easy 10 minute drive. I should also note that Margaret was accommodating of our PHEV and allowed us to charge during out stay. We enjoyed every minute of our stay, and would absolutely stay there again!

Home Away From Home
We stayed here for a week in the spring and my children could not wait to come back. It’s perfectly located in a quiet neighborhood but still close enough to the beach access and boardwalk. The house is always pristine in it’s cleanliness and the comfort cannot be matched. The owners are exceptional with their communication. We could not ask for a better home away from home to stay in.

Great Home and Beach Location!
Family trip from Idaho to North Carolina to drop off some family members at Duke University. There were 6 of us and we had never experienced the North Carolina Coast. We feel fortunate that we were able to find this home! It was only a few blocks from the beach and had plenty of room to spread out for all of us. Carolina Beach and Kure beach were both amazing. We would definitely stay at this property again!

Quiet anf comfortable
We got there and it was very clean and fully stocked with cleaning supplies. The only negatives were water pressure and no plunger so we had to go buy one. The A/C stopped running cold but the property manager sent a repair man and it was up and running cold in less than an hour. It was very quiet, the neighbors were nice and it was spacious for everyone to spread out.
