I can't tell you how much I enjoyed my stay here. The location was prime! The living/dining area was far larger than the pictures really show - but we spent all our time outside. There is so much to see and do nearby, being bored is impossible. You can go to the beach in front of the building(s), but we liked the beach that is a tiny bit of a walk towards Fort Fisher. A little farther down is another beach with a lifeguard. Or there is the pier or other areas for public parking. In short, you have many options.
This seems to be an older property, and you can see some age, but that was perfectly acceptable. It was clean and well-taken care of.
The host provided odds and ends such as beach chairs, pool noodle, etc. - much appreciated! I think I saw a deck of cards somewhere; possibly a few other games would be nice. There were only 2 of us, so we were good on towels, but a few more would be appropriate I think. I would have liked to try the bikes out, but they seemed kind of rusty and I wasn't sure of the overall upkeep so I passed on that. Plenty of pans and dishes. Great hair dryer - no iron. Bring your own pillows.
Be prepared to have to write a note to put on your dashboard re your rental to prevent towing. Or, the host could leave a pre-written note for the guest to fully ensure a perfect stay.
