Perfect stay for extended family!
The location is amazing, close to the beach and restaurants. A park is right across the street for kids. The house was extremely clean and comfortable for 9 people, six adults and 3 young children. The outdoor area under the house was great to relax after the beach and allow the kids to safely be outside without going into the street. Would definitely stay again!

Great location that has everything!
We were across the street from the beach, one block from the pier, two blocks from the running/walking trail…and had ample parking for two cars.
The house has everything you would need. We cooked every meal for 7 adults. The refrigerator held the food, and there is a beer cooler and a wine cooler..so we were all set.
We had a problem getting the TV to connect to the local channels, and the property manager was great about helping…even on a Saturday of a holiday weekend. She saved the day since it was the season opener of college football.
Very happy! Great house.

Nice place
A lot of previous guests must have left their beach items at the house. The listing said to bring your own beach chairs, toys, towels etc., but when we arrived there was plenty available. Also the grill provided was unusable, we contacted the property management and they are aware.

All around wonderful!
This beach house was the perfect accommodation for our family. Very spacious living spaces with more than enough room. The master bed was so comfortable too. Having a rooftop to look out on all of wrightsville was a cherry on top. You can’t beat the location either! We will absolutely stay here again.
