Our beach front 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom condo is available and ready for your beach vacation!

Summer stays less than 7 nights will be considered beginning in June.

Check-in time is 4:00 PM and check-out is 10:00 AM.

Located adjacent to Freeman Park and north of the Carolina Beach boardwalk area, you'll have everything you need for a fun vacation. Our condo is located in an independent 6 unit structure that has parking for three cars, including a one car garage. Private beach access keeps our area a bit more secluded and quieter than other places. The condo is on the raised first floor, which makes the loading up part of your vacation less grueling and time consuming without sacrificing the handsome ocean view from the enormous covered porch with plenty of seating.

In 2024, we refreshed the master bathroom! The new bathroom includes a bespoke tiled shower, new impressive floor, new vanity, backlit mirror, and shining light. Check out the new photos.

In 2022, we updated the patio furnishings, living room furnishings, and upgraded three appliances in the kitchen. Be sure to check out the photos. You'll find open living space with a full kitchen ready for cooking light or big meals, dining space, and living room. The unit has 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms with one bath off the master bedroom. Both baths have shower stalls. The hall bath was completely modernized in 2020 with an upsized, bespoke tile shower. All beds have been replaced over the past three years. Everything your family, a group of friends, or three couples need for a great get away at the beach.

Outside, you'll find an upsized covered deck for outside enjoyment without having to head down to the beach. Our deck has a patio table and four chairs for dining on one side. On the other side, there's a patio loveseat, table, and four lounge chairs for your relaxation and conversation. There's even festive lights to appreciate the deck any time of day or evening.

A linen package is included in all units from our cleaning service. All bed sheets and bath and kitchen towels will be delivered and set up before your stay. No making up beds when you get here! Beach towels are available to use, but must be washed and dried before leaving, or you can bring your own.

Our story- Soon after purchasing this unit in 2016, we began updating the interior. In 2020, we completely remodeled the hall bathroom adding an upsized bespoke tile shower, installed a new secure storm door, and replaced the queen bed and bed in two bedrooms with new hybrid spring-foam bed. In 2022, we replaced nearly all the outdoor furnishings on the deck, living room furnishings, and kitchen appliances. In 2024, we updated the master bathroom completely adding a little bling and luxury to the space. We use the off season to continually update our place. You are renting directly from us, the owners.

During the summer season, we accept requests that are at least 7 nights. We will accept check-in and out on any day of the week.

Strategies for getting the perfect vacation home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Southport area. To find the best value, consider shifting your vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property management companies often offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines have discounts for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Start by choosing vacation dates and a budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family requires. Beach Front w\/ Private Access and Great Ocean Views! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the property manager before you book your home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what bed configuration is best for your group.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Pet fees or costs may be applied to your agreement.
• If there's a particular Southport beach you simply love, keep an eye out for properties that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your .
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many problems.
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if there is a dispute.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious visitors disrupting your life at home. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would've never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a excellent vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
