  • Approximately 850 square feet

Welcome to Bob’s Island Retreat, your quintessential hideaway located just a block from the striking Carolina Beach. This inviting two-bedroom, two-bathroom abode is ideally placed near the entrance to Freeman Park, striking the ideal balance between a relaxing getaway and a beachside adventure.

Though the getaway once offered a slight ocean view between two distant buildings, nature’s touch has since enhanced the scene with flourishing palm trees, providing just a fleeting glimpse of the ocean’s grandeur. However, the appeal of Bob’s Island Retreat extends beyond the sea view, with two balconies that allow you to soak in the natural beauty surrounding the property. The front balcony whispers the presence of the close by ocean, while the rear balcony offers a impressive view of the marshland. Here, during particularly enormous high tides, the marsh transforms into an enchanting water landscape, creating a serene and beautiful backdrop for your stay.

Our guests have exclusive access to one of the island’s best swimming pools, known for its superb quality and calming setting, making it an ideal spot for those seeking a peaceful day of relaxation.

Pet owners will savor that Freeman Park accepts dogs to roam freely at any hour, ensuring that your furry friends can join in on the fun. On the rest of Carolina Beach, there are designated times for family pets on the beach, ensuring everybody has a moment in the sun.

Bob’s Island Retreat is equipped for comfort, featuring comfortable queen-size beds in both bedrooms and an additional twin-size air bed for an additional guest. Step out to discover multiple beach access points just a block away, ensuring your journey to the sand and surf is seamless and straightforward.

The island offers a plethora of rental options to elevate your beach experience. Whether you’re interested in exploring on a golf cart, riding the waves on a surfboard, or simply calming on a beach chair, you’ll find everything you need for a ideal day at the beach.

At Bob’s Island Retreat, every detail caters to your comfort and enjoyment, ensuring your stay is both relaxing and memorable. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful escape with gorgeous vistas of the transforming marsh or an active beach holiday filled with sun, surf, and sand, our home is primed to provide an memorable vacation experience at Carolina Beach.

Tricks and tips to get the perfect vacation home experience:

Get the best rental value:

  • Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
  • Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Booking your vacation home in Spring or Fall is a good way to save on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties.
  • Some property managers offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
  • Booking websites usually offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
  • Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitors guides that include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Narrow your rental Search:

  • To start, have your family select date ranges and a max budget.
  • Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Bob's Island retreat has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
  • Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available online. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before you book your rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out what configuration is optimal for your vacation group.
  • If your family is traveling with pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property owners charge additional pet fees.
  • Are you looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities.
  • Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.

More tips for your stay:

  • Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
  • Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
  • Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are gone, just like you would at home.
  • During arrival, record any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
  • Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
  • Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at departure. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Record a video to document the condition of the property.
  • Did your group have a terrific stay? Many rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
