This impressive historic home is where we live and yours to savor. Your part is the entire first floor of this converted Duplex. You have your own entrance and plenty of privacy so relax and find out why we adore it! Convenient parking and no need for an Uber or your car. This unique and cheerful space is ideal for travelers looking for a place that has its own character and appeal. Our space is also kid-friendly and great for families.

This is the first floor of an spectacular historic downtown home. Many homes in this neighborhood are historic housed converted to Duplexes. We appreciate walking around and checking out the other homes! We live upstairs and you'll have the whole first floor to yourself. We usually come and go by the back door so, the front and your back door are used solely entirely by you.

We fell in adore with this home because of the alluring wood floors, woodwork, high ceilings, and turn-of-the-century charm. A supplied kitchen and dining room table for meals, front and back decks, simple street parking, a huge living room with two couches, comfortable beds, and the bathroom has a cute clawfoot bathtub. You have the entire place to yourself. Savor your morning cup of coffee on the porch swing or walk to Bespoke coffee and calming downtown Wilmington for breakfast.

It's a great old home and it's a wood home. You're going to hear us walking around and sometimes even being a little loud with a friend or two (at reasonable hours of course). You'll hear us get up in the morning and get our son ready for school at 6:30am. If you're a really light sleeper or hate mornings, you might not want to book this place. Although we have a no partying rule, we understand that you're on vacation and you may make some noise or come home late after walking downtown. It's ok, just appreciate yourself. If you're too noisy, we'll just message you and ask you too tone it down. You can do the same for us. Just be happy!

This great old home has a front and back porch on both the first and second floor! We enjoy calming on the second floor porches so the first floor is mostly yours to use anytime. Lots of our guests appreciate swinging on the porch swing and appreciating the mornings. We appreciate that they adore it!

Please do not use the driveway. It's just a tiny driveway between two homes and barely fits a car. We park in the back and there are not any additional spaces there. However, there is a ton of complimentary street parking and, unless there is a major festival, you will never have any trouble finding a spot right in front of the home. Note: The neighbor in the green and yellow home next door is really sensitive about people parking in front of his home. Please help us keep the neighborhood happy and park anywhere but in front of the green and yellow neighbors home.

We are here if you need us, invisible if you don't. You can check in anytime with the keypad lock and start relaxing! We'll likely text you during your stay to let you know we are available. If I don't hear from you, we will assume you're happy!

We chose this home because of its magnificant historic charm and its location is the best. It's a neighborhood right in downtown. All the homes are nice and so is this one. You're going to appreciate it! Just a short walk to downtown, eateries, bars, entertainment, the riverfront, museums, historic tours.

Charming downtown Wilmington. See tons of elegant homes as you walk around the neighborhood the scenery is extraordinary.

You can walk pretty much everywhere, this is a prime location.
We are 15 mins. to the beaches and a 5 min walk to the river walk. We're on Princess street so a strait walk, 4 blocks will get you directly in the center of Downtown Wilmington.

We have a self check in process that is painless and convenient. We provide a code on your arrival date for the keypad on the door as well as your private entrance.

This is an old home and for some, that's part of the charm. We have proudly remodeled and decorated it, and kept its original fixtures when possible. If you like old homes, wood floors, cool lights and light switches, this is your jam. If you see older homes as ugly and cumbersome, this is not your place- please feel complimentary to check out some of our more modern listings.

You will find some water and snacks when you arrive.

The TV is a Roku TV. You can log into your favorite subscriptions and enjoy your favorites channels from home.

Checkout: Checkout is 11am, but we can offer late checkout as availability accepts. 12pm checkout is $20, and 1pm checkout is $30. Please contact us first and if we can accommodate your late checkout, we will be happy to.

Tricks and tips to get the optimal rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

  • Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
  • Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Reserve your rental home in Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds.
  • Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
  • Property management companies often offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
  • Many property management companies supply Southport area travel guides which often include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to choose the best rental home:

  • Begin by selecting your the best vacation week and a budget.
  • Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. High Tide Historic Duplex has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
  • Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property management company before you reserve the home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms.
  • Some properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property management company about pets before booking.
  • Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
  • Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

Have a wonderful stay:

  • Add the host's phone number to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
  • Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents many concerns.
  • Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would at home.
  • Note any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if damages are attributed to your stay.
  • Respect the neighborhood. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
  • When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget any personal items. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Walk through the property one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
  • Did your group have a terrific time? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.

Victory Beach Vacations

Visitors who are on the hunt for the postcard-perfect vacation rental in the heart of the Carolina Beach or Kure Beach area will find an enticing selection and plenty of friendly customer service when they rent through Victory Beach Vacations. Based in Carolina Beach in the coastal Cape Fear region, Victory Beach Vacations has more than 100 vacation rentals in all shapes and sizes to ensure that every vacationing family can find their dream home away from home on the beach.   When you book your Cape Fear getaway with Victory Beach Vacations, the fun doesn’t end when you leave the beach, it continues with an array of privately-owned properties outfitted with all of the amenities needed for a fabulous beach vacation.   Jenna Lanier, General Manager, explains that her family first opened the rental and property management business in 2002. At the forefront of Victory Beach operations is Lanier’s mother, Caroline Meeks. Meeks is both the Broker in Charge and co-owner with husband, Buck Meeks, who manages the Field Services team with Lanier’s husband, Scott.   For nearly 20 years, the Victory Beach team has worked tirelessly to establish a network of top-of-the-line rental properties for Cape Fear visitors to enjoy. “As far as our properties go,” explains Lanier, “they are all updated, well-furnished and appointed. “We have always performed post-cleaning inspections and since the pandemic, have put freshly laundered duvets over all of the comforters between rentals.”   Lanier emphasizes how important the guests experience is “we strive to give our guests a relaxing, stress free, memorable vacation.” This emphasis on customer service has led to Victory Beach Vacations having a 4.8 Google rating with over 300 reviews by happy owners and guests.In addition to Victory Beach’s superior sanitation practices, the company offers properties for every type of visitor. Choose from luxury oceanfront houses and condos to more reasonbly priced 2nd row properties with oceanviews. Many properties include pools and hot tubs as well, perfect for outdoor entertaining, and many are dog friendly.   Lanier also notes that all properties are within walking or driving distance to Pleasure Island’s main attractions – Carolina Beach and Kure Beach. The former, as described by Lanier, is the more commercialized of the two destinations and features a boardwalk, outdoor dining options and a plethora of weekly activities including fireworks, live music, amusement park pop-ups, and movies under the stars. Kure Beach offers a more residential feel with its fishing pier, intimate restaurants and family favorite, North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher.More water fun awaits, too. “There is a harbor and a canal that feed into the intercoastal. We have several properties on the harbor so guests can bring their boat, kayak, [or jet ski] and travel between islands,” says Lanier.   A stay with Victory Beach Vacations is an annual pilgrimage for most. “A large percentage of guests are previous guests. Some even reserve the same property for the next year as they’re checking out,” Lanier says. “It’s almost like it’s their personal vacation home.”   Even before guests arrive at their vacation destination, the Victory Beach Vacations’ website greets them with a live beach cam and exquisite aerial footage of both Carolina and Kure Beaches.
