This extraordinary 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 fantastic historic downtown home. Many homes in this neighborhood are historic housed converted to Duplexes. We adore 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 beautiful wood floors, woodwork, high ceilings, and turn-of-the-century charm. A outfitted kitchen and dining room table for meals, front and back decks, simple street parking, a sizable living room with two couches, comfortable beds, and the bathroom has a cute clawfoot bathtub. You have the entire place to yourself. Appreciate your morning cup of coffee on the porch swing or walk to Bespoke coffee and relaxing 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 appreciate 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 impressive 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.

Sensational downtown Wilmington. See tons of handsome homes as you walk around the neighborhood the scenery is spectacular.

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 modernized 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.

Getting the best rental home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

  • Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
  • June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Wilmington. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
  • Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
  • Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
  • Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitors guides contain offers and deals for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Choosing and booking your Southport vacation home:

  • Choose a designated group leader, select your dates, and choose a max budget.
  • Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. High Tide Historic Duplex has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
  • Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is commonly available online. Otherwise, contact the property owner before booking your home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
  • Some properties allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property management company about your furry family members before booking.
  • If there's a specific Southport beach you simply love, keep an eye out for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
  • Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental

Some things to know before you go:

  • Be sure you get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
  • Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents lots of problems.
  • Lock your vacation home while you are away. Protect your property!
  • To make certain that damages aren't linked to your family's visit, inspect for any problem areas when you arrive. E-mail the property manager immediately to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
  • Respect the neighborhood. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
  • Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected everything. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
  • Leave a review! Hosts rely on great reviews to propel future bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.

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.
