Livin' Simply

"We enjoyed this home so much! It was well stocked and the location was wonderful. The beach front at our access point was easy to get to, perfect for playing in the water and not too crowded. We enjoyed the Fort fisher area since it was only a jog or bike ride away. We also tried out the local donut shops and enjoyed Britts Donuts and Wake n Bake. "

"Overall, we had a great time and the location and layout of this property was great. We were a little suprised by the lack of cleaning given the current COVID-19 environment. I'm confident the property was disinfected but we found sand and dirt all over the main level and in the bathrooms. The property had a new dishwasher that wasn't installed properly and the screen door broke. We called the management company and they offered to send someone immediately but I said no rush and he came the next day while we were at the beach. The ice maker is extremely slow! I think the tenants who checked out the morning we checked in took all the ice and it never caught up. Bring a bag of ice for coolers and drinks. Lots of beach gear/toys in the garage left behind from previous tenants."

"Our two families (2 kids each) loved staying at this house. Very comfy and plenty of space. Beach was a short walk away, and the house had some toys, chairs, etc for us to borrow which was great. The only complaint we had was the master bed mattress was pretty uncomfortable. Overall, We thought this house was a great value and we would happily stay again. "

"This house was an excellent choice for our annual family vacation. There was plenty of room for our family of 9. The bedrooms are spacious and the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed and more. The house was so well stocked that we literally could have shown up with our clothes and nothing else. The location is excellent. The community has a private gated beach entrance with a bathroom. It requires code access, so be sure to read your packet before heading to the beach. We would definitely stay here again in the future. "

"Had a wonderful time with family at a great Beach House that provided great space and amenities for us."

"The House was adequate but needs to be updated. There were broken tiles in the shower and the carpets were very dirty. As well the place mats and runner in the kitchen table were stained and dirty. The location was great. The rocks were lovely but could be better with more comfortable furniture and ceiling fans. Overall, a good rental but we’d chose a different house next time. "

"My Family and I enjoyed a relaxing week at the beach together creating memories we will cherish forever. The house was spacious for all of us, offered all the amenities we needed, and we enjoyed several evenings on the deck overlooking the beach. "

"This is a very comfortable, spacious home with an ocean view and an easy walk to the beach. All but one bedroom has queen/king beds, so it is very suitable for multiple adults. While we would happily stay here again, we were the first family to rent for the season and experienced a few glitches: the water heater was not turned on, the icemaker was jammed and never fully functioned, the dryer guard was broken and did not dry clothes well, a toilet had not been properly cleaned for a very long time, the garage was extremely musty, and the access code to the private beach had changed from the previous year. We also missed having a grill. It was difficult to contact Intracoastal Realty prior to our stay: the email link did not work, a rep from the office promised to call back with information and didn't. We have been renting beach homes for many years, and this the first time we have had any issues. The private beach was great, the restroom was spotless, we were the only beach with a lifeguard. Sitting on the decks in the morning sun and afternoon breeze was very relaxing. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware, gadgets, and spices. The family room was very comfortable. the location is residential, but restaurants and boardwalks are nearby. "

"Very relaxing and enjoyable stay at a beautiful location. Lovely house - wonderful decks and great layout,"

"Clean and comfortable. Great beach access except could not locate access key. But that didn't matter. Son in Air Force stationed in North Dakota down for some sunshine with his family and local kids and mom. A wonderful getaway. Would rent again if it is available in a heartbeat."

"Very nice,modern, clean house, just a short walk to beach or drive to private beach access. It is basically a third row house but due to the beach access and lack of second row development there is a decent ocean view especially from the upstairs porch. Very large master bedroom and bathroom, other bedroom s are also roomy enough. Kitchen was well stocked, modern appliances. My only complaint was there is no exhaust hood over stove so cooking really smells up the downstairs. Use of the 2 car garage was great. Great house overall and I would stay here again"

"Very nice updated home with plenty of room. I like to cook some and the wished the house had more staples, spices & etc. Other than that we loved the house. We will be back. "

"We had a great trip. First time to Kure Beach and really liked the beach and restaurants. Our home was lovely and met our needs perfectly. I do think the next trip we would like to have a place with a pool. Fortunately we had family right down the beach where we spent our days and the kids were able to use their pool. "

"Had a great time!"
