Absolutely beautiful view on the lake, and Shelia was a great host! Comfortable beds and sofa, plenty of space, and love the decorations and dedication to Carolina Beach's history (the island is changing so much). The house feels like home, and we look forward to visiting again in the future.

My wife, English Mastiff and I decided on a weekend away and could not have been more pleased with the property. Great location, blocks from the boardwalk, bars and restaurants, the vast majority of which had outdoor seating and were dog friendly. Had a number of touch points with the host Shelia, both live and electonically, so communication was great as well.Highly recommend a visit!

We loved our stay here! It had a great view of the Thursday night fireworks and we loved sitting on the porch, enjoying the breeze. It was close to the new playground and Farmer's Market, as well as Squigleys and the beach. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen/living area was a great place to hang out. The host was also very responsive and kind. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay! The house was clean and cozy and Shelia was great. Loved that we could walk from the house to restaurants, the beach, the boardwalk and to get ice cream. Our dog enjoyed our morning and evening walks around the lake. We were also a short drive from Fort Fisher (there’s a nice beach there) and the NC Aquarium and about 25 - 35 minutes from Wilmington and Wrightsville beach. We would definitely stay here again.

Beach fun

We had the best time, the location is amazing everything is within walking distance. We enjoyed coffee on the porch with a great view of the fountains on the lake, so peaceful and relaxing. Sheila is the absolute best hostess, responds quickly and will take care of every concern you may have. One of the kiddos left behind her special stuffy (wade) and Sheila sent it to her We will definitely be booking again in the near future.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location
We loved the location and Shelia was very friendly! Sheila and her son live in the other side of this duplex type condo/building. We were a little disappointed because the listing did not detail that the outdoor main porch and bottom yard area are shared with the host and family. They were never on the main porch but were often out in the connecting yard area in the evenings and at night. We chose not to go out because we aren’t very social and were expecting private outdoor space based on the listing.The main keypad is also not fully functional due to weathering of the door so we were initially told to just leave it unlocked but I did end up asking for a key and was given one the same day, so no big deal. I do think the key should automatically be given to guests on arrival instead of having to ask.
