The Quiet Carriage home was crafted from reclaimed and repurposed materials. When staying at the Carriage House, the beach and Wilmingtons' attractions are yours for the taking. If you are boycotting another short term rental platform, the host sympathizes and offers a rental option here on Vacation Rental By Owner. Guests often remark that it is like living in a relaxing treehouse. The high ceiling, artistic quirkiness and natural light are complimented by the mild and generous Carolina Blue Skies. A guest hot tub and fire pit enhance the gentle cooler months and the beach and Downtown Riverwalk are just a short drive away. The ever blooming and expanding garden is open for enjoyment and herbs are there for the picking. Wilmington offers superb dining experiences. Outdoor adventures, both on land and water, abound and the local Ghost Tour's focus on so much local history while digging up the past! Historic sites, leisurely neighborhood walks, bird watching, farmers market, local coffee stores, brewery's and tons of place to shop and visit, provide entertainment and quality of life. Wilmington is ideal all year round. Inclement weather is very rare. The Carriage House is located in the Princess Place Neighborhood, next to Burnt Mill Creek -a bird watchers heaven. It is 1.5 miles to Downtown Wilmington and the Riverwalk and 7 miles to the Beach. Snowbirds and travel nomads know that Wilmington is phenomenal year round. The Carriage home is ideal for business travelers and has high speed internet and is in close to the airport ILM (2 miles), which offers direct flights 10+ major cities and is serviced by numerous major airlines including American, United and Delta.

There is a comfortable king size bed in the bedroom. The couch in the living room will fold down to a twin size bed with a memory foam topper for sleeping comfort. I will make up the couch bed for you, so let me know if you plan to use it. There is one bathroom with a shower. The kitchen has a stove and oven, microwave, refrigerator, a NINJA Duo coffee maker which makes either a pot or Keurig cup serving (a cafe press is available upon request). There is also an electric tea kettle. Essentially, you have a separate one bedroom apartment with a kitchen-and open living area with a back deck and a screened porch at the entry. The Carriage House is ideal for a couple or for two friends visiting Wilmington. I do allow additional occupancy for one kid (18 years or younger) accompanying a parental unit. 2 modest kids under 6 would also be acceptable. A modest dog would be welcome, if kept on a leash in the yard, until successfully introduced to my cats and dog.

There is a deck, equipped with a sun awning, 2 rockers and a bistro table. the deck looks out over the backyard and fire pit. There is a screened front porch with a couch and privacy screen for morning coffee, evening card games or a nice chat on the phone with a family member or friend, al fresco.

A 4 man hot tub for guests in the garden. You can see it outside your living room window . In the summer, the hot tub area will be screened in for your comfort. A fire pit in the backyard adds to the seasonal ambiance of Fall and Winter in a temperate climate or just to appreciate while roasting marshmallows. Beach Chairs, towels, body boards and an umbrella are supplied for beach excursions.

Strategies for getting the perfect Wilmington, NC rental experience:

Finding the best rental value:

  • Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserve your vacation in the Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
  • Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
  • Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your family qualifies for a price reduction.
  • Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
  • Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, travel guide magazines contain deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Selecting the best vacation home in the Wilmington, NC area:

  • To start, have your group commit to the best dates and a budget.
  • Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. All Season Comfort at the Carriage House in Wilmington. Booking now for Winter ! has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wilmington, NC vacation rental search.
  • Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property manager before booking the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to work out what bed configuration is suitable for your group.
  • If there's a particular Wilmington, NC destination you are crazy about, search for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
  • Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
  • Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or may be applied to your agreement.

Advice for your stay:

  • Take a copy of the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Put the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
  • To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas when you arrive. Make contact with the property manager immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
  • Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents many problems.
  • Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your peace and quiet. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
  • Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would back home.
  • Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
  • Did you have a great time? Many rental managers make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.

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.
