Welcome to our family beach home, with a partial sea view from the back deck and a front porch shaded by oak trees.

Appreciate pretty sunrises over the close by pier and spectacular sunsets along the beach. This ideal location is a short walk to eateries, coffee stores, and more! AND you’re just a 15-min. drive from the town of Southport or a 45-min. drive from the beach city of Wilmington, both historical locations with more waterside eateries and tons of family activities. So much to do - book while you can!

Our bungalow is a single story home with an open and airy feel. The main highlights are a sizable shaded front porch and sunny open back deck with peek-a-boo vistas of the ocean. Savor rocking on the decks or sitting on the swing seat and listening to the calming sound of the waves crashing on the beach.

The cozy historic town of Southport is 6 miles away and offers something fun for everybody! Boat tours, ferry to Bald Head Island, Waterfront Park, and a variety of waterfront eateries.
