“Place Cottage” is the place to enjoy a peaceful and calming family vacation. This charmingly furnished 6-bedroom, 3 bath single family home has unobstructed vistas of the ocean and a roof top deck that offers expansive vistas of the beach. The broad outdoor space is ideally suited for grilling out, entertaining family, or a game of corn hole. The private road with no public parking will make you feel as though you have the beach to yourself and there is a semi-private path that leads to the least busy part of the island. This home has a lot to offer!

The first living level features a additional living space that includes a queen sleeper couch. The living room is outfitted with a huge flatscreen TV that includes basic cable service and some streaming channels. The first guest room is furnished with a pyramid bunk bed (twin over full) and includes a twin-size trundle bed to accommodate additional guests. A second bunk room features a traditional bunk bed (twin over twin), a pyramid bunk bed (twin over full) and each bunk includes a twin trundle bed. A full bathroom makes this space a ideal in-law suite, hideaway for teenagers, or accommodate for anyone who wants a little more privacy. Unwind outside under the covered porch area in the shade or venture up to the main deck to take in the sunshine.

Take the spiral staircase up to the main living level to join in on the impressive vistas and enjoy the enormous gathering space. An open floor plan makes the great room an exceptional place to congregate for movie nights, family dinners, or evening board games. The living room offers numerous comfortable seating options and a 65-inch roku TV. Double sliding glass doors lead out to the ocean facing deck and provide the ideal back drop for your favorite home cooked meal. An exterior spiral staircase will guide you to the roof top deck with countless breezes and expansive vistas. Appreciate relaxing around in the sunshine, outdoor dining, or rocking in the breeze with your favorite cold drink.

Down the hall you will find two bathrooms that serve the four bedrooms on the main level. The first guest room has a sizable king bed and offers a roku TV and roll away twin bed for additional occupants. Next door is the primary bedroom which sports a king bed. The primary bedroom features direct access to the shared hall bathroom and is outfitted with a 43-inch roku TV. Across the hall are two additional guest bedrooms, one with a king bed and the other with a queen bed. These two guest rooms share access to a jack and jill bathroom and are both furnished with Roku TV’s. Each bedroom on the main floor homes a stow away twin-size bed that can be used to accommodate families or groups with varying linens configuration needs.

Although “Place Cottage” is technically the third home back from the beach front, the unique staggered tons on the north end of the island ensure picture ideal vistas and a greater feeling of privacy. With ample parking, outdoor space to relax and play in the sun, multiple living levels, your family will not be disappointed by this vacation spot. So, pack your bags and make this unique home your new family tradition!

How to find the best rental home experience:

When to go & When to reserve a Wilmington, NC rental home:

  • Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
  • To get the best value, try shifting your vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer great weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic.
  • Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
  • Booking websites often offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
  • Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides contain discounts for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Filter your rental search:

  • Begin by selecting your the best vacation week and a budget.
  • Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Spacious family home w unobstructed ocean views! has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
  • Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is usually accessible online. If they are not listed, reach out to the host before booking the vacation property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is right for your vacation.
  • Remember to include your furry companions! Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or charges may be applied to your invoice.
  • If there's an individual Wilmington, NC attraction you crave, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
  • Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Additional considerations:

  • Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
  • Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
  • Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would at home.
  • Make a record of any damages to the property at check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
  • Respect your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
  • Re-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Inspect the rental a final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, remember to take pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
  • Leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent feedback to compel more reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix 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.
