Cottage vacation rentals in Intracoastal Waterway

We had such a wonderful time at this house!! We traveled with two toddlers and a baby and felt like the house was very safe for them. They even had the best toys the kids were in love with! Chris communicated constantly and was helpful if anything came up. The back porch was dreamy for hanging once the kids were asleep. Highly recommend to any family!

There is only 1000 character limit, so I will try my best to wrap this review up. If I could give this place a million stars I absolutely would! The location was absolutely amazing, being able to walk to the beach in less than a minute alone gives this place 5 stars. The host was incredible and responded to our questions in a minute or less! The beds were fantastic, the water was nice and hot! The kitchen was incredible! I absolutely loved how the entire bottom was fenced in, our dogs got to run around have freedom! Everything we could possible need was already provided( I had brought a few things for the kitchen to use and turns out I didn’t even have too) the house was very clean, board games were provided also! I would strongly recommend this to any of my friends/family and we will definitely be coming back to stay here. If you’re considering an air bnb right on the beach, look NO FURTHER, this place is it!! Top tier! 🥰🥰🥰🥰

This place was perfect and so cute! We had everything we needed and the kids loved the hot tub! Kristy was very responsive and accommodating. We will definitely be back!

This was an absolutely perfect Topsail vacation home! We loved every minute of our stay. The location is absolutely fantastic. So close to the little local shops and restaurants as well as super close to the bridge going over to the mainland.. The house itself was spotless and quite comfortable. Had everything we needed to cook full meals. Plenty of kitchenware for our group of seven. Proximity to the beach is by far the most fantastic detail of this house! The little private sandy beach *yard* attached to the deck is awesome for kids and the beach itself just down a few steps is so amazing. We could even sit in bed and see the ocean waves! This is the best house with beach access and views we've stayed at in Topsail. Also positive to note, the entire property being fenced in felt incredibly safe for kids and was fantastic for our dog. We realized the apartment was a part of the rental unit and we were so pleasantly surprised! It was a great separate space! Overall highly recommend!

Kathie and Michael were very responsive. We needed a very late check in and they were able to communicate this to the guard at the entrance. This was a trip we needed to make last minute to visit a friend. The villa was very nice and clean. So peaceful.

This was my first time staying somewhere through Airbnb and it was such a good experience! Home was clean, on theme, and so spacious. The covered porches and hot tub make it that much better - 5 stars all around!

The space was exactly as described and Diane was super responsive and helpful. The kids loved the hot tub, there were tons of unexpected amenities (waffle maker! Cupcake liners!) which made for more breakfast and snack options. Be sure to plan for renting a car - while there is a nice restaurant next door, you’ll need it to get around. I would recommend planning a stop to the carnivorous plant garden while you’re in town!

Had a perfect weekend. Home is beautiful, comfortable, AMAZING sunrises, relaxing hottub, just a few steps to the ocean, very private. So nice not having to drag coolers etc to the beach. Just carry a chair and a beverage for a lovely day. Walk a few steps back to house if you need anything.

We really enjoyed the proximity to walking distance of all the restaurants. Our dogs enjoyed exploring the fenced in front yard. The place was perfect for our stay. We will keep this place in mind when we return to Wilmington.

Great place we enjoyed our stay even under the circumstances on what brought us to n.c.

We had a great week staying in Carolina Beach! The cottage was within walking distance to everything, which was fantastic! It was very clean and cozy! The yard was perfect for our pup (who travels with us)! Would definitely stay here again!

A lovely place I live just 3 doors down the street in the same house style. My house is being restored due to water damage. Beautifully remodeled l

We loved our week at Blue Turtle Cottage! It’s bright, clean and charming. Just a short walk to the beach. Leslie and Kay were lovely hosts. We’d definitely come back if our plans bring us to OKI. The king bed is super comfy!. Thanks for hosting us! 💙🐢

Great location, easy access to so much, enjoyed working with host/hostess, responsive, flexible , and easy to communicate with.

We absolutely loved this place and intend to book it again. The house was perfect and clean and had all sorts of amenities for us to use for the beach and cute touches to make the stay comfortable for us, our baby, and our dog. 10/10 would recommend!

This place is very convenient when staying with a pet. Close to downtown Charleston with easy access to many of the restaurants and tourist areas (10-20 minute drive, depending on traffic) quiet, safe neighborhood, Whole Foods close by. Highly recommend if you are looking for an affordable place that is pet friendly.

I decided last minute to do a solo trip to oak island for the weekend and I don’t think I could’ve picked a better place! The location was perfect, it was conveniently located to restaurants and a nice Publix for groceries. The walk to the beach was very manageable and actually enjoyable since you go over a beautiful scenic walkway. The cottage itself was cozy and quiet, the screened in porch was perfect for reading. Plus the hosts were so friendly and helpful! I am already looking at my calendar to see when I can squeeze in another stay this summer!

My husband, pup, and I traveled to Jacksonville, NC to visit our Marine, his wife, and their new baby. The home was beautiful, clean, well stocked and very comfortable. The expansive outdoor area made it feel as though you were in the middle of nowhere, yet in reality you are close to everything (restaurants, grocery, gas, etc...). The huge walk in shower has made me rethink my own bathroom, as I would love to have something similar in my home. Cathy, the host, was always available and checked in on us to make sure we had everything we needed. If available, we will definitely stay here again next time we travel to the Jacksonville area.

This was a great place to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the city for a few days but still close enough to anything you may want to visit. The hosts were very nice people to meet, and our kids loved them as well!

This cottage on pages creek was stunning, peaceful, full of nature and relaxing. Every detail was thought of, a very pleasant restful visit and an oasis at this destination!

Our stay here was wonderful! We were within walking distance to the best parts of downtown Morehead City! Elizabeth was extremely accommodating, allowing for us to have both an early check in and a late check out. We had some trouble with the door lock but Elizabeth was able to rectify it very quickly! We would love to stay here again!

We and our dog Sammie absolutely loved our stay! The beautiful and peaceful farmhouse was exactly as listed—spotlessly clean and fully equipped with everything we needed. It was so relaxing watching all the animals around the property. The host was quick to respond to any questions, and both they and the handyman were incredibly friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

Super cute place! Had very nice appliances and was decorated nicely. The fan in the bedroom next to the balcony was very slow and it was kind of hot at night. And for anyone staying with kids, there are two small beds and one blow up mattress. The beds were a little smaller than expected but im glad the blow up mattress was there. Overall, really quiet place and felt safe. Would recommend!

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Nice private location within driving distance of base, the gym, and parks all things I was looking for. Debra was very friendly and responsive and had chocolate cake waiting for me upon arrival! Would stay here again!
