House rentals with a kayak

Sanctuary on canals-coffee bar, dock, kayaks!
Michael has a lovely clean home with lots of things to do. Would definitely stay here again!

"TopsailVacay" Pet Friendly Home, Walk to Beach!
Michelle’s home is pristinely clean and beautiful! The layout is perfect for a group. The elevator was so helpful for my ADA needs, as well as in general for our groceries and luggage. Between the two decks and fenced backyard, there are multiple outdoor ocean side options for relaxing, meals, or games. Our group also really enjoyed the kayak. Michelle is a great communicator and so hospitable. Highly recommend, and we look forward to a future stay.

Lauren's Dream - Family & Pet Friendly Home in OKI
Great place to hangout at and enjoy family. Our dogs loved the backyard. Really would consider staying in the future.

Kayaks, Private Beach Access, Dock, Game room!
Very nice spot in Surf City, very spacious and conveniently located, near most of places in town and to Topsail and other beches for day trips. The house is well stock with all essentials you need for weekend break and even more, just perfect for up to two families with kids, my kids always enjoy bunk beds and games. Kayaks were a plus, all in good shape and dock is very near just to walk. Nick was very responsive and prompt for any questions, will return when visiting Wilmington.

Waterfront House Near The Beach
LOVE LOVE LOVED this place. Slade was amazing to work with as well! He responded quickly! Had an amazing weekend!

SongBird Nest w/ outdoor hangout near DT & Beach
Monica's place was great, and Monica is super friendly! I love an old home and this one is super cute! It was clean, and the beds were so comfy. If we are ever in Wilmington in the future, I would definitely book Monica's place again.

Canal, Boat Dock, Quick Beach Access
Can't say enough about this BnB! We travel a whole lot and often with our pups. This place was perfect for relaxing at the beach with our dogs - it's fenced and clearly set up for furbabies - even an extra leash and poop bags as well as a ball and some bowls. Many beach places smell a little due to moisture and this place did not at all! It is well laid out for multiple guests too. The labeled kitchen supplies were awesome and everything was in order and made sense. We loved relaxing on the deck overlooking the canal, the extremely short walk to the beach, the very comfy couches and having a general store so close. The hosts were responsive and helpful. Definitely 5 stars! We love a place that is privately owned vs owned by a corporate company and we could tell this beach home is well cherished. Thank you for sharing it with us!!

The Kure at Carolina Beach!
We have a Amazing time, we definitely need to comeback to this beautiful place!
Cottage rentals with a kayak

Carolyn's Lighthouse a Bright Spot on the Horizon
Great location off the beaten path but still close to all the stores, restaurants, and coastal activities. Very quiet and peaceful. Everything we needed to enjoy a stress free and relaxing holiday with our family of 6. Richard reached out ahead of time to allow early check-in and make sure we had everything we needed. Excellent option if you’re looking for an alternative to the traditional "beach rental"

Canady House Cottage by the Water
Steve and Hannah’s home was perfect for a family get away. The house was cozy and had beautiful sunrise and sunset views!

Coastal Country Cottage
This cozy cottage was exactly what my daughter and I needed for a weekend away in a secluded setting on their property. Charlene was a gracious host and the amenities in this cozy cottage were impeccable! It was super inviting, modern, and had all the things that you needed including very appreciated basket of snacks upon arrival. My daughter and I really enjoyed using the gym next-door and then headed out toward Wrightsville Beach the next day. We enjoyed the fire pit at night with provided firewood on the cute patio with the string lights and peaceful sounds of nature. Grocery stores were easily 5 to 10 minutes away and Wilmington was a good 15-20 minute ride. Topsail was 25 minutes in the other direction and we loved visiting there as well. The property is huge and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this wonderful cottage! Great stay overall!

Sunset Sound Cottage
As advertised! Would recommend and hope to return. Everything was great! There is not one negative I can think of. One of the best places we have stayed through Air BnB. Sue was a great host, super clean, comfy beds, plenty of space, well equipped kitchen, excellent location.

A Turtle's View-Waterfront-Dock-Kayaks-Paddle Boar
We had a great long weekend stay. The house exceeded our expectations, was spacious and the views were incredible. Only a half mile drive to the bridge leading to the surf city pier.

ICW Waterfront Beach Cottage - Sleeps 9!
We loved everything about his place. My grandkids loved the dock because they could fish right in the backyard and we could see them from the back decks. We saw dolphins a few morning and even saw a stingray from the dock. Frederick was an awesome host. We would love to come back early spring or fall so they could catch some fish. Thank you we made some great memories! Beautiful and so peaceful!

Cottage under Oaks, quiet street w/ dock, Kayaks
We had the best time at Mike's place. It smelled so fresh and clean when we walked in. My kids LOVED the place! My youngest (6) loved the toys and games. We loved walking down to the dock and fishing. This was a very last minute booking. We were staying at Myrtle and decided the morning of check out to drive down to OKI and spend a few days. OKI is like our 2nd home. I got on AirBNB and found Mikes place. Mike was super quick to respond and even let us check in a little early. He checked on us throughout our stay and made sure things were ok. Awesome host, house and vacation spot! We will definitely be back!

Coastal Cottage with Private Dock
I cannot recommend this place enough! the reason we chose this spot was the dock and yard for kids to play. there are plenty of beach front properties to choose from in the area but this place is special. a home away from home. the options for outside relaxing were amazing and truly offered spaces for fun and fostering connection with each other. we played wifle ball, flew kites, and took out the kayaks for an adventure of a life time exploring the near by islands and shallow water ways across the bay. every day was full of adventure, shell treasures, and ended with porch sitting and corn hole. our hearts were full and truly sad to leave. I'm already planning our next visit.
