The Perfect Spot
We had a wonderful stay in a lovely home. The home was very comfortable with nice furnishings throughout. The beds were soft and comfortable. The neighborhood is close to everything including the beach, and all of the neighbors were very friendly. The home is clean and spacious for being a smaller home. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this location. We would love to make this an annual place to stay. Amy was very helpful and available to answer any questions. What a great time!

Terrific experience
We loved our stay at "FishTales". The house is adorable, and exactly like the description. It is well stocked; the owners have thought of everything. It really felt like home. We loved walking around the neighborhood, too. The back yard was perfect for our little dog. The owner was very responsive, too. Look forward to staying here again.

Comfortable stay
This cottage was perfect for myself and another couple. The fenced back yard was ideal for their two dogs. We also appreciated the comfortable living room with lots of seating, its well stocked kitchen, and the convenient location. The State Park, beach, and restaurants were all a short walk away.
Communication was exceptionally helpful and responsive.

Second stay here and just as great as the first !
My family and pets stayed here for the second time. I have never rebooked the same home for vacation but this one is perfect and still deserves 10 stars ! The owner is great with communication. My kids loved that it had a golf cart so we didn’t use our personal vehicle much once we arrived. I would stay again ! I love the fenced in yard as well as we had two dogs.

Family weekend at Carolina Beach
The property was a few blocks from the beach, so we had to drive and park. But it's in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of room to walk dogs and ride bikes. Enjoyed our stay.

Responsive Hosts
Even though we had to hunker down during the tropical storm, this house met our needs perfectly. The owners were more than accommodating when we were a bit concerned about the rising water.
The house is comfortable and the golf cart was a lifesaver when it came to navigating the flooded streets.
This was our 2nd year in the house and we would certainly return.

Adorable beach house
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beach house. The house was clean, the beds were comfortable, the host was very responsive and really enjoyed the proximity to beach and boardwalk. The option to rent the golf cart was a great option, especially since it had a parking pass. We used it to go to the beach during the day and the restaurants in the evening. Highly recommend this cute beach house.

Awesome house
The home was so cozy and the decor was beautiful. It was stocked with everything needed for a comfortable stay. We enjoyed the golfcart at such a reasonable price. Literally every single store/restaurant/boardwalk/beach we went to was a mile or less away. Neighborhood was quiet and people there were super friendly. Communication with the owner could not have been better. She was super sweet, helpful, and quick to respond. I would definitely recommend this property!

Perfect Family Vacation rental
We enjoyed staying at Amy’s place with our 2 adult children and their significant others plus our 2 fur babies. The house was beautiful and the golf cart was a huge plus for us. Amy was extremely helpful and responsive to any questions or concerns. Our pups love the fenced in back yard and the glass front doors. They would lay and watch out the doors for bunnies and people to walk by. Cannot wait to book again!

We enjoyed every minute of our vacation in this home. It was very clean and convenient to everything. The golf cart was a great asset to this property, we rented it for the full 3 days that we stayed. It made it so much easier to get around. Amy was very friendly and nice and was always there when we needed her, great host. We loved everything about it. Nice , quiet neighborhood. Hope to go back soon.
