  • Private vacation home

Are you looking to coast back to simpler times? “Reel Simple” is a beachfront Wrightsville Beach bungalow listed on the Historic Registry! Featuring impressive ocean vistas from porches that span both floors and plenty of space for the entire family, this is the prefect home for folks who savor a traditional family beach vacation.

The outdoor space that the bungalow offers is really a rare find. Two enormous porches wrap around the exterior of the property and are lined with rocking chairs, comfortable loungers, and give countless vistas of the charming Atlantic Ocean. Several screen doors line the porches and allow for alluring cross breezes on warm summer evenings with the waves crashing in the background. There is a huge shaded screened-in dining area off the kitchen which makes a ideal spot for gathering!

Guests of this striking bungalow will be welcomed into the home by way of a lush tropical garden that passes by a modest neighboring bungalow. An exterior staircase leads you to the porch and the main door to the home is accessed through the screened porch. As you enter the home and walk into the kitchen, you are instantly met with tons of appeal and gentle nods to the history of this fantastic family home. The kitchen features striking wooden walls that carry through the ceiling and while it is upfitted with modern amenities, it holds true to the age and simplistic feel of this classic beach bungalow.

To the left of the kitchen is a sizable laundry room that leads to a full bathroom with a walk-in shower. There are two twin beds in the laundry room that are not included in the occupancy of the home and are not intended for guest use. Passing through the kitchen again, you will arrive in the dining room which is furnished with a sizable kitchen table and an antique buffet that homes games, puzzles, and books. The wonderfully aged wood floors compliment the historic photos that tell the story of this home which has been adored by many generations. The comfortable master bedroom is accessed off the dining room and provides a full-size bed, neat half bathroom, and has two windows that let in natural light.

Through the dining room is the cavernous family room that offers a sitting area, comfortably furnished living room with TV, and features original glass paned French doors that lead to the first-floor ocean front deck. Take a second to stop and admire the antique wall décor and historical memorabilia as you ascend the stairs. The top floor bathroom has a huge claw foot tub and services the four close by bedrooms. An oceanfront guest room with two twin beds, a queen bed, vanity table, an TV makes a great accommodation for guests of all ages with two large windows that overlook the ocean and a convenient door that gives access to the top floor deck. The second guest room is furnished with two twin beds is a great place for kids as there is no exterior egress. Another guest room with two twin beds offers direct access to the ocean front deck and has a modest sink. The fourth guest room on this floor is outfitted with a queen-size bed and offers a modest sink.

Our top Rental booking tips:

Cost saving strategies:

  • The earlier you can book, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your rental property up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
  • Summertime is the most expensive season in Wrightsville Beach. Booking your Brunswick area vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is our favorite way to save money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
  • Some property managers offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
  • Property managers often offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
  • Look for your local Brunswick area area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines contain deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Choosing and booking a perfect Brunswick area vacation home:

  • Choose vacation week and max budget.
  • Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Charming Beachfront Cottage on Historic Registry has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
  • Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the property manager before reserving the home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
  • Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.
  • Visiting for a specific event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
  • Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More considerations:

  • Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
  • Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
  • Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would at home.
  • To make certain that damages are not attributed to your family's visit, record any problem areas upon check in. message the rental manager right away to relay any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
  • Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
  • Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photographs of the property to record its condition.
  • Leave feedback! Hosts rely on good feedback to drive new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy 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.
