The location is perfectly lovely looking out over the water towards Cape Fear lighthouse. The porch is perfect for lazy afternoons or gathering with friends. Accommodations are dated but clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay again.

We enjoyed our stay at such a lovely place. We really liked being on the island where we could enjoy life at a slower pace.

The lodge is located in a private serene setting with three views of the water. It sits among huge live oaks, beautiful azaleas, Holly bushes, and lantanas which makes it seem like a garden. The owners have furnished it so it feels like home with everything you need for an enjoyable stay.

Surprised because wasn’t sure what was stocked at house, description was vague. Pictures good for furniture but in the kitchen wasn’t sure & it was well stocked. Only thing I am glad I brought was a large crock pot, they had a small one.
We brought our boat and if your boat has T top, be careful due to the abundance of low lying trees. They were lovely on the property, but could rip or scrape a top.
The property had a nice sink to clean fish, would be nice if the hoses worked around the property. I think only one outside hose worked. In addition, we had several things that happened that the property managers had to be called. The code didn’t work to get into house but only had to wait about 30 minutes for them to get that worked out. Also, washing machine had leak and water was turned off to the machine. Luckily, Caleb came to the rescue and discovers the only leak was the hot water and could use the cold only and it would work. But, the property managers were quick to answer calls. Lots of little fixes would be nice to add to the property. You pay enough for the stay, it really should be expected not to have the nuances, but it happens. The screening on the porch should be a definite fix, it’s a focal point of the house. Bugs can and are able to join in on the porch with you due to rips in the screening.
Another odd thing happened. Someone showed up with binoculars and said they were returning them. Seems they had a sick parent, maybe with dementia and she took them, and they were retuning them. We left them on a table as we weren’t sure where they went.
Overall, we would love to stay at that property, but for amount charged per night, definitely not worth. If you get a half price deal, I would go back.

Nice new appliances. Great central family space. Nice front porch with the lighthouse clearly visible. It’s so close to the ferries! Would be nice if the outside shower was turned on since we were pretty sandy a lot.

What a view!
Always a concern when renting online, but this was just as shown. Beautiful location, huge house, plenty of linens. We had room for our boat and hoses to wash down, close to ramps.
Truly my only complaint was the kitchen stove was filthy, grease and food on top. A roach crawled out from the convection oven when I was bleaching everything. We are not snobby people, but we are, and expect clean.
