Just a magical week at beach cottage!
We had a great week in Wrightsville. Property was so close to beach, shops, and restaurants. The cottage had everything you would want and need for a stay. It was cozy and comfortable.

Great little place
It was a cute beach cottage in a great location. It was the perfect size for us. The location was a quick walk to everything which we loved. My only complaint is the mattress in the bedroom to the right of the bathroom sagged in the center.

Great spot
The house was in a great location, right by the beach and a few blocks from restaurants and bars. House was exactly what you want in a beach cottage.

About the host

Hosted by Irene Kennedy

Host profile image
We have lived in Raleigh, NC, for 30 years, although I originated in Washington, DC, and my husband in North Dakota, combining a military family and an academia family. We both went to school here in NC at UNC-CH and NCSU.

Why they chose this property

We love WB for its family-friendly atmosphere and because many of our favorite things to do here are within walking distance, and it's only 2 hrs away from where we live in Raleigh. Our cottage is located in the heart of the island, 2 blocks from recently restored Johnny Mercer's Pier where you can pick up Sunday papers. Our 2 daughters grew up spending summers here and have many fond memories of time spent with friends and family.

What makes this property unique

Our cottage was built in 1939 and has the charm and coziness of an older cottage--good bones, you might say. The sunrises, sunsets and breezes on the porch are soothing, as are the birds chirping in the mulberry tree and Chinese Elm outback. Breezes from the ocean and the sound flow through, lulling guests to calm, peace, connectedness.
