Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dawson R. May 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 80th Birthday for Mom My mother has lived in Swansboro since 1993. Her current home is on the smaller side. My two sisters and I wanted to visit with her along with our kids (her grandkids) for her 80th birthday. It is extremely difficult to get everyone together but this house made it possible. It’s no where near the beach, but that’s not what we were looking for in a rental. This house made it easy to entertain and there are no steps to entry other than a couple of inches from the sidewalk to the first floor, which allowed my 80 year old mother to enter for a visit with all of her kids and grandkids in a comfortable environment. It was perfect for this purpose. Thank you to the owner and the property manager, both of who were very nice and responsive. ##### Dawson R.
