Dog-gone Salty Cottage: Cozy Surf City Cottage just a short walk to the beach - bring your dogs too!

Bed Sizes: King (1), Queen (1), Twin (2)

Welcome to Dog-gone Salty Cottage! (Formerly Carolina Cottage)

Stop scrolling - you've found the perfect beach cottage to call home on your next coastal Carolina getaway. This sweet retreat sits only a five-minute walk from the sand, and within walking distance of several restaurants and bars. The shopping, restaurants, and amenities of Surf City are around two miles away.

At home, enjoy sunny mornings with coffee and starry nights with cocktails on your large front deck, complete with a porch swing. Inside, you'll find vibrant, cheerful decor and an open floor plan ideal for spending time with loved ones. The sleek, modern kitchen features a full suite of stainless steel appliances and all the cookware you need to whip up favorite recipes, and there's room for everyone at mealtime around the adjacent dining table. Even better, step outside to your fully screened sunroom and dine alfresco with a view of the fully enclosed yard while the ceiling fan keeps you cool or the portable heater keeps it cozy.

After a day on the sand, bask in the central AC while the washer/dryer make quick work of the day's laundry. Four TVs and free WiFi should keep everyone entertained, or unplug entirely and head back out to the sunroom to relax under the café lights. The relaxing retreat you've been dreaming of awaits - all that's left to do is book.

Home away from hone

I love this place. This is my second time this summer. It is a short five minute walk to the beach. The place has all the items needed for a short or long stay. It is convenient to everthing. Lots of great restaurants! I look forward to booking again next year!

Carolina Cottage

Cozy, coastal, light and airy beach cottage! My family, my sister and niece really enjoyed our beach trip to the Carolina Cottage near the Surf City canals. From the screened in porch to the beach was ONLY a 2 block walk! It was perfect! We were able to enjoy the sunrise, beautiful weather all week, the sunsets and of course we were able to see the first turtle release of the 2023 season as well as see multiple turtle nests. We prepared several meals at the house, which was stocked with cooking supplies/utensils that we could cook with. Plenty of spacious kitchen cabinets and countertop/ prep area as well as being well lit! There was plenty of seating areas for everyone to be together or alone, whatever their choice was. Thank you for allowing us to stay in a cottage away from home.

Be Careful not to Leave Anything

Beware that this isn’t a VRBO owner to guest rental if that’s what you are looking for. The property is managed by a global vacation property management company. The overall stay was great however beware of the host company’s policy for item left behind which is as follows: - Cleaning service removes items left behind from the property. - no on notifies you - you pay $25 plus tax to perform a search for your item in addition to any shipping costs. - if you don’t pay within two weeks then they own your items.
