Beachbarn was a fantastic home that housed 2 families (4adults 4 girls). Shannon was incredible to work with and was attentive to questions leading up and during our stay. Location was very private and easy beach access. Beds were very comfortable and the house was so cozy. Plenty of room to spread out. Fluffy new towels in all bathrooms and water temp and pressure was on point! We all took advantage of the two decks on both levels each day. The kitchen had everything we needed for our range of meals. Highly recommend Topsail Steamers- (southern boil).

The Beach Barn is by far the best house around!! We had a wonderful week in this well appointed home. The kitchen has everything one needs for meals at home. We have found the beds to be comfortable in all bedrooms and the living room furniture and setup is so comfortable! This was our fourth year at this home and we have never been disappointed. The owners are wonderful if any issue does come up. My husband and I and both our daughters and their families feel like we are coming home every July!!

Beautiful Beach Barn
Our family enjoyed our stay at the Beach Barn! It's a beautifully restored beach house with nonstop expansive ocean views. The house was super clean and well stocked.

Excellent property for families with young children
The home was exceptionally clean. It was very well stocked with all the beach necessities and toys. The kitchen had every type of pot, pan, bowl, plate, cup, and cooking utensil you could imagine. Everything in the home was high end quality. The bath towels were plush and soft against my sunburned body! The two sets of upstairs bedrooms with connecting bathrooms were ideal to put the kids in one room and their parents in the other. The downstairs primary bedroom was perfect for the grandparents. I can highly recommend this beautifully decorated beach home.

Cannot say enough good things about this property. It was clean, attractive, exactly like the listing photos. The kitchen was well-stocked and so convenient to have beach toys, chairs and umbrella there. The beds were comfortable. We love a quiet beach and this was exactly that. Shannon was super responsive when we had a minor issue and also let us know the house was ready for early check in. One of the best VRBO experiences I’ve had and we will definitely be back!

Fantastic family time on the beach
This was the perfect house for our group. We rented as a family of 10 and loved the setup with the bathrooms in between the bedrooms. It’s also beautifully decorated. We don’t typically eat out, so having a stocked kitchen is important to us. We found everything we needed and more! There are puzzles, books, games, and toys supplied as well. Lots of outdoor beach stuff too, including great chairs and an umbrella. Our hostess Shannon was nothing short of amazing and was in contact with us as needed. It’s a nice quiet area, but close to stores and walkable to the pier. 10/10 would recommend. Book your time here, you won’t regret it!

Beach Barn 2024
We have enjoyed three years at Beach Barn Cottage! Our family of ten find the house to be most comfortable and fully supplied with all the kitchen items we required for the week!
Having early morning coffee on the porch overlooking the ocean is always a treat!!
Being so close to the beach was terrific with our grandchildren.
And having a dining table to fit 10 of us was the absolute cherry on top!
Family time is a reflection of the owners choices throughout the house! We'll be back for many years to come.
I would be amiss if I didn't say how wonderfully responsive the owners have been every year!! Thanks so much, Shannon!!

Most relaxing stay with gorgeous furnishings
The Beach Barn Cottage is hands down one of the best places we have ever stayed. Shannon has truly thought of everything and is a very gracious host. The home is beautiful. The beach is steps away and was safe enough for our pre-teens to go back and forth on their own. The linens, pillows, kitchen goods, beach toys, and outdoor furniture are all of good quality and not cheap. There were 10 people in our group. Our family, my brother’s family, and our parents. Plenty of space for all. It was perfect for the kids to “play”, hunt for shells and sharks teeth and shop. It was also perfect to relax, read a book, and just enjoy the ocean. We will be back for sure. Shannon was easy to communicate with and really made sure that we had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. I would give this 10 stars if I could.
