3BR cottage with a short stroll to beach or sound!

Located at the desirable south end of Wrightsville Beach on a quiet cul-de-sac, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom, single family cottage is the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience. “Fritz” is just a short walk to the nearest beach access and is practically next door to the Crystal Pier and famous Oceanic Restaurant. Enjoy a sunset dinner on the pier or drop by SunDays Coffee Shop for an early morning cup of joe before combing the beach for amazing shells.

As you arrive at the house you will immediately notice the spacious front deck that is perfect for sunning, entertaining or just relaxing in the soft ocean breeze! The open floor plan warmly welcomes you into this charming home. Two large sliding glass doors open to the front deck and fill the space with natural light. Cuddle up with your loved ones on the sofa for a movie night or unwind in a cozy armchair with your favorite book. The house has Roku TV’s so that you can stream all your favorite shows conveniently, just like you do at home! The dining table overlooks the living room and offers seating for six people. A pass-through window on the bar provides additional seating and keeps the chef in the family visible as they craft their favorite meals. The galley style kitchen has everything you need to cook for any occasion or crowd.

Down the hall you will find the spacious primary bedroom. Furnished with a king size bed this suite offers a walk-in closet, private bathroom, and Roku TV.

if concerned about roaches, stay away
The house is in a decent location, beds are adequate and there was enough space for our family, BUT we found an enormous dead roach upon entering the place, literally inside the entrance. Then we noticed the bathrooms hadn't really been cleaned because there were hairs in the bathtubs and under the toilet seat. When we called the rental company, they apologized and sent a cleaning team out the next morning and said they'd spray for bugs. The cleaners came and the bathrooms looked much better. The second night, we found another enormous roach, dead by a chair downstairs. The kids were scared to sleep down there because they thought bugs would walk on them at night. I called again but was told it's just "part of being down there and at least they were dead". Seriously. If you spray for bugs and find them inside after several months of service, please understand that you need an exterminator, not just pest management. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Nice Property
We found the house to be perfect for our needs. The downstairs provides a space for children to play or watch tv separate from the upstairs main area. There is one bedroom that does not have a tv, which would be nice.

Nice house in great location
My adult kids and I were there for the Ironman 70.3. This is a spacious, well-appointed, clean house in the perfect location. It's right next to the swim start and the bike drop off was within walking distance. We enjoyed strolling on the beach and had a wonderful dinner at the nearby Oceanic. A number of other shops and restaurants were within walking distance. We'll be back and suggest you try it out as well.

Perfect beach getaway
Excellent beach house. Great short walk to beach access yet still quiet at the house at night. Loved the front deck/porch. Room for all 9 to sit & enjoy the sun or nighttime breeze. Very spacious bedrooms for all. 3 bathrooms were perfect as well. Very well stocked with all accessories. Weather couldn’t have been any better!!

Perfect long weekend
This was a family trip to celebrate our youngest daughter's graduation from college. The downstairs bedroom arrangement in particular was very helpful for part of our family who have a newborn. They were able to spread out and have privacy and not worry about waking any of the rest of us up. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was adequately stocked. We should have told the rental authorities that the dishwasher was not working well, but if renters don't report that there's no way they would know. The deck was delightful and we spent a lot of our time there. We were able to walk to and from the Oceanic and the beach. Thoughtful touches like a beach cart were a pleasant surprise. We will definitely stay here again!

Labor day birthday weekend with family
The property was cleaner than we anticipated. It's right across the street from the beach but quiet. We rarely heard street traffic and it was a holiday weekend. We had 8 adults one kid and 3 infants and the rooms allowed for pack n plays for the infants. The outside shower was great for rinsing off after the beach so you dont get sand everywhere. Because of the pandemic we cooked all of our meals and found the kitchen to have the pots and pans we needed. Overall it was a great stay and we hated to leave.

dead cockroach left in stairway
Dishwasher didn't work. Soap dispenser does not open. Washing machine does not dispense soap properly, as washed clothing comes out caked with soap. Other than these small problems, our stay was comfortable. If you are not an early riser, this is not the place for you. Beach access parking lot is right next door. Cars start coming in at 5:30 am to park, lock their doors with horn trigger. Maintenance workers come in at 7 am across street.
