"Parsley" is a cherished historic sound-front bungalow where guests return year after year to experience the timeless appeal of Wrightsville Beach.

This beloved bungalow seamlessly blends vintage character with modern amenities. The main level features a comfortable yet functional kitchen, an inviting living and dining area, and a appealing bedroom with a twin bed.

The broad shaded porch is the heart of the bungalow—ideal for unwinding in a rocking chair while appreciating the coastal air. A unique feature of this home is the full bathroom located on the porch, adding a rustic and calming touch to your stay.

Upstairs, three additional bedrooms provide plenty of space for family and friends. The first guest room offers a full and twin bed, while the two remaining bedrooms each feature two twin beds and their own private sinks—an authentic nod to the home’s history. A shared half bathroom with a beautiful clawfoot tub adds to the vintage appeal.

Though the bungalow’s cross breeze keeps it wonderfully cozy, modern amenities like central heat and air, as well as ceiling fans throughout, ensure year-round comfort. However, the home is winterized and unavailable for rent from December through April.

Tips and Tricks to get the best Cape Fear area vacation home experience:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Reserve your Cape Fear area vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies supply Cape Fear area area travel guides which will include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting the best vacation home:

• Select a group lead, select your vacation dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Traditional sound front cottage w historic charm! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the property management company before you book the rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts charge additional pet fees.

Considerations for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon check in. Make contact with the rental manager immediately to report any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents quite a few problems.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental one final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a wonderful vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
