Unique Carolina Beach House - Built-in Outdoor Hot Tub -Tremendous Outdoor Decks

This beach house is arguably the most unique beach house in Carolina Beach. It was created solely with the relaxation and enjoyment of the occupants in mind. The upstairs of the house has a large great room with connecting kitchen and dining rooms. There is an outdoor covered porch on the 2nd floor to enjoy the views and to hang out / dine. The very large great room is divided in two. There is a 65 inch LED TV with full cable/DVD capability on one side for watching television/movies. The other side is a living room to enjoy the views of the ocean and salt marshes. The kitchen is fully equipped with new stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops, etc. There is a large guest bedroom upstairs. Free internet / wifi is available inside and outside the house.

This house is not ocean front. However, it is directly aligned with a public beach access which is a block away. This allows for very nice views of the ocean to the east, a large salt marsh to the north, and great views of the surroundings from inside the house, from the 1st and 2nd floor decks and the outdoor hot tub on the 1st floor deck.

The house has 3 bedrooms and 3 1/2 baths. All the bathrooms have granite vanity tops and large ceramic tiled showers with thick glass enclosures. The master bathroom also has an oversized bathtub. All 3 bedrooms have walk in closets.

The master bedroom is very large with a mini bar with refrigerator and serves as a suite with a sitting area with a very comfortable fold out couch. From this bedroom, there are views of the ocean and french doors that lead out to the built in hot tub as part of the very large decking system. There is a large foyer area with adjacent laundry room for drying beach towels etc. The 1st floor has 1 additional large guest bedroom.

The house has 3 large bedrooms with a large queen sized fold out couch in the master suite and 2 additional queen sized fold out couches in the great room. The additional fold out couches will accommodate 6 additional adults far a total of 12 adults. The fold out couches have new 'memory foam' mattresses and are very comfortable.

The 1st floor decking system is impressive in all that it has to offer. There is an array of very comfortable outdoor furniture that will accommodate up to 15 people. A built in hot tub seats 6 adults with views of the surrounding area. Beneath the covered portion of the deck is a granite tiki bar with sink and electrical outlets. A selection of small electrical appliances is available (toaster oven, electric grill, griddle, hot plate, toaster, coffee maker, blender) so that meals can be prepared outside if wanted.

All sheets, pillow cases, etc., bath and an ample supply of beach towels are included. The beds are already made. No need for a linen service. The kitchen is fully equipped including many small appliances for use inside and outside on the deck / tiki bar. Ample supply of laundry detergent, soap, shampoo, dishwasher detergent, paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags, etc. Pretty much everything you will need is available in the house so you only have to bring food and personal items.

A Property in Transition
The house and location are great. My interactions with the former owner during booking were outstanding. But this house was recently sold and is now managed by a new property management company. My impression is that they are unfamiliar with the house and its operational details. TAKE NOTE: CHECK OUT TIME HAS MOVED UP TO 10 A.M. AND ALL DISHES MUST BE CLEAN AND PUT AWAY BY THAT TIME. (This was a rather large surprise for us.) Management was generally responsive but not always able to fix "the problem." For example, bedroom lights turning on in the middle of the night for no reason. In addition, for a house of this size and this price point it seemed some supplies were lacking. For example we had only 1 wine glass for the house, only 8 spoons for the house, only 1 dish towel for the entire week, pull out sofas were only supplied with a fitted sheet rather than including a top sheet and pillow cases. We also found multiple dirty dishes in the cupboards and stickiness in drawers. I suspect that most of these issues are easily fixable with more attention to detail. We solved many with trips to the dollar store.

Great vacation home
This home is in a great location with just a short one block walk to the beach access which you can see from the house. Views from the decks are wonderful - both ocean and marsh views. We were fortunate to meet Chris, the owner, on our arrival. He was wonderful and told us to call with any needs. We didn’t have any since the house was stocked with everything we needed.

Perfect Graduation Gathering Spot
Our daughter graduated from UNCW this weekend. We had friends and family coming in from several states and we needed a place to gather after the graduation ceremony. This home was a perfect location and layout for entertaining friends. Our family stayed for a long weekend and enjoyed cooking several large meals, relaxing on the beach (very close walk to access) and hanging out on large decks and hot tub. Thanks to Chris for his hospitality. We would definitely choose this property for future Carolina Beach gatherings.

Best place to stay at Carolina Beach
Glousterman Place was the perfect spot for my family to stay for my beach wedding! Clean property, one block from the beach, spacious, comfortable, pet friendly, and a hot tub, too! It doesn't get better than that. Chris was super helpful in accommodating our party's needs and even offered advice on the best spot on the beach to say "I do." Our whole party enjoyed the house thoroughly and we would gladly stay here anytime.

Glousterman Home
Home was nice. Owners came over and we met them face to face. They were cool. My only gripe is the sitting furniture needs to be updated. The location is great 😊 Nothing is far from the home . They allow pets , that was a plus for us. The hot tub was a nice touch ( we had to clean it out a little extra ) but it was hot and relaxing on the master balcony. Overall it’s a beautiful home. Chris gives out his number so you can contact him directly if you have any issues .

Perfect for everyone
This house was perfect for our extended family. We traveled with three generations, from age 10 to 74, and 3 labradors (don’t worry, all of the couches and chairs have covers on them that can be cleaned, so there is no trace of animals in the house). The open concept in the kitchen, dining and living area is perfect for large groups to be together. We enjoyed spending our days on the massive deck with plenty of seating, and the hot tub for when the sun went down. The very short walk to the beach allowed us to make frequent trips back to the house to use the restroom or grab snacks or drinks. Zero complaints. We will hopefully be back one day.

Great house Fabulous location
The house was great....large, beautiful decks for outdoor views, easy walk to the beach. Bathrooms are roomy and showers were large and great. Owner great communication every time. Easy check in. Great parking. The only downside I had with this stay was the furniture all needs updating....uncomfortable and very very dirty. We had a couple sleep on the pull out sofa in the living space and they said they would rather sleep on the floor. All of the furniture was bad even the deck furniture is very worn out. Dishes pots and pans very unclean. I would suggest bringing lots of paper items. It was in serious need of a thorough cleaning for sure. The house itself lacks nothing but is screaming for a deep clean and furniture overhall. Location is fabulous house is great.

This house is amazing, and has great amenities (hot tub and deck). We had 6 people and had plenty of room. Access to the beach is super easy, and the deck space was perfect for hanging out and enjoying the nice weather. Lots of stairs though, and the main living space and kitchen is on the 3rd floor. We thoroughly enjoyed staying here and will definitely book again.

A Perfect Vacation
My family and I stayed at this lovely house. It is as close to perfect as it gets. The location is nothing short of stunning. The public beach access sits directly in front of the house which affords you an unobstructed view of the ocean while the home's side gives an equally stunning view of the marshes. There are several outdoor lounging and dining spots to enjoy these views. AND, one of these lounging spots is equipped with a hot tub, ample seating, and bar area full of outdoor cooking appliances and a fridge. We really enjoyed the hot tub at night when there was little to no traffic to muffle the sound of the ocean. As for the interior of the home, it is equipped with everything you need for relaxing, cooking, Netflix binging, and enjoying the beach, which is a hop and a skip away. There is an abundance of linens and beach towels. There isn't a cooking appliance you won't find in the well stocked cabinets. The owner has thought of everything. There are also lovely and interesting photos sprinkled throughout the home that whisper of fishing expeditions and sweet vacation stories. These photos and the beautiful, well-worn hardwood floors lend just enough warmth to the house to make you feel at home. We've stayed up and down Carolina and Kure Beach through the years and this is by far the best experience we've ever had. Hats off to the owner for considering everything needed for the perfect family vacation!

Great house at a great location!
Our family loves the Carolina/Kure beach area and vacations there every year. The house is well appointed and has plenty of space to spread out. The deck(s) are great and offered a nice place to hang out after a hectic day. Love the northern end as it's quiet, has great beach access, and offers a nice spot to unwind. I'd recommend this property to others looking for the same!

House was fantastic! Plenty of space for everyone, we had 9 people, 4 adults & 5 kids. The decks are fantastic! View of the ocean, shaded areas, sunny areas, plenty of furniture. Hot tub was a huge bonus! The only thing I didn’t consider, which was a non-issue for us, is there are quite a lot of stairs which may be difficult for some. Highly recommend the owner and the house!! We would all definitely stay here again!
