Family-friendly vacation rentals in North Carolina

beautiful view, felt right at home. hit rub is a lil low. nothing big. we had a blast very beautiful and peaceful ☺️

We loved staying here. The dogs had almost as much fun in the back yard as on the trails! The climate was cozy and the back yard felt very private even though you have neighbors. The location was close enough to everything but also far enough from the hustle and bustle to relax. We very much enjoyed our time here and will stay again

Had a very nice getaway at the Maybell house! The property was private, peaceful and very clean. The house is not far from shops and restaurants. Would definitely come back!

We had a nice relaxing stay. Beautiful views and the hot tub was fun. There was plenty of space for our family of 6. We didn’t even use one of the bedrooms.

If you're looking for a serene getaway, this mountain cabin is an absolute gem! Nestled in a breathtaking natural setting, it offers stunning views, fresh mountain air, and a true sense of peace. The cabin itself is so adorable—rustic and and cozyl. The outdoor space is just as impressive, with a spacious deck perfect for morning coffee or stargazing at night. Whether you're hiking the nearby trails, relaxing in the hot tub, or simply enjoying the quiet surroundings, this cabin provides the ultimate retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The hosts were incredibly welcoming, ensuring everything was ready for a comfortable stay. Kitchen is a little small but plenty of great restaurants in Brevard right down the road. If you're searching for a place to unwind and reconnect with nature, this mountain cabin is a must-visit. Highly recommend!

This is my second stay at Michelle's cabin and it's always a great experience. The view is beautiful and the amenities are perfect 👌🏻. Highly recommended!

We loved it for a quick vacation in the mountains! My wife and I relaxed in the hot tub, played Scrabble and Mancala in the AirStream, and hung out around Black Mtn and Asheville. The cabin is exactly as advertised and Mae communicated quickly and clearly.

Solid place. Well maintained. Attention to detail. Had plenty of things one doesn’t always find in airbnb like cooking spray and extra toilet paper!

Great location! They were very responsive any time I sent them a message. They were proactive and turning the heat on in case we needed it for the cool spring mornings. Very clean and welcoming! Thank you for sharing this beautiful house with us!

Great spot in a great location. Giant kitchen and plenty of room inside and on the front porch. Kitchen was big enough to host Thanksgiving! Everything was just as advertised and very enjoyable.

The cottage was perfect and peaceful. Easy walk to several restaurants. Wonderful back yard and very cozy.

Had an amazing experience staying here with beautiful views

This was the perfect dog friendly place we were looking for. The enclosed deck and yard allowed to let the dogs out and run around the place without issue. The house itself is pretty close drive wise to everything. Plenty of space as well. Would definitely come back here again especially if we brought our dogs.

This is the 3rd time I have stayed at Brenda's place and I love it there❤️Every detail is thought out. We would have loved to stay longer. Brenda is very thoughtful and a great communicator The big fireplace is so welcome with these cool nights !!

We stayed almost a whole month and truly felt at home. Loved every single thing about this little cottage on an orchard. Pat is a superstar host in my book. Always responsive and helpful in any way. We loved the location it's the perfect mix of feeling isolated but really only 5 minutes to the grocery store. Everything you need for an extended stay is right here. We'll be back!

Joanna and Jamie were awesome hosts. They made sure we had everything we needed. We were there during the Asheville flood, and Joanna offered for us to eat with their family, to insure we had food and supplies. Also the place was amazingly stocked. You can just show up with your clothes, everything else is there.

Excellent stay for our family. Our kids loved the pool and toys and games. It was a good location to where we needed to be. We would definitely stay here again.

This is the second time we’ve stayed at Marooned Five as a family of five and we all love it! Our 2 younger kids love the loft and my older kid loves the second bedroom to himself. It’s not easy finding room for everyone when we travel but we don’t have to worry about it when we stay at David and Kris’ place. The two golf carts give us flexibility to split up and we also love riding bikes on the island. Marooned Five comes with everything you need for a relaxing vacation. We have stayed here during the off season and prefer it but will also be back during the summer season. Some of our favorites to do here: climb Old Baldy, eat at Jules and Jailhouse, beach days, have a date sans kids at Bald Head Bottle, visit Turtle Central and complete their scavenger hunt around the island. We went to Sunday service at the Chapel and had breakfast afterwards at The Boathouse. We shopped at the Maritime shops and scheduled a guided kayak tour (that was canceled due to rain). But we’ll be back!

Even with all the rain during our beach week, we had a great time at this dog-friendly cottage. The screened-in porches made catching up with family outside bug free. Nice pool, corn hole and hammock were nice to have as well. Short walk down quiet unpaved street to beautiful beach. So many restaurants & activities nearby!

Matthew's place was a wonderful home away from home. Matthew is a very responsive host and attended to all my questions in a timely manner. The home is very big and the kitchen is fully stocked for any cooking that you want to do. A prefect place for a family gathering. My favorite part is the view of the ocean and proximity of beach access. The home is also in a very quiet neighborhood. That said, the home is next to the community pool which was closed for the winter so I'm not sure what that would be like in the summer. It has been said in other reviews, but know that the home has 3 flights of stairs to reach the kitchen, main master suite and living room. I got my steps in! I really enjoyed my stay and would book again in the future!

Great location, and a great time. Backyard with pool is perfect with plenty of room for activities and entertaining. You can walk to the beach and restaurants within minutes.

My family and I enjoyed our stay. The views from the house are incredible. It is very peaceful. The place was clean. Nina was very helpful and responsive when needed. We used the pool and hot tub, which was a short walk down the driveway. I highly recommend this place if you’re visiting the area!

Great place. For its size and value, it literally has a ton of great features . The theatre room is amazing, especially with having kids. Has a beach volleyball court! The arcade has thousands of games and brought me back 25 years (Pac-Man, Mario, Galaga, Street Fighter, and 1,000’s more). We went when it typically would not be considered swimming weather, however, we had the option to have the pool heated at least a day or so before arriving and it made a huge difference and allowed for my girls and I to swim in early April (and I did jump in the ocean to compare and it was a 25-30 degree difference! Lol). The owner is very quick to respond, has the instructions available prior to arrival, recommendations for food, churches, , and activities. If you don’t mind a 3-5 minute stroll to the beach, it is honestly not that far away. Walmart, Target, Grocery stores, putt putt, dunes, Wings, fishing pier, are very close by. The aquarium was a 20 min drive but was worth it. Fun experience.

I recently stayed at this wonderful Airbnb for my sisters’ bachelorette trip and it was a fantastic experience! The house was incredibly cozy and clean. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk to downtown, where you’ll find plenty of shopping and delicious restaurants. Additionally, the host was incredibly responsive and helpful, ensuring that all my needs were met during my stay. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient getaway!
