Kid-friendly vacation rentals in North Carolina

The house was clean and the kids loved the ping pong table. We liked that we could walk across street to the recreation center with a playground mini golf and a pool! Would definitely stay again. Thanks!

We had a wonderful stay at this “Slow Pace” Airbnb with our children and two dogs! The home was comfortable and inviting, with a fantastic backyard that we all enjoyed. The living room was perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring, and the location couldn’t have been better—we loved being able to walk downtown and appreciated the easy access to Montreat. Another great perk was the nearby mom-and-pop convenience store, where we could easily pick up extra drinks and snacks. It was close enough that the kids could even walk over by themselves, which was a nice bonus! The hosts were thoughtful in every detail, from providing plenty of coffee for our entire stay to the extra special touch of a bottle of wine waiting for us on our first night. We would absolutely stay here again!

Great value, beautiful location, and responsive host!

Erin was a great host! She was very communicative throughout our stay. We got in late at night and all the lights were on, with fresh eggs and bread waiting for us. Such a nice touch. Her place was very clean and comfortable. She had tons of toys in the spare room, which our daughter loved. The front porch is so charming with all the flowers in bloom. Thank you for having us, Erin!

We enjoyed our short stay, it was exactly what we needed. Mary Sue was more than accommodating and helpful.

I had a great stay at this property. It had everything we needed for a few days. It was very comfortable and complete with everything you need to spend a few days. Thank you!!

We loved the home. The weather was iffy with the winter storm coming in and we had to leave a day early. But that’s not her fault!!! The cleaning could have been better; especially the tops of furniture. And the water took forever to heat up in the master bath…all in all it was a great place in a great location. Wish we could’ve stayed longer. Views are beautiful in the snow!

Clare was a great host! She was very friendly and communicative and left perfect instructions, plus recommended local spots to check out! Her house was very clean, and it worked out very well for myself & my friends! I’d definitely recommend her place and would be happy to stay here again in the future!

Cozy and perfect for a two night stay. Near everything and Kaitlin was responsive and helpful!

Randy's place will be the first place I look for on my return. He was friendly and very helpful to me finding things to do and see. His place was clean, and most of all very cozy. It was private with a small porch to sit and have morning coffee outside. Only a 2 mile drive to the ocean beach was a plus. Convenience grocery store right across the street. Awesome place.

Gabrielle and Eric were incredible hosts even in really difficult circumstances. During our stay hurricane Helene hit NC and there was a lot of flooding and trees falling. As with a lot of NC the water, power and cell service went out but Gabrielle went above and beyond to make sure that we had food and water and light. The entire area was affected including their own home but they still checked in with us and kept us updated on what they heard about the situation and had the culvert to the cabin rebuilt on the same day. Aside from the events the airbnb was lovely. It’s modern inside with sizeable rooms and more than enough space for the three of us. It was clean and warm and well stocked. We had our toddler with us and she had a great time with the toy box provided. We also really appreciated the high chair and children’s cutlery/crockery provided.

We have been to many AirBnbs over the years. We can say without hesitation that this was the most comfortable place we have ever been to. The space was super comfy, well appointed, in a quiet residential neighborhood, but within a few blocks of Greensboro shopping. We went out to a couple of great restaurants, the Green Valley Grill for dinner and Mimi's for breakfast. The zoo is awesome. If we are ever in this area again, this is the place we will choose. Thank you Barbara and John!

I spent about 8 weeks at this place and was very satisfied with its location, peaceful neighborhood, size and facilities. The unit is spacious and has everything needed for daily life. It's also very convenient to grocery stores, easy access to highways and a very enjoyable drive through the forest to Duke University. Kathryn is warm-hearted, very friendly and willing to help whenever needed. Highly recommended.

This place was beautiful, clean and cozy! I loved the kitchen appliances, they mirrored mine at home, as red is my favorite color and they were all red. I enjoyed the coffee and tea that were available. The place is immaculate.! This host thought of everything to make your stay enjoyable. I was impressed to see that there were several boardgames available so if you did not feel like watching TV, you could enjoy some games. There was even a high chair and playpen in case you had a baby with you. I highly recommend this place and hope it is available next time I visit North Carolina. I left with a smile on my face :)

Absolutely perfect. Cozy downtown apartment feel. Everything was very clean and comfortable and the burger shop downstairs was so delicious for a diner feel. We walked around everywhere and there was so much to do! We felt safe and the place was absolutely beautiful and had little local elements which were so charming. No complaints about anything! A word of warning- the autumn forest puzzle in the apartment is SO HARD and that’s coming from a seasoned puzzler. I had to give up :’( Thank you so much for having us!

I had a nice quiet peaceful stay. It is a great location for trials at Rising Star Canine Ranch. The hosts were super nice and accommodating. I hope to book this place again.

Condo was in a great convenient location. Very spacious. We did a lot of sight seeing so didn’t spend a whole lot of time on site but it accommodated all of our needs!

This was a very last minute trip without much planning & Kellie & Russ were great to work with! Very responsive! Made sure we got into their condo without any issues.. suggested some local eateries.. but ultimately, their place is just steps away from the sand of the beach.. very quiet complex & that’s exactly what we were looking for! CB is just a couple minutes away if you’re looking to get into more things, especially the end of May when the Boardwalk opens up fully, but this trip was just for peace and quiet & a mental reset with three of my kids & my daughter’s best friend. Fort Fisher was just a short walk away and we enjoyed going and learning about that era and walking the battlefield. Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for laid back & relaxed! Completely equipped kitchen and linens was a bonus! Wish we could have stayed longer, but back to school and work tomorrow!

It was perfect for our spring break vacation. It was myself, my 12 year old son, his father and our dog Arrow. The bedroom was perfect to sleep 2 people and the pull out couch was comfortable. I loved the outdoor covered deck that had an ocean view. It is a short walk to the beach. We spent most of our time there as we did not have to worry about parking. There was a great resource that went over all the details that we needed for the place and the area. Robin communicated with us to check in and left some snacks and a Kerrie coffee maker with great coffee and hot chocolate options. The condo is on top floor which we loved to not hear people above us… not ideal if you do not like stairs. I loved to exercise worked for me. 😌 i would definitely stay here again! Thank you for creating such a loving space! 💕

Rachel's place is a very nice place to stay. It was very clean, and the linens provided were a plus! The photos do not do it justice, it is much brighter. Rachel responded very quick. This is one of the nicer places we have stayed in at St. Regis!

Robin communicated quickly with us and her place was just as described: spacious, well equipped and a lovely place to spend a week. Sitting on the screened in balcony overlooking the golf course was very pleasant and peaceful. We would not hesitate to book with her the next time we are in Sunset Beach. jim & Lynn

Beautiful condo in a perfect location! Loved the balconies looking out at the water. The condo was so quiet which we loved! Anita was a great host. I'd definitely come back!

We had 7 people—parents and 5 kids ages 11-24. The unit was clean and inviting. Tastefully decorated, but kept simple, which we liked for a rental. Even though the kitchen was not as modern as some we have stayed in before, everything worked well, and you could have several people in there at once, which was nice with 5 adult sized people in this unit. We could easily fit all 7 of us at the DR table. The bathrooms and bedrooms were nicely done. The deck was a good size, and the view was great! The closet off the deck had everything you needed for the beach, (chairs, sand toys, umbrella, boogie/skim boards, etc) and beach towels were provided inside the master bedroom closet. So nice to not have to bring all of that along! The access to the beach was wonderful, the kids could run back and forth without an adult along, if they forgot something inside. *The outside shower is by the pool.* The hosts were quick to respond throughout our entire process. The parking was not ideal.

This place was perfect for me and my friends! It’s exactly what you’d expect with some extras that Lisa graciously provided for us, from toiletries like the usual shampoo and conditioner to things you might forget like toothbrushes and toothpaste, and even snacks including chips and chocolates and other candy. The location is hard to beat as well, walking distance to a crepe shop we had breakfast at, and steps away from the beautiful lake and all of its scenery. Would highly recommend!
