Reviews

Stay at Lorraine’s
5/5 stars
Perfect vacation cottage for a family or small group of friends/couples. Very clean. Accommodates for every need. Kitchen is spacious and very well stocked. Screened in patio area with a comfortable hammock for enjoying peaceful evenings. Very much worth the cost for a relaxing and enjoyable cation! Highly recommend this cottage for anyone. Renters/staff are excellent as well. Communication with them is quick, simple and very courteous! Thank you all for a pleasant, memorable stay at Kure Beach! Also, location is perfectly located very near beach/pier access, restaurants and stores.

Great beach week
5/5 stars
Lorraine’s Cottage provided the perfect place for us to spend a week at Kure Beach. The space is warm and inviting, with lovely coastal decor. Everything was sparkling clean when we arrive. The place is right around the corner from a convenient store that has everything. And is a two block walk from the beach and from great restaurants. Could not have asked for a better stay.

...In spite of the rain
5/5 stars
We had a great time at Lorraine's Beach Cottage. It was the best equipped place we've stayed in. The kitchen had everything we needed and it was all in great shape. The children's corner was great. We were really able to entertain my granddaughter on the many rainy days we were unfortunate to experience. Really appreciated being able to bring our dogs. Great proximity to the beach. In spite of the rain we had fun!
- Denise

Thank you for sharing your experience at Lorraine's Beach Cottage! We're delighted that the well-equipped kitchen and children's corner made your stay enjoyable, even with the rainy weather. It’s wonderful to hear that your granddaughter had plenty to do, and that you and your dogs enjoyed the convenient beach access. We hope to welcome you back for another stay with sunnier skies next time! Thanks for trippin' with iTrip!

5/5 stars
A part of me doesn’t want y’all to know how amazing this place is because then it might be booked up when we want to come back ha! Lorraine’s Beach Cottage was PERFECT. Let’s talk location first. The quickest walk to the beach, the sweetest playground, cute local restaurants and ice cream and coffee shops. We were there the 4th of July week and expected it to be crowded, but we always got a spot on the beach with a direct view of the water and plenty of space to spread out all the things you need on the beach with a 1.5 and 3.5 year old. Super short driving distance to the coolest aquarium and in the other direction, Carolina Beach which had a much busier feel, but so many things to do and places to eat (all listed in Lorraine’s recommendation guide which is so handy!) The house itself was perfect. Plenty of space for my family of 4. My kids loved the little play area in the living room with a cute little table and lots of books, puzzles, blocks, and coloring books. The beds were so comfortable. The sheets and towels smelled so clean and fresh. The living room had the coolest little vibe to it with the cute white brick fireplace and built in bookshelves for me and my husband to bust a chill post kids bedtime and watch some Netflix and drink wine. The kitchen had all the essentials but I also 10/10 recommended just doing a Publix delivery with lots of premade stuff like we did. The host was so helpful and checked in on us frequently before our trip to make sure we had all we need prep wise. In short, it was amazing. We will be back and can’t imagine going on any other beach trip that isn’t Kure Beach and staying at Lorraine’s Beach Cottage.

Lorraine’s cottage review
5/5 stars
We had a lovely time at the cottage, the setup was very comfortable, and the kids area was really appreciated! We loved the porch and hammock , and spent time both in and out! All bedrooms were really comfortable, and the kitchen space was great, we cooked a few nights, and the work space was really comfortable . The only suggestion I have is that a full length mirror be placed somewhere in the main house, and I would note that I believe the water discolors items, I laundered a linen blouse that came out discolored, I am sure it will wash out, but you may want to note this near the washer. On that note, all signage throughout the house and info in the book was really appreciated ! As well, response time regarding any issue sent via text was very quick and appreciated as well!
- Marci
