Reviews

Favorite vacation home
5/5 stars
We have rented this house for two years now and plan to make it three—will be reserving again tomorrow for next year. The home is clean, spacious, has a beautiful view, east walk down to beach on the home’s private walkway. We are a group of 10 friends—mostly from North Carolina—and fit comfortably in this house. This year I texted iTrip when we found one shower had no hot water. They responded quickly, checked it out, sent a plumber who quickly fixed it. We really appreciated the fast response and courtesy of the iTrip staff. I/We highly recommend booking with iTrip and the Systemshutdown house. Just don’t book on our yearly weekend date ?. We love this house!
- Elizabeth

Thank you for your thoughtful review, Elizabeth. It is great to hear that System Shutdown is your perfect annual vacation spot! Our team is happy to know that you enjoyed the cleanliness, spaciousness, beautiful views, and that you all felt comfortable in the home.

Family celebration
5/5 stars
This is a wonderful home to celebrate Family milestones. We had never been in this area and it was fun to explore. The characters were the parents, daughter and boyfriend with dog, and son, wife and 19 month old. The space was perfect. It looks just like the pictures but being in the space is even better. There were plenty of toys for a two year old, , beach toys, and chairs .The kitchen is well stocked. Going in October was great, quiet during the week and a bit busier on the weekend. We so lucked out on beautiful weather. The hosts were responsive with any questions. The best part was the view and easy access to the beach.

Great Location!
5/5 stars
Thank you to Itrip for the communication and the extra attention to issues that arose. First of all 2 days before we were to arrive the management team called to inform us of a problem with a leak in a bedroom downstairs, but they were on it and doing everything possible so as not to interrupt our stay. Very thoughtful. Also when we arrived the fridge had overwhelming fish smell that we just weren’t able to clean out. Presumably prior guest had fresh seafood that had leaked into bottom of fridge. I altered the team by text and within 15 min someone was there with baking soda and cleaned the fridge as best they could. They also brought an Okcra cooler filled with ice for my daughter to store her breast milk in so it wouldn’t smell of fish. Again very thoughtful. The team really does try and take care of things right away when a problem arises. As for the property, it is perfect for multiple families. The bottom floor was great for toddlers coming in off the beach to use the restroom. We didn’t use the gaming room but it would be fun for teenagers and let them get away. The main floor and the top floor has expansive views of the beach. The beds were all comfy and the linens were very clean. The whole house was very clean, especially with little ones playing on the floor. The toys for the kiddos was an added bonus! And they have 2 pack n plays as well as baby gates and two booster seats. Also the kitchen is well equipped and had things like seasoning, trash bags and aluminum foil. Before you head to the grocery store, check out what is available at the house first, it could save you money! And the beach toys, chairs were so nice! Just a note to upcoming guest the kitchen/living area is on the second floor with a half bath and the bedrooms are on the lower and top floor with lots of steps. We had little ones and a new baby and it wasn’t a problem for us . Actually nice to retreat to your bedrooms at night or put kids to bed and have some adult time in the living area. Lots of seating available inside and out! Oh yeah lots of board games for all ages! The only thing that I would suggest to add to this house for a little more comfort would be lamps for all of the bedrooms. Several of them did not have lamps and it would be a nice added touch, especially with children and for reading at night. Other than that it’s a perfect family home that is well decorated and the distance to the beach is a short walk. Thanks again to the management team!

The location of this rental is 5*. The amenities are 5*. The communication with the management company is 5*. The floor plan and number of beds are 5*. Our family stayed for 11 wonderful days and we had plenty of space for everyone. The beds were very comfortable. The recommendation for upgrades would be the couches in the living room on the porch. They sag and are not that comfortable. The porches and walkway boards show wear. The table on the deck is questionable but with a tablecloth it hides all imperfections.

Great House, Great Views, Relaxing Atmosphere
5/5 stars
The house is great and has plenty of room for a large family or 2-3 smaller families. The views are great from all floors but spectacular from the 2nd and third floors (the 2nd floor is where the main living and kitchen area is). Everything was very clean, kitchen was well-stock with everything you need for cooking and the beach is just steps off the back deck. Nice and quiet in January for a relaxing long weekend away. Weather is obviously on the cooler side but not perfect for walks on the beach in long sleeves.

Hands down best beach rental experience EVER
5/5 stars
This is a very bold statement to stay considering I feel as if I am professional when it comes to beach homes-but renting System Shutdown in Kure Beach was simply perfection. I do have to say that I am not one to rent through an agency as I’d like to go to work with me owner however in this case I decided to give it a try. Imediate response from agency after online search. Answered questions quickly. Easy process to reserve. Now on it the house. Exactly as description. House even cuter in person. This house had every single thing one would need on vacation. Dishes cookware utensils blender great size coffee mugs margarita glasses ice packs in freezer Tupperware, games blankets cozy seating inside and great outdoor decks to stare out a yeh ocean. Entire house setup made it easy for us to social distance during covid-19. Bedrooms were small but big enough. TVS is each bedroom we’re small but didn’t matter, never turned them on. Bath towels galore, beach towels In closet. Beach chairs bikes I could go on and on... oh I can’t forget about the shower wash shampoo and conditioner that was build into shower walls! They smelled like a spa flavor! The only thing I can think of that was missing was martini glasses champagne glasses and kitchen towels. Beds were on the soft side, so keep that in mind if you don’t sleep well with soft tops. I will 100 percent rent this house again and will go through ITrip again!

System Shut Down - Highly Recommend for location, amenities, beach front and relaxing
5/5 stars
Great Location! Close to Kure Pier, Kure Beach Diner and Jack Mackerels which are all places you should visit. The house is a short walk from the beach on a wooden deck with shower and bench. Owners even have a chair for those that need a break to shit down and remove shoes or get a breath. Covered porch with sofa, chair, table and gas grill for lots of outdoor entertaining. The bedrooms are setup perfect for a family gathering. Lower level has bunk beds and very comfortable Queen in basement. Upper Level has 2 bedrooms with deck overlooking the ocean and 1 bedroom with full bunch beds. Master bed was very comfortable. All the linens were provided in each room with embroider towels for each person. The bedding was clean, comfy, cozy, soft and lots of extras in the closets. kitchen was well stocked with all kinds of kitchen gadgets and platters for cooking for family gathering. We were concerned about parking from the pictures but it actually worked out perfect to get 3 rows of 2 cars. One other thing I will mention the house next door is very close however it does not feel like it from the deck because it's low and deck is in front of the house so it was perfect for us. We did have to supply our own gas from the grill so keep that in mind when at the grocery store so you don't have to run back like we did .We would love to come back another time and definitely work with ITrip Vacations.
- Susie

Susie, thank you for your review. We are glad you felt the location is great, perfect bedroom setup, comfortable master bed, and loved the comfy clean and soft bedding. I'm glad the parking worked out for you. We wish you told us about the gas for the grill during your stay, we would have been happy to bring you gas. That is one of the perks of renting from us, we will bring you the things you need to enjoy your vacation, stress free! We would love to have you back again. Thank you for supporting a local family business and thanks for trippin with iTrip!

Happy place
5/5 stars
I just wanted to let you know that my family and I had a fantastic trip. The birthday celebrations and The anniversary dinner were great. It was so nice to spend time with our children, grandchildren and in laws. We enjoyed the beach and just relaxing watching the sunrise and the sunsets. I wish it was longer. System Shutdown is just what we needed for our get together. We had everything we needed and more. Thank you and I would love to go back in the future.

System Shutdown Vacation Week
5/5 stars
We had an amazing week. The house is nice and spacious. Plenty of room to spread out for a large family. The beach location is great. The kitchen could use some sort of storage for snacks and such that are brought since there is no pantry area. A large family fills up the trash cans outside really fast since the trash is only picked up on Monday’s. Some houses had multiple containers this one only had one. The house is great and we would definitely stay in it again.
- Kevin

Kevin, thank you for your review of System Shutdown. We appreciate your feedback and apologize for the issues you encountered. We added new containers for future guests; a previous guest might have taken them. (We wish we would have known this during your stay, as we want to ensure you have everything you need.) We will also make a note about additional space for dry goods in the kitchen. Despite the issues you experienced, we are very happy that you still found the home to be spacious with plenty of room for your large family. We hope to have you back again! Thanks for tripping with iTrip!

Loved this house! The three levels allowed for spacing of grandkids so the younger one could nap. Everything was provided and we couldn’t have asked for a better beach. Definitely a keeper!

A wonderful house, lots is space! Appreciate the spices and such. The place feels welcoming. The view is great. Mattresses worked ok for lighter people but were harder on larger ones. The iTrip people were very responsive and helpful.

Beautiful View & Family Friendly
5/5 stars
This was a great house for our family of 6 adults and 2 small children. They had all of the child accessories so we didn't have to travel with anything - baby gates, pack-n-plays, a booster seat and lots of toys and games. The view and location were great. We spent most of our days on the beach or driving to nearby attractions such as Bald Head Island and Wilmington. The only thing I would have done differently is to pack a beach sail tent for shade instead of trying to use the beach umbrellas. It was mildly windy when we were there so the umbrellas kept blowing away and then it was too hot to be out long without shade or being in the water. The kitchen was well-equipped and the outdoor space was also amazing to enjoy the evenings.
- Claire

Thank you Claire for your 5 Star Review of System Shutdown. iTrip NC Beaches enjoyed having you and we are so glad to hear that the home had everything you needed for your vacation.

If you are looking to go to the beach and forget all your troubles, this is your place. What really impressed me were the details and accessories provided. We really only needed to bring clothes and go to the grocery store for food. Beach towels, house linens, toys, high chair, beach gear, shampoo, conditioner, makeup remover wipes, etc were all provided! We worried about nothing! Also, the beach in front of the house was so secluded! It was awesome!

Great views and a great house
5/5 stars
We are enjoying our stay at System Shutdown. Though the name of the house leaves something to be desired, the house and view do not! We have two grandparents, their two children and spouses, and two grandchildren staying here. The home is a great size for these three generations. The covered porch is great for lounging and evening dinners with a wonderful view of the ocean. We are having a great time. Oceanfront living is the best!

Perfect!
5/5 stars
I cannot say enough good things about iTrip and about our stay. This house was perfect for us. It was incredibly clean, smelled great, linens and beds were top notch and super comfortable, kitchen was well stocked and there were so many helpful extras - great beach towels, sun screen, brand new pack n play, a few toys and books for kids, sound machine, high chair. The furniture was comfortable, well appointed, and clean. The location could not be better. The views are amazing, from both porches. You are steps from a gorgeous uncrowded beach that has a lifeguard for most of the day. The beach was clean, decent waves, and not overly "shelly". The neighborhood and street are clean, attractive, and quiet; close to the Kure beach pier and there are several great places to eat right nearby. We will definitely be renting this property again, it was a renters dream!

System Shutdown Kure Beach
5/5 stars
Thoroughly enjoyed our week (July 6-13) at System Shutdown. Check-in procedure was very easy and house was properly cleaned when we arrived. House was very well-equipped and had plenty of room for our group of 6 adults and 3 children. Front row location and outdoor shower were very convenient for beach activities. Suggestions for improvement: king mattress needs to be replaced and many porch/deck nails were protruding (we found a hammer and fixed most of them). On Friday we noticed small ants entering through the electrical outlets in the kitchen area, even though we tried to keep this area very clean. Would definitely rent this house again!
- Stephen

Thank you Stephen for your 5 Star Review of System Shutdown! iTrip NC Beaches enjoyed having you and your family and we are glad the home was fully equipped with everything you needed.
