Shoreline Hideaway

Obsessed with 5-star clean and zero drama? Welcome home. We aren’t a 10-bedroom mansion, and our Murphy bed is cooler than a 1920s silent movie—it’s magic furniture that gives you space to dance and a plush place to crash. We (James & Michelle) live on the other side of this duplex. We promise not to hover, but we do share the hot tub and fire pit. It’s a quiet residential street 2 miles from the beach—so peaceful you can hear your own thoughts. Relax; we’re locals who actually answer the phone. Let’s be straight with you: This place is small. If you’re looking for a sprawling beach house to host a family reunion, this isn't it. But if you’re looking for a clean, quiet "basecamp" to crash after a day at the beach, we’ve got you covered. We (James and Michelle) live on the other side of this duplex, and we are obsessed with keeping our place 5-star clean. The Space: Efficiency is the Name of the Game We’ve packed a lot of function into a modest footprint. The Murphy Bed: To give you a place to actually sit during the day, we used a Murphy bed. Pull it down when you’re tired; tuck it away when you want to use the sitting area. It’s comfortable, but it’s the heart of the room. The Kitchenette (No Stove/No Dishwasher): This is for "vacation meals" only. You’ve got a hot plate, a microwave, a small fridge, and a coffee maker. It’s great for eggs and toast or heating up leftovers from one of our local seafood spots, but you won't be roasting a turkey here. No Dishwasher: Since it’s just the two of you, we’ve kept it old-school—you’ll be washing your coffee mugs in the sink! The Shared Backyard Since the inside is snug, we share our backyard with you. We’ve got a hot tub and a fire pit that we (the owners) use as well. We’re usually busy running our boat tours or working, so we won't be in your hair, but you’ll likely see us around. The Location: 2 Miles to the Sand We are tucked away on a very quiet residential street. It’s a great spot for walking or jogging, and you’re just a 5-minute drive (2 miles) from the Sunset Beach pier. House Rules to Keep Us Friends: No Smoking/Vaping: This is a firm rule. If we smell it, there’s a $500 fee. We want the next guest to walk into a fresh room. Quiet Hours: 10 PM – 8 AM. Our neighbors are awesome, and we want to stay friends with them. No Unapproved Pets: We keep this unit dander-free for folks with allergies. If you’re cool with a compact, efficient "home base" that’s clean and run by locals who actually answer the phone, we’d love to have you. You have the entire side of this duplex all to yourself! This includes your private entrance with a keyless door code, your own bathroom, and the living area with the kitchenette and Murphy bed. No indoor spaces are shared. Parking: You have dedicated parking right on the property. No need to hunt for a spot on the street—your space is reserved and just steps from your front door. The Backyard (Shared): You are welcome to enjoy the backyard, which features our hot tub and fire pit. Please note that these specific outdoor amenities are shared with us (the owners). We’re usually busy with our boat tours or work, so while you might see us passing through the yard, we've designed the space for your relaxation. The Neighborhood: Since we are on a very quiet residential street, the area is perfect for morning walks or evening jogs. You’re just a quick 2-mile drive from the Sunset Beach pier and pristine sand! We’ve designed your stay to be as private and seamless as possible. We use keyless entry, so you can head straight to your door and settle in without a formal "meet and greet." While we (James and Michelle) live on the other side of the duplex, we prioritize your privacy. Honestly, you may never even see us during your stay. We are usually busy out on the water running our boat tours or working, so we aren't here to hover. That said, we are locals who actually answer the phone! We are always reachable by text or call if you need a restaurant recommendation, a quick fix, or a tip on the best beach spots. You get all the peace and quiet you want, with the peace of mind that we’re right next door if you actually need us. Cameras on outside, its for our safety and yours. Please note the hot tub can be seen from the cameras so we advise against skinny dipping, we don't monitor these but use them if a problem occurs.
