"Parsley" is a cherished historic sound-front bungalow where guests return year after year to experience the timeless appeal of Wrightsville Beach. With handsome sound vistas, spectacular sunsets, and a enchanting wraparound porch lined with rocking chairs, this coastal getaway is ideal for relaxation. Just across the street, kids can splash in the gentle waters of a private beach that emerges at low tide, while adults appreciate the serenity of the lush garden by the shore. A short walk across South Lumina provides simple access to the ocean, ensuring the best of both worlds.

This beloved bungalow seamlessly blends vintage character with modern amenities. The main level features a comfortable yet functional kitchen, an inviting living and dining area, and a beautiful bedroom with a twin bed. Multiple sets of French doors and windows allow the fresh ocean breeze to sweep through the home, just like in the old days. The broad shaded porch is the heart of the bungalow—ideal for unwinding in a rocking chair while appreciating the coastal air. A unique feature of this home is the full bathroom located on the porch, adding a rustic and calming touch to your stay.

Upstairs, three additional bedrooms provide plenty of space for family and friends. The first guest room offers a full and twin bed, while the two remaining bedrooms each feature two twin beds and their own private sinks—an authentic nod to the home’s history. A shared half bathroom with a striking clawfoot tub adds to the vintage appeal.

Though the bungalow’s cross breeze keeps it wonderfully cozy, modern amenities like central heat and air, as well as ceiling fans throughout, ensure year-round comfort. However, the home is winterized and unavailable for rent from December through April.

Step back in time and experience Wrightsville Beach the way it was meant to be—calming, photogenic, and full of nostalgia. Don't miss your chance to stay in this really special coastal hideaway!

Rental booking tips and tricks:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To get the best value, consider changing your vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Some property management companies offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many management companies supply Carolina Beach area travel guide magazines which include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.
