Bedroom three is located in the front of the house and has a comfortable queen bed, new end tables, lighting and vintage artwork. There is a Smart TV in this room as well.

The kitchen is the perfect place to cook up a wonderful meal with our fresh local seafood! Beautiful granite counters, all new soft close cabinetry, stainless steel fridge, stove & dishwasher. It's fully stocked with dishes, pots, pans, utensils glassware and more.

The laundry room is at the back of the house, a full size washer & dryer are here for your convenience, as well as plenty of shelving for groceries & supplies. There is a door here that leads to the back deck and grill area.

The dining area seats four comfortably at our vintage table, with seating for three at the kitchen counter. To the side of the dining area is a comfy little nook with a beautiful daybed from World Market with a comfy twin size mattress to allow for sleeping or just cozying up with a good book!

The thought to detail in the decorating was so cute. The location was amazing. The dog friendly area was so great and accommodating. The fire ants in the backyard def need to be addressed.

We loved the Lemon Drop. Great for the family and the dogs. Very clean, had everything we needed, nice open living space, cozy sitting areas and bedrooms. The location was awesome, a block and half to the beach, two parks in walking distance, 'downtown' of Carolina Beach, boardwalk all within a few minute walk. And easy into Wilmington.

Everything was just as we hoped for, kids loved the location and adults loved the easy beach access. You never have to drive unless you choose to. Home was very comfortable and clean. Would recommend to all.
