My family gathered in Wrightsville Beach for the 4th of July week. The four of us had a great time. We enjoyed the public access beach on the Inland Waterway as it was less crowded and the water calmer. In the morning, we really enjoyed the ocean, only a 200 yard walk from the patio. As an electric car owner, I also appreciated the Level 2 charger. This was a huge plus as we prepped for our return home. Only caveat - there is no indoor table for 4 folks to dine. You can stand around the kitchen island and try, but it didn't really work. We had to dine outside every night, which can be unpleasant due to mosquitos and very humid temperatures.
