Other Details to Note
The cottage is tucked into a peaceful, natural wooded setting at the back of a one-acre property, shared with the owners’ personal home and a detached workshop (Quonset hut – metal barn structure). ⚓ Your hosts, Kristi & Ian, run Epic Excursions, a local adventure company in Wrightsville Beach, and use the Quonset hut to store surfboards, paddleboards, and boating gear—hence the name “Captain’s Hideout.” 🏡The cottage sits behind the Quonset hut, offering plenty of privacy. A private driveway leads directly to the cottage and is exclusively for Captain’s Hideout guests. 🏖️ Though tucked away in a beautiful, prime Wilmington neighborhood, you’re just minutes from the beach, shopping, and local attractions. 👋 As hosts, we respect your privacy but are always happy to say hello if you cross paths! 🛥️ If you choose to enjoy a boating adventure with Epic Excursions during your stay, message us—we’re happy to offer a special guest discount for our cottage visitors.
