My friends and I rent the Parsley house for a week every year and it's the perfect place to spend a beach week. The house is comfortable and has everything we need. We love the fact that it's a classic Wrightsville Beach beach cottage and is well suited for a leisurely stay. The beach on the sound side is perfect for hanging out and for keeping our boat moored. We'll keep renting this cottage every year for sure!

Manager's Response

Douglas, thank you allowing us to host you and your friends for another year! We love to know when guests make staying with us a tradition, and are thrilled to know you plan to continue that! This charming cottage is like you said, a classic, and perfect for those looking for a more traditional beach vacation. Thank you for sharing your experience and we can't wait to see you again next year!

The Parsley was perfect for our family and pup. Easy access to the ocean! Great location and easy access to some great restaurants in town. We especially loved sunsets on the private beach on the causeway. So convenient! The house has a vintage cottage vibe that we all enjoyed. Cool and comfy! We hope to return next summer!

Manager's Response

Thank you so much Donna for the great review! I am so glad you enjoyed your stay and we will see you next summer.

Manager's Response

Very beachy, old school home. Well appointed in terms of dishes, cups, etc.; I was worried that the outdoor shower would be an issue, but it ended up being fine. The porch is amazing! If you are ok spending most of your time outdoors and don’t want to be inside at all (which is the intent at the beach!), you will enjoy this home.. it was a bit stuffy downstairs with no AC in July.

Manager's Response

Pamela, it's wonderful to hear that you loved the Parsley cottage during your trip to Wrightsville Beach! This is a well kept, historical property that is full of coastal comfort and charm. The wrap around porch offers a nice place to relax to enjoy that ocean breeze while staying cool in the shade. Despite not having HVAC, there are window units throughout to help keep it comfortable in the summer months as well as plenty of ceiling fans to keep air moving. We appreciate your family choosing to rent with our company and hope to see you back again next time!

Property exactly as described. The location is tops - close to everything. The biggest pleasant surprise is the private beach area. We wound up spending more time there than we did at the ocean. The pictures do not do it justice.

Manager's Response

We appreciate your kind words and review of the Parsley cottage, Joseph! It is wonderful to hear you all enjoyed the home and the location including the access to it's private beach area. It certainly offers a different experience which helps break up the beach days and it's nice that the beach access is just a block away as well. The unit is one of the oldest here on Wrightsville, but with that history comes comfort and charm! We are overjoyed you had a great vacation and would love to see you back again next time you visit the area!

My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay the old fashioned way in Parsley Cottage. It was exactly the vacation we needed. The cottage is in a great location on the waterway within close proximity to the public beach access and so one can walk to the shops and restaurants. We loved the vintage feel including the porch bathroom off the porch. I hope everything at Parsley stays exactly as it is!

Manager's Response

Ira, it's always great to hear when guests can appreciate the older historic homes on Wrightsville! There are few original cottages from the early WB days and we are so happy you enjoyed the Parsley unit. The owners definitely keep it in great condition so guests can relax comfortably. Come on back anytime!

This cottage has the feel of a real old fashioned Wrightsville Beach cottage—and so few remain. The location is convenient. It does not have some of the modern conveniences but the rustic flavor is just right for us.

This is our 4th year renting the Parsley cottage and we've already signed up for next year! It's a great place to enjoy the beach with friends. The house itself is comfortable and casual and the wraparound porch is ideal for hanging out and enjoying the sound views. I love that it's so close to everything and you can walk to the beach or to the shops and restaurants.

Douglas, thank you for your review! We are so glad to hear that you enjoy coming back to this lovely property year after year. We look forward to seeing you again next year!

We loved the charm of the Parsley Cottage. Very comfortable until the heat index reached 107•. Bedrooms were comfortable though. I loved the porch. If I were to add anything it would be a table and chairs on the porch so you could eat out there and enjoy the view. The children loved spotting rabbits in the bushes! All appliances wereed well. The kitchen is well equipped.

Manager's Response

So glad you enjoyed your stay! This home is quite charming for those looking to experience the old Wrightsville Beach! Look forward to hosting you again in the future!

Great home, loved it for our guys paddling/surf trip to Wilmington. Laying on the porch was amazing. Very historic and charming home with prime location.
It could be a bit more clean (dust bunnies under the beds, etc). But superficially it was fine. Trip was in April so temps were perfect. Not sure how this house would be come July and August with just window units.
I probably would not take a family trip with grandparents or babies here. But perfect for us. No cable or internet even thought it was to be provided. We were not offered compensation for lost amenities. That was a bit disappointing - more of a Bryant Real Estate issue over the actual home. But it's nice to see these old historic homes with a story around the island, and not just new construction mansions.

Manager's Response

Thank for the comments you provided us in your review. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the historical aspect of the Parsley, and I agree that homes like this are an important part of the island’s unique history. I am sorry to hear of the problem you experienced with the cable and internet, as well as the cleanliness issue under the beds. Bryant Real Estate prides itself on maintaining the highest standards possible, and I’m truly sorry that in your experience we fell short in these areas. I have copied your experience to the management team so they may address these issues.

Cottage is vintage, old school WB! Wrap around porch is the main draw! Sleeping perfectly comfortable with bedroom AC units. Overall as advertised! Two suggestions - 1 - we didn't use the oven once but there was a constant smell of gas in the kitchen and into hallway. That's a concern that should be addressed in the name of safety. 2 - owner doesn't want bikes on the porch but it rained every night and leaving them outside not the solution. No other roofed area to store them and everybody wants a beach cruiser at the beach.

Our vacation to Wrightsville Beach and staying at Parsley Cottage was wonderful! The location was fantastic! We had our own beach access on the waterway and across the street from the ocean. The house was very clean. The wraparound porch was amazing to sit out on in the evenings! The Bryant Realty staff were very friendly and went out of their way to be helpful! I would highly recommend this cottage to everyone!

This was a great experience, Bryant Realty did an outstanding job. I have already booked the cottage for next year.

Only 2 issues....the cable tv service is pretty limited, in fact, very limited. And the wifi service is AWFUL.

But otherwise, the cottage is great, and you simply can't beat the location.
