Welcome to the Beach! We are on the south end, all sandy, no rocks. Our house is located across a narrow one-way street from the ocean, and between two Public Beach Access ramps (3 houses away each direction)! Miles of beautiful sand and dunes to the north and south. You will be on an island between the Cape Fear River and the Atlantic Ocean.
Only a block away: Carolina Beach Lake: Ride a bike, skate or jog on the paved walk around the Lake, or try out a paddle boat. Short walk to town, the Marina, and/or the Boardwalk where you'll find Charter boats, many fine restaurants, and lots of unique shops. Want to do some fishing? You have a choice of surf, pier or deep sea. Carolina Beach State Park has 6 miles of nature walk/hiking trails (look out for the Venus Flytraps!), and a full-service marina. The North Carolina Aquarium, Fort Fisher Civil War Museum, North Carolina Underwater Archaeology Headquarters, and a 1/2-hour Ferry ride to Historic Southport are all within a few minutes drive South.
Or head a few miles North to Wilmington's Historic district and take a carriage ride or go on a Ghost Tour! Stroll along the scenic Cape Fear River or take a romantic dinner cruise. The USS North Carolina is open for touring. Don't miss beautiful Airlie Gardens and the Arboretum. Jungle Rapids on Oleander Drive is a waterpark/mini-golf/arcade for the whole family. Check out Wrightsville Beach and walk The Loop.
I'm sorry, but bookings shorter than one week during peak season
will only be taken as "last minute", due to cancellations of full week rental. It has simply become too difficult to keep up with so much activity during the summer.
We've just added our newly remodeled ocean front condo as a vacation rental. Unfortunately, pets are not allowed. The rates are low this first season to help you with gas prices, so take a look---VRBO #187408.

Pet Friendly: small fenced-in yard. Please crate nervous dogs when not at home. It helps them feel safer.
