About the host
Hosted by Morgan
Hi! My name is Morgan. I live with my husband and two young children in the Raleigh area. We love spending time in the Carolina/Kure/Wilmington area whenever we get the chance! We hope you enjoy your stay!
Why they chose this property
The house is located 5 short blocks from beach access & Ocean Grill & Tiki Bar! The Carolina Beach Greenway Access is also a few blocks the other direction - It's great for walking, biking, rolling, etc. if you need a break from the beach. The path also leads to Mike Chappell Park where you'll find basketball courts, tennis & pickle ball, soccer/baseball fields, a skate park, and a playground.
We're also a very short drive from the Carolina Beach Boardwalk, restaurants, Publix Grocery, Fort Fisher State Park, Fort Fisher Aquarium, and Fort Fisher Ferry Terminal.
