About this property

Carolina Cottage @ Kure~ Beach, Fishing, Pool, Kure Pier

Pack light and unwind in this charming, newly renovated 3-bedroom cottage, complete with a welcoming front porch. Thoughtfully designed, this cozy retreat offers all the comforts of home for up to six guests. With free parking and easy access to community amenities, you'll have everything you need for a relaxing beach getaway. Take a refreshing dip in the outdoor pool, let your furry friend enjoy the dog potty area, or relax while the kids play in the family-friendly space.
Our location is ideal, just one minute from the beach and minutes from the iconic Kure Beach Pier. You'll find local restaurants and the arcade a quick stroll away. And for fans of film and television, Kure Beach is a hidden gem of Hollywood on the coast. Shows like Outer Banks have filmed right here, and popular series like Dawson's Creek and One Tree Hill also used nearby beaches and the historic town of Southport as their backdrop. Whether you're a fan of beach-town TV or just want to take in the cinematic beauty for yourself, this area offers scenes right out of a movie!
For more nearby fun, take a scenic drive to the Carolina Beach Boardwalk for the famous Britt's Donuts, or explore attractions like the Fort Fisher Museum, North Carolina Aquarium, and the ferry to Southport for a day of adventure.
Kure Beach itself features an expansive, pristine shoreline framed by breathtaking ocean and river views. The wooden boardwalk, lined with benches and oceanfront swings, stretches over one-third of a mile along the beach, providing a perfect spot for relaxation. Don’t miss the iconic 711-foot fishing pier, built in 1923 and the oldest on the East Coast, adding a quaint fishing village charm that draws anglers and sightseers alike.
For outdoor enthusiasts, Kure Beach offers opportunities for biking, kayaking, swimming, surfing, hiking, or simply lounging on the beach. Small, pre-approved dogs are welcome with a pet fee of $100 per dog, making this a truly family-friendly getaway. Previously knows as the Palm Air Cottages.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Very Relaxing

First time at Kure Beach and it was very relaxing. Not loads of people like Myrtle Beach. But with that, there wasn't a lot to do other than the Pier and the beach. Luckily our cottage resort had a pool which was very nice! Check in was simple and the cottage itself was very nice and cozy, literally less than a two minute walk to the ocean. The best place we ate was Beach Burgers (highly recommend) and the worst place was Big Daddy's (huge disappointment).

Perfect

Perfect location and great place to stay. We spent 5 nights and the cottage was as advertised. It was our first trip to the area and we really enjoyed the proximity to the pool, ocean and dining. It seemed like we had the pool to ourselves. We will definitely be back!

Carolina Cottages at Kure is a great place to stay!

The property was clean and everything we needed. The pool was close to our cottage and the Kure pier was within a block. The ocean is directly across the street. Several restaurants within walking distance, too. We will be back another time! The host was also very helpful and very nice.

Accurate listing would stay again

Great stay except for cold water for a 24 hours. They had turned it down when there was a storm and never turned it up until guests were complaining. Also they did get the property sprayed by pest control there were more than several large cockroaches we had to deal with.

Cute cottages.

We have stayed in Kure a lot just never at this location. The pool was nice. The cottage was decently clean. Bathroom was small but that is to be expected in an early built structure. Would have liked access to local news channels. Not Apple TV or Roku. Bathroom could use more TLC. Will stay again. Easy walk to pier and beach.

Pack lightly for a nice, but very small, beach stay

We had a great stay at the condo but just want to post a few thoughts so future visitors go in with a bit clearer of a picture of where they're staying. The listing advertises it can fit six - during our stay we had four adults and one infant (15 months) and it was incredibly cramped. Unless two or three of the six are children, I simply don't see the condo fitting six. The living room is nice and clean, the kitchen space is clean but very small. I wouldn't pack any meals that aren't pre-assembled as there simply isn't really room to actually assemble a meal in the kitchen, that is separated from the couch in the living room by a foot or two. Also, there is a grill outside attached to the property - it looks like it hasn't been cleaned in years and was, to my standards, unusable from a health standpoint. Similarly, they have an icemaker out on display for use on the kitchen counter, which would have been nice, except it was full of mold on the inside and, again, unusable IMO. I don't want to be too negative - we enjoyed our stay and it was a two minute walk to the beach - but I do feel like some of the listed amenities for the property were simply unusable and the accuracy of how much space you have seems a bit off. It's very tight quarters. Pack lightly, there are dressers in each room but they offer little space and there is even less space in the closets for hanging. We stayed a full week, so maybe for a weekend when you're packing more lightly, it would work better. 4/5.
