About this property

30 Sec. to Beach, Sun, Sand & Waves & a Family & Pet Friendly Fenced Backyard

I want you to make lasting memories and think of this home as your favorite beach vacation spot while at Carolina Sea Paws at Carolina Beach, NC. I try to provide most everything you and your family or guests may need, so you can enjoy taking just 30 steps to the white sandy beach, see the ocean waves, and hear the sounds and smells that only the ocean can provide.
When you return from your fun and sun time at the beach, you can enjoy your private backyard & rinsing off in your hot/cold private outdoor shower area and sit and enjoy the warm breeze. After a refresh, have a family BBQ and enjoy the late afternoon. After you eat and talk about your day, listen to the ocean waves with mood lighting while you all roast marshmallows around your wood burning fire-pit sitting area outdoors. (you must furnish the wood) This would be my perfect first day.
This 3BR -1BA cottage has a laid back, friendly & family safe atmosphere at my end of the Beach, but you are also close to the action. This unit is a stylish open concept, with tasteful beach décor, a large L-shaped comfy sofa, and 2 nice chairs for extra seating. The Den has a 65" TV with a console fireplace, and all the amenities you will need: i.e. high-speed internet, New HVAC- heat/AC, washer/dryer, linens, soaps, body wash/shampoo/conditioner, well stocked kitchen and dinning area. All four beds (2 queen and 2-full bunks) are so comfortable you may not want to get out of bed, but If you are an early riser, make a pot or pod of coffee and sit on the front porch or backyard deck or go to the beach and watch a beautiful sunrise every morning.
You are only 3 blocks from the North End Pier & Grill & 1 mile to the historic Carolina Beach Boardwalk. There you can shop, listen to live bands, dine at a great local restaurant, & eat a famous Britt's Doughnut or Squigley's ice cream for dessert. Go to the beach or walk to the Boardwalk and see fireworks on Thursday nights during the summer, or rent a paddleboard, bicycle, Kayak, or rent the Carolina Sea Paws golf cart to ride around town and park for free. You can even bring a chair and watch an outdoor family movie on the lake at Lake Park every other week.
(Unit Golf cart must be reserved and paid for prior to arrival. Email owner- to rent Golf Cart, see prices in my pictures) No other golf cart can fit in the parking area or have access to electricity for charging.
Rain or shine, you will have plenty to see or do or just relax while at Carolina Sea Paws.
FYI… Dogs are welcome 45 lbs or smaller and if they are completely house broken and friendly. However, there is a pet free of $65 for one dog or $85 pet fee for two dogs. They will enjoy the fenced backyard and walking on the beach too!

About the host

Host profile image
I want my guests to make lasting memories of their favorite beach vacation while at Carolina Sea Paws at Carolina Beach, NC. I try to provide almost everything they may need, so my guests can enjoy taking just 30 steps to the white sandy beach, ocean waves, and the sounds and smells only the ocean can provide. When you return from your fun and sun time at the beach, you can enjoy a hot or cool rinse off in your private outdoor shower. Go hang out at the wind sail covered deck to dry off and enjoy the warm breeze and possibly read your new or borrowed book. After a refresh, pull out the cornhole set, the ladder and rope toss or horse-shoes game, or toss the football etc. and have a family and friendly competition as you grill out and enjoy the afternoon. After you eat any talk about your day, start up the firepit and listen to the ocean waves with the twinkling lighted palm trees and mood lighting over and around the deck. This would be my perfect first day.

I love the outdoors and enjoy people. I have been here 30 + years and think of myself as a local who cares about the beach, my area and I want to share my love of the beach and place with others. I came here years ago as the UNCW Women's Head Volleyball Coach and spent a lot of time playing beach volleyball too. Now, I love sitting on the sand, watching the ocean waves, boogie boarding and walking my 5 year-old dog, Bryce on the strand. I love where I live, and hope others do too. Enjoy!
I will be available and reachable by cell phone or text if you have any needs or questions. I want people to enjoy their stay at my beach cottage as much as I do, so ask and I will try to answer or respond in a timely manner.
