Located in the heart of the Carolina Beach, this unit is directly across from the lake, only two blocks from the beach, and just as close to restaurants, grocery stores, shopping, and tourist attractions.
This second floor rental has two-bedrooms, two-baths, living room, dinning area, and kitchenette; it has all you need to make your beach vacation awesome!
On the balcony you can hear the ocean waves and you're less than a two-minute walk before you are in the sand or enjoying the waves. For your convenience, the local fire department, located blocks from the house, has free beach wheelchair rentals.
Within blocks, you are in the midst of great restaurants, outdoor family movies, a Saturday farmer's market with local one-of-a-kind gifts, a family-friendly accessible boardwalk with a Ferris Wheel, rides for tots and music for adults, homemade ice cream and scrumptious hot donuts, the aquarium, and Fort Fisher. Take surfing lessons, go scuba diving, fish in the waves, walk miles on the beach, enjoy the fireworks on Thursday, or do absolutely nothing but worship the sun!
It's all here for you!
If you are looking for more to do, you're just a short drive away from the Fort Fisher Civil War Museum. You can also visit the North Carolina aquarium located on the south end of the Island or take a ferry ride to Southport for a day trip. There are also many top-ranked golf courses nearby, and historic Wilmington is only 20 minutes away. The thriving port city of Wilmington has the Historic Riverfront District with its unique restaurants, shops, walking tours, bus ride tours, carriage rides, and riverboat cruises. Wilmington is also home to the USS North Carolina WWII Battleship Memorial and UNC-Wilmington.

My husband uses a wheelchair so this stay was perfect for Access and accessibility. We have friends who live in the area however their houses inaccessible to those with Mobility needs so this provided a great opportunity for us to have a place to stay while still touring around Carolina beach and Wilmington
My husband has MS and this was our first big trip. The place was gorgeous. Lorraine had it decorated so cute. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was so close to everything and my husband was overjoyed to be able to go to the beach with the beach wheelchair they provided. The tiled bathroom was not only beautiful but so convenient.
The home is close to the beach and a quick drive to many activities, well decorated, clean and completely accessible! The accessible bathroom/shower is a definite highlight of the home. Great place to stay!
This property is so close to everything! We enjoyed walking to dinners and the beach, and the lake is wonderful for evening walks. This was a great place to stay!
Stayed for a week. I am in a power wheelchair in the home is extremely accessible. Neighbors were very friendly and helpful. Love the location, we were able to walk/Roll two shops and restaurants and the Boardwalk. Select
This was such a great experience. The home owner had everything there to take care of my husband who is in a wheelchair. This was the first trip we have taken since my husband has been in a wheelchair. It was amazing!
Great location close to beach and boardwalk area, extremely comfortable and whimsically decorated. Our family member who uses a wheelchair was able to access everything comfortably. Hope to return!
The property was better than we could have expected. The amenities for disabled guests were above and beyond. All the little touches were exceptional. We very much enjoyed our stay.
Great location, Perfect for those with mobility issues
This our 2nd stay on property. It's the perfect place to stay for my husband and I give his recent stroke. The property includes all the safety bars and space needed for wheelchair access. Property is always super clean and you can't beat the location to the beach and local restaurants.
This home was beautiful, fun and functional Our mom is in a wheelchair and this home was absolutely perfect for her. She had everthing she needed. Would definitely recommend. We had a fantastic stay
The rental was nice being only a couple blocks from the beach and boardwalk. We appreciated the host leaving a binder with ideas and places to go that were handicap accessible.
This house is amazing if you have family members that have trouble getting upstairs and into showers and bathrooms the artwork in the house was amazing and the cleanliness of the house was outstanding very comfortable house. Me and my family would stay here again.
Lorraine has made this townhome a comfortable place to stay with a fun and whimsical atmosphere! My husband and I stayed here with our two special needs adult kids, one of whom uses a wheelchair. Lorraine's townhome was in every way how she described it. We look forward to future visits.

April, I am so happy that our property met your families needs and enjoy our little slice of heaven. I look forward to meeting you all again during a future visit. Lorraine
For once a place that exceeded our expectations! They said they were accessible and went above and beyond. This was a cozy eclectic home close to everything yet quite far enough away to sit on the porch and enjoy the beach vibe. Everything including beach access was just steps away.
2nd floor, elevator and porch were very nice. Accessible bathroom excellent. On the possible suggestions- make the garage accessible all the way to the elevator for minivan, add a built in electric burner or small stove/oven, need more ice trays and/or ice maker, addition of one or two tvs for bedrooms and additional flatware.

Thanks so much for your thoughts and ideas. I hope you had a great visit at Carolina Beach. Lorraine
This adorable rental is eclectic yet elegant. Owner Lorraine, a peach, has created the ideal space for travelers in wheelchairs - an elevator, enormous tool-in shower with shower chair, a hospital bed & lift, wide hardwood floors, and more. Located on a beautiful street only 3 blocks from the beach & across the street from a lake it is in an ideal setting. Many activities and good restaurants nearby. We have never experienced better accommodation & accessibility in all of our travels. Cannot recommend this listing more highly.

Really enjoyed our stay.
We would suggest that there be a key beside using the combo lock. The dead bolt was accidently on so the combination did us no good. Don't know what we would have done if the owner had not been there. Don't know where the "beach view" was. Overall had a great time. Enjoyed walking around the lake. Really loved the wet room.
