This property is a bright, 3-bedroom, 2-bath, 1st-floor home with an open floor plan and 2 decks, and is located only 1 street back from the beach on peaceful Bowfin Lane. The North Carolina Street public beach access is only a short 2-min. walk from the driveway. All furnishings is new as of July 2020. There is enough room for ~8 people with a King master bedroom, a Queen second bedroom, and a third bedroom featuring 1 Full and 1 Twin bed - additional sleeping is available with the pull-out Queen couch bed. The huge main deck has ample seating for everybody, with a smaller deck located off of the master bedroom.

The open, completely-furnished kitchen includes granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, and all typical prepare ware/silverware/cups and plates. The enormous dining area has seating for up to 9. The roomy living room area is ideal for calming after a long day at the beach. Spectrum cable TV is included, and you may also log in to your Netflix/Hulu/Prime video accounts from any TV in the home.


Outside, there is parking for up to 5 cars. There is additional space below the home and in the backyard to relax. There is also an outdoor spray station for your beach gear, and an enclosed shower to get the sand off. We have a grille and beach chairs/toys in our storage unit for your use.

This rental is located in close proximity to the beach, Ocean Grille and Tiki Bar, Granny's Kitchen, Vinny's Pizza, and Fun Time Ice Cream. Head north a few blocks closer to downtown Carolina Beach, and you'll find the boardwalk area with eateries, bars, amusement park rides, and even the famed Britt's Doughnut shop. The town typically offers fireworks and complimentary outdoor movies on Friday nights during the summer time, or you may even see a Netflix production being filmed! A few miles to the south is the town of Kure Beach, which features a great fishing pier, gorgeous dining options, and a great playground with a disc golf course. Fort Fisher is located just south of Kure; the live oaks near the fort are the ideal place to watch the sunset and the NC Aquarium is not to be missed! There is also a ferry past the aquarium where you can take a 30-min. boat ride to the town of Southport, home of many historical sites and films (eg, I Know What You Did Last Summer).

Linens are supplied: We supply towels, wash clothes and beach towels. The bedrooms all have their own blankets, pillows and sheets supplied. (1 set per room) This is a humongous savings from what most linen companies charge and you'll savor the move in ready convenience we offer.

Booking the best vacation rental experience:

Find your perfect rental:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking your Carolina Beach vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is our favorite way to save money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites often offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines which include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting the perfect rental home in Carolina Beach:

• Select a group lead, choose your trip dates, and select a spending budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. 3BRS, Walk to beach, Beautiful views! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the host before you reserve your home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Some properties allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More considerations for your visit:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent lots of difficulties.
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• Record any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers disrupting your home life. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would've never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, remember to take video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to drive future reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
