Guest access
The entire space inside and outside is available to our guests. We hope that everybody will get outside and savor the nature available whether on the back patio grilling or just sitting in the red swing or lounge chairs in the side yard. Also to our fisherman friends we offer a cleaning table in the back just for the “Catch of the Day”!
Other things to note
We also have a 50’ lot with waterway access down at the end of our road (about 1/4 mile) at the waterway directly across from Carolina Beach inlet that is very delightful. Cannot drive on lot. Finest for walking, cycling or being dropped off! Sometimes very busy but great fishing and shallows for the kids. Shelly so shoes a must! Please stay on our lot only, because the neighbors will run you off if you encroach on their lot. Ask for more info!
