Our cute one bedroom, one bath condo is ideal for couples looking for a charming hideaway or a modest family looking for fun on the beach. Our two patios, one on each end of the condo, give you an magnificant view of the sunrises and sunsets over the beach and lake respectively. Just in case the weathers not cooperating, we have a retro arcade with all your favorite old games and there's no quarters needed!

We are located in the heart of Carolina Beach, in the second row of homes. We are a mere 100 steps from the ocean access. The Carolina Beach Lake and Brandy Myers Playground is across the street and the Carolina Beach Boardwalk is roughly a 6-min. walk. Every Thursday nighttime during the summer there is a fireworks display on the boardwalk, the best part about this is there is no fighting of the hordes for you, you can just pull up a chair on our ocean side patio and watch in comfort. The amusement park portion of the boardwalk is open Memorial Day through Labor Day every year. At the lake, there is a Farmer's Market every Saturday morning and on Sunday evening's they do complimentary family movies. The Kure Beach pier, the Ft. Fisher Aquarium, and the ferry to Southport are just a 10–12-min. drive.

If you appreciate food like we do there are loads of great places to eat and drink! Definitely check out Hang Ten restaurant for a great burger, they're so close you can see them from the back patio. The Veggie Wagon is a 3-min. walk, where you can grab all kinds of local fare, like take and bake meals, hard ciders/beers/wine, baked goods. The blood orange cider is my personal favorite. Coffee lovers don't fear for Majik Beans is just a short walk past the Hang Ten restaurant, on the walk you'll also pass Kate's Pancake home, where you should definitely try the Banana Nut French toast. For burritos as big as your head, lol, check out Flaming Amy's Burrito Barn, delicious! Last but not least on our favorite's list is Britt's Donuts, which is open seasonally on the Boardwalk. They're so good that they announce their re-opening every year on the local news!

We have an onsite designated parking spot for our unit, so you don't have to concern yourself with parking access or costs. Our home is entirely furnished but we do not supply linens. If you don't wish to travel with linens, you can rent them on the island at such places as Maids 2 Clean NC. We have a 3-nighttime minimum stay to book our property.

Tips for getting the perfect Carolina Beach rental experience:

Getting the best rental value:

• Summer time is high season in the Southport area. Book your rental property in the Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local Southport area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines have coupons for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Finding the best rental in Carolina Beach:

• Start by having your group agree to the best dates and a budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Cozy Beach Hideaway, Sleeps 2-4. \nDirectly across from Carolina Beach Lake Park has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible online. If they are not listed, call the host before you book the home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to determine what is best for your vacation family.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Remember to include your furry companions! Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or costs might be applied to your agreement.

Some things to know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• Record any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks ruin your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the host is not available, remember to take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on great ratings to propel more bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
