This 3 Bedroom, 2 Bath home has just undergone a full remodel so it feels like brand new!

As soon as you arrive you'll decide you never want to leave. Come upstairs to the broad decks and watch the day go by. Everything is on this level, meaning your brand new kitchen/living/dining areas are just inside the two big slider doors. There's even a daybed in case you need an additional spot to dream. Lots of seating inside and out will welcome you to kick off your shoes and relax. There is a Queen bedroom that shares a Jack n' Jill bath with a Full Bedroom. In the back of the home is the master bedroom with a King bed and en suite bath.

Savor the luxury of having plenty of parking for 4 cars, and a cavernous area underneath the home with two hammocks to nap in the shade. A generously landscaped backyard that is fenced for privacy is also supplied. Don't forget to appreciate the outdoor shower and gas grille!

Pleasure Island is full of fun activities for the entire family. From the carnival ambiance at the Boardwalk, where you will definitely want to sample a world famed Britt's Donut, all the way down to the Aquarium at Fort Fisher, where you can spend a rainy day appreciating a varied selection of wildlife displays, you will never be bored on your beach vacation. We've got a State Park where you can actually see carnivorous plants in their native environment, and an historic Fort where you can learn about Civil War battles involving Blockade Runners and massive cannons.

How to book the best vacation rental experience:

When to reserve a Cape Fear area rental home & When to go:

  • Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
  • June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Booking in the Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
  • Some hosts and property managers offer special rates for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if discounts are available for your family.
  • Property managers usually offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
  • Look for your local Cape Fear area area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides contain discounts for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

How to select the best vacation home in Carolina Beach:

  • Choose vacation week and spending budget.
  • Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Newly renovated home across from the beach! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
  • Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before you book the home. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is best for your vacation group.
  • Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.
  • If there's a certain Cape Fear area attraction you crave, keep an eye out for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
  • Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

More considerations:

  • Store the owner's information in your smartphone.
  • Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few issues.
  • Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect your property!
  • During check-in, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
  • Be a good neighbor. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
  • When it's time to leave, complete a walk-through to make sure you have not leave anything behind. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
  • Leave feedback! Property owners rely on good reviews to inspire more reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your review find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.

The former, as described by Lanier, is the more commercialized of the two destinations and features a boardwalk, outdoor dining options and a plethora of weekly activities including fireworks, live music, amusement park pop-ups, and movies under the stars. Kure Beach offers a more residential feel with its fishing pier, intimate restaurants and family favorite, North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher.More water fun awaits, too. “There is a harbor and a canal that feed into the intercoastal. We have several properties on the harbor so guests can bring their boat, kayak, [or jet ski] and travel between islands,” says Lanier.   A stay with Victory Beach Vacations is an annual pilgrimage for most. “A large percentage of guests are previous guests. Some even reserve the same property for the next year as they’re checking out,” Lanier says. “It’s almost like it’s their personal vacation home.”   Even before guests arrive at their vacation destination, the Victory Beach Vacations’ website greets them with a live beach cam and exquisite aerial footage of both Carolina and Kure Beaches.
