Summary: The perfect place that my boyfriend & I & 3 of our friends stayed at! This was our second year in Carolina Beach, we love it! The place was super clean, super spacious, huge bedrooms, large backyard & we all LOVED the back patio! Super easy access to all the amazing restaurants near by (5 min or less drive to most of them) Definitely would recommend/ stay here again!
