Modern, comfortable and private accommodations at the beach. Our back yard is the Carolina Beach State Park with miles of wilderness and privacy. You can access the many walking trails in the park, starting directly from our back patio. Explore the shore of Snows Cut, climb Sugarloaf Dune along the Cape Fear River and be on the lookout for the Venus Flytrap, the rare carnivorous plant that grows wild in the park.

We have plenty of parking for cars and trailers and a full garage to store bicycles and gear. Our neighborhood is directly adjacent to the Island Greenway, a network of off-street trails, parks and spectacular areas chosen for their safety, beauty and convenience. It's a great way to discover Kure Beach, Fort Fisher, the Carolina Beach Boardwalk or the North End of Carolina Beach. Ask us about bicycle rental options if you don't want to bring your own.

Kayak, Paddle Board and Jet Ski units are available next door at the State Park Marina. If you are bringing a boat or jet ski with you, your trailer will be safe in our yard. We are located directly between the two boat ramps on the North end of the island: the State Park Marina and Wildlife boat ramps. It's also a short drive to the Fort Fisher boat launch on the South end of the island. Wilmington, Wrightsville Beach and Southport are all directly accessible by boat from our launches. Here is a locals tip for a ideal beach day when you have a boat: head to the uninhabited Masonboro Island and find a secluded place to anchor up. You'll have the beach all to yourself.

Ready for a day on the sand? Here are a few of our suggestions on the best way to savor our beaches:

Beach parking is best at Fort Fisher State Park. It's close, it's a short, impressive drive and the beach is handsome. In Carolina Beach, you can park in one of the public or private tons or at any of dozens of beach accesses. Virtually every street that meets the ocean is a beach access. Kure Beach has public and private parking options as well.

Four wheel drive is our preferred way of getting on the sand. If you have 4x4 we highly recommend checking out Freeman Park on the North end of Carolina Beach, or the Fort Fisher State Recreation area on the South end of the island. Both allow you to take your car on the sand, right to the surf line.

We already mentioned finding secluded beaches by boat. Here are more ideas and different ways to appreciate our beaches: Rent a golf cart to access cart only parking at the boardwalk and at beach accesses. Gather shells as you walk the sand from Tiki Bar Pier to the North End Pier. If you are feeling adventurous, ride a fat wheel bicycle from the Fort Fisher Aquarium to Bald Head Island, a twenty mile round trip.

When you are ready for some rest, we've made our place comfortable and calming. Wifi is fast and reliable throughout the entire property. There are two king bed suites plus a third bedroom with double bed and it's own bathroom. All bedrooms have Roku T.V.s. If you need more sleeping space for the kids, there is plenty of room for a blow up bed or two. There is an outdoor deck with seating off the kitchen and an outdoor dining area on the ground floor patio in the back yard.

The main living area is on the second floor. The kitchen is well equipped. The dining room set is sizable and seats eight. Next to the dining room is a desk and workspace for those that need it. The living room is comfortable, roomy and has a huge Roku TV, the half bath in the main living area is convenient for all.

Our island has so much to see and do and there is even more to check out in surrounding areas. Our number one day trip recommendation is to ride the Fort Fisher Ferry to Southport, a cozy fishing village at the mouth of the Cape Fear River. Grab lunch at one of the eateries along the waterfront.

Downtown Wilmington is another recommended day trip. Walk around the historic district which offers top notch shopping and dining. Hop a water taxi from the downtown docks to cross the river and tour the Battleship North Carolina.

Our top Rental booking tips and tricks:

When to book & When to go:

June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Wrightsville Beach area. To get the best value, shift your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family.
Booking websites typically offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
Many rental management companies supply Wrightsville Beach area travel guides which include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

How to choose the perfect vacation rental:

Start by selecting your a vacation week and a spending budget.
Decide how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Spacious Beach Getaway for Nature Lovers and Active Families. Two King Suites! has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is almost always available on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the host before you book the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
Is your group looking for specific amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.
If your group is vacationing with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

Considerations for your stay:

Take a copy of the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
To make sure that damages are not attributed to your visit, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. Call the host immediately to report any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be useful.
Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known!
Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would at home.
Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
Record a video to document the condition of the property.
Did you have a wonderful vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
