Best location - The Beach House at Carolina Beach

Our Ocean Front Beach House is one of the few single family Beach Houses on CB. Its location is great with the beach steps away and CB Lake Park across the street. Park your car and walk to many restaurants, downtown shops and the Boardwalk. The Beach in front of the house is always less crowded than other areas on the beach. ABSOLUTELY NO PARTIES ALLOWED AT OUR BEACH HOUSE!! Our house is perfect for families or Couples. Some Scenes from the movie “Nights in Rodanthe” were filmed on the porch.
