Close to the beach and attractions! Perfect for families or traveling nurses!, hotel in Carolina Beach

Close to the beach and attractions! Perfect for families or traveling nurses!

I love the house and the location. It was very clean, and the host was kind and helpful. The game room was a nice addition. My son and I enjoyed playing mini pool. The backyard was surprisingly huge and fenced in, so I trusted my son to play back there. It's pet friendly as long as you pay a cleaning fee for the animal hair, but at Wrightsville Beach, we saw a sign saying no dogs allowed on the beach. Just keep that in mind. We had a great time there, and I would definitely book it again.
