Things to do:
Adventure awaits. Discover aquatic wildlife and vegetation at the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher or enjoy a relaxing ferry ride across the Cape Fear River to a quaint little shopping town called Southport. Take a trip back in time at the Fort Fisher State Historic Site and Museum which features live oak-covered trails and bunkers from the American Civil War. Stroll through the marsh to visit the home of the famous Ft. Fisher Hermit. Or wind down with nature at our two state parks, sure to provide a memorable experience with hiking, fishing, and water activities such as paddle boarding and kayaking, and search for a Venus Flytrap which is native to NC only. As one of North Carolina's most undeveloped beaches, the island offers a unique opportunity to see many diverse coastal wildlife, including pelicans and loggerhead sea turtles, in their natural habitat. Whether it’s exploring activities on the island, enjoying the ocean views, or enjoying a cocktail by sunset from your own private balcony, Pleasure Island offers diversion for every enthusiast!

Explore the treasures of Carolina Beach, ranked one of the top 10 boardwalks in the country by Food & Wine magazine. One of the last remaining beach boardwalks on the East Coast, it includes a variety of restaurants, an arcade, shops, ice cream, Famous Britts Donuts, bars, and more! During the summer months, the Boardwalk is bustling with the sound of music, carnival rides, bingo, family nights, and events like the weekly fireworks and concert series. Rent a Jeep, bicycle, or golf cart as the most convenient ways to navigate the island. Annual off-season events include the Cape Fear Kite Festival, Christmas by the Sea, and the Island of Lights Festival.

Fun at Kure Beach
Bon Temps offered beautiful decor and convenient corner location and easy access to beach and all activities. We had a great time. However,. It doesn't offer comfortable sleeping for 14 as advertised.

Extremely satisfied
This is a beautiful home that is very close to the beach access. Well stocked kitchen/games/books/tv and on and on. I would definitely rent this again. Our only issue was that dogs aren’t allowed on the beach at Kure Beach so that was a bit of a let down. Parking can be tricky as cars are not allowed in the street. Great experience overall.

Awesome house!
The house has a great porch and upstairs balcony as well as plenty of space for people to gather or be apart. It was well-equipped and full of character. Hard to believe it's a rental!

Wonderful home very close to a beautiful beach
We really loved the house and the management company was probably the best we’ve ever worked with. Fantastic communication and responsiveness. Not all the amenities were accurate. Management company did control the thermostat though and initially we could t set it below 75 but they let us lower it after calling. Over all 9/10 experience.
