Guest Access

Adventure awaits on Pleasure Island. History lovers can walk the scenic, live‑oak‑lined trails of the Fort Fisher State Historic Site, where Civil War bunkers still stand. Nature enthusiasts will love the island’s two state‑managed coastal preserves: Carolina Beach State Park, home to rare Venus flytraps found naturally only in this region, and the Fort Fisher State Recreation Area, known for pristine beaches, marshes, and wildlife viewing. Both offer beautiful opportunities for hiking, paddling, fishing, and spotting pelicans or even nesting loggerhead sea turtles.

After a day outdoors, unwind on your private balcony with a sunset cocktail, or head into town to explore the best of Carolina Beach. The Carolina Beach Boardwalk, ranked one of the Top 10 Boardwalks in the U.S. by Food & Wine, features classic seaside fun—local restaurants, an arcade, ice cream shops, bars, and the famous Britt’s Donuts. In summer, enjoy weekly fireworks and live entertainment, carnival rides, family nights, and Flamingo BINGO. Off‑season brings signature island events like the Cape Fear Kite Festival, Christmas by the Sea, and the Island of Lights Festival. Pleasure Island offers something unforgettable for every traveler—adventure, relaxation, and the perfect coastal escape.

Neighborhood

Carolina Beach boardwalk offers shopping, locally owned restaurants , ice cream & fudge shops and let’s not forget the vibrant nightlife. During the summer months the local boardwalk has live music and entertainment, fireworks and BINGO night. Fishing charter boats, nightly party cruises, and pontoon boat rentals are also available. Or explore the Carolina Beach State Park. Neighboring Kure beach offers a charming downtown with locally owned restaurants, an oceanfront park with live events and entertainment, and a 712-foot long fishing pier. Fort Fisher is located at the southern end of the island where you can visit the Fort Fisher State Historic Site and Museum.

Other Things To Note

You must be at least 25 years of age to book this property.

Getting Around

Getting around Pleasure Island is a breeze! While parking can be limited in peak season, especially in popular spots, paid private or public parking is available. We recommend exploring Carolina Beach and Kure Beach on foot or by bike – they're super walkable and bike-friendly. You'll find safe pedestrian and bike routes, including the Island Greenway. Renting a golf cart or bike is easy, too, with several local rental companies. Golf carts are one of the easiest ways to cruise around the island. Rentals are simple to arrange, and once you're behind the wheel, you can zip along any road posted 35 mph or under.

"The location of this house could not be better with a private boardwalk right to the beach. The house was exactly as described with comfortable beds, well-stocked kitchen, great deck furniture. Bring your own paper products, toiletries/soap/detergent and beach towels/chairs then enjoy the view.

"This house was beautiful, immaculate and spacious. The beach is gorgeous and our family had a wonderful time. We absolutely loved the area and this home was so nice with tons of space to play. The wrap around porch was so beautiful and a nice space to play. As advertised they don't have any toiletry amenities, so I was glad that was specified clearly so we knew to buy our own. It was easy to find and to access on our own. We loved the space and would definitely return.

"We loved the house, lots of room for everyone, loved the porch, so relaxing. Would rent it again for sure!! The only negative think was placing maintenance calls. Communication was poor and we could not understand each other. The dish washer dis not work very well and a part had to be ordered. Also the flies near the garage cans was really bad. We would bring some kind of spray next time

"Anchored In was a great oceanfront beach house for our family vacation. Lots of room, fantastic deck for relaxing, well-equipped kitchen, and comfortable beds. Our only issue during the week was WiFi- related. The WiFi wasn’t working initially, but after contacting property management, it was resolved within 24 hours. We would rent this home again!

Perfect for a family reunion

Review Date: July 21, 2022

Vacation Date: June 25, 2022

"Beautiful, well-appointed property set up to host an extended family. We spent our time walking, playing and lounging on the quiet beach in front of the house, taking short walks to the Kure Beach proper, enjoying activities and restaurants in nearby Carolina Beach, and relaxing in a comfy chair on the large, shaded porches at the house. The kitchen is well-appointed, has plenty of dishes and everything you need to cook for a crew. We did have issues with a broken dishwasher and downstairs refrigerator, so we had to hand wash lots of dishes and shop for smaller batches than planned. Also recommend that you bring extra bath towels as the one issued per person is not sufficient. Despite these challenges, the house is perfect for an extended family gathering and we had a wonderful time! Be sure to get up early for gorgeous sunrise views or end your day watching Kure Beach pier or Carolina Beach fireworks - all from the convenience of your porch!!
