There is a Beach re-nourishment done in Carolina and Kure beach every 3 years. This helps to keep our beaches safe from erosion. Please note that we have no control over this project and that it is normally concluded by May, but there is a possibility of delays.

Great spot

We really enjoyed our stay at driftwood cottage. The location was perfect. Walking distance to the boardwalk, ice cream, and restaurants. We knew it didn’t have a pool beforehand so that was fine for us. Condo was clean and we felt safe there. Awesome place to relax.

Great place to stay.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our time here and are planning on going back next year. I would suggest that you take a tub mat due to the tub being so slippery.

Great location.

Great location, my only complaint was the pet stains on the carpet. We did not get the initial email with address and access code, but I called and got instructions via text instantly. Would definitely book again
