DOGS Well-behaved, house-trained dogs are welcome. No other pets. The non-refundable pet fee is $250. Please be responsible and pick up after your dogs on the property, in the neighborhood, and around Carolina Beach. We have a pooper scooper, a large dog crate, dog bowls, and toys. Leashed dogs are permitted on the beach from April 1-September 30 before 9am and after 5pm. October 1-March 31, dogs are permitted at all hours.

The golf cart rental is for the ENTIRE length of your stay. We do not allow partial stay/partial week rentals; for example, you cannot rent it for one day or only on certain days during your stay.
The cart has a CB parking permit, which allows you to park in any public lot or space (that allows golf carts) at no additional cost to you.
Please let us know if you would like to rent it, as it requires a separate rental agreement and payment outside of VRBO. You will be required to provide proof of insurance and a copy of each person's driver's license.
