About this property

Oceanfront Ground Floor Condo with Pool (Riggings D1)

**June through August are weekly rentals only with turnovers on Saturday**

Ground floor, end unit directly on the ocean! You just don’t get closer than this. Watch the sunrise from your private balcony. Just steps away from the beach. 2 miles to Kure Beach pier, 2 miles to NC aquarium, 5 miles to Carolina Beach Boardwalk. This unit has one bedroom with a king bed and two twin bunk beds in the hallway. Full kitchen with microwave, dishwasher, Keurig machine (please bring k cups), toaster and all utensils, dishes and glasses. Unit has WiFi, Netflix and cable TV. TVs in living room and bedroom. Washer/dryer. Absolutely no need to bring anything. We are stocked like a hotel with all sheets and linens cleaned for you and ready before you arrive. We also are fully stocked with toilet paper, paper towels and laundry detergent.

This condo is located all the way at the end of the beach strand by Fort Fisher. What that means is the beach is never packed. At times, you will feel like you are on your own private beach. If you prefer crowds, go one mile South to Fort Fisher Beach area or two miles North by the pier. Surf fishing is primo directly in front of the condo because of a large rock formation off of Fort Fisher. Just to the North a couple hundred feet, you will find one of North Carolina’s very few coquina rock outcroppings. The kids will be entertained for hours playing on the rocks.

**We ask that you please bring your own beach gear due to the lack of storage in the unit and gear continually disappearing**

**Pool typically opens early May and closes mid September. Closure of pool relates to weather and can change.**

**In the Spring and Summer, the beach is typically very plentiful. In the Fall and Winter, we can get what are called “King Tides”. These are extremely high tides due to the moons position with the earth. They happen monthly for about 5-6 days. Combine that with strong NE winds and you will have very high tides which can cause lots of sand to be removed from the beach, exposing sandbags that are mostly covered in Summer. There is still room to walk the beach heading north from condo. The beach replenishes itself VERY fast afterwards, so conditions can change in a matter of days**

** We have a security camera at the front door and on the exterior perimeter of the balcony. No part of your balcony is in view of the camera. We use this camera to monitor potential threatening storms and sea levels. Audio is disabled.**

** This condo is located directly ON the beach. We have a very warm and humid climate. Being on the ground floor, insects such as palmetto bugs can enter through the tiniest cracks, especially the screen doors. If insects bother you,please leave the slider door and front door shut as much as possible. Although we perform regular pest control, we cannot guarantee it to be pest free. We cannot compensate for the presence of pests and insects.**

**Absolutely NO pets allowed per HOA rules and regulations.**

**In order of our cancellation policy, we will no longer accept alteration requests within 30 days of your reservation.**

VRBO has changed the cleaning fee charge to “Host fee”. Please know this charge goes directly to the cleaners for cleaning this property and we aren’t charging any additional fees.

Perfect in Every Way
The condo was exactly as shown and described. Very clean, beautifully decorated and appointed-all we had to bring was our toiletries and food. I am very picky about mattresses and the bed was very comfortabke. Loved being able to step out on the balcony and watch the waves and sea life. Steps to the beach. Will definitely be coming back, just sorry I couldn't stay longer thus time. James was very responsive and helpful with clear, concise information.

Great experience!
The property was exactly as advertised. It was very clean, perfectly maintained and fully stocked with paper products, linens etc. James was helpful, responsive and good at communicating. The condo was a very comfortable size for my family of 3. Great location on Kure beach. Best feature is definitely the wonderful back porch — just like being on the beach but with a little less sand and more shade! Would definitely return.

Delightful Stay
We had a lovely stay at James' condo at The Riggings. We've stayed at multiple units in this complex, and we adore it. This unit was well appointed (great bed!), very clean, and had everything we needed for our stay. We were greeted by dolphins in the water our first two days, and loved watching the waves from the balcony. We love Kure Beach and all this unit has to offer.

winter retreat
The property was everything that is listed and the photos are spot on. James is a great host, and keeps his guest up to date on happenings around the condo. We had a great stay and will be coming back when we can.

A wave of relaxation!
Our favorite part about this condo is how close it is to the ocean. We never feel the need to leave the condo/balcony to go to the beach because it's right there! Complete relaxation! The condo is always clean (we've stayed 3 different times) and the owner is always helpful and easy to work with. We also enjoy popping over to the aquarium, which is very close, and walking the pathways by Ft Fisher. This has become our home away from home.

About the host

Hosted by James Blydenburgh

Host profile image
Hello, I am James. After running a business in Raleigh NC for 20 years, I decided to sell my business and become a full time host. I rented out my second home at Kure Beach for many years and just loved providing vacation rentals for my wonderful guests. I have since expanded my business and own three condos in Kure Beach, one condo in Carolina Beach, one cottage at Badin Lake and one home in West Jefferson in the Blue Ridge Mountains. I strive to provide rentals that are above and beyond what people expect to have in a rental and wouldn't rent anything to our guests that I wouldn't enjoy staying in myself.

Why they chose this property

We are fully stocked with all the necessities, allowing you to just bring clothes and toiletries. This property sits at the end of the island, so the beach is very quiet. If you are looking for a relaxing beach, this is it! If you want to see a crowd, drive a couple miles up the road to Kure Beach public access and you will have it. We are right next to Fort Fisher, where you have lots of walking trails, sidewalks with amazing views of either the ocean or the Cape Fear River. Kure Beach pier is just a 3 minute drive or a long walk down the beach. Carolina Beach is about a 10 minute drive and there you can access the boardwalk with all the shops, restaurants, carnival and fireworks every Thursday night in the summer. What can be better?!
