About this apartment rental
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 highly suggest you purchase travel insurance for stays during the months of June through October, however the most active months for hurricanes are September and October. Refunds will not be offered for poor weather unless the property is uninhabitable**
**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.

We've stayed at The Riggings for nine of our eleven visits to Kure/Carolina Beach, and this unit was, by far, my favorite! It was nicely furnished and the extras, like detergents, soaps, paper goods, etc. were an added plus. It truly made traveling and being away from home an easy escape for the week. I ran into an issue with a blown fuse, as predicted by James, but he was quickly available to assist, and we were able to work through it in just a few minutes. The only complaint one may have is the "big" water bugs. I know units at the beach are treated for bugs regularly and bugs are a common occurrance, but it's still creepy to turn on a light and see something scurry across the floor or counter. My son wasn't happy with that, but I was able to squish them on the floor or grab them in a paper towel and dispose of them. Next time, I'll charge them rent! It was a wonderful week at our favorite place. I'm hoping the unit is available again next year.
**Suggestion: Maybe supply a deck of cards, a couple of board games, or a puzzle for guests to use on rainy days. Just a thought.**

The views from unit D-1 at The Riggings were unsurpassed. At high tide there isn't much, if any beach in front of the unit but the views are AMAZING! There is beach at both ends of the property and, as the owner states, it is not crowded -- even on 45h of July week. Would have preferred to receive check in information a day earlier so I'd have plenty of time to print and pack but otherwise, everything was PERFECT. Not a word I often use. The condo was spotless, plenty of paper products, hand soap, dish soap, well stocked kitchen with pots and pans, knives, etc. I brought a few items but didn't need to unpack them. It was a great trip and we loved our condo on the water. A+++

This place was perfect for the two of us. First floor right on the beach was awesome. The place was very clean and had everything you would need. James provided us via email a list of local restaurants and even let us know about a space x launch that was happening one night that we were able to see. We will definitely come back to this property!

This stay was perfect from start to finish. If you are looking to stay in this area and this condo is available, book it. The highlight for us was the combination of having the shade on the outside deck overlooking the water with the option of a few steps away of sitting on the beach in the sun. James is a great host and everything that is described in his posting is exactly what you’ll find. Will definitely try to get back here again next year.
Again, a great stay. Don’t miss out on visiting this gem on Kure beach.

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.

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.

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.

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.

My husband and I really needed to decompress for the weekend and wish we could have stayed another day. It was so nice! Easy check in and check out. The owner was nice and easy to communicate with.

This condo was not only right on the beach but also very clean. I had a very serene visit waiting the waves, tides and pelicans. You can’t get any closer to the ocean!! The condo was very well suited for someone with physical limitations. James was very helpful. He even clued me in on where to find Kure Beach souvenirs! I’m looking forward to returning to this property!

Had the opportunity to stay here so that my brother and I could take our father fishing at the coast. Loved the location on the first floor as my father has some mobility issues. Wonderful location…will be staying there again.

Perfect location. You can't get any nearer to the ocean - just steps from this ground floor condo. And it's close to the pool too. Very quiet area, except for the wonderful sound of the ocean. This is a place to relax and is only minutes away from restaurants, the aquarium, Fort Fisher and the ferry to Southport. The condo has everything you need for a worry free vacation.

This is by far the best property we have ever stayed in in this area. James is a wonderful host and the condo was immaculate. The bed was very comfortable as was the living room furniture. The view cannot be beat. We will definitely plan our vacation around this property's availability next year.

This was our 4th year staying in Kure Beach. My husband & our 2 girls love how close we can stay to the water. We’ve always enjoyed our stays but there’s always something about each place that could be better. Whether it wasn’t cleaned very well, or maybe the pool could be closer or the balcony didn’t get a good breeze or the tv was too difficult. This was the FIRST place that we literally had NO complaints!! I didn’t feel like I needed to clean when we got there :) the place is also updated nicely. Love all the counter space in the bathroom & the fact that she shower head was a handheld which makes showers with kids SO much easier. This was the first year we let the kids sleep in bunk beds and several of the other places we looked at didn’t have the top bunk railing which was a must and actually ended up being the deciding factor between this place and one other. Love that we were so close to our reserved parking spot and didn’t have any stairs to go up and down going in the place. James is very helpful and loved that he took the time to give recommendations on places around and made everything so easy! We always go to the aquarium which is minutes down the road. This year we tried something different and drove to Wilmington for the day to Jungle Rapids and had a great time! It’s only 30 minutes away & so worth it. This is also the first place we’ve ever stayed that literally everything we needed was supplied. (Cleaning supplies, toilet paper and paper towels!)

I love this unit so much. The location is perfect. I love how the deck gives you a great view of the ocean without being too much in the sun. The unit is incredibly clean and well stocked. Everything is very intuitive to find or use. It's just my favorite place in Kure Beach. I had a great time. Thanks again!

This was our first time at Kure Beach and it definitely will not be our last! The location was absolutely wonderful! Waking up and being able to hear the ocean and see the sunrise was a perfect way to start our day! The property itself was well stocked and beautiful! We were blessed with wonderful weather and our 5 year old did not want to leave! We can't wait to come back!

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.

This place was a little off the beaten path. It was quiet and had it's own little beach area for the condos there. The grocery store from in Carolina beach delivered all the essentials to us, including beer! We had such a fun, relaxing week! Everyone we came across was so very friendly.

The property was exactly as expected. Very clean, and perfect for a family of 3-4. Beautiful oceanfront view, that's in an excellent location, just between Fort Fisher Aquarium and Kure Beach Pier. Owner James, is quick to respond, and thorough with arrival/departure instructions. Great place!!

Oceanfront with a balcony to enjoy, walks on the beach, and the sound of the waves. Lots of privacy being at the end of Kure Beach. Cozy, bright, condo with everything you need. What a great place!
