The Digs is located on the top floor of a riverfront duplex on the Cape Fear River. Just steps from the Snows Cut Trail which takes you directly to Carolina Beach State Park, a 420 acre park with waterfront beaches, hiking trails, and activities. This home is only 5 mins. to the white sandy beach and a short walk to the boat ramp. With a bright and comfortable interior, this home has everything you'll need. Unwind with a drink on one of the enormous private patios and watch the sunset over the river.

We have put a lot of adore into this home to make sure it is a place to bring friends, family and our guests to the beach. Our hope is that you will savor the slow life, relax and reconnect. Maybe catch a fish or more importantly, a nice sun tan.

The screened in back porch is our favorite place to wake up with a cup of coffee or watch the sunset with a beverage in hand. The coastal wildlife seems to come alive in the morning and right before sunset.

The kitchen comes entirely supplied with all the essentials for you to prepare a meal with family and friends. Make sure to save at least one nighttime to appreciate one of our favorite local eateries because the food in CB is GOOD and the drinks are even better. We made sure to stock sunscreen, beach towels and beach chairs to help you relax at the beach.

Both bathrooms are outfitted with the best smelling body wash and soft bath towels. Each bedroom has top of the line memory foam beds and fresh white linens.

In the cooler months, our living room is our ideal place to spend time with friends or by yourself curled up on the couches with your favorite book or just watch the boats pass by. The modular couch pulls out to a queen bed with a memory foam bed.

We do have neighbors that also rent their space and we ask that you keep noise to a minimum. The riverfront is a peaceful place and we ask that everybody be respectful. If you're looking to have a event - this is not the home.

If you like adventure and exploration, you NEED to walk, jog or bicycle the Snows Cut Trail to Carolina Beach State Park. With a marina providing access to some of North Carolina's best fishing spots, a secluded camping area beneath towering trees, and miles of hiking trails that traverse a variety of distinct habitats—not to mention the presence of the Venus flytrap, one of the world's most unique carnivorous plants—it's no wonder Carolina Beach State Park is a trendy coastal attraction.

How to get the best Carolina Beach vacation home experience:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

  • In the Southport area, The sooner you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
  • Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. To get the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
  • Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
  • Booking websites often offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
  • Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area travel guides which include special offers, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Finding the best rental home in Carolina Beach:

  • To start, have your family select vacation dates and a spending budget.
  • Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. The Digs
  • Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property owner before reserving your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
  • If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
  • If there's an individual Southport attraction you crave, look for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
  • Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

  • Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
  • Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
  • Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
  • Upon arrival, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
  • Respect your neighbors. Often times, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
  • At departure, take a final walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Record a video to document the condition of the property.
  • Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on great ratings to propel new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.

Based in Carolina Beach in the coastal Cape Fear region, Victory Beach Vacations has more than 100 vacation rentals in all shapes and sizes to ensure that every vacationing family can find their dream home away from home on the beach.   When you book your Cape Fear getaway with Victory Beach Vacations, the fun doesn’t end when you leave the beach, it continues with an array of privately-owned properties outfitted with all of the amenities needed for a fabulous beach vacation.   Jenna Lanier, General Manager, explains that her family first opened the rental and property management business in 2002. At the forefront of Victory Beach operations is Lanier’s mother, Caroline Meeks. Meeks is both the Broker in Charge and co-owner with husband, Buck Meeks, who manages the Field Services team with Lanier’s husband, Scott.   For nearly 20 years, the Victory Beach team has worked tirelessly to establish a network of top-of-the-line rental properties for Cape Fear visitors to enjoy. “As far as our properties go,” explains Lanier, “they are all updated, well-furnished and appointed. “We have always performed post-cleaning inspections and since the pandemic, have put freshly laundered duvets over all of the comforters between rentals.”   Lanier emphasizes how important the guests experience is “we strive to give our guests a relaxing, stress free, memorable vacation.” This emphasis on customer service has led to Victory Beach Vacations having a 4.8 Google rating with over 300 reviews by happy owners and guests.In addition to Victory Beach’s superior sanitation practices, the company offers properties for every type of visitor.

The former, as described by Lanier, is the more commercialized of the two destinations and features a boardwalk, outdoor dining options and a plethora of weekly activities including fireworks, live music, amusement park pop-ups, and movies under the stars. Kure Beach offers a more residential feel with its fishing pier, intimate restaurants and family favorite, North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher.More water fun awaits, too. “There is a harbor and a canal that feed into the intercoastal. We have several properties on the harbor so guests can bring their boat, kayak, [or jet ski] and travel between islands,” says Lanier.   A stay with Victory Beach Vacations is an annual pilgrimage for most. “A large percentage of guests are previous guests. Some even reserve the same property for the next year as they’re checking out,” Lanier says. “It’s almost like it’s their personal vacation home.”   Even before guests arrive at their vacation destination, the Victory Beach Vacations’ website greets them with a live beach cam and exquisite aerial footage of both Carolina and Kure Beaches.
