GOLF CARTS •To the county, golf carts are considered automobiles. Generally speaking, golf carts are NOT allowed on premises of ANY condo, condotel, or apartment. The same goes for trailers, motorcycles, etc. For SFR’s or properties supporting multiple vehicles, carts should be OK. However, be conscious that few homes have external outlets WITHOUT GFCI’S (which are code by today’s standards). Charging a cart on a GFCI will immediately trip the breaker, resulting in the inability to charge a cart amongst other repercussions. Gas carts will generally be the ideal rental option if in a home whose parking supports such. •ALL suites are non-smoking (including vaping) and a heavy cleaning/repair charge can result if not adhered to. This includes porches, decks, balconies, and walkways. •There is a $150 non-refundable pet fee for up to two pups. There is a two-dog maximum unless an exception is granted. Pup rules for Pet Friendly homes •Any interactions between your furry son or daughter and other neighbors (animal OR human) are completely at your discretion. •Pups are NEVER allowed on any furniture. •Do NOT let your pup bark excessively in any multi-unit environment. •ALWAYS pick up after your pup IMMEDIATELY after the potty sesh. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 8 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 7 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - Up to 23 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - Lift - Smoke-free property ### Location highlights - On a lake ### Things to do - Kayak ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Garden - Recycling - Unit size: 53,820 square feet - Water-efficient toilets ## Similar properties ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/100000000/99680000/99674400/99674379/179896f7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### ☀️Atlantic Views- Beautiful 8BR Home with Private Pool and Hot Tub!☀️ Kure Beach - Sea view - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen 8.0 Very good 7 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-03&endDate=2025-11-04&selected=99674379&PinnedHotelID=99674379&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/19000000/18980000/18979900/18979866/f9bd1710.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Spacious Kure Beach home for Reunions & Families, with Pool & Steps to the Ocean Kure Beach - Sea view - Pool - Kitchen - Washer 9.6 Exceptional 50 reviews £792 includes taxes & fees 1 Nov - 2 Nov [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-01&endDate=2025-11-02&selected=18979866&PinnedHotelID=18979866&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/93000000/92990000/92981600/92981595/d55ce361.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### GIANT HOUSE WITH GIANT WATER VIEWS!
