Since 1932
Not only do we have our own personal vacation rental properties on the island, our family has been visiting Carolina Beach since 1932.

Award-winning
Software
Becoming dependent on one online travel agency (OTA), like Airbnb, may be fine at first. But expanding your reach is a must to keep up with supply and demand in response to maximizing your property's potential. Our refined resources allow owners to utilize multiple OTA's at once, with the addition of Google Vacation Rentals, custom direct booking websites, curated email campaigns, socials, dynamic pricing, and a multitude of other powerful tools strategically integrated by North Carolina Cottages.
We care
At North Carolina Cottages, we pride ourselves on caring for each and every property we manage as if it were our own. We're not just focused on revenue efficiency and maximization. We care deeply about our guests and their experience (earning that 5 star review), developing strong communication and response rates (during all hours of the day), minimizing future owner maintenance, and spending time on overall property care. We would like for you to be successful for many years to come, not just in the short-term.
