It’s a family-oriented beach with a touch of everything one might be looking for! It’s an AMAZING place to visit, live, and never leave!

If you like adventures, the marina is also there where you can take an offshore fishing trip, diving excursion, or party boat out for a sunset sail. Camping more your thing? Bring the 4X4 and drive (and camp) on the beach at Freeman Park, located on the North End of the island.

As you pull up to "Paws. . . and RELAX!" A PF getaway in the clouds, you are immediately greeted by an amass of pilings, pillars, and bracings that almost resemble a massive, elevated ship getting ready for its maiden voyage! Underneath the home, there’s space for 6-8 vehicles dependent upon size. Two separate stairways (one Eastern, one Western) provide access up to your CB Sandcastle in the clouds.

The entry to this truly unique 3 bedroom/3.5 bath home opens up into a “galley” of bedrooms and bathrooms strewn across the sandy first-floor footprint. Residing at the intersection of Sand Fiddler Ln and Canal Drive, Glousterman offers unimpeded Atlantic views throughout the home thanks to the access. The Northern end of the home affords various ICWW and canal marshland views. From feather grass and sandy dunes to hazy sunrises and drifts of sand illuminated by the moon, access to EVERYTHING Pleasure Island has to offer is steps from your room.

A pair of spacious bedrooms (#1 and #2) accommodate adventurers with Queen size beds, private wardrobes, and plenty natural light and all the vitamin SEA one can possibly need! The laundry room rests conveniently just off the main hallway. Heading to the Northern most tip of SS Glousterman, the captains’ quarters await!

Complete with a King size bed, private wet bar, mini-fridge, ensuite bath (with jacuzzi-tub) and French door access outside, the master bedroom (bedroom #3) is definitely where the treasure chest would be kept, courses charted, and parrot would ask for a cracker! A Queen size pullout is also available inside the master for an impromptu extra guest upgrade!

As we open the French doors out onto the deck, an incredible expansive outdoor space opens! Complete with a (second!) wet bar, sectional couch, lounge chairs, and numerous other R&R specific furnishings, the sprawling wrap-around deck is surely a sight to behold. The centerpiece of the entertainment area is an 8-person hot tub which overlooks the marshland and is the perfect exclamation point to cap off a day of beach combing and sun soaking.

As we head upstairs towards the homes upper mast, you soon encounter a large open layout comprised of a dining area, gourmet kitchen, and family room. Granite, stainless steel, and the newest technologies are strewn across the space. Just off the family room sits a lofty exterior balcony complete with a dining table for 6, views for days, and long overdue conversations that last indefinitely.

Pleasure Island is a coastal barrier island in Southeastern North Carolina, USA just south of the City of Wilmington. Pleasure Island is located within Federal Point Township, in New Hanover County. The coastal resort towns of Carolina Beach and Kure Beach, as well as the annexed communities of Wilmington Beach and Hanby Beach are located on the island.

The home itself is under one block from the nearest beach access. The property is a short drive from down town Carolina Beach with its shops, activities and dining and is equidistant to the smaller, but just as charming Down Town Kure Beach. There are fireworks during the summer every Thursday night, Movies at the lake each Sunday night, and local fairs around the lake each Saturday morning. Carolina Beach is a mix of friendly locals, snowbirds, and vacationers all looking to escape the inland and enjoy the sand, surf, and atmosphere.

Carolina Beach and the surrounding neighborhoods offer an array of sights and activities to enjoy while here. Some of these examples are (but not limited to) a subtle beach hike through Carolina Beach State Park, Fishing on the Kure Beach Pier, kayaking to one of the many islands surrounding the Intracoastal Waterway, watching canons blast during a historical reenactment at the Fort Fisher State Historic Site, or petting some Sting Rays at the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher. Our own local Brewery (Good Hops) along with a round of Frisbee golf may be what the doctor ordered!

There isn’t anywhere or anything on our Island that isn’t accessible with foot power. Downtown Carolina Beach has several vendors such as Tony Silvagni’s Surf School @ 308 S Lake Park Blvd, Carolina Beach, NC 28428 (bicycles, paddle boards, surfboards, kayaks, chairs, and umbrellas) for rent as an alternative to walking or driving. There's Sun Fun Rentals @1204 N Lake Park Blvd Unit F Carolina Beach, NC 28428. Taxi’s (local golf cart taxi’s) and Uber’s are also generally available for an assist when needed as well throughout the island! You can catch a Ferry to Southport in Kure Beach @ 2422 Fort Fisher Blvd S Kure Beach which leads to another ferry to Bald Head Island where NO CARS are allowed at all! After all, you won’t catch many locals going OTB! (Over The Bridge). Everything you need is right here!
