In addition to golf cart rentals, they offer fast arrival taxi service in Carolina Beach, Kure Beach and Fort Fisher. Only $5 per person to get where you want to be. From the NC Aquarium to the North End Pier, they’re only a phone call away.
NOTE: Per recent changes in our HOA rules, golf carts are allowed on the premises but can not be charged using the electrical outlets on or near the building due to fire and safety concerns. Charging stations and other outlets can be accessed throughout the island. We thank you for your cooperation.
