Location Perks You Won’t Find Everywhere

One of the biggest advantages of Bluefish Cottage is its prime location near the no-parking Kure Beach access. Because there’s no public parking at this access point, it naturally stays less crowded, giving you a quieter and more peaceful stretch of beach that visitors often don’t discover unless they’re familiar with the area.

This access is also known as one of the most reliable surf breaks on the island, making it a favorite among local surfers. It’s also a popular fishing spot and a beautiful place to enjoy sunrises and long beach walks. These are the kinds of hidden benefits that truly elevate your stay and aren’t always obvious unless you know the island well.

If you’re looking for comfort, fun, convenience, and one of the best beach locations on the island, Bluefish Cottage checks every box. Book your stay and experience Kure Beach like a local.

Area Attractions:
Kure Beach is a perfect destination for family-friendly fun, offering a variety of activities and attractions. Families can enjoy a stroll or fishing at the historic Kure Beach Pier, one of the oldest on the East Coast, or explore local history at the Fort Fisher State Historic Site, where kids can roam the remains of a Civil War fort. Nearby, the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher offers hands-on exhibits and fascinating marine life. Outdoor enthusiasts will love Fort Fisher State Recreation Area, with its beach access, fishing, and scenic trails. The Ocean Front Park & Pavilion is another great spot for families, featuring a playground, picnic areas, and regular outdoor events. Even pets can join in on the fun at the Kure Beach Dog Park. With its relaxing atmosphere and variety of activities, Kure Beach is a great spot for a family getaway.

Stayed 2 nights from Christmas day. Cottage was spacious for 6 adults, 1 teenager, 10 year old and two dogs. Had no problem parking two cars in the driveway. House itself was bit old and dated but area was quiet and close to the beach. Fort Fisher was just a short drive away where one can see both Sunrise and Sunset on a clear day. Took bit of a time to get a response as the host only worked during business days/office hours but was able to hear back with info we’ve needed. Overall, we had a nice relaxing time at this cottage and at Kure beach area.
