Please note the stormwater pipe in the gallery photos. The town recommends not swimming within 200 ft. of the pipe.

What our guests say 12 Reviews

We've rented with Carolina Designs since 1990 and have always had an excellent experience. Their homes and service consistently meet the needs of our growing beach group. This year's home, Drop Anchor, was especially outstanding -- so well suited to our group that we hope to rent it again next year and for years to come!

This was our 4th year renting from Carolina Designs, and our 2nd year in Drop Anchor. We have rented from other companies in OBX over the years and can say that the standards of the CD homes is much higher. We have already booked our home for 2026! Thanks so much!
