From upscale links-side estates to low-maintenance patio homes, this coastal North Carolina community has something for everyone - whether you’re looking to get in on the action or get away from it all.

Wilmington's most unique waterfront community just across the Cape Fear River from Historic Downtown Wilmington and the Atlantic Ocean. Featuring creeks and waterways with almost every homesite on the water. Often referred to as the “Cape Fear Coast,” few places can match the Wilmington area's wide range of recreational features, cultural offerings, and historical ambience. With an average annual temperature of 63.7 degrees, Wilmington has become one of the top relocation areas in the United States.
Being just a few minutes drive from Myrtle Beach, South Carolina and the warm and sandy beaches of Sunset Beach and Ocean Isle Beach NC, you can see why residents here think that they have discovered paradise. Anchoring this lovely community is the beautiful, well designed and challenging Crow Creek golf course, complete with 18 holes, driving range and putting green.
