The Beacon House Inn is a reminder of days gone by; this original 1950s Boarding House has been transformed into a spectacular North Carolina Beach bed and breakfast. We've updated it with modern day comforts, but we have left much of the original charm throughout. The walls are lined with vintage photographs and memorabilia, and our comfortable décor is meant to be enjoyed! We won't try to take you back in time, but rather remind you of when life was simpler with hopes that this will inspire a very relaxing stay at the Inn. Leave the frenzy behind, curl up on the couch, or relax on one of our three decks, while embracing the need to do nothing - or everything - it's really your choice! In addition to friendly, hospitable service, we offer full southern breakfasts, comfortable beds, quality linens, local discounts and private catering or Package Plans for your special events.
----
Whether it's a romantic dinner, pig roast or group meal, we will design a package that fits your specific needs. Remember that in addition to our Carolina Beach lodging accommodations, we also offer Cottages and Multiple Building rental packages, making us a great choice for a family reunion, wedding or group gathering of any kind. Our on-site Innkeepers are happy to help you plan your stay and arrange any activities you might be interested in. Feel free to call ahead, we would be happy to help you plan for local events and activities. Put yourselves in our hands for a totally relaxing bed and breakfast experience where you don't have to think unless you choose to!

Carolina Beach, one of North Carolina's best beaches, boasts 5 miles of pristine beach and is close enough to easily enjoy historic Wilmington, Fort Fisher, the North Carolina Aquarium, Southport and Bald Head Island. Although we are just across the street from the beach, we are surrounded by numerous other outdoor activities, including fishing, golf, sailing, surfing, kayaking and bird watching. We're in the heart of Carolina Beach, NC, just 7 blocks from the Boardwalk and center of town. We're 20 minutes from the Wilmington Airport and not far from others such as Myrtle Beach, Jacksonville, and Raleigh-Durham. Let us know where you're coming from and we can provide you with directions.

Meet your Innkeepers--Noah and Charlotte Gunnell, relocated from Portland, OR to The Beacon House Inn! Between the two of them, they have visited over 21 countries and they now look forward to exploring the East Coast and sharing your travels with you!  They have a unique perspective on the needs of all kinds of travelers, having traveled from Costa Rica to India, and many places in between.  Guest houses and Bed and Breakfasts have always been their favorite kind of accommodations and now they get to make The Beacon House yours!
 
Noah was born in Louisville, KY and moved to England with his family at the age of eight. In 1991, Noah returned to the U.S. and later obtained a BA Fine Art/Photography from San Francisco State University. He has a strong background in hospitality, including employment at Yosemite National Park and Spanish Peaks Resort.
 
Charlotte is a native Oregonian, and has worn many hats over the years. Past titles have included restaurant manager at Doe Bay Resort and event coordinator for a full-service catering company. About seven years ago, Charlotte moved in a different direction, and became a commercial property manager for a major real estate owner/developer.
 
Prior to becoming Innkeepers, Noah and Charlotte resided in a sleepy Portland neighborhood with their two cats, Rubi and Snowman. They met, became engaged, and then in 2011, married on the same spot – in front of the Moreland Theater. In their spare time they enjoy photography, leisurely bike rides, making new friends, breakfast for any meal, camping, cooking,  local events and of course, travel.
 
Noah and Charlotte look forward to warmly welcoming you to The Beacon House Inn Bed & Breakfast and ensuring your stay is only the best!
