Ocean View, Single Family Home with Elevator. Bed Configuration: 1 King, 3 Queens.
The secret to happiness is the air we breathe, the people with whom we spend our lives, and where we choose to lay our heads — especially when it comes to a fairy tale vacation! It’s a little-known fact that at the coast— the air is fresher, life is sweeter, and friends will flock to our side to appreciate the beauty and benefits of the sea.

At “Once Upon a Tide,” you can spend your time wisely with your nearest and dearest and soak in the joys of the shore! This three-story beach home is a vision of modern design, complete with clean lines and a cool neutral color palette that makes for a carefree mood that feels like summer all year long!

The open layout lends itself well to flow and function, making celebrating— no matter the occasion— a delight to experience. The pretty gourmet kitchen with seats at the bar is an invitation to gather together and just be with the group or to sit solo and savor the tranquility and peaceful. Roomy sunshiney rooms, luxe details and a sophisticated style all set the tone for the ideal holiday and a home that feels like your home away from home.

There is plenty of room to accommodate with three bedrooms to choose from with a king or queen bed selection; it’s simple to have friends and family members all stay for the good cheer! Each bedroom has its own bath, whether a walk-in shower is what you need or a tub to soak in is more your style.

Spend your days searching for shells and listening to the sounds of the surf or cast a line right from the sand to catch a bite— for fun or your next meal! Options for activities are countless from this address —from sipping morning coffee on the porch to hosting dinner from the grille to heading out for drinks and a charming time for two— the world is your oyster when you stay on the beach!

Booking the best Morehead City vacation home experience:

When to book a Morehead City rental & When to go:

  • Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
  • To get the best value, shift your family's Morehead City trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Morehead City vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
  • Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your family qualifies for a discount.
  • Property management companies frequently offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
  • Look for your local Morehead City visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines contain discounts for local tours and attractions.

Selecting the best rental in the Morehead City area:

  • First and foremost, have your group agree to a vacation week and a budget.
  • Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Oceanside Home with Elevator in Atlantic Beach, NC! (Once Upon a Tide) has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
  • Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before you book the property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
  • Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or charges applied to your contract.
  • Visiting for a single event or attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
  • Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

Know before you go:

  • Add the owner's phone number to your phone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
  • Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of difficulties.
  • Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would back home.
  • At Check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Record all coorespondence.
  • Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers disrupting your peace. Practice the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've never otherwise known!
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can usually help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
  • Just before checking out, take a walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
  • Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent ratings to stimulate more bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
