About this Property

• Sleeps 12
• 4 Bedrooms
• 3 Bathrooms
• Cottage

This 2nd row beauty has it all! Great OCEAN VIEWS without the oceanfront rental prices (and it's CLEAN)! Beach access is painless and fast, right across the street. Over 2,000 square feet, on a peaceful, non-busy street with a view of the ocean or Bogue sound from every single window in the home! Make this your 2nd home for a week (or two) and you'll never want to leave.

We want your family & friends to have a great experience and forget all of their worries while making great memories that will last a lifetime. Sound too good to be true or too much like a Hallmark card? Well we aren't kidding!

Wake up every morning and walk directly out of your bedroom onto the deck and breathe in Emerald Isle's salty air. Hear the waves crashing on the beach. House has 4 bedrooms with two King beds and two Queen beds (all with deck/balcony access) plus a kids' loft/entertainment area on the 4th level with 4 twin beds. In the den you can even watch TV, look to your left and see the ocean... of course, that's just from the inside, wait until you step out onto the decks!

Beach access is literally steps away across the street with a wooden walkway leading directly to the surf. Families with young kids will savor this convenience by not having to walk far with all your beach supplies and stuff! You also have the convenience of our exhilarating outdoor shower with hot/cold water to wash off the beach sand and lotion.

Cook all of your favorite 'beach foods' in our completely equipped kitchen while looking at the emerald blue ocean. Then dine and entertain inside with family & friends while appreciating the great ocean vistas from the enormous eating area, or have your meals outside on the upper deck where the view and sounds of the ocean enhance the experience.

Watch schools of dolphins in the morning swim by & flocks of pelicans dive in for a snack in the afternoon. If you need some shade, head down to the lower level deck & relax on one of our lounge or rocking chairs. Of course, the decks have great vistas, but nothing can beat hanging out on the beach & swimming in the ocean. After a long day, appreciate our outdoor shower (w/ hot & cold water) and indulge in some great local seafood at one of many eateries within mins. of the home. After the kids have gone to sleep, sneak back out on the deck and look at the moonlight shine over the water with a glass of your favorite drink. Get the best sleep of your life (as long as you put on plenty of sunscreen) and wake up ready to do it all over again!

I hope some of these words have captured just a modest picture of what it is like to vacation at Beach Retreat: East. We have posted tons of photos but nothing compares to actually being here. We really look forward to helping you and your family have an exceptional 'Beach Retreat', so please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions, comments or concerns.

How to find the best Morehead City rental home experience:

Get the most from your rental budget:

• Summertime is high season in Emerald Isle. To find the best value, change your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Morehead City visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides have discounts for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

How to pick the perfect vacation home:

• Select your vacation dates and max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Almost Ocean Front, 2nd Row, Great Ocean Views, Easy Beach Access, Quiet Street has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is regularly available online. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before you book your home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what is best for your group.
• If there's a particular Morehead City attraction you simply love, search for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental
• If your family is bringing pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Request details on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your phone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To make sure that no damages are linked to your family's stay, record any problem areas during arrival. message the host immediately to document any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors bothering your peaceful home life. Use the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property owners rely on good reviews to propel future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
