About this Property

• Sleeps 12

This 2nd row beauty has it all! Great OCEAN VIEWS without the oceanfront rental prices (and it's CLEAN)! Beach access is simple 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 entirely 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 amazing 'Beach Retreat', so please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions, comments or concerns.

Tips and Tricks to get the best Morehead City vacation property experience:

When to reserve a Morehead City rental home & When to go:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. To get the best value, consider shifting your trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Morehead City vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Morehead City area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines contain offers and deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Filter your rental search:

• First and foremost, have your group choose date ranges and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Almost Ocean Front, 2nd Row, Great Ocean Views, Easy Beach Access, Quiet Street has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible on booking websites. If not, email the property management company before booking the property. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what bed configuration is optimal for your vacation family.
• Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or charges applied to your contract.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before booking

Advice for a great stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Store the host's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of issues.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are out, just like you would back home.
• Note any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are useful if there is a dispute.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your life at home. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Double-check the property to make sure that you've packed everything on check-out day. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to stimulate more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
