Welcome to Happy Ours! Ocean Ridge is one of those distinct and exclusive spots where the name of the street has become part of the local lore and symbolizes so much. In this case, conjuring up images of peaceful beaches, pristine waters and luxe living. The neighborhood is a prominent and favorite Atlantic Beach locale. Homes began to be constructed decades ago to be adored generation after generation— for families and beachgoers, whether year-round, for holidays or as a summer home.
Along with the ideal oceanfront location with sweeping vistas of the sand and the surf, you will find classic homes— from the modest, sweet Cape Cod style cottages to bigger, more modern designs decked out in cedar shakes like this home that flaunts more than 5,000 sq feet of light-filled space. Enchanting scenery, prestige and timeless style are the unifying factors all along this single-street community.
This home was constructed to highlight the handsome surroundings and enhance the quality of life for all who enter. From the bottom to the top third floor, each level has been thoughtfully designed and laid out for ease and flow, family and friends, and the joy of coastal living.

The basement is where you’ll find the bunk room, featuring a king bed and two sets of twin bunk beds with full beds on the bottom and twins on top. This level features a full bathroom with a tiled walk-in shower.
The second level is the main floor of the home, where you will gather with guests to relax, appreciate meals together or plan events, big or modest. This home is the ideal place to celebrate any occasion, and the backdrop of rolling waves and sunshine will enhance any event! The gourmet kitchen and open floor plan make mingling and spreading good cheer effortless.
This level is also where you will find one of the primary bedrooms with a full master bath and walk-in tile shower. There is a powder room with a half bath in the entryway, too!
Welcome to the third floor and another primary suite with a king bed and full master bath. This floor offers an additional bedroom and king bed. This full bath includes a shower and a bathtub for those mornings or nights when you need a hot soak in the tub! The fourth bedroom has two queen beds, a full bath, a tub and shower, and even a fifth bedroom with a king-size bed that shares a bathroom with bedroom number four.
In addition to the marvelous space inside, the opportunity to savor your surroundings continues outdoors. Happy Ours is where you can while away the hours with a beverage or glass of wine on porches and patios or by the pool. Unwind, take time to be you and marvel at the unbeatable Carolina sunsets while you watch the clouds float by. When it’s time to tear yourself away, there is fun to be had only a hop skip and a jump away. Head to the celebrated Circle for ice cream, hit up the local stores, visit the sharks at the NC Aquarium, or have dinner out on the town. When you stay at Happy Ours, every hour is a happy one! **Property has outdoor security cameras**

Tips and Tricks to get the optimal vacation home experience:

Getting the best value:

• To find the best rental home within your budget, we highly recommend booking in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Morehead City vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose your vacation week and maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration you need. Oceanfront Home with Private Pool & Elevator (Happy Ours) has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is often available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property manager before you reserve the vacation home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You'll need to establish what configuration is right for your family.
• If there's an individual Morehead City destination you are enamored with, browse homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or charges might be applied to your agreement.

Tips for a fantastic stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. Store the host's information in your smartphone.
• Note any issues with the property at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of problems.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an incredible resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental property while you're away! Don't let burglars spoil your vacation.
• Double-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out 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.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on good reviews to drive future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers 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 expeditiously to fix it.
