HELLO SUMMER! My wife and I invite you to view our home and hopefully make it your summer stay. Our home is in amazing location, set back from the street and surrounded by mature trees giving a private feel, but only a short walk to the beach. The land mass here is not very wide, only 5 rows of homes from the beach to the main road and 1 row to the sound. That means there is no rush to get to the beach, sleep in; plenty time to find a great spot. The beach is huge and most days the water has a glistening emerald glow. Also a new beach access was constructed in 2017 and located close to the home. Our home features a cavernous and open reverse floor plan with ceilings vaulted eleven feet. New for this year is all three bathrooms have been upgraded with vanities, counter tops, water fixtures, led lighting and toilets. The master bath also has a new enlarged shower. The living room has new reclining couches and the 1st floor entry has all new led lighting fixtures. Lastly the top deck is now finished with composite railing and decking.The top deck is now bare feet freindly and just a great spot to hang out The kitchen is roomy and entirely supplied with everything needed to whip up a great meal, while watching the waves. There is seating for six at the kitchen peninsula. The main feature of the dining area is a handmade reclaimed wood table, that seats six comfortably and still have a nice view of the ocean.. After dinner hit the couches and watch the 55 inch TV. All the TV’s have HD cable and Wi-Fi is throughout the home. Better yet, grab a drink and step out onto the deck and just relax, watch the waves and listen to that ocean. Also on this level are a half bath and a huge pantry.The 3 bedrooms are located on the first floor. We have a master with a king size bed, memory foam bed, attached bath, enormous closet and a wall mounted 40 inch flat screen TV . This room has access to the first floor deck. Second bedroom features a queen size bed ,memory foam bed, sizable closet and a wall mounted 32 inch flat screen TV. This room also has access to the first floor deck. The third bedroom has 2 twin beds, a modest closet and a wall mounted 32 inch flat screen TV. All the bedrooms feature ceiling fans. The main bathroom is also on this level and has a tub/shower combo. The main entry is on the ground level. As you enter the home you come into a laundry area/catch all, great place to drop all the beach gear. One flight up and you're on the bedroom level. Outside we have a sizable private outdoor shower with hot and cold water and a nice seating area under the home. Also, we have a large picnic table and a gas grille, great for a fast outdoor lunch. Anyone making a trip to the beach knows how valuable that packing space in the car is, so we have beach chairs and umbrellas for you to use. We have plenty of parking and all the exterior lighting is dusk to dawn, making it safer coming and going at nighttime. We are located roughly 3 miles from the center of town, close enough to bicycle and discover. We are renting Sunday to Sunday. This year we added towels and linens into the booking fee, if you don't need them, let us know and they will be removed before you book. We try very hard to keep our place refreshed, clean and comfortable for our guest. Please read our reviews and feel complimentary to contact Stephanie with any questions. Thanks for looking and we hope to hear from you. John & Steph

Tips and Tricks to get the optimal vacation home experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Booking your rental up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Book your Morehead City rental property in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Morehead City vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Morehead City visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides contain deals for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Planning, selecting, and booking a perfectrental home:

• Select vacation week and max budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Location, charm, and convenience! Come stay and see for yourself! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is right for your trip.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you will need a pet-friendly property. Request details on breed, size, and type requirements. Usually, property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Tips for a fantastic stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. Store the host's information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would back home.
• During check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean 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.
• Did your group have a excellent time? Many rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
