And there are no worries about bringing sand back up to the home - you can rinse off in the enclosed outdoor shower before heading inside.

When you step into the Sandfiddler Cottage, you step into a simpler time. Appreciate striking sunsets on the oceanfront deck or do a little soul-searching while resting under the stars on the porch swing. After a day of exploring, head back to the home for a family feast prepared in the well-equipped kitchen - listen to them all chattering around the two dining tables! After that, relax in the living area and watch a little TV or play games with the family.

Tips and Tricks to get the best Atlantic Beach vacation rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are booked very early. Booking your rental property up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in Atlantic Beach. To get the best rental home within budget, we recommend booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Morehead City restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable 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 near the ocean? 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 manager or host whether your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Morehead City visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines have money saving offers on local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Make a plan and pick your prefectvacation home:

• Choose vacation dates and budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Oceanfront beach cottage with large deck & W/D - dog-friendly has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Morehead City rental home search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before booking the home. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish what is optimal for your family.
• Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the owner about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Does your group require particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .

Know before you go:

• Add the owner's information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let burglars spoil your vacation.
• To make certain that damages are not attributed to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas upon your arrival. Call the rental manager right away to document any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to confirm you have not forget anything. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to stimulate new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
