DESCRIPTION:
As you walk into the entryway you feel instantly at home. While both the formal dining area and living rooms are separate from the kitchen the space still feels open and inviting. The sky high ceilings of the living area offer impressive light throughout the day while the decor helps keep the feeling comfortable. The kitchen offers upgraded appliances and all of the cookware needed to create your favorite meals. If you include the breakfast nook and dining table seats you will have enough for a group of 12 but there are also seats along the bar.

The primary bedroom is just off the living room and comfortably offers a king bed and private bathroom. The bedroom is filled with light and space and the theme continues into the stately bath… there is a soaking tub, standing shower and a double vanity. Through the bathroom you will find a door to the laundry room with a full sized washer and dryer. Privacy isn’t an issue as the laundry has access from the common area of the home as well.

Heading up the winding staircase to the open balcony type hall you will comfortably find both of the other guest rooms both with Queen beds and private baths.

Down the stairwell from the kitchen area is where all of the fun can happen- there is another guest room with 2 twin beds and private bath as well as a recreation room with 2 twin/twin bunk beds. Also on this level you will be able to access the 2nd refrigerator, garage for the golf cart, and another entrance to the hot tub and grilling area.

The screened in and wrap around porches are purposely furnished with tables and rockers for guest use. They are all effortlessly accessible through the many doors throughout the main level of the home. The parking is ample as you have access to a circle driveway as well as one behind the home.

All of your beds are made prior to arrival with freshly laundered linens, including the comforters, and are included with a full week’s stay.
The location of this home is within the handsome, private and gated community of Dolphin’s Ridge. The beach access is located at the split of Dolphin Ridge Road and Sandy Court which is where you will be able to leave your cart for a day at the beach. The walk to the beach is roughly less than a 5 min. walk as you are just around the corner from the access.

Getting the best vacation property experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• June, July, and August are high season in the Morehead City area. To get the best value, consider changing your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies usually offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base stay 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 evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Look for your local Morehead City area magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guide magazines contain deals for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Filter your search:

• To start, have your family choose a vacation week and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family requires. Oceanside Interior Home with Private Pool, Hot tub, Golf Cart, in Dolphin Ridge has 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, call the property management company before booking your rental. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.

During your stay:

• Add the property manager's information to your phone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Make a record of any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if there is a dispute.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your peaceful home life. Employ the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out. Protect your property!
• Double-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed everything at check-out. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a excellent stay? Many rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
