Just to mention a couple titles from the review page, "Totally striking," "handsome home for a sizable family," "Ideal getaway," "Beautiful beach home in a Fun location." I think you will find our beach home to be your home away from home and that's our goal! In fact one renter called it "home away from home!"
This is a Substantial, Striking, 6 bedroom, and 5 bathrooms on the sound. The 4th floor sleeps 4 and has a enormous sitting room with a HUGE TV--the kids will never leave! The 3rd floor has 3 bedrooms including the king master with high ceilings and striking vistas. The second floor has one bedroom and the rest is living space. The family room is open to the kitchen and a huge eating area with great sound vistas and a deck right off this space. The home will effortlessly handle 12 people. We newly added a 4/5 person hot tub. The family room has a fireplace for colder weather. One guest commented "the home was definitely pretty. The rooms were cavernous and well lit. It comfortably accommodated my family of 10+."
This Sound View home looks straight at Morehead City. According to one guest, "we had everything we needed for making meals." Wake up in the Master bedroom and look right out into the sound--great way to start your day. You won't want to leave.. Walking to Beach, Shopping, eateries & Bars. Our community is called The Cottages at Bay Ridge and located between Atlantic Stations Shopping Center and the Atlantic Beach Post Office, our coastal community offers all the amenities and privacy that waterfront living deserves! According to a guest, "great home in a great neighborhood." We are a sound front community with great access to fishing, crabbing, kayaking and bird watching. We have a impressive gradual entry pool. This is a fabulous conveniences with elevated viewing area and plenty of shade for when it gets too hot in the sun. There is a half mile elevated wooden boardwalk which leads to the covered gazebo on our private island in the sound. This is great for picnics and fishing and watching the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Many guests commented that the host was effortlessly accessible, accommodating and striking! I think anyone would agree when renting you want fast answers and we will give you that! And one final comment from a renter--"beyond all expectations!"

Strategies to get the best vacation property experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Summertime is high season in the Morehead City area. Booking a rental in the Spring or Fall is an excellent way to save on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• The sooner you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are booked early. Reserving your vacation rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Property managers sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Often, management companies supply Morehead City area visitors guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Morehead City visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your rental search:

• Begin by selecting your vacation dates and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. On the Sound 6BR 4.5BA home! Great for large families, 2 living spaces. Hot tub! has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Morehead City rental home search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available online. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before reserving the rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Have a wonderful stay:

• Get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property. Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Record any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are useful if a dispute is filed.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers bothering your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often 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 fishing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, 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 a note as part of your comments.
