This roomy multi-level 1800 square foot home is just 75 yards from the beach. You will be astounded by the ocean vistas from nearly every window. Vistas from the decks are spectacular. Privacy of the protected sand dunes to the west makes this end-unit beach home a rare find.

Open concept kitchen, dining, and living room are on the upper level. There are ocean vistas from every angle. Living room sliding door opens to a enormous upper deck. Also on the top level is a game room for the kids, laundry room and full bathroom with a tub. The living and game rooms each have flat screen HD TVs with Roku and WIFI supplied.

There are three bedrooms and two full baths on the lower level. Each bedroom has a TV with Roku. The master bedroom has ocean vistas, an en suite cavernous bathroom with shower and soaker tub, and a sliding door walkout to sizable covered deck.

There is a unique courtyard just off of the decks with grass and palm trees, providing shady areas for relaxation and play. Multiple-car covered parking is under the unit, as well as a private hot water outside shower. There is also a covered picnic area with a gas grille for your use.

The beach can be accessed just across the shady courtyard ... no need to walk along the road. A beach-side playground with bathrooms and covered gazebo are steps from the ocean.

This unit is 1.5 miles east from the Morehead City bridge, so you can ride your bicycle or jog to the local stores and eateries. It is an painless walk along the beach to the Oceana pier to the west and Fort Macon State Park to the east. The new Atlantic Beach Skate Park and Mini-Golf complex is only a 6 min. drive (across from the Food Lion grocery store).

Strategies to get the best Morehead City rental home experience:

Sticking to your spending plan:

• Summer time is high season in the Morehead City area. Reserve your Morehead City rental in Fall or Spring months to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Look for your local Morehead City visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides have deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Planning and choosing the perfect Morehead City rental:

• First and foremost, have your family choose dates and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Spectacular Oceanfront Views, Shady Oasis at Your Backdoor has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is normally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the host before you book the property. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property manager about pet restrictions before booking.

More considerations:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• To make certain damages are not linked to your family's stay, make note of any problem areas during arrival. Contact the host right away to document any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental property while you're gone! Don't let thieves ruin your trip.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
