Sound Front, Pet Friendly Home on Front Street in Beaufort, NC. Bed Configuration: 1K, 2Q, 2T.
There’s no better place to be when in Beaufort than on Front Street, the heart of the town with history, appeal and Taylor’s Creek running alongside. The pinks and golds of sunrises and sunsets, sailboats that blow by, and the ever-changing vista of cloudscape make this address a delight. With your own dock at your doorstep and two boat slips, it’s simple to cruise to Carrot Island and beyond. Head out to the Cape Lookout National Seashore for the day to admire the pristine, undeveloped beauty of the Southern Outer Banks, its unspoiled beaches ideal for shelling and waters ripe for fishing.
The home itself is a coastal haven with vistas that relax or revitalize —watch for wild horses across the waterway or follow the slow and painless drift of the creek spotted with dolphins.
The open floor plan flows for ease of movement and comfort. The living room, chef’s kitchen, and dining room are connected, making time spent together a breeze. Cook in a group, appreciate casual meals or coffee at the countertop bar or gather for more formal dinners in the dining room. If there’s an event in store —plan a event to celebrate during your stay — there’s plenty of room for all! With a primary bedroom boasting a king bed, a private bath, and three guest bedrooms too, the whole family and friends can join! The spiral staircase has fairy tale vibes and takes you to the tip top of the home to the observation deck. The scenery from this vantage point is impressive, and the feeling that goes along with it is magical! From this bird's eye view, you can see the ocean and even Cape Lookout Lighthouse on a clear day.
A day or evening walk or bicycle ride is the ideal way, as any local will tell you, to travel downtown for a drink, Beaufort brewed beer or any number of hotspots for fine dining. Follow the path of the sailboats mast lights speckled along the docks like fireflies, and you will find your way. Get ready to wave to the neighbors and passersby — Beaufort is modest-town living, southern charm and the best of the coastal lifestyle all in one!

Booking the best Beaufort vacation rental experience:

When to go & When to book:

• Summer months are high season in the Crystal Coast area. To find the best value, shift your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer excellent weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Crystal Coast vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local Crystal Coast area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines contain deals for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Make a plan and choose the right Crystal Coast rental:

• First, have your group agree to dates and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Sound Front Home with Dock in Downtown Beaufort, NC (Creek Watch) has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available online. Otherwise, contact the host before booking the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to determine which bed configuration is suitable for your vacation.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Additional considerations:

• We recommend storing the owner's information in your smartphone.
• Record any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute arises.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a great resource to find the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let crooks ruin your trip.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on good reviews to propel future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will be thankful you shared your review find their best rental home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
