HELLO SUMMER! My wife and I invite you to view our home and hopefully make it your summer stay. Our home is in amazing location, set back from the street and surrounded by mature trees giving a private feel, but only a short walk to the beach. The land mass here is not very wide, only 5 rows of homes from the beach to the main road and 1 row to the sound. That means there is no rush to get to the beach, sleep in; plenty time to find a great spot. The beach is huge and most days the water has a glistening emerald glow. Also a new beach access was constructed in 2017 and located close to the home. Our home features a cavernous and open reverse floor plan with ceilings vaulted eleven feet. New for this year is all three bathrooms have been upgraded with vanities, counter tops, water fixtures, led lighting and toilets. The master bath also has a new enlarged shower. The living room has new reclining couches and the 1st floor entry has all new led lighting fixtures. Lastly the top deck is now finished with composite railing and decking.The top deck is now bare feet freindly and just a great spot to hang out The kitchen is roomy and completely supplied with everything needed to whip up a great meal, while watching the waves. There is seating for six at the kitchen peninsula. The main feature of the dining area is a handmade reclaimed wood table, that seats six comfortably and still have a nice view of the ocean.. After dinner hit the couches and watch the 55 inch TV. All the TV’s have HD cable and Wi-Fi is throughout the home. Better yet, grab a drink and step out onto the deck and just relax, watch the waves and listen to that ocean. Also on this level are a half bath and a sizable pantry.The 3 bedrooms are located on the first floor. We have a master with a king size bed, memory foam bed, attached bath, sizable closet and a wall mounted 40 inch flat screen TV . This room has access to the first floor deck. Second bedroom features a queen size bed ,memory foam bed, huge closet and a wall mounted 32 inch flat screen TV. This room also has access to the first floor deck. The third bedroom has 2 twin beds, a modest closet and a wall mounted 32 inch flat screen TV. All the bedrooms feature ceiling fans. The main bathroom is also on this level and has a tub/shower combo. The main entry is on the ground level. As you enter the home you come into a laundry area/catch all, great place to drop all the beach gear. One flight up and you're on the bedroom level. Outside we have a enormous private outdoor shower with hot and cold water and a nice seating area under the home. Also, we have a large picnic table and a gas grille, great for a fast outdoor lunch. Anyone making a trip to the beach knows how valuable that packing space in the car is, so we have beach chairs and umbrellas for you to use. We have plenty of parking and all the exterior lighting is dusk to dawn, making it safer coming and going at nighttime. We are located roughly 3 miles from the center of town, close enough to bicycle and discover. We are renting Sunday to Sunday. This year we added towels and linens into the booking fee, if you don't need them, let us know and they will be removed before you book. We try very hard to keep our place refreshed, clean and comfortable for our guest. Please read our reviews and feel complimentary to contact Stephanie with any questions. Thanks for looking and we hope to hear from you. John & Steph

Booking the best Emerald Isle vacation rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer time is high season in the Crystal Coast area. Booking a rental in Spring or Fall is a great way to save money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local Crystal Coast visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines have money saving offers on nearby shops and restaurants.

How to select the perfect rental in the Crystal Coast area:

• Choose vacation week and max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration you need. Location, charm, and convenience! Come stay and see for yourself! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property owner before booking the vacation property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is right for your trip.
• If there's a specific Crystal Coast beach you are enamored with, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some don't. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property management company about your furry family members before booking.

During your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Add a note with the instructions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your family's visit, note any problem areas during check in. Make contact with the host right away to document any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers disrupting your peaceful home. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let burglars spoil your holiday.
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on great feedback to stimulate new bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
