Get away from it all and relax in our roomy 4 bedroom/3 bath beach home in Emerald Isle!
This bright and inviting home is located in a cul-de-sac on the sound side of Emerald Isle, NC and only a 5-min. walk to the beach! With plenty of space on 3 floors, 2 decks and a shaded patio area you'll be on "Island time" before you know it!

The space:

This 3 level home has a living area, 2 bedrooms, a full bath and laundry room on the ground floor; the main floor has a handsome and cavernous kitchen, living area, bedroom, and a full bath. The top floor features a huge bedroom, full bath and sitting area as well as a modest balcony.

Guest access:

You'll have access to the entire home and there's also a dock out back on the canal great for setting off on kayaking or SUP adventures! Be mindful of the water levels at the dock, which rise and fall with the tide. At times, it is too low to put in crafts for paddling and always too shallow for a motorboat.

There's a intelligent TV on the lower level and in the top floor bedroom with WiFi so you'll be able to sign into your own streaming service apps! There are plenty of games and puzzles for rainy days as well as a selection of paperbacks to get lost in!

Important things to note:
-There is parking for a max. of 4 cars (2 on each side). Our home and driveways are on a hill, so please be sure to review the parking instructions. Unfortunately, we can not accommodate parking for boat trailers and the canal behind our home is too shallow for motorboats.

-Absolutely no family pets, events, or smoking allowed!

Strategies for getting the best New Bern rental experience:

When to reserve a New Bern rental & When to go:

• The earlier your group can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental home up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Booking in Spring or Fall is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers often offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitors guide magazines that include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to select the best vacation rental:

• Choose a group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Beautiful Sound Side View! Spacious Home- Easy walk to the Beach has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the property management company before reserving the vacation property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

During your stay:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let thieves ruin your vacation.
• At Check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great source for finding the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all belongings. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host isn't available, take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on good feedback to propel more reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best rental home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
