Blount Cottage on Ocean Ridge in Atlantic Beach, NC. Bed Configurations: 2K, 4D, 3T.
Atlantic Beach has a distinct appeal with a modest-town pace and painless-going spirit to match. With simple access to flawless and peaceful beaches and sweet southern appeal, you will adore this town's vibe and throwback feel. Ocean Ridge can be found located on the shores of Atlantic Beach like a prize-worthy Easter Egg waiting to be discovered. This spot has maintained an element of exclusivity — year after year, generation after generation, the same folks return to “the beach” on their holidays.

The community maintains its elite status with classic homes like this one located at Blount Cottage. Located beachfront, the home reflects a coastal style from the start with an exterior that is all windows and decks and driftwood-grey colored shakes. The interior is an absolute delight, with wood paneling transporting you to another time. The wood tones bring warmth, depth, coziness and character, which is a fabulous welcome. The stark contrast of the modern, white kitchen is fresh and inviting, as is the countertop bar with seating for four.
When staying at Blount Cottage, you will have all the benefits of “the beach” right outside your door. Two roomy decks, one upstairs and one down, with vistas of the sand and the skyline — this is the ideal place for sipping coffee or drinks and watching the sunrise and fall over the sea. Plan a cookout with a grille at the ready, or head out for any number of dining (and shopping, boating and cafe) options close by.
At this home, there are two bedrooms with king beds and two additional bedrooms, too! One of those features two twin beds and a double, and the other, one twin and one double bed. This means there is plenty of space to all pile in— your close friends, your family —whoever your heart desires! Invite them to join you on your holiday and revel in the simple joys of the Crystal Coast lifestyle.

Vacation rental home tips:

When to visit & When to book:

• To book the best rental within budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your rental property six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your vacation rental.
• Hosts sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Look for your local New Bern visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines have deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation week, and select a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Blount Cottage- Oceanfront, Pet Friendly Home in Atlantic Beach, NC has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern vacation rental search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible online. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before reserving the rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
• If your family is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request information on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• During check-in, record any damages to the property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents lots of difficulties.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic resource to find the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a excellent vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
