Island Treehouse - Vacation rental home in Emerald Isle, NC

About this Property

• Sleeps 2
• 1 Bedrooms
• 2 Bathrooms
• Private vacation home

Years ago, when I was looking for a home on the island I came across this property. When I walked up the front steps for the first time, I entered into a relaxing little wonderland. Set up high on a sand dune surrounded by trees, this property is the ideal calming hideaway. Set smack dab in the middle of town, it is walking/cycling distance to nearly everything in Emerald Isle. It is 1 block from the sound and about 7 blocks to the ocean.

How to get the best vacation property experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation rental 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• To get the best value, try shifting your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer excellent temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitor guides which include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning and picking a perfectrental:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation week, and select a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Island Treehouse has 1 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly accessible online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before you book the property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Request details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single event? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental

More considerations for your visit:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Document any damages to the property at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on great ratings to propel future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
