The ideal spot for your Atlantic Beach hideaway! This one-level, four-bedroom home is roughly 1/3 of a mile from beach access and 1/4 mile to the sound. A public fishing pier and boat launch on the sound is just one street over. You'll be three miles west of the circle at Atlantic Beach and three miles east of the North Carolina Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores and Theodore Roosevelt Natural Area. Fort Macon State Park is within a five-mile drive. You can also walk up the street to multiple bars, stores, and eateries, including a beach/tiki bar.

Outside, there is a huge covered side porch with a fan, Blackstone grille, and propane fire table; a patio under the deck with a porch swing and rockers; and an elevated sundeck with sound vistas, where you can hear the ocean waves crashing and watch the sunset. There is also a putting green out front to brush up on your game between beach visits.

If you are visiting with kids or teens, this setup is ideal! The double bunk room is a fun and comfortable space. Living room plus adjacent sunroom with shuffleboard, puzzles, and games offering the option to all hang out together or have your own private space. (The fireplace is not operational.) Cozy beds, TVs in each bedroom, and bright-beachy decor make this the ideal calming vacation spot.

The eat-in kitchen is outfitted with all the essentials, including an air fryer. The Blackstone grille on the covered side porch is a fun touch for those who like to prepare.

Our top Rental home booking tips and tricks:

Sticking to your spending budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To get the best value, change your trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines have offers and deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

How to select the perfect rental:

• First and foremost, have your group commit to vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Sweet, walkable beach cottage with elevated sundeck, patio & shuffleboard has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available online. If they are not listed, email the property management company before you book the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or costs applied to your agreement.
• Looking for special amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

More considerations:

• Put the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• Note any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• When it's time to leave, complete a walk-through to confirm you did not forget anything. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and look for any damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on great reviews to compel new reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
