Guest access
The entire space inside and outside is available to our guests. We hope that everybody will get outside and appreciate the nature available whether on the back patio grilling or just sitting in the red swing or lounge chairs in the side yard. Also to our fisherman friends we offer a cleaning table in the back just for the “Catch of the Day”!
Other things to note
We also have a 50’ lot with waterway access down at the end of our road (about 1/4 mile) at the waterway directly across from Carolina Beach inlet that is very enchanting. Cannot drive on lot. Finest for walking, cycling or being dropped off! Sometimes very busy but great fishing and shallows for the kids. Shelly so shoes a must!

Wilmington vacation rental tips:

Get the most from your rental home budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in the Cape Fear area area. Booking in Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites frequently offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitors guides which include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose vacation week and budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Bridgeview Bunkhouse has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property management company before you reserve your rental. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You will need to determine what is suitable for your vacation family.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or costs could be applied to your contract.
• Looking for unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking

Additional considerations:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental. Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents many concerns.
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• Make a record of any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be very helpful if damages are assessed.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, ensure that you take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on great reviews to propel future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
