This traditional five-bedroom, four-bath home beckons you to relax on its covered rocking chair front porch and breathe in salty breezes or nap in the swaying hammock. Inside you'll find open living spaces boasting hardwoods and loads of light from the skylights above the two-story ceiling. The comfortable gathering area, anchored by a decorative fireplace, is just across from the dining space. Appreciate your meals-with-a-water-view or step out onto the attached screen porch for a snack or coffee. The adjacent kitchen has a gorgeous wooden breakfast bar that seats four, loads of granite counter space and stainless appliances. It is backed by a cavernous pantry/laundry room. If alfresco dining is your enjoyment, scoot out the home's French doors onto the covered porch and step down to an oversize dining deck-the ideal spot to savor a good meal AND Mother Nature.

This level also homes an ocean-view Queen with private front porch access and a bunk room with three twins. These share a granite-tiled bath with a glassed bench shower.

Upstairs-in another bright, airy space accented by skylights-is a sitting area with a daybed. Unwind here or just outside on the sundeck and soak up rays as well as the spectacular seascape. This floor features two King Owner suites. The first showcases ocean vistas and provides private deck access, a vaulted ceiling, a huge walk-in closet and a alluring ensuite. The second also offers private ocean deck access along with a sitting area, constructed-ins, a walk-in closet and a generous ensuite. Above the two-cart garage is the crofter. This very private space provides yet another suite with two Twins, sitting area and full bath.

Additional amenities include use of two golf carts, an outdoor shower and a central location convenient to the clubs, stores and the Conservancy and WWP's 24/7 Property Manager Assistance Line-which means you can reach needed help even after hours or on weekends.

Our top Cape Fear area rental home tips:

Getting the most from your budget:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in the Cape Fear area area. Booking your vacation rental in Fall or Spring months is our best tip for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable 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 on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer promotional rates for veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Many property management companies supply Cape Fear area area travel guide magazines which will include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to pick the perfect rental home:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your dates, and select a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Salty Dog exudes relaxed beach vibes and delights with awesome ocean vistas. has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property manager before booking your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what bed configuration is right for your trip.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or costs could be applied to your invoice.
• If there's a specific Cape Fear area destination you long to visit, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. .

More considerations for your visit:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are away! Don't let crooks ruin your trip.
• At Check-in, note any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are often a terrific resource to find the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Just before checking out, take a final walk-through to make sure you haven't leave anything behind. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and scan for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a terrific stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
