We have put a lot of appreciate into this home to make sure it is a place to bring friends, family and our guests to the beach. Our hope is that you will savor the slow life, relax and reconnect. Maybe catch a fish or more importantly, a nice sun tan.

The screened in back porch is our favorite place to wake up with a cup of coffee or watch the sunset with a beverage in hand. The coastal wildlife seems to come alive in the morning and right before sunset.

The kitchen comes completely outfitted with all the essentials for you to prepare a meal with family and friends. Make sure to save at least one nighttime to appreciate one of our favorite local eateries because the food in CB is GOOD and the drinks are even better. We made sure to stock sunscreen, beach towels and beach chairs to help you relax at the beach.

Both bathrooms are supplied with the best smelling body wash and soft bath towels. Each bedroom has top of the line memory foam beds and fresh white linens.

In the cooler months, our living room is our ideal place to spend time with friends or by yourself curled up on the couches with your favorite book or just watch the boats pass by. The modular couch pulls out to a queen bed with a memory foam bed.

We do have neighbors that also rent their space and we ask that you keep noise to a minimum. The riverfront is a peaceful place and we ask that everybody be respectful. If you're looking to have a event - this is not the home.

If you like adventure and exploration, you NEED to walk, jog or bicycle the Snows Cut Trail to Carolina Beach State Park. With a marina providing access to some of North Carolina's best fishing spots, a secluded camping area beneath towering trees, and miles of hiking trails that traverse a variety of distinct habitats—not to mention the presence of the Venus flytrap, one of the world's most unique carnivorous plants—it's no wonder Carolina Beach State Park is a trendy coastal attraction.

Strategies for getting the perfect Cape Fear area vacation property experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in the Cape Fear area area. To find the largest vacation home within your budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular Cape Fear area attractions. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation 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 near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Some owners offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers frequently offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines contain deals for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Finding the perfect rental in Carolina Beach:

• Start by selecting vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Cozy riverfront hangout with gorgeous waterfront sunset views has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is often available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the host before reserving your home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Remember to include your furry companions! 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 rental agreement! Additional fees or may be applied to your contract.
• Does your group require special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.

Considerations for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent many difficulties.
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Document any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all belongings. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a great vacation? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
