This glorious, well-appointed private West End oceanfront home (3K, 2Q, 2T) has a hint of rustic with a boatload of magnificence! The handsome inverted floor plan offers unsurpassed vistas from five-bedroom, six-bath layout with a top-floor den (QSS) and sunroom overlooking the shining Atlantic. It's really the ideal choice for your family's best vacation ever.

The delightfully landscaped and gracious exterior living area is charmingly created with a private swimming pool and screened oceanside hot tub, an outdoor cabana with a wood-burning fireplace for cooler temperatures (firewood and matches are not supplied with the rental), as well as covered porches. Part of the beauty of the home being located near an inlet and beachfront, is the actual distance to the sand and surf are subject to change, as are the dune structures. High tides and forces of nature create magnificent, natural tidal pools to sun or play in.

The home provides a residential passenger elevator to make loading and unloading a breeze! No need to tote groceries and suitcases up the stairs. Please read and follow all posted rules. Note: The fireplace shown in the photos is not operable.

This pool may be heated from September - May for an additional $500 fee per week. Please note that under optimal conditions, the pool can be heated 10 degrees above the outside temperature/max. of 87°F. Please call our office for more details as for optimal use, this service should be scheduled in advance.

All bathrooms include one roll of toilet paper, trash bags, shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion, makeup wipes, and bar soap. Your beds are made with fresh linens and a lightweight blanket, so you can jump right into making memories rather than making beds! While we provide a lightweight blanket, we urge you to bring additional layers for your comfort. Please note that while top bunk beds, trundles, sleeper couches, futons, and daybeds will not be made, we will provide fresh linens for them.

As a gift to you, this home offers a $250 credit for you to select top-quality beach gear for your vacation stay.

Getting the best vacation home experience:

Finding your perfect rental:

• To find the largest rental home within your budget, we highly recommend booking in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Cape Fear area restaurants, beaches, and activities.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites usually offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides have money saving offers on nearby shops and restaurants.

Planning, picking, and booking the right Cape Fear area rental:

• First, have your group commit to dates and a budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Hobbs Realty - \"Beach to Beech\" offers unsurpassed views of the sparkling Atlantic ocean has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available online. If not, reach out to the host before you reserve the vacation home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• If there's a specific Cape Fear area beach you crave, search for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you will need a pet-friendly property. Request information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Know before you go:

• Store the host's information in your smartphone.
• To make certain damages aren't linked to your family's visit, record any problem areas during check in. Contact the property manager right away to relay any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a great vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
