Staying at the Greenfield Gathering Place is a walk in the park- literally! A great place for families and get togethers, this cute and beautiful 3 BR 2 bath home is located right next to Greenfield Lake park. Clean modern design, comfortable beds, a outfitted eat-in kitchen, furnished deck and privacy fenced backyard, and convenient location will provide you a great place to relax after all the fun.

Totally modernized with new floor, paint, and fixtures. The modern decor has a clean and uncluttered design. The living room has a cozy couch and a big intelligent TV if you’re looking for some relaxation. The chef’s kitchen has a great 5 burner gas stove, granite countertops, big refrigerator, open face cabinets, plenty of cookware, and dinner service for 8. The kitchen bar seats 4 and opens up into the dining room which seats 6. Each bedroom has a queen size bed with a memory foam hybrid bed and protector. The master bedroom has a full bath and a walk-in closet. Washer/dryer and wifi are included.

The real star of the show is that when you open the back door, walk onto the furnished deck, and then through landscaped backyard on the brick path and open the back gate: you’re in Greenfield Lake Park! You can go around the lake on the 5 mile long walking and cycling path, rent a reasonably priced kayak or paddleboat and cruise past the cypress trees in the lake, take the kids to the swing set and playground, appreciate a picnic, or even bring your deck and hit the skatepark! All that is in walking distance to the home, which is located right on Greenfield lake park. I lived here for a number of years and spent countless hours playing with my daughter in the park, running around and boating in the lake. This is a elegant park with terrific foliage and tons of wildlife.

You'll have the whole home to yourself! You'll receive access codes for the front door. The Garage is not available to park in or use. We use it for storage, it is locked. There is also on locked closet in the home which is used by the cleaners.

Tips for getting the best vacation rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in the Cape Fear area area. To get the best value, try shifting your family's Cape Fear area trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warmer temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines have offers and deals for local tours and attractions.

Finding the best rental in Wilmington:

• Select a group leader, choose your dates, and select a budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family needs. Greenfield Gathering Place. has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, email or call the property management company before booking the rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what is best for your vacation family.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or costs may be applied to your contract.
• If there's a specific Cape Fear area destination you long to visit, search for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

Know before you go:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To make certain damages aren't linked to your stay, make a record of any problem areas during arrival. Contact the rental manager right away to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be respectful. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• At departure, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to compel future reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
