(3BR, 3 BA, 2Q, 2Tw, SLPs 6, 1 Golf Cart, Pet Friendly, Friday Turn in Peak Season, CHECK IN 3:30PM / CHECK OUT 9:30AM) If calming tableaus are what you seek, look no farther than Au Beau Marais! This very private, dog friendly Harbour Village charmer, located on a peaceful cul-de-sac, abuts Bald Head Creek, and astounds with spectacular marsh perspectives. As you step under the arbor, through the white picket-fenced yard, you’ll perceive gentle ocean breezes as you alight to the covered front porch and into the comfortable entry of this reverse floor plan.

To the left you’ll find a sunny corner suite with two Twins and a full bath (with tub) which also opens onto the hall. Beyond, a light-filled bayed Queen bedroom, with a sliding door, grants access to a waterside covered porch and sun deck. This is the ideal spot for dipping toes or communing with the Island’s natural inhabitants.

At the end of the hall, the Queen Owner’s Suite’s two walls of glass doors delight with panoramas of sun shining off the water of the Island’s elegant marshes. Grab an Adirondack just outside on the semi-covered deck and while away the hours. This suite also homes a huge Master Bath with his and her vanities, a water closet, a shower, and a sizable walk-in.

A laundry completes this level. At the top of the stairs, a roomy kitchen overlooks the sun-drenched vaulted living and dining areas which are surrounded by windows. A infant enormous sits in a bright bay just across from the chic dining space. Nearby, the generous living area, anchored by a slated fireplace, is very inviting but what steals the show are the halcyon Island prospects everywhere you look. Savor these inside or on this level’s bowed, semi-covered porch. It’s an superb place to watch the morning sunrise or relax with an afternoon treat…and it even renders glimpses all the way to Sunny Point! So appealingly located and appreciating proximity to the marina, stores, and eateries-as well as providing a four-passenger cart for guest use and including WWP's 24/7 Property Manager Assistance Line-which means you can reach needed help even after hours or on weekends, Au Beau Marais will assure you un Beau Moment (a good time) on your vacation!

The crofter is not part of the rental unit. An additional $300 nonrefundable pet fee is required for each guest dog.

Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect Bald Head Island vacation home experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• Summer time is high season in Bald Head Island. To get the largest vacation home for your budget, we highly recommend booking in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular Cape Fear area attractions. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property managers typically offer guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Often, management companies supply Cape Fear area area travel guides which include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting the best rental in the Cape Fear area area:

• Select dates and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Au Beau Marais: 3 BR, 3 BA House in Bald Head Island, Sleeps 6 has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often available on booking websites. If not, email or call the property manager before you reserve the property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what is optimal for your trip.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your smartphone.
• Document any damages to the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute arises.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected everything. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great ratings to propel new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
