Our home is oceanfront in Carolina Beach, North Carolina. It is an older style bungalow constructed in the 1940's and we added a third floor and refreshed in 2003. Complete remodel in spring 2020.

There are great vistas with charming porches and decks overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. In the Spring of 2008, the ground floor was added to the rental making it a full home rental. Full kitchen was updated on middle floor in 2011 with dishwasher and garbage disposal. All new appliances in 2020. Two master suites with mini refrigerator and coffee/tea bar in one. Bathrooms in the old part of the bungalow were remodeled with new tile showers in 2016.

The ground floor does have a separate entrance into a game room with a pool table. We newly added a spiral staircase leading to the middle floor. This floor has one queen bedroom and full bath. A theater room is located on the ground floor with a big screen intelligent TV, popcorn machine and refrigerator. A new front loading washer and dryer were added to this floor in 2020. There is a queen air bed that can be used in the theater room to sleep 2 kids.

The middle floor has a full kitchen and family room with a freshly modernized open floor plan, one queen bedroom, and one full bathroom. The living area has a intelligent tv and a game/puzzle table and sectional couch. The dining area has a sizable table with seating for 8-10., and additional bar seating for two. The kitchen is entirely supplied and offers a enormous pantry area and adequate workspace. There is a phenomenal open porch with rockers and a table/chairs for eating or playing games. There are two outdoor showers; an open shower on the walkway from the beach to rinse off sand, and a closed hot and cold shower to savor your daily shower.

The top floor has two huge oceanfront King master suites with private baths. Each bedroom opens onto the top porch with a porch swing and loungers. You DO have to walk through one of the bedrooms to get to the interior stairs. There are exterior stairs off the porch as well.

The home will sleep 8 people in beds and two more on an air bed.

This home is located on the north end of Carolina Beach, a quieter and more calming part of the beach. The Boardwalk, fishing pier and charter boats are all within walking distance. Appreciate the many eateries, kid's activities, and just strolling on the beach! Bicycle, chair, umbrella and boat units are all within one mile of the home.

Finding the best Cape Fear area vacation home experience:

When to go & When to reserve a rental home:

• Summer is high season in the Cape Fear area area. Booking your Cape Fear area vacation home in Fall or Spring is a good way to save money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Booking your vacation property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Many management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitor guides which include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Choose a group leader, select your vacation week, and select a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Oceanfront House-Sleeps 8-10 Rec Room and Theater Room has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible online. Otherwise, reach out to the host before reserving the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish what is optimal for your family.
• If there's an individual Cape Fear area destination you long to visit, look for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others do not. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.

Some things to know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Add a note with the directions to your phone, and take a printed copy.
• To make sure damages aren't attributed to your visit, make note of any problem areas upon your arrival. Get in touch with the host right away to record your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually an excellent resource to find the best local beaches.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Just prior to departing, complete a final walk-through to make sure you haven't leave anything behind. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property one final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
