'Ocean Beach' resides at 21 Silversides Trail directly across the street from the beach on a cul-de-sac. WHAT A VIEW! We are midway down the South Beach, near the Maritime Market, fire station, boutique stores and nearly exactly between The Bald Head Island Club and The Shoals Club.

Our new home got a thorough going-over and is redecorated, repainted, and rebranded in the owners style. Our opulent new linens is sure to please everybody. There are two master bedrooms, all four bedrooms have king beds with a twin in the upstairs master. Each bedroom has new 32' flat screen TVs.

Please remember to make reservations with the Bald Head Island Ferry to arrive and depart. Your ferry ticket also provides you with tram service but is not automatically added to tickets. Tram reservations require a distinct booking from the ferry to 21 Silversides Trail. Arrival may not be before 4 PM and Departure must be by 10 AM on the day of Departure.

Guests wishing optional Temporary Guest Memberships at The Bald Head Island Club and or The Shoals Club should contact them immediately upon booking our home. This is done by visiting their respective websites and following instructions for Guest Membership, there is an additional fee for each Club. The host has no responsibility in the Guest Membership quest other than assuring The Club(s) we are hosting a particular guest.

All linens and towels are supplied. We have wireless high speed internet service.

The view from the upper deck is just spectacular and accepts us to see from the Cape Fear River to Frying Pan Shoals. Dolphins are frequent visitors to 'our' beach and are conveniently seen from all 3 porches.

In the garage you will find a 4 passenger and a 6 passenger golf cart. You MUST be a licensed driver to operate the golf carts on Bald Head Island. The shaded protected area that is the entry to our home, also serves as a place to escape the sun in one of the hammock. There is a sandy play area under the home for those little ones who have grown tired of our sun drenched beaches and a hot outside shower to get rid of the sand.

The Maritime Market is rather striking considering they must bring everything to the Island on a barge. The selections are extremely good and the service is superb.

Tips to get the very best Cape Fear area rental home experience:

Sticking to your spending plan:

• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in Bald Head Island. Booking in the Spring or Fall is a good way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies often offer customers an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines have coupons for local accommodations and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a group lead, choose your dates, and select a spending budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Oceanfront \/Spectacular Views\/\"OCEAN BEACH \" has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking pages. If not, reach out to the host before reserving the vacation home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• If your family is traveling with pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's an individual Cape Fear area destination you simply love, search for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental

Considerations for your stay:

• Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would at home.
• Make a record of any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your peace. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to drive new bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will will be grateful for your experience find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
