The modern kitchen has all you need to make a fast snack or a gourmet meal. Savor your breakfast at the bar or gather there as the next meal is being prepared. The gas grille outside is ready to prepare your catch of the day. Three bedrooms with four comfortable beds will sleep up to six. In the two full bathrooms you will dry off with plenty of plush towels. There is a full-sized washer and dryer to wash off your trip to the beach.

Bring your fishing pole and choose from three piers, a chartered fishing trip or rent a boat and bring home your newly caught dinner. Sunset boat tours, self-guided walking tours or a ghost tour are fashionable outings. In an area steeped in history, visit the Maritime Museum, Ft. Anderson/Brunswick Town, the USS NC Battleship or take a ferry ride by car to the Fort Fisher Visitors Center and grounds and the Aquarium. Perhaps you choose to ride the passenger ferry to Bald Head Island for a day of dining and touring by golf cart or bicycle.

This bungalow is conveniently located with public access to tennis courts, parks with walking trails, yoga studios, exercise classes, kid’s playgrounds, skateboard parks and even a splash pad. Shelling, swimming, fishing, crabbing or touring the Oak Island lighthouse are among beach activities on close by Oak Island & Caswell Beach. Rent a boat and cruise the Intracoastal waterway keeping an eye out for the playful dolphins. If bicycles or kayaks are more your style, they are available locally to rent for a fun day.

Booking the best vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer is high season in the Cape Fear area area. To book the best rental home for your budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll benefit from lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite Cape Fear area restaurants and activities.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitor guide magazines which include special deals, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to pick the perfect vacation home in the Cape Fear area area:

• Start by choosing your potential vacation weeks and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Pet Friendly Long-Term Rental - 25 Day Min. - Fenced Backyard - Grill has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available online. Otherwise, call the property manager before booking your home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish what configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• Looking for specific amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property manager about pet restrictions before booking.

During your stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Document any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents quite a few concerns.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
• Just before checking out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you didn't leave anything behind. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address 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.
