About this Property

• Sleeps 10
• 4 Bedrooms
• 3 Bathrooms
• Private vacation home

Welcome to the Twin Tides II getaway. One of two of our unique side-by-side properties on the ICWW with a private pier and dock- with a slip available to our avid boaters. 180 vistas of the ICWW and Atlantic Ocean can be seen from double decker porches. Minutes away from Carolina Beach, the NC Fort Fisher Aquarium, the NC Battleship, golf courses or downtown Wilmington. This home spared no expense to really make it a getaway to visit time and time again. You will appreciate this peninsula property that sits on the edge of your own private heaven.

Vistas of pristine non-developed Masonboro Island can be seen from nearly every room of the home and the gorgeous wrap around porch. Savor your own private beach by kayak and make a day out of visiting Masonboro Island. Appreciate the pier and dock to play, swim, fish, or just relax if water sports aren’t your thing. Pier is shared with neighboring sister property.

Home features a master upstairs and downstairs. It also features a laundry room upstairs and downstairs making life easier while on vacation. While you have vistas of the intracoastal waterway from the front of the home, savor back yard vistas of the marsh and all she has to offer. This property is on the very end of a peninsula which accepts these rare vistas. Few properties can have the both of best worlds- and we’re one of them!

There is also a sandbar that appears at low-tide that kids appreciate. This is great for kids to catch a hermit crab or go clamming and experience some of the coastal lifestyle.

We have board games and toys and even a pack-n-play to try to accommodate all families.

Book our sister home, Twin Tides I, next door for a family reunion where you can expect the same great vistas and accommodations.

House has newly gotten more updating and some newer furnishings has been added, but you can expect the same great quality. You will adore this peninsula paradise!!!!

Tips to get the best Cape Fear area vacation home experience:

Get the most from your budget:

• Summertime is high season in the Cape Fear area area. To book the largest rental home for your budget, we recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area travel guides which will include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Filter your search:

• Select a group lead, select your vacation dates, and select a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Twin Tides II has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available online. Otherwise, email or call the property owner before booking the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what is right for your family.
• 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 desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Request details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, hosts charge additional pet fees.

More considerations:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Document any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if damages are assessed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents a lot of problems.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible source for finding the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all personal items on check-out day. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a fantastic stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix 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 comments.
