About this Property

• Sleeps 12
• 5 Bedrooms
• 3 Bathrooms
• Cottage

This 2nd row beauty has it all! Great OCEAN VIEWS without the oceanfront rental prices (and it's CLEAN)! Beach access is painless and fast, right across the street. Over 2,000 square feet, on a peaceful, non-busy street with a view of the ocean or Bogue sound from every single window in the home! Make this your 2nd home for a week (or two) and you'll never want to leave.

We want your family & friends to have a great experience and forget all of their worries while making great memories that will last a lifetime. Sound too good to be true or too much like a Hallmark card? Well we aren't kidding!

Wake up every morning and walk directly out of your bedroom onto the deck and breathe in Emerald Isle's salty air. Hear the waves crashing on the beach. House has 4 bedrooms with two King beds and two Queen beds (all with deck/balcony access) plus a kids' loft/entertainment area on the 4th level with 4 twin beds. In the den you can even watch TV, look to your left and see the ocean... of course, that's just from the inside, wait until you step out onto the decks!

Beach access is literally steps away across the street with a wooden walkway leading directly to the surf. Families with young kids will appreciate this convenience by not having to walk far with all your beach supplies and stuff! You also have the convenience of our exhilarating outdoor shower with hot/cold water to wash off the beach sand and lotion.

Cook all of your favorite 'beach foods' in our entirely equipped kitchen while looking at the emerald blue ocean. Then dine and entertain inside with family & friends while appreciating the great ocean vistas from the enormous eating area, or have your meals outside on the upper deck where the view and sounds of the ocean enhance the experience.

Watch schools of dolphins in the morning swim by & flocks of pelicans dive in for a snack in the afternoon. If you need some shade, head down to the lower level deck & relax on one of our lounge or rocking chairs. Of course, the decks have great vistas, but nothing can beat hanging out on the beach & swimming in the ocean. After a long day, savor our outdoor shower (w/ hot & cold water) and indulge in some great local seafood at one of many eateries within mins. of the home. After the kids have gone to sleep, sneak back out on the deck and look at the moonlight shine over the water with a glass of your favorite drink. Get the best sleep of your life (as long as you put on plenty of sunscreen) and wake up ready to do it all over again!

I hope some of these words have captured just a modest picture of what it is like to vacation at Beach Retreat: East. We have posted tons of photos but nothing compares to actually being here. We really look forward to helping you and your family have an extraordinary 'Beach Retreat', so please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions, comments or concerns.

Our top Vacation rental home tips:

Getting the best value:

• Summer months are high season in the Morehead City area. Book your rental in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Morehead City vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Often, rental management companies supply Morehead City area visitors guide magazines which include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of 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.

Narrow your Search:

• Choose your dates and max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family needs. Almost Ocean Front, 2nd Row, Great Ocean Views, Easy Beach Access, Quiet Street has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Morehead City rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is usually available online. If not, contact the property management company before reserving the property. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you must book a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

More considerations:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• Document any issues with the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let thieves ruin your vacation.
• Double-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a great time? Most rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
