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 savor 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, appreciate 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 exceptional 'Beach Retreat', so please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions, comments or concerns.

Emerald Isle vacation rental home tips:

When to book & When to go:

• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Book your vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Morehead City vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Morehead City visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have discounts for local tours and attractions.

How to choose and book the perfectrental:

• Start by choosing your a vacation week and a budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration you need. Almost Ocean Front, 2nd Row, Great Ocean Views, Easy Beach Access, Quiet Street has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available online. If you don't see them listed, email the property management company before you book the property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If there's a particular Morehead City beach you simply love, look for homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about your furry family members before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make sure damages are not linked to your family's visit, inspect for any problem areas when you arrive. Get in touch with the rental manager immediately to report any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of difficulties.
• Be respectful. Often times, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let thieves ruin your family vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a terrific time? Many rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
