Twin Tides Intracoastal waterway cottage w\/views of the ocean private dock &more - Vacation rental home in Wilmington, NC

About this Property

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

Welcome to the Twin Tides 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 (upon request and review assuming un-rented and for an additional fee). This is not a duplex, this listing is for the entire home- we just happen to own the home next door also!

Looking for a family reunion? Book our Twin Tides Blue private home also. Vistas of the Atlantic Ocean can be seen from our freshly remodeled property. 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 adore this coastal bungalow that looks like it came out of a novel.

Vistas of pristine non-developed Masonboro Island can be seen from the King and Queens private balcony or the semi wrap around porch. Appreciate your own private beach by kayak and make a day out of visiting Masonboro Island. Savor the pier and dock to play, paddle board, swim, fish, or just relax if water sports aren’t your thing. We offer kayaks and paddle boards to make life a little easier.

A chefs dream kitchen featuring all sub-zero and wolf appliances, granite and wood floor throughout the home, and a true view from every room- including from the brand new air tub in the King and Queens bathroom. 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 a peninsula which accepts these rare vistas. Few properties can have the both of best worlds- and we’re one of them!

Extensive yard for your fur friends to get some exercise or go for a swim and a playground for your little ones. There is also a sandbar that appears at low-tide that kids (and our dog kids) appreciate. This is great for kids to catch a hermit crab or go clamming and experience some of the coastal lifestyle.

Outdoor bathroom and shower to effortlessly wash off!

4 separate bedroom home:
Room 1: King Bed
Room 2: King Bed
Room 3: Queen Bed
Room 4: Two Twin Beds

The two rooms suited for kids share a enormous Jack and Jill style tower-room: featuring, games, toys, and more to keep your little ones busy while getting a birds-eye view.

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

House has freshly gotten more updating and newer furnishings since these photos were taken, we can't wait for you to see our getaway!

Getting the best Wilmington vacation home experience:

Get the most from your spending budget:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Southport area. Booking your Southport vacation home in Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitor guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning, selecting, and booking the rightvacation home:

• First, have your group choose date ranges and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Twin Tides Intracoastal waterway cottage w\/views of the ocean private dock &more has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property manager before you reserve the rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your group is bringing pets, search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get details on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking.

More tips for your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few difficulties.
• Lock your rental property while you're away! Don't let thieves ruin your trip.
• Upon check-in, record any issues with the rental property and immediately contact the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to confirm you did not leave anything behind. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great ratings to stimulate new bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
