Welcome to your Home Away From Home on Carolina Beach!

First and foremost, one of our greatest priorities is that our home is exceptionally clean upon your arrival. Rest assured that we have partnered with an extremely highly regarded cleaning crew who has just as high of standards as we do.

We have also graciously supplied the kitchen with a enormous variety of cookware, accepting your group of up to 10 to make our home feel like yours during your stay.

The beach access can be seen from the front yard, just a short 5 min. walk straight down the road and onto the sand.

Our home has 5 bedrooms and 2 full baths. On the first floor there is 1 bedroom with a queen bed and 1 full bathroom with a shower. On the second floor there are 3 bedrooms with a king bed, 1 bedroom with two twin beds (twin trundle bed), and 1 full bathroom with a tub/shower. The bedroom with the twin trundle bed is part of a 3 room suite (the third room being a living room), along with one of the bedrooms with a king bed. These two bedrooms are ideal for a family with kids, or a group of family or friends who do not mind the shared space. There is a living room upstairs which comes in handy when members of the group want to spread out and relax away from the main floor's open concept living space. After all, you are on vacation!

Our home has two sizable front porches -- on the first and second floor. We also have a back deck on the first floor off of the kitchen where we do our grilling! This property is set back off the road, canopied by trees, and is our favorite place to appreciate the outdoors -- in the shade, with a nice sea breeze.

So you may feel more prepared and aware of what we provide to you -- please read below:

Linens:
- Linens for 1 queen bed, 3 king beds and 2 twin beds (1 twin bed will be made up, and a second set of twin sheets will be left in the closet of the twin room for the trundle bed).
- Each bed receives 4 pillows (except the twin beds receives 2).
- Each bedroom will have an additional blanket in the closet.

Towels:
- 10 Bath Towels
- 10 Wash Cloths
- 2 dish towels in the kitchen
- 4 total hand towels — 2 per bath
- 2 total floor towels/bath mats — 1 per bath.

Cleaning Supplies:
- 3 laundry detergent pods
- 2 rolls of paper towels
- 1 new sponge
- 6 dishwasher detergent pods (save 1 for the morning of check-out)
- 3 garbage bags, plus a new one in the can
- 2 rolls of toilet paper per bath (4 total rolls)

As we mentioned, we have extremely high standards of cleanliness, and you are on vacation, so we plan to ask very little of you during your stay, but we do have a short list of items we ask for your cooperation on:

- If you will be staying with us on Sunday nighttime, please roll our trash and recycling bins to the curb on Sunday Nighttime. We greatly thank you!!
- Check out is at 10 am and your keyless entry code will expire then.
The housekeepers will be arriving to prepare the home for our next guests.
* If you are still at the property after check-out time, you will be charged a minimum $45 fee, or greater, depending on the delay you cause.
- The home should be left relatively clean. If excessive cleaning is required to prepare for our next guests, you will be charged an additional cleaning fee.
- Please gather all used sheets/pillow cases, kitchen dish towels, bath towels, hand towels and bathmats and place them in the laundry room.
* Please do not remove duvet covers, pillow shams or bed pads unless soiled.
- Please place all dishes in the dishwasher and start a load when you leave. If any items don’t fit, please hand wash, dry and return to cabinets. If dirty dishes are left, this significantly delays our cleaning crew and you will be charged a $45 fee.
- Please remove all personal food items from the refrigerator/freezer and cupboards upon your departure.
- Please place all trash and recyclables in the bins outside when you leave.

We hope you and your group make memories to last a lifetime!

Tricks and tips to get the perfect Carolina Beach rental home experience:

Sticking to your spending budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Southport area. Reserve your Southport rental home in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Property management companies sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, 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, management companies supply Southport area visitor guides which include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to select the perfect vacation rental:

• To start, have your family agree to date ranges and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Sleeps 10 in the heart of Carolina Beach! Walk to Beach! has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible on booking websites. If not, call the property owner before booking the property. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or could be applied to your agreement.
• If there's an individual Southport attraction you love, search for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Additional considerations:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of difficulties.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Document any damages to the property at check in, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Re-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at departure. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
