About this Property

  • Sleeps 9
  • 4 Bedrooms
  • 3 Bathrooms
  • Private vacation home

Located on a secluded salt marsh tidal creek that leads to the close by Intracoastal Waterway and Atlantic Ocean via kayak or canoe, Eagle Point on the Bay offers the privacy, beauty, and nature of a rural location, yet is close to urban, coastal, and academic amenities. Near the neighborhoods of Porters Neck and Figure Eight Island, the home is 3 miles to major grocery stores, coffee stores, eateries, shopping, and a seafood market. Striking beaches at the coastal community of Wrightsville Beach are only 15 mins. where there is also a branch of the New Hanover County Public Library, a health food store, and kayak/paddleboard/watersport units. The colonial city of Wilmington and its historic district and riverfront park is only 14 miles. Other area attractions include Airlie Gardens, the North Carolina Aquarium, the Boardwalk at Carolina Beach, historic Fort Fisher, and the Battleship North Carolina. There are many golf courses in the area.
Most of the neighbors are permanent residents. Bald Eagle Lane dead ends with only a handful of homes beyond ours, and so there is very little traffic, certainly no through traffic, making it ideal for bicycling and walking. From our front porch and street view between the single row of waterfront homes to the Intercoastal Waterway and the vast salt marsh across which sits the oceanfront private barrier island of Figure Eight Island (gated community). The view from the back of the home is across the tidal creek to the other shore lined with century old live oaks and the private, exclusive golf course Eagle Point adding to the green and natural vistas.
Appreciate birdwatching for osprey, herons (great grey, white, green), pelicans, kingfishers, cardinals, and maybe catch a glimpse of the shy, brightly-colored painted bunting. From our private pier and dock we appreciate, fishing, crabbing, kayaking, and watching the sunset and tidal shifts. With the daily changing tide, every 24 hours the creek water level swings through a spectacular breathtaking high tide, at times nearly to pier level, through a "dead" low tide exposing areas of the creek bottom and its breeding ground for schools of leaping minnows and crabs. A channel running in front of the pier accepts for kayak launch most of the time to access the bay and beyond to the Intercoastal Waterway and salt marsh explorations. We have three sit-on-top kayaks available for your use: a two-person kayak; a one-person kayak; and a one-person fishing kayak. Walking or swimming in the creek is not allowed due to sharp oyster shells and unstable mud creek bottom. For information about tide rise and fall (water depth) consult local tide charts. The creek may not be navigable at the lowest tide.
The home has two bedrooms and full bath on the ground level, two bedrooms and full bath on the second level, and additional half-bath on ground level. Two of the bedrooms have a T.V., and the T.V.s with their Roku boxes can be moved to a different bedroom as needed. Two of the common areas have a TV. The light and airy sunroom is lined with huge windows overlooking the salt marsh and tidal creek. Also on the ground level is a private den, family room, kitchen with connected dining area overlooking the salt marsh creek. Surrounding the home are native plants including live oak tree, cherry blossom, and dogwood trees providing ample shade, as well as azalea and holly berry shrubs, palmetto trees, and lawn areas. Detached from the home is a wooden shaded gazebo with a porch swing with a view of the waterfront, a gorgeous spot during summer rain showers. Other outside spaces include a sizable deck off the sunroom, a modest deck off the kitchen/dining with a close by rope hammock, and a modest front porch.
In addition to all the basic furnishings, equipment, and supplies, please feel complimentary to use any of our books, cards, games, puzzles, yoga mat, bicycles (4) and two kayaks. Lifejackets are located in the garage and must be worn at all times when using the kayak. Kids must be accompanied by adults on the kayaks. Parties and events are not allowed.

How to find the best Wilmington rental experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

  • June, July, and August are high season in Wilmington. To get the most suitable rental within your budget, we highly recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Southport attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, 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 near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
  • Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. 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 manager or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
  • Property managers usually offer renters 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 trip time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
  • Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guides have money saving offers on local tours and attractions.

How to choose and book the right Southport rental:

  • First and foremost, have your group agree to dates and a maximum budget.
  • Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Waterfront house. Pier, kayak, fishing, privacy, nature. Near beaches, boating. has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
  • Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible online. If they are not listed, email or call the property owner before you reserve your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what configuration is best for your trip.
  • Visiting for a single attraction or event? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
  • Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental
  • Remember to include your furry companions! Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Pet fees or could be applied to your contract.

Know before you go:

  • Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
  • At Check-in, note any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
  • Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
  • Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors disrupting your peaceful home life. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
  • Lock your rental property while you are away! Don't let burglars spoil your holiday.
  • Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all of your things. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Record a video to document the condition of the property.
  • After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on great feedback to drive more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
