Savor a few calming days, weeks, or more!

Our home is an 1,100 square foot residence located on the mainland in Shoreline Woods, a peaceful, peaceful neighborhood with great oak trees and a winding waterway that runs throughout the area. It is a great place to walk or bicycle ride, especially in the early mornings and evenings. We offer a comfortable two-bedroom, two-bath home, surrounded by trees and striking landscaping. The home is 1.8 miles from Sunset Beach.

The home is entirely outfitted with everything needed to feel at home. To keep costs to you down however, we do not have linen or cleaning services, so we request you leave the property ready for the next guest. The kitchen is completely supplied, and we do provide bath towels, beach towels and bed linens, but you must launder all prior to your departure. You may opt to bring your own linens as this saves time upon departure. Guests are asked to clean the home so it is ready for the next guest. This may not be appealing for folks wanting to stay for 2-3 nights as cleaning does take time!

This is a family owned second home that we would savor sharing with you! (We are not affiliated with any rental agency other than Vacation Rental By Owner.) This pretty brick home features gorgeous landscaping and natural garden areas, and is located on a peaceful corner lot with partial vistas of the intracoastal waterway! This home is in a great neighborhood location with a short drive to the Beach! Our 2-bedroom home sleeps four (2 couples, or family of 4) comfortably. (Please, no more than 4 human guests!)
(We block out one day between guests, and are continuing with the cleaning requirements we began when Covid-19 started.)

Sunset Beach is a modest, ocean-side town on the southernmost tip of NC, partially on the mainland and part on the barrier island. Until a few years ago, this island was accessible only by a one-lane barge bridge, but a causeway has now replaced this resulting in easier access. The old barge bridge is now a museum beneath the causeway.

If you are seeking a peaceful, calming place to visit, Sunset Beach is the spot, having one of North Carolina’s most handsome and well-preserved beaches! The barrier island is both a turtle sanctuary for the endangered loggerhead turtles, and Bird Island is a protected part of the North Carolina Coastal Reserve, including nearly 1,500 acres of marsh, intertidal flats and, of course, the Atlantic Ocean beach! Visit the Kindred Spirit Mailbox while you are there!

From the 40th Street boardwalk, it is a elegant 2-mile walk to the Little River Inlet in South Carolina. Whether walking, running or cycling, beach-goers may see many species of shoreline plant and animal life and seashells. And if you like seclusion, it is largely deserted during the winter months.

Accommodations include -- in the master bedroom, a bay window with a double (full-sized) bed, ceiling fan and private bath; the second bedroom has a queen-sized bed, ceiling fan, and access to the main bath which contains a washing machine and dryer. The living area has a new couch, adore seat, covered leather recliner, a dining table with 4 chairs, ceiling fan and vistas of intracoastal canal from the front windows and open porch off the living room. There is a flat-screen intelligent TV in the living area. (For those with modest kids, we do have a glass dining table and a glass coffee table.) We have cable TV and Wi-Fi. The kitchen has a skylight, and a modest bay window over the sink. In the fall through spring (outside temperature permitting), you can relax on the huge, screened-in porch, complete with couch, tables, chairs, light and ceiling fan. The porch has a vinyl window system, each window with 4 movable vinyl panels, accepting you to create your own indoor-outdoor ambiance! There is a single carport located away from the home that contains a grille. The garage has beach umbrellas, coolers, beach chairs, and a couple of body boards for use at the beach. There are also 2 bicycles, a 10-speed and an adult trike, but these are for use in the neighborhood only. There are bicycle units (Julies Units) for the beach on the island. You will need to provide your own helmets.

House-trained family pets are welcome, but we would like to know if you plan to bring your fur infant, as we have an additional pet addendum to be filled out. An additional, returnable pet fee will be charged ($350), which I will refund included there are no pet damages.

How to book the best Sunset Beach rental home experience:

Getting the best rental value:

• The sooner you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Booking your rental home up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Booking in Spring or Fall is an excellent way to save on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your family qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides contain offers and deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

How to pick the best vacation rental:

• Begin by selecting your vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Cozy, Quiet, 1.8 Miles From Sunset Beach! WiFi, Cable, Pets OK! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wrightsville Beach vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often accessible online. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before you reserve your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or may be applied to your agreement.
• If there's an individual Wrightsville Beach attraction you long to visit, browse rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

During your stay:

• Take a copy of the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your family's stay, record any problem areas when you arrive. E-mail the property manager right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a terrific resource to find the best local beaches.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Just prior to departing, take a walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on great feedback to inspire future bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
