Dog friendly. Majestic vistas of the Intracoastal Waterway! Swims in the canal, kayaking, fishing from the boat dock! The location provides painless access for ocean-bound or waterway fishing trips including day trips to island beaches close by. The beach is a short 10-min. walk. A huge beach cart is included with room for a cooler and beach chairs. There are also 4 beach chairs and a corn hole board available for your use.

When you arrive...
- The prevalent "change-over" day occurred the day before. It is much easier (traffic) to get here.
- Linens are included. Not only are the linens supplied, but the BEDS ARE MADE TOO! If RENTED FOR THE ENTIRE WEEK, towels will also be supplied.
- You discover that all of the basic supplies you will need for your stay are outfitted and waiting. Even the spice cabinet is loaded up for your use. Maybe you do not need to go to the store after arrival.
- You have 2 fridges. The downstairs refrigerator is turned down for cold drink storage and has an ice maker. The upstairs refrigerator also has an ice maker and is the place for food storage.
- Since you are arriving on Sunday, not the prevalent "change-over" day, the landing shouldn't be as busy when you go to put your boat in the water. I also suggest loading the boat back on the trailer 11 am and 2 PM on Saturday to avoid the peak time the landing is used.

The front and back decks have been modernized with cabled railings. There are gathering places on both decks but mainly on the back deck. The back deck has been redesigned to provide more usable space. on the back deck, there is a patio table with seating for 8 people. There is also a picnic table that provides ample seating for 6 people. And there are rockers for people like me who just appreciate sitting out and watching the boat traffic on the canal and intra-coastal waterway.

The kitchen has been completely remodeled with new cabinets and countertops. More storage space was added.

The vanities in both bathrooms have been refreshed.

The old windows have been replaced with "peaceful" and hurricane-rated windows.

Enormous living area, 4 bedrooms / 2 baths upstairs / 2 bedrooms / 1 bath downstairs. Sleeps, 13 people. Decks on the front and the canal side of the home upstairs. It also includes a patio and outdoor shower downstairs.

A floating dock at the end of the walkway provides convenient docking space, flounder fishing, or a platform for swims in the canal.

A washer, dryer, AND an additional refrigerator/freezer with an ice maker are supplied downstairs in the storage room.

There is no need to go anywhere else (by land) after arrival. The patio downstairs includes all of the cooking tools needed (grilles, 2-eye gas burner, etc.) to prepare your own feasts.

Ample parking for 6 cars.

NOTE: There is a $100 Administrative Fee (per booking) added to the price for renting our bungalow. If you report to the owner (by e-mail, text, or phone call) that you DID NOT bring family pets, the $100 administrative fee will be refunded to you after your stay.

Strategies for getting the perfect vacation property experience:

When to visit Ocean Isle Beach & When to reserve a rental home:

• The sooner your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Reserving your rental home six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Summer time is high season in the Wrightsville Beach area. To find the best vacation home within your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines have discounts for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Choosing and booking your prefectrental:

• Choose a group leader, choose your dates, and select a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Dog Friendly! Non-Smoking. Cottage w\/Dock and Deep Water Access on Natural Canal has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property management company before you book the vacation home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Remember to include your furry companions! 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! Pet fees or charges applied to your invoice.
• If there's an individual Wrightsville Beach destination you crave, search for homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

More tips for your stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or washer/dryer. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of problems.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would at home.
• To make certain damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, make a record of any problem areas during arrival. text the host immediately to relay any issues. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a fantastic source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Double-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your family's items on check-out day. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Property owners rely on good feedback to drive new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback find their best vacation rental. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
