Located between two unspoiled beaches in the Cape Fear Station of Bald Head Island, NC--Our home offers a peaceful and modern hideaway from everyday life. It is located in the enchanting maritime forest with simple access to two pristine beaches and the Bald Head Island conservancy.

This location offers guests the opportunity to experience nature and still appreciate refreshed amenities. You will have painless access to miles of hiking, cycling and running trails. If you wish, the option to purchase temporary membership at the close by opulent Shoals Club is also available.

When you arrive, swing open the white-picket fence and walk down the cozy boardwalk toward the Nantucket-inspired bungalow. On the way, there is an outdoor shower and access to a "tree home" style guest bungalow with a queen-size bed and ensuite. At the main home, the screened in porch offers a place to play cards, savor thoughtful conversation, breathe in the salty, fresh air, and listen to the symphony of nature--tree frogs, calming surf, and cicadas guaranteed. Al fresco dining an option. Gas-grille available.

Enter a welcoming kitchen with stainless steel appliances connected to an intimate dining area which comfortably seats 6 (including a comfortable constructed-in window seat).

Upstairs offers, two bedrooms (each with private bathrooms) and washing machine & dryer. One king-size bed and one queen-size bed.

The front porch has access to a calming boardwalk to enjoy nature among palmettos, a community gazebo, ancient oaks, and Spanish moss. Follow the sounds of the surf and experience a spectacular sunrise on East Beach. Or check-out the educational programs available at the Nature Conservancy. The sea turtles are their specialty!

Vacation rental home tips and tricks:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Booking your Wrightsville Beach vacation rental in Spring or Fall is our favorite way to save money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wrightsville Beach area visitor guide magazines that include special deals, either offered directly by local companies, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wrightsville Beach area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting the best vacation home:

• Select a designated group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Welcome to High Tides and Good Vibes has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wrightsville Beach rentals search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, reach out to the property manager before you reserve the property. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to establish which bed configuration is optimal for your trip.
• Some rentals allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's a specific Wrightsville Beach destination you crave, look for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before booking

Have a great stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• At Check-in, note any issues with the property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant vacationers bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would've not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently 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 crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, remember to take pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Did your family have a terrific time? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
