New 2024 SEASON .....8 in BLACKSTONE GRIDDLE. Upper level carpet is now gone. The home, if possible, feels even more open with the NEW LUXURY VINYL FLOORS and new AREA RUGS. Appreciate the most handsome beach on the East Coast from this serene light-filled oceanfront home. The clean design and amazing open floor plan make it the ideal place to bring family and friends, with the Atlantic Ocean as your front yard. Due to the unusual orientation of Bogue Bank, you can watch the sun rise AND set from the dramatic deck of this midcentury modern home.
Simple pleasures for all ages abound: long morning walks, body surfing, world class shell collecting, watching porpoises play from the deck, sunbathing and just getting lost in a good book. Food even tastes better on the screened porch! Serve up a casual seafood supper on the breezy screened porch as the sun begins to set.
OUTDOOR- PRIVATE HOT-COLD SHOWER that is a MUST experience!
Three comfortable bedrooms and two baths on the main floor, including a bright and roomy oceanfront master suite. The lower level with direct beach access offers an additional king bedroom, bath and a enormous bunk room to sleep 6, ideal for cousins or single guests. This is accessed from the indoor steps from the great room.
There are only ten steps to the beach from the lower level.
The home is located in a sleepy beachside community. The nearest major attraction is the outstanding North Carolina Aquarium less than five mins. away. Enjoyable eateries are within a ten-min. drive.
This midcentury modern home was constructed in the late 1970's and has remained in our family. It has been appreciated by four generations.
The vistas are marvelous. All but one bedroom, have oceanfront vistas.
If your group is 'all about the beach,' this is the home for you.

New Bern rental home booking tips:

How to get the best rental value:

• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the New Bern area. To get the largest rental for your budget, we highly recommend booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular New Bern attractions and restaurants. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your family qualifies for a price reduction.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local New Bern visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines have coupons for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Planning, picking, and booking your prefectrental home:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your group requires. Ocean Front Emerald Isle - Pine knoll Shores - PET FRIENDLY has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the property manager before you book the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out which bed configuration is optimal for your vacation.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a certain New Bern beach you are crazy about, look for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Tips to have a wonderful stay:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your .
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, television set or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents many problems.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• To make certain no damages are linked to your family's visit, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the host right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers disrupting your peace. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to make sure you have not forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a excellent time? Most rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
