If you're looking for convenience to the beach, water vistas, direct water access, a hot tub, outdoor shower, and loads privacy in a well-appointed beach home, Angels Landing is your kind of place! And, if you have a well-behaved and clean four-legged friend (or two) who you’d really like to appreciate your vacation with, we’ll allow them, too! Emerald Isle is dog friendly; they’re even allowed on the beach year-round and at nearly all outdoor eateries! If we approve your dog(s) to stay, our pet fee is $35/nighttime for the first dog and $15/nighttime for a second (the second pet fee will be invoiced separately from your initial Vacation Rental By Owner booking). This is much less expensive and much more fun than boarding your best friends!

Our well maintained and adored bungalow rests on a one-lane, tree-lined street that dead ends at a court overlooking the pretty Bogue Sound. The Sound is also partly visible from the bungalow's front yard and living room. The bungalow's driveway is right off the court and has ample private parking.

Beach fans will appreciate how convenient the sand and warm ocean waters are from Angels Landing. Two different beach access points are a short walk. The beach is such a short distance that it won’t be a problem to dash home for lunch, supplies, and naps, or to head back to the beach in the evening to witness sunsets that will take your breath away (see our photos for an example). Our south-facing beach has striking sunsets and features warm waters during an extended May through October/November swim season. We provide beach chairs, a beach cart, a Shabumi beach shade, body boards, a skim board, and some other beach toys and games to savor (like Can Jam, a Frisbee, bocce ball, etc.). And, you'll always have plenty of space to spread out on the beach even during the busiest summer days because there is not public parking where our home's access points are!

When you come home from the beach, you'll savor the huge outdoor shower that has hot water and vistas of the Live Oak trees and canal. The separate, sizable changing area makes for added convenience.

Our home features a giant, 20x25 foot deck that includes a 6-person hot tub! An outdoor dining table is the ideal place for appreciating meals outside, and the soft lighting that we provide creates a great space for continuing the conversation and fun outside after the sun sets. The deck overlooks a back yard that is full of mature, Live Oak trees, and a canal with a private dock. The deck is completely private -- your neighbors and you won't be looking at each other! The view from the deck also is spectacular on clear nights. The lack of light pollution at this part of the island makes for a spectacular nighttime sky.

The canal out back leads out to the Bogue Sound and is extremely calming. Our private dock has Adirondack chairs in the shade - ideal for reading a book or simply having a drink while you watch and listen to the birds go about their day. Launch our two kayaks or an adult-sized paddle board (life vests also supplied) from the dock or from a water's edge spot that's also on our property. The Bogue Sound is known for great fishing, oysters, and other wildlife, and has tons of islands to discover that you can only access via kayak.

The huge yard features mature Live Oak trees in an undisturbed setting, providing shade, privacy, and a home to native birds. They'll sing as you sip your coffee on the deck or the dock. It is impossible to describe the tranquility and tranquility of the time spent in this setting or the calming feeling of resting in the hammock as a light breeze rustles the tree leaves.

Inside, the well-equipped kitchen includes various gadgets that cooks will adore, a full-sized microwave and dishwasher, a Keurig machine, a Nespresso Vertuo machine, a standard coffee maker, toaster, crock pot, blender, air fryer, hand held and full-sized blenders, and various other tools of the trade, along with a enormous collection of spices. Tired of vacation homes with nasty old pots worn out Teflon pans? Not here! Dull knives? Nope! Not enough silverware, grille tools, measuring spoons and cups, serving dishes, and the like? Not here! We also provide a gas grille with ample gas and grilling silverware. The indoor dining area seats six and overlooks the deck through a sizable sliding door.

The family room has tons seating so for gathering comfortably. Savor conversation, games (we provide many!), the 65-inch QLED HDTV with Spectrum streaming (like cable, essentially). All TVs are intelligent or Roku-enabled so that you can log into streaming services, including Spectrum, from every room. Need strong Wifi for work and gaming? No Problem! Appreciate a full gigabit speed wireless, encrypted internet access powered by the latest model high speed router. Working remotely, even on a VPN, and video calls are no problem at all. We also provide a peaceful, comfortable desk work space with an additional LCD screen (and connecting HDMI cable) in one of the upstairs bedrooms, should you need to participate in a virtual meeting. Familiar with Sonos? If not, you should be! We offer Sonos speakers in various rooms so that you can connect with the Sonos app. and stream tunes throughout the home. Great tunes are a must on vacation!

Angels Landing offers three nice-sized bedrooms. The primary bedroom is on the ground level and features a king bed with a comfortable, high-end hybrid bed and a sizable HDTV. The primary bedroom has its own bathroom with a enormous, low step-in shower and a walk-in closet. Upstairs, the two huge bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bathroom with a full tub and shower. The first upstairs room has a queen bed, a huge HDTV, and a private walk-in closet. The second upstairs bedroom has a queen bed and a twin bunk bed, plus another HDTV. There's even a second upstairs walk-in closet adjoining the upstairs bath that has games and other toys that you'll be complimentary to enjoy. We don't have old, cheap rental beds, either. You'll see many reviewers comment about how cozy the beds are. We even provide a large assortment of pillows for varying preferences.

Bed linens and bath towels are included, and all beds will be made when you arrive (who wants to arrive at a vacation home and start making beds?!). Ceiling fans in every bedroom provide additional comfort, and we also provide a large selection of pillows of different thicknesses and types from which to choose.

Like to discover, shop, or go out to eat? You’ll appreciate Emerald Isle and how close our home is to all of its great amenities! It’s an ideal beach town with many locally-owned eateries and seafood markets, stores, grocery stores, a movie theater, massage and nail salons, and other fun places to discover. The island offers a fishing pier, tennis courts, playgrounds, a wide bicycle path, and an economical water park that’s ideal for kids. The bridge to the mainland and all it has to offer is only 3 miles from the bungalow. We’ll have recommendations and resources for you to read about and access when you arrive and will provide some other useful info ahead of time, after you book. Angels Landing is ideally located because you get peace and peaceful when you want but is also close to the island’s stores and the mainland. You'll also be a convenient drive from tons of close by towns to discover: Swansboro, Atlantic Beach, Morehead City, and Beaufort (pronounced “Boh-Fert”).

We want you to enjoy our home as much as we do and thank you in advance for considering the bungalow and taking care of it with the kind of adore that we do. We respond quickly to your questions and requests and our property manager is incredibly kind and lives right down the street (and we appreciate supporting him because he's retired military). The check-in process and staying in a vacation home shouldn't bring additional anxiety to your life, and we do our absolute best to make sure it won’t!

Although we enjoy all of the great reviews of our home, we don't let them lure us into complacency. We are always looking for ways to improve and make our property something special to experience.

Getting the best rental home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• In the New Bern area, The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental home.
• Summer months are high season in the New Bern area. To get the best rental for your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular New Bern attractions. 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.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines have deals for nearby tours and attractions.

Narrow your Search:

• Select a group leader, choose your dates, and choose a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Angels Landing: Close to Beach, Huge Deck, Hot Tub, Canal, Kayaks, Well-Stocked! has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern vacation rental search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. If not, call the property management company before reserving the rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your group is bringing pets, you must book a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Often, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a certain New Bern beach you simply love, look for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .

More considerations for your visit:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your visit, inspect for any problem areas during check in. E-mail the property manager immediately to document any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your home life. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong 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 review.
