This comfortable oceanfront home awaits you in the secluded sea to sound community of Beacon's Reach. It is a excellent gathering place for family and friends. Many lifetime memories will be made here, and we invite you to join in the fun! Just steps down the private boardwalk from your back door, the beach invites you to walk, swim, fish and sunbathe. Savor morning coffee watching dolphins and shorebirds from your private deck. Here barefoot is best, with sandy toes, and doing nothing is okay. Unwind by walking the beach, sunbathing, gathering shells and end the ideal day as you listen to the sound of the ocean lull you to sleep. For the 2015 season we have added a six (6) seat hot tub and new ground level entertainment deck.
This three-level 3,500 square foot home welcomes guests of all ages, it was designed to be a family home so is both kid and adult friendly. The elevator provides simple access for older or handicapped persons and is a blessing when moving in. The enormous kitchen and eating area have ocean vistas as does the upstairs master bedroom and cavernous family gathering room. There is plenty of space for folks to prepare or just hang out at the charming bar and tons of places for kids and young adults to play without being underfoot. The family room has a 51' flat screen and all four bedrooms have either a 32' or 46'. There is a roomy outside deck with a huge teak dining table and a gas grille. The end of the boardwalk finds you at the oceanside deck and multiple steps to the peaceful beach, where you will find the ideal place to simply savor the beauty of the seashore.
If you choose to venture farther than your beach chair you'll discover plenty of activities and attractions on Bogue Banks, all within a few mins. drive. If you head straight east through Pine Knoll Shores, on the eastern tip of the island (about a 10 min. drive) stands Fort Macon, a restored and newly-refurbished pre-Civil War fortress, the most-visited State park in North Carolina. Discover the North Carolina Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores, located about two miles down the road in the Roosevelt Natural Area. Driving west, you will encounter the modest fishing villages of Salter Path and Indian Beach and at the far western end of the island, the community of Emerald Isle.

Pine Knoll Shores rental booking tips and tricks:

Sticking to a rental budget:

• To find the largest rental within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at your favorite New Bern restaurants and activities.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Look for your local New Bern visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides have money saving offers on nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Finding the perfect rental home:

• Select a designated group leader, choose your trip dates, and choose a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Beacon's Reach Oceanfront 4BD\/4.5BA w\/elevator. Hot Tub, Pools & Tennis Courts has 4 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible on booking pages. If not, contact the property management company before reserving the rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• Visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• Are you bringing the family pet? 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. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or costs may be applied to your agreement.

Additional considerations:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your phone.
• To make sure damages aren't linked to your family's visit, note any problem areas during check in. text the rental manager right away to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, intercom or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors disrupting your peaceful home. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and places you would've never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Keep your rental home locked while you're out! Don't let crooks ruin your vacation.
• At departure, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget anything. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and look for damage. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on good feedback to drive future bookings. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
