Our family has adored Atlantic Beach for over 70 years. We constructed this home for our family and others to appreciate, so it has amenities and touches that most units lack. We have games, books, and beach chairs for your enjoyment. An enclosed outdoor shower helps you clean up before coming in. Vehicles can park under the home and behind the home. 6 cars fit comfortably (more could be accommodated). We have unique wood floors throughout, which are made with wood that was refurbished from our family's farm in eastern North Carolina.

Atlantic Beach and the surrounding area has much to do for any age group. It is also a magnificent place to visit in the off-season.

You won't be disappointed with our home. We hope you will find yourself Atlantic Beach-bound soon!

How to find the best vacation home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserve your New Bern rental in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Owners sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitors guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Begin by choosing vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Beautiful, Family Friendly Home with multiple living spaces. has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is regularly available online. Otherwise, call the property manager before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Do your family pets travel with you? 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! Extra fees or charges might be applied to your contract.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental

More tips for your visit:

• Add the owner's contact info to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, stereo or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of difficulties.
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars spoil your holiday.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. E-mail the property manager immediately to record any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a great source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property a final time and look for damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on excellent ratings to stimulate future reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
