Welcome to Happy Ours on Ocean Ridge — one of those distinct and exclusive spots where the name of the street is part of the local lore and symbolizes so much. In this case, it conjures up images of peaceful beaches, pristine waters and luxe living. The neighborhood is a prominent and favorite Atlantic Beach locale. Homes began to be constructed decades ago to be appreciated generation after generation— for families and beachgoers, whether year-round, for holidays or as a summer home.

Along with the ideal oceanfront location with sweeping vistas of the sand and the surf, you will find classic homes— from the modest, sweet Cape Cod style cottages to bigger, more modern designs decked out in cedar shakes like this home that flaunts more than 5,000 sq feet of light-filled space. Pretty scenery, prestige and timeless style are the unifying factors all along this single-street community.

This home was constructed to highlight the enchanting surroundings and enhance the quality of life for all who enter. From the bottom to the top third floor, each level has been thoughtfully designed and laid out for ease and flow, family and friends, and the joy of coastal living.

The basement is where you’ll find the bunk room, featuring a king bed and two sets of twin bunk beds with queen beds on the bottom and twins on top. This level features a full bathroom with a tiled walk-in shower.

The second level is the main floor of the home, where you will gather with guests to relax, appreciate meals together or plan events, big or modest. This home is the ideal place to celebrate any occasion, and the backdrop of rolling waves and sunshine will enhance any event! The main living area is all windows and light with an impressive amount of space that make mingling and spreading good cheer effortless. This floor includes a gourmet kitchen, dining and living areas a flat-screen TV over the mantel, and additional comfortable seating that faces the sea — the ideal place to have your coffee in the morning. This level is also where you will find one of the primary bedrooms with a full master bath and walk-in tile shower. There is a powder room with a half bath in the entryway, too!

Welcome to the third floor and another primary suite with a king bed and full master bath. This floor offers an additional bedroom and king bed. This full bath includes a shower and a bathtub for those mornings or nights when you need a hot soak in the tub! The fourth bedroom has two queen beds, a full bath, a tub and shower, and even a fifth bedroom with a king-size bed that shares a bathroom with bedroom number four.
In addition to the fantastic space inside, the opportunity to savor your surroundings continues outdoors. Happy Ours is where you can while away the hours with a drink or glass of wine on porches and patios or by the pool. The gorgeous thing is... dips in the pool are possible nearly any time of year with heated water. As long as it's 50° or more, jump on in! Or, hit the hot tub and soothe your aches and woes away! While you're at it, marvel at the unbeatable Carolina sunsets while you watch the clouds float by. When it’s time to tear yourself away, there is fun to be had only a hop skip and a jump away. Head to the celebrated Circle for ice cream, hit up the local stores, visit the sharks at the NC Aquarium, or have dinner out on the town. When you stay at Happy Ours, every hour is a happy one!

Finding the best Atlantic Beach rental home experience:

When to reserve a New Bern rental & When to go:

• The sooner you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Reserving your rental 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Summer is the most expensive season in Atlantic Beach. Book your rental property in the Spring or Fall to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the 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 family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Many rental management companies supply New Bern area travel guide magazines which will include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Filter your search:

• Choose your dates and max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Oceanfront Home with Private Pool & Elevator (Happy Ours) has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is commonly accessible online. Otherwise, email or call the host before you book the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what configuration is optimal for your trip.
• Some properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the owner about your furry family members before booking.
• Visiting for a single attraction? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Tips for your stay:

• Get the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Record any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent source for finding the best local beaches.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a great time? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
