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. Elegant scenery, prestige and timeless style are the unifying factors all along this single-street community.

This home was constructed to highlight the gorgeous 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 exceptional 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 striking 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!

Strategies to get the perfect rental home experience:

Sticking to a spending budget:

• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are high season in the New Bern area. To get the best rental within budget, we recommend booking in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at New Bern restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. 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 and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local New Bern visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guides have money saving offers on local tours and attractions.

How to choose and book the perfect New Bern rental home:

• Choose dates and spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Happy Ours- Oceanfront Home with Private Heated Pool & Elevator in Atlantic Beach, NC has 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before you book the vacation property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to determine what is optimal for your vacation group.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• If there's an individual New Bern attraction you long to visit, keep an eye out for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking

Advice for your stay:

• Put the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent lots of problems.
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Upon arrival, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Respect your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a terrific stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix 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 comments.
