Stunning private sound front property shaded by 100-year old live oak trees with a dock. Just one mile from The Boathouse Marina, public boat ramp, and two miles from the Beaufort docks...ideal distance for golf cart rides. This striking tucked-away rental sports the most striking sunrise in Carteret County as it rises over Harkers Island bridge. Life is slower here where the egrets fish in the marsh and dolphins play as the tide lazily rolls in. This 1800-sq-ft comfortable bungalow has been freshly remodeled and features three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, full capacity laundry room, and roomy living and entertaining areas, including two outdoor decks for additional leisure. Plenty of space to park boat and trailer in yard. Male and female beach cruiser bicycles supplied for meandering through town. Brand new dock that is 12-foot on the T. Catch crabs in the crab pot supplied and fish off the dock. No swimming due to oyster rocks in the marsh and shallow water. Bring your kayaks for amazing adventures through the marsh. By boat, it's only 20 mins. to get to the Cape and 7 mins. to Wade Shore and Shackelford Banks. Gas up the boat around the corner at Boathouse marina. Linens included; smoking outdoors only. We charge a $150 non-returnable pet fee for one dog under 50 pounds. Copy and paste link into your browser for home instructions.

Tips for getting the perfect Havelock vacation home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your rental property up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Summertime is high season in Beaufort. To get the best value, try changing your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer great temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Often, rental management companies supply Havelock area visitor guides that include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Havelock area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting the best vacation home in Beaufort:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your trip dates, and select a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Beau Point: Dog-Friendly Waterfront w\/dock \"Where live oaks meet the sea…” has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property management company before booking your rental. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to work out what is right for your family.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you will need a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• If there's a specific Havelock beach you are crazy about, browse homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More considerations:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let thieves spoil your vacation.
• Note any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Be a good neighbor. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at departure. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental a final time and look for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a fantastic time? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
