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 amazing 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!

Strategies to get the optimal rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer months are high season in the Havelock area. To find the best value, consider changing your family's Havelock trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• The earlier you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation home up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental.
• Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Havelock area visitors guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Havelock visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to pick the perfect rental home in the Havelock area:

• First and foremost, have your group choose date ranges and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Beautiful, Family Friendly Home with multiple living spaces. has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is almost always available online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property management company before booking the property. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• If there's an individual Havelock attraction you crave, search for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Usually, hosts charge additional pet fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Store the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Make a record of any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute arises.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors disrupting your peaceful neighborhood. Use the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect your property!
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on good ratings to drive future bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
