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 amazing 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 modernized and features three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, full capacity laundry room, and cavernous 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 exceptional 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.

Tips to get the very best vacation home experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To find the best value, try shifting your vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Look for your local Havelock visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines have money saving offers on local shops and restaurants.

Selecting the best rental in Beaufort:

• To start, have your group choose the best dates and a budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Beau Point: Dog-Friendly Waterfront w\/dock \"Where live oaks meet the sea…” has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. If they are not listed, contact the host before reserving the rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You'll need to work out what is optimal for your vacation family.
• If there's an individual Havelock attraction you are enamored with, search for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional fees or charges applied to your contract.

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Record any issues with the property at check in, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be useful if damages are assessed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent many problems.
• Respect your neighbors. Often times, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• At departure, take a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on good feedback to inspire new bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
