Savor second to none vistas of Bogue Sound with your whole family. Fish or boat from your private dock. Take in the sunset from one of three decks overlooking the water. With a 5 min. bicycle ride to the beach you can savor both the beach and the sound. Decorated with colorful beach decor throughout, this home is warm and inviting. With ample parking for 6 to 8 cars and a boat this home is really special and one of kind.

The kitchen was designed to resemble the cabin of a sportfishing boat and the rest of the home is decorated with an fashonable coastal touch. The master bath floor is cork. There is a cavernous outside shower with a bench that has a mounted surfboard inside. There are two living areas, both with flat screen tv's and there are tv's in every bedroom expect the bunk room. An air bed can be utilized in the down stairs living area to sleep a total 12 guest.

There is a private dock with a cleaning station. You can dock your boat behind the boat lift on the left side only. The right side of the dock is not available for docking. It can be a little cumbersome if you are keeping your boat in the water for long periods of time. The boat lift can be added for an additional upfront $500/fee no matter the length of stay. The lift and dock is limited to 23' and under boats. I will personally meet you and review the operating instructions for the lift if added before unlocking the lift. The lift is currently set up for a 21' center console. The back yard is fenced in for your family pets. There is a sandbar that is visible at low tide directly across from the home that is comfortably swimmable. This is one of my family's favorite things to do. On the sandbar you can find many shells and interesting creatures. Make sure you don't miss the sunsets from one of the 3 back decks! The garage is kept locked as owner storage.

Our top Atlantic Beach rental booking tips:

Getting the best rental value:

• In the Havelock area, The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved very early. Booking your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Havelock area. Reserve your Havelock rental in Fall or Spring months to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your family qualifies for a price reduction.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local Havelock area magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitors guides have discounts for local shops and restaurants.
