Do you appreciate going to the pool? Biking? Walking? Kayaking? Boating? The Beach? Hanging out in what Travel and Leisure named "America's Favorite Town," and Southern Living chose as "The South's Finest Modest Town"? Well, you are in the right place! Conch Tales is a lakeside townhome in charming Beau Coast, just six blocks from Taylor's Creek, Beaufort's waterfront, and 2 miles from the heart of historic downtown Beaufort. That's an painless bicycle or golf cart ride under a canopy of live oaks along Taylor's Creek to great eateries, unique stores, and tons of fun places to visit and things to see and do. Ferries to the islands leave from the waterfront.

This handsome, well-equipped 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath townhouse overlooks the lake from all three floors. The home lives well for both a friends or family getaway with a queen bedroom and full bath on the ground level, open living and kitchen on the 2nd floor with a powder room. Go up to the 3rd floor for an en suite master bedroom with a queen bed and balcony overlooking the lake while down the hall is a third bedroom with two twin beds and a full bath.

This home is set up with fun in mind. There are three patios, one with a grille, 11 dining seats, games and streaming TVs, 2 kayaks with paddles and life jackets, and of course the striking Traders club home and pool only one block away. Once you get here, you won't want to leave but at least you'll have memories and many Conch Tales to share with friends.

Beau Coast community offers a day dock right on Taylors Creek, an event lawn, gym, clubhouse with a beautiful pool, shuffleboard table, ping pong and corn hole. Hang out at Traders, a facility in Beau Coast with a variety of food from Beaufort Grocery, craft beers and outdoor sitting area with a fire pit.

Booking the best vacation property experience:

When to go & When to book:

• Summer is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Booking your vacation home in the Fall or Spring is our best tip for saving money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties.
• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer special rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Havelock area travel guide magazines which often include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Havelock visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

• Did you have a fantastic vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews.

If anything was imperfect and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
