The open dining and living spaces showcase a pretty white kitchen with granite countertops and updated appliances, complemented by a calming neutral décor and continuous LVP floor.

The layout includes a convenient first-level bedroom and full bathroom.

Located directly across from the NC Wildlife public boat ramp, it's a prime spot for boating enthusiasts. Savor daily walks (or rent bicycles for your visit from a local shop for leisurely bicycle rides) along the Emerald Isle bicycle path that connects you to the stores, eateries, and conveniences of the town center.

Up to two well-behaved dogs may join your stay for an additional fee ($150 for the first dog, $75 for the second).

In accordance with local regulations, dogs must be leashed at all times.

Tricks and tips for getting the perfect Emerald Isle rental experience:

Getting the most from your budget:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is our best tip for saving money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Havelock area magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, travel guides contain discounts for local accommodations and attractions.

Selecting and booking a perfect Havelock rental home:

• Select dates and maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Oceanfront Oasis w\/double covered porch 4 BR\/2BA - updated Emerald Isle classic! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the property manager before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

Have a fantastic stay:

• Get the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent quite a few difficulties.
• Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let thieves ruin your holiday.
• Note any damages to the property at check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if a dispute is filed.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents 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?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything at departure. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a fantastic time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
