About this Property

• Sleeps 2
• 1 Bedrooms
• 1 Bathrooms
• Apartment
• Approximately 425 square feet

Our comfortable deck invites you into an open, light-filled space that is ideal for every occasion. With stores and eateries less than two miles away, you can discover the striking town of Beaufort by foot, golf cart, bicycle or water! Embark on local adventures to Shackleford Banks & Harkers Island OR simply kickback to savor the cavernous outdoors, grille, friendly locals, games and more! Plus your pooch can come too!

This property has been maintained as a 5 star stay and was freshly purchased by us (5 star hosts). It was voted as Beaufort’s top short-term stay in 2022. The Loft is located above a retail space, Dancing Baristas Cafe, which opened in March 2023. There will be patrons visiting the shop downstairs for early morning coffee and the business will be hosting occasional afternoon/evening events on site. The entire outdoor space is considered common area for all guests to appreciate and we hope you will participate in all of the fun being offered right outside your door! However, the upstairs area is reserved only for our Vacation Rental By Owner guests and you will not be sharing any indoor spaces. If you'd like to engage in the community, meet locals, feel some excitement and learn more about the area...you will adore this spot! Please feel complimentary to connect with me to learn about any events that may be taking place during your stay or check out the Dancing Baristas Cafe (DBC) on social media.

Guests will have access to the upstairs loft (private entrance) as well as the outdoor spaces. Find yourself at home with a propane grille, outdoor shower (seasonal), outdoor patio furnishings and more. Reserved parking is available for our guests. If you have your dog along, you'll find a modest fenced area where they can loosen their legs after a long car ride!

Within 1.5 miles you'll land in the Historic Downtown of Beaufort, where you'll find bars, eateries, ice cream, live music, ferry services and more. While some may consider walking downtown, most guests opt to hop on a bicycle or golf cart. Rent these locally and take advantage of the delivery services available so they'll be waiting upon your arrival! We'll be happy to share directions for a shortcut to downtown - the trail over the Turner Street bridge is just around the corner!

We bet you'll find yourself planning a return trip before you've even left!

Tips and Tricks to get the optimal Havelock vacation home experience:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Havelock area. To get the best value, change your family's Havelock trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer great weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Owners sometimes offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Havelock visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines contain discounts for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Planning and picking your Havelock vacation home:

• Select a group lead, choose your vacation dates, and select a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Trendy Loft w\/ Energetic Outdoors - 5 min from the beach and pet friendly! has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible on booking pages. If not, email or call the property owner before reserving the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• If there's a specific Havelock beach you crave, keep an eye out for homes that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-in, record any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected everything. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property managers rely on great feedback to compel more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other families will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
