You can’t help but imagine all the potential fun in this gem of a home only a short walk from the Atlantic Ocean. Inside, you step into a living room with modern updates but plenty of casual, retro coolness. A wood burning fireplace and flat-screen intelligent TV and stereo promise cozy coastal ambiance alongside surf memorabilia and a comfortable collection of furnishings that inspire relaxation. Our home has been thoughtfully designed, furnished and appointed with everything you will need to feel right at home! I want you to feel like you're staying at your home away from home!

You can dine at the live-edge table near the fireplace or step into the more casual dining area in the kitchen with four seats at the breakfast bar. The living and dining room is flanked by two sets of French doors that offer double the outdoor options and tons of natural light. The entirely equipped kitchen has an electric cooktop, convection oven, refrigerator, microwave and dishwasher; all you’ll need for casual dining for your hungry surfers. You can dine outdoors, too, in a pretty, private yard with tables and lounge space located on both levels. Follow the path to the dock for yet another spot to gather! Upstairs, you will also find two thoughtfully designed bedrooms and the freshly modernized guest bath.

Downstairs you will find a private primary suite, laundry room, den and game table that seats 6 or more. Books and games are included for your enjoyment.

You will appreciate the privacy of the saltwater pool, fire pit, covered porch and deck after a long day at the ocean! You can even watch the wildlife in the canal right from the living room! Three ocean access points are a short walk away - one with golf cart parking. The sound side location and access to Bogue Sound right from the yard make this an ideal place for your beach vacation. Bring your friends and family to the Surf Shack and savor the coastal vibe!

Just a short walk to the beach. You're about 2 and a half blocks away which is closer than some ocean side properties on the island.

A Vacation Rental Agreement and valid photo ID is required to book.

We follow the cancellation policy and strongly suggest that you purchase trip insurance for your stay. We do not refund outside our cancellation policy.

Although our home has been modernized, it is not a new home. Please use caution on the sea wall. We like the quirky vibes of a classic beach bungalow. If you are looking for a brand-new place, this is not for you.

Emerald Isle rental booking tips:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Emerald Isle. Booking your Havelock vacation home in Fall or Spring months is a great way to save on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Havelock vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• The sooner you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Owners sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Havelock area travel guide magazines which include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Havelock visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

How to pick the perfect vacation rental:

• Begin by selecting your trip dates and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Waterfront Home with Private Pool - Short Walk to Ocean has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, call the property manager before you reserve your rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property management company about your furry family members before booking.

Tips for your stay:

• Be sure you get the host's contact number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home. Put the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make certain that no damages are attributed to your family's stay, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. Contact the rental manager right away to relay any issues. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. 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!
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget anything. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on good feedback to compel new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will be thankful you shared 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 owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
