Looking for gasp-worthy panoramas of the shimmering Atlantic on BHI’s High Dunes? This reverse-plan, four-bedroom, 4.5 bath Dudley Parker constructed home is perched up on a wooded, winding drive-emerging above treetops to reveal spectacular seascapes. The home is conveniently located near the center of the Island and close to the Market, island shopping, dining and all clubs and amenities. And most importantly, direct beach access to South Beach is only a 2-min. walk.

This home's first level offers private front and side porches and, inside, its entry warmly welcomes you to beach living. The first floor offers three, newly painted and refreshed suites-each include new wood floors, their own private full-bath with granite counters and tiled showers. The first two suites-a King and a Queen-are light-filled rooms with generous closets and storage. The third bedroom is furnished with two twin beds and offers direct access to the front porch.

Upstairs, a vaulted-ceiling open floor plan makes the most of its walls of windows by highlighting ocean panoramas extending from Frying Pan Shoals all the way down South Beach. The bright living space extends to a huge, covered wraparound sitting porch to appreciate the big ocean vistas, an afternoon gathering or an outdoor lunch or dinner. You’ll spend contented hours with family and friends while relishing shimmering seascapes and savoring drinks and snacks as well as salty breezes. The gourmet kitchen, equipped with a window-surrounded dining table for 8, is equipped with modern stainless appliances, gas stove, coffee bar and generous counter space with both ocean and forested dune vistas. Nearby, a granite breakfast bar offers even more seating. The upstairs Primary suite has a king bed and features breath taking vistas of the ocean and horizon where you will awake to striking sunlit vistas. It includes its own access to the sitting porch, a private office and an oversize ensuite bath with double vanity, a water closet, and a enormous glass enclosed shower. Conveniently located near the Island's center-close to both the beach and stores and providing access to WWP's 24/7 Property Manager Assistance Line-which means you can reach needed help even after hours or on weekends, this gem is an ideal BHI haven.

Tips and Tricks for getting the best Bald Head Island vacation rental experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a Brunswick area rental home:

• June, July, and August are high season in Bald Head Island. To get the best value, consider changing your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• The sooner you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guide magazines contain discounts for local tours and attractions.

Choosing the best rental:

• Choose vacation dates and spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Captain Tank's is a Grand 4BR\/4.5BA Dunes Ridge Getaway with Ocean Views! has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is generally available online. If they are not listed, email the property management company before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's a specific Brunswick area attraction you simply love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before booking
• Some rentals allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.

Tips for a wonderful stay:

• We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Note any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if there is a dispute.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be respectful. Often times, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let thieves spoil your holiday.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal belongings. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great ratings to stimulate future bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
