Appreciate Winds is kept fresh by changing out furnishings every couple of years. We also change the pillows after each season as well as bedspreads. Sometimes the photos don't reflect those changes and so making it painless to see that we do as we say.If fresh and clean is important to you then you have found the right place to stay.
In a straight line the home is a half of a mile from beach.
If you want to walk to the beach take the breathtaking walkway at the end of our street. The nature trail starts out going over a bridge "Little Davies canal", through the woods then a boardwalk over the marsh, you will come to a street and should be able to see the ocean at that point, the walk takes about 15 - 20 mins..
You can shorten the walk by parking at the recreation center and walking from there, it cuts the walk time by half.
Take a fishing rod and fish off the boardwalk on your way back from the beach for a fresh dinner.
If you have tons to carry then it's a 2 min. drive to the many access points you can park ,some are just yards from the beach next to the homes on the beach.

After a long day at the beach savor the shade of the striking oak trees surrounding the home and untouched wooded tons next door. Sit in the screened in deck and watch the modest wild life frolic in the yard. In the evening sit at the fire pit next to the home.
Take a charming evening walk to the beach down our street and through the nature trail. Find your inner kid and discover the tree home or bring a fishing poll and fish off the boardwalk.Then continue your walk down to the beach.

Tips to get the very best vacation property experience:

Sticking to your budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To find the best value, try shifting your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer great weather, , and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• The earlier you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation rental six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Property management companies sometimes offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines have money saving offers on nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose your vacation dates and max budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration you need. Clean ~ beautiful setting ~ scenic walk or ride your bikes to the beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property owner before booking the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds. You will need to determine which bed configuration is best for your family.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction or event? If so, use a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the owner about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

More considerations:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your smartphone.
• Upon check-in, make note of any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents many difficulties.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental property while you're away! Don't let crooks spoil your holiday.
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a excellent time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
