Located between two unspoiled beaches in the Cape Fear Station of Bald Head Island, NC--Our home offers a calming and modern hideaway from everyday life. It is located in the enchanting maritime forest with simple access to two pristine beaches and the Bald Head Island conservancy.

This location offers guests the opportunity to experience nature and still appreciate refreshed amenities. You will have painless access to miles of hiking, cycling and running trails. If you wish, the option to purchase temporary membership at the close by handsome Shoals Club is also available.

When you arrive, swing open the white-picket fence and walk down the cozy boardwalk toward the Nantucket-inspired bungalow. On the way, there is an outdoor shower and access to a "tree home" style guest bungalow with a queen-size bed and ensuite. At the main home, the screened in porch offers a place to play cards, savor thoughtful conversation, breathe in the salty, fresh air, and listen to the symphony of nature--tree frogs, calming surf, and cicadas guaranteed. Al fresco dining an option. Gas-grille available.

Strategies to get the perfect Bald Head Island vacation property experience:

Finding the best value:

• To get the most suitable rental within budget, we recommend reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides have discounts for nearby accommodations, tours and attractions.

Choosing the perfect vacation home:

• Start by selecting vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Welcome to High Tides and Good Vibes has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the property owner before booking the property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. .
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask your host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Tips to have a great stay:

• Add the owner's contact information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Upon check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your peace. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental while you're out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed everything at check-out. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental one final time and scan for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager isn't available, take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a excellent stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
