Marker 57 - 5 Bedroom 4.5 Bath House, Holden Beach, Walk to Beach, On Intracoastal Waterway, Pool, Dock, Sleeps12

****New to the Rental Market****

****Please Note: There is a floating dock, but be aware that the waves can be sizable and the water depth can get less than two feet deep at low tide. The float moves generously with the waves. Some boats will handle the waves okay with proper spring lines and fenders. Others should consider it too risky.****

Holden Beach home “Marker 57” is located on the Intercoastal Waterway with its own dock, pool, and a short approximate 5-min. breathtaking walk along the marsh to the beach and General Store. Being on the actual ICW is a lot different from a canal home, which is more typical. Marker 57 offers wide sweeping vistas of water, marsh, and nature, instead of feeling so surrounded by other homes. It offers a front row seat to watch the yachts traveling by and other boaters having fun.

The dock has a gazebo with plenty of seating, a sink, electricity, and lighting. Thoughtful owners have supplied kayaks, as this is a great place to use them! The owners also say that the fishing has proven to be amazing. Due to the East/West orientation of the waterway here, Marker 57 gets both sunrise and sunset vistas that can be spectacular! Dolphins can often be seen cruising by on a regular basis.

The 50-acre marsh next to the home is a great natural asset for Marker 57. There is a excellent tidal creek that curves right in front of the home and right beside the home. It provides a lot of bait for fishing and offers a fun, 1-mile round-trip around an island and into the waterway for kayaks.

The pool adds tons of fun to Marker 57. It is a nice 13x26 size and overlooks the marsh. The pool can be heated (for an additional fee) if you choose. The owner has placed regulation marks on the pool deck and included a Corn Hole game set for you to savor. The pool area also has its own hot and cold outdoor shower.

A Grandiose Central Hang-Out has been created on the ground level in the garage. If it is really hot or rainy, but you still want to be outside, this is the place to be! It’s spectacular how nice this area can be when all three bay doors are open to the view of the marsh and creek! Open the front and back doors as well and let the breeze come through. In addition to room for two cars, there is a huge sitting area with TV and a Ping-Pong area. There is a second laundry room with refrigerator and freezer, microwave, and air fryer, as well as a full bathroom with enormous utility sink and bathtub. This area is called “Grand Central” due to its location between the dock and pool, people coming and going to the beach, and people in and out of the home. This is a great part of Marker 57.

Marker 57 has 5 bedrooms including, the bunk room. All 5 bedrooms have huge TVs, charming vistas, and direct access to the outside porches. 2 bedrooms have private full baths. 2 bedrooms have a shared full bath. There is a half bath in the hall near the bunk room. Plus, the full bath on the ground level. There is a tankless gas water heater that is designed to provide countless hot water for all 5 showers at the same time.

Tricks and tips for getting the best Wilmington, NC rental experience:

How to get the best value:

• To get the best value, consider changing your family's Wilmington, NC trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guides that include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning and choosing your Wilmington, NC rental home:

• Choose a group leader, select your dates, and select a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group needs. 5BR\/4.5 BA House,Holden Beach,Walk to Beach,On ICW, Pool, Dock, Sleeps12 has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the property management company before you book the vacation home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
• Is your family looking for special amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find your ideal rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask your host before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional pet fees or charges could be applied to your invoice.

During your stay:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Note any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, stereo or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent lots of difficulties.
• Respect your neighbors. 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! Residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental a final time and scan for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a excellent time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was wrong and they failed to address 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.
