Welcome to A Summer Fling, freshly featured on Season Four of HGTV's Battle on the Beach as Team Ty Pennington's home! Previous guests of the property will do a double take when they walk into this pretty home after renovations finished in early 2024. Upon entering the home, guests' eyes will go upward to the charming wooden beams lining the vaulted ceiling before meandering to take in the other rustic, wooden accents throughout.

With granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and enough kitchen supplies to provide for your entire family, this impressive kitchen will make you want to stay in and prepare every meal - seating is available for eight guests to dine.

The living space provides enough seating for the entire family and overlooks the sand and sun. Sit back and relax as you watch your favorite show on the flat-screen T.V.. Walk out the ocean side door to experience the salty breeze off the Atlantic Ocean from under the covered porch. After a day on the beach, rinse off the sand with ease in the enclosed outdoor shower.

There are three bedrooms, two of which have a sliding glass door leading to the oceanfront porch. The bunk room sleeps two comfortably. Please note the dimensions of the top bunk are modest and are constructed for your tiny little adventurer!

The game room is ideal for an evening of family fun. When the kids go to bed it can turn into a bar and lounge for leisurely card games. Painted a forest green, the ambiance is very alluring to creatives alike! With four comfortable chairs, this round table seats four.

Convenient to local eateries, stores, parks and attractions. Whether your idea of a vacation is taking long naps in the island breeze, exploring local landmarks or teeing up for 18 holes at one of the area's playable but challenging golf courses, you will find your island home at A Summer Fling!

Tricks and tips to get the very best Wilmington, NC vacation rental experience:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To get the most suitable vacation home within budget, we suggest booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular Wilmington, NC attractions. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites frequently offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitors guide magazines have offers and deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Choose vacation week and budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. A Summer Fling: Gorgeous Vintage Coastal Home with Game Room has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts is generally available on booking pages. Otherwise, email or call the property manager before booking your rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or may be applied to your contract.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. .

Additional considerations:

• Get the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your . Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let thieves ruin your family vacation.
• Note any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if there is a dispute.
• Be respectful. Often, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a excellent vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
