Emily's Ideal Day Beach House at 23 Cumberland St. provides a great setting to have a ideal day, every day. The back of Emily's Ideal Day is directly fronted on a canal waterway. These canals are manmade. Some of the older canals have natural edges, and the newer ones have nicer concrete sides to them. 23 Cumberland is on one of the concrete canals, with deep water, and can handle boat travel, even at low tide. This canal waterway is tied into the Intracoastal Waterway a short distance away. At Ocean Isle Beach, there is a “beach access” street every multiple blocks. The town of Ocean Isle was very thoughtful in setting up tons of beach accesses with parking, unlike most, if not all of the other close by beaches. Cumberland Street is one street over from beach access Goldsboro St. in a peaceful part of the island that does not get many “daytrippers” and 1.2 miles from the island center. The 23 Cumberland is about 400 yards from the beach, but the supplied golf cart is a delight. You can park it right at the beach access. This is a spectacular home that is very generously appointed throughout and will provide a very pleasant setting for you and your family to create a memorable vacation.

The master suite also has a private covered porch overlooking the canal waterway.

Our top Vacation rental home tips:

Finding your perfect rental:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked early. Reserving your rental up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Ocean Isle Beach. To find the best value, consider changing your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Some owners offer rate reductions for veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guide magazines contain deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Planning and picking the perfectvacation home:

• Start by having your family agree to a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Exquisite-CanalWaterfront,5br\/5.5ba Elevator HTub GolfCart,PPong,all includedWOW has 5 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is often available online. If not, contact the property manager before reserving your home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the owner about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's a certain Wilmington, NC destination you love, look for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.

Tips for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Upon arrival, make note of any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
