Down a peaceful, wooded lane, this property charms with curb appeal from its white picket fence to its arbored drive and double porch facade. When you step up onto the first level's covered porch, you'll want to linger and rock as you savor the ocean's serenade and enchanting birdsong. Inside this reverse floor plan, the entryway welcomes with warm heart-of-pine floors and impressive wainscoting. To the right is a nautically-themed suite furnished with a Full and a Twin. Behind its pocket door is a full bath ensuite with a tub/shower. Down the hall, a bright Queen suite is appointed with a four poster bed and mirrored armoire. It also has its own private bath. At the end of the hall, another Queen suite, with two closets and its own full bath, accesses a peaceful back screened porch. This is the ideal spot for morning coffee wildlife watching or a salty-breeze afternoon nap. This floor also homes the laundry, a hall entrance to the screened porch and egress to the home's garage, where two golf carts (a six- and a four-passenger) are stored for guests' use.

Upstairs, the open floor plan's vaulted ceiling makes the most of all the sunshine coming in from four sides of windows. The cavernous living area is anchored by a decorative fireplace and provides entry to both the back screened dining porch and the home-length covered front porch. The close by granite drink station is conveniently located for calming refreshments inside or out. The adjacent dining space offers a table for eight with treetop vistas. Dine here or at the neighboring breakfast bar. The chef's kitchen features granite counters, stainless appliances, a double sink and plenty of storage cabinets. Close by is a half bath. Don't miss the King Owner's Suite also tucked onto this floor. Plan to be indulged with a spa-like bath, enormous closet and private screened-porch access. Once on that screened porch, it's just a short climb up the spiral staircase to the rooftop deck and its lavish vistas. Plus, with WWP, you get access to our 24/7 Property Manager Assistance Line-which means you can reach needed help even after hours or on weekends.

Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect Wilmington, NC rental home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• The earlier you can book, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Summer is high season in Bald Head Island. To get the best value, shift your trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and October offer warm temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of 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 extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitors guide magazines contain coupons for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

How to pick the perfect vacation rental in Bald Head Island:

• Start by choosing potential vacation weeks and a budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Gaze at the moon...and the sunrise and sunset from Moonview's rooftop deck! has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to work out which bed configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
• 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. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or charges may be applied to your invoice.
• Visiting for a specific event? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

More considerations:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental property while you are gone! Don't let crooks ruin your trip.
• At Check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors bothering your peaceful home life. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all personal belongings. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. 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 great vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect 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.
