Harmony Cottage is a four bedroom, 4.5 bath oceanside sanctuary centrally located on Bald Head Island. From its shaded rocking-chair porch, you enter this gorgeous getaway and are immediately drawn to its back wall of glass showcasing unobstructed panoramas of the Atlantic (sweeping all the way to Frying Pan Shoals). Inside, the open floor plan takes advantage of not only the scenery, but also the warm, natural light. The comfortable living area is anchored by a decorative fireplace and offers games, books and a sizable flat screen TV. Savor the vistas from here or step through to the covered beachfront back porch and linger while you relish the sunshine and watch the dolphins play. Step down to your private boardwalk and take the very short journey to the sand.
Back inside, the well-appointed dining space's unique chandeliers and oyster candlesticks are but two of the tasteful decorator touches you'll savor. You can have your meals at the dining area's table for ten or munch alfresco on the adjacent waterfront screened porch. The cheerful kitchen features a breakfast bar, stainless appliances, granite counters, a pantry and is convenient to the laundry room and a half bath.
This floor also homes the generous King Master with its own beach perspectives, private access to the ocean porch, two closets and a pampering bath with a enormous tiled shower, dual vanities, a water closet and a sunken tub.
Upstairs, you're greeted by another bright gathering space with a cove ceiling. It's ideal for cozy conversations, late-nighttime movie watching, peaceful reading or even a nap! This level is also home to three more suites. The first is a bunk room with twin bunk beds and a separate twin with a twin trundle. It affords water scenes, tons of constructed-ins and its own private bath. The second is a sunny Queen suite delighting with shining seascapes through its Palladian window and provides a full bath which also has hall access. The third suite is very cavernous and also proffers a Queen with relaxing ocean tableaus and a private full bath. All bedrooms are equipped with cooling ceiling fans.
Featuring brand-new raw pecan hardwoods throughout and located just mins. from stores, clubs and the Conservancy, a stay at Harmony Cottage includes the use of two golf carts, a hammock, a gas grille, beach towels and includes WWP's our 24/7 Property Manager Assistance Line-which means you can reach needed help even after hours or on weekends.

Booking the best vacation home experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a Bald Head Island rental home:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Booking your vacation home in Fall or Spring months is our best tip for saving money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property managers frequently offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides have money saving offers on local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

• Select your vacation dates and budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Harmony Cottage is a 4 BR\/ 4.5 BA Oceanfront Retreat! has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is almost always accessible online. Otherwise, call the host before booking the rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to work out what bed configuration is right for your family.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Advice for a great stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would back home.
• To make sure that damages aren't attributed to your stay, inspect for any problem areas upon your arrival. Contact the rental manager right away to report your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your life at home. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• At departure, complete a walk-through to confirm you have not leave anything behind. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a excellent time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
