The home accommodates 10 guests and is not rented to events bigger than 10. There is a spectacular living area adjacent to the kitchen-with both the kitchen and the living room featuring expansive ocean vistas. The three upstairs bedrooms savor the same ocean vista and each opens out onto the upper covered porch. The upstairs bedrooms include a enormous master bedroom with a king bed and an adjoining bathroom, and two other bedrooms with queen beds both of which have adjoining bathrooms. In addition to the 3 bedrooms and 3 baths on the second floor, there is also a sizable upstairs living area with a TV. There is also a laundry room with a washer and dryer on the second floor. Both huge downstairs bedrooms have adjoining full baths. One of the bedrooms has a queen bed, the other bedroom has a bunk bed with the bottom bunk being a queen bed and the top bunk being a twin XL bed.They are both sizable, airy bedrooms and have a view of the salt marsh across the road.
The home has two huge covered porches on the ocean side. The porches are sprinkled with comfortable chairs to relax in. The photos show the view of the beach and oceanscape from the porches. The home faces due south so that the porches provide shade during the heat of the day. There is a sizable sun exposed porch on the ocean side of the home that is ideal for sunbathing while basking in the sea breeze with a unobstructed ocean view.
The beach is steps from the home so there is no tiring walk for young kids before they get to appreciate the fine sand and the ocean waves. The beach itself is typically very uncrowded as the home is located on a narrow section of the island, and there is only one home behind it on the second row. The beach itself is wide, with plenty of room even at high tide. There is no close by public beach access.
The 12x25 ft heated pool was added in 2017 and is located on the ocean side of the home. The pool itself is large, with an broad deck that offers shade and sun. The pool will be a hit with the kids during the day, and with the adults as the sun goes down. A new PVC pool deck was added in 2022.
This home was previously rented as Loggerhead Landing by the current owner and a business partner who was newly bought out. The current owner has been renting the home on Vacation Rental By Owner since 2014.
We have named the property Loggerhead Landing in honor of one of the types of sea turtles that nest every year on Holden Beach. Perhaps you will see a nest with freshly laid eggs one morning when you are walking along the miles long strand at Holden Beach. The pier is about one and a half miles east of the home.
The home has plenty of electronics with a flat screen TV in each bedroom as well two others in the upstairs and downstairs living areas. Each TV is either a intelligent TV or has a ROKU. The home also has YouTube TV and WiFi
There is a charcoal grille at the home. Cleaning and pool heating in season is supplied in the rental price. Sheets and towels are not supplied. The home is on pilings and is not wheelchair accessible. Although the home is listed as pet complimentary, our family trains service dogs and the home may have dog dander. It would not be appropriate for families that have a member with dog sensitivity. The home rents Saturday-Saturday with check in time 4 PM and check out time of 10 AM.
Several improvements have been made before the 2022 season. These improvements include painting the exterior of the home, new floor throughout the downstairs, a new PVC pool deck, new clothes dryer, new dishwasher, new refrigerator, and a new hot water heater.

Tricks and tips to get the optimal Wilmington, NC rental experience:

Sticking to a spending plan:

• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Book your Wilmington, NC vacation in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. 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 family and friends at the beach.
• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines have coupons for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Selecting the best rental home in the Wilmington, NC area:

• Select a group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Loggerhead Landing--Beautiful oceanfront home with large private heated pool has 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is commonly available on booking pages. If not, call the host before reserving the rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some properties allow pets, but others do not. Allowable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Add the host's information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Document any issues with the property during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are assessed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of issues.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your peaceful home life. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let burglars spoil your trip.
• Just prior to departing, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget anything. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Most rental managers make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective 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.
