'Ocean Beach' resides at 21 Silversides Trail directly across the street from the beach on a cul-de-sac. WHAT A VIEW! We are midway down the South Beach, near the Maritime Market, fire station, boutique stores and nearly exactly between The Bald Head Island Club and The Shoals Club.

Our new home got a thorough going-over and is redecorated, repainted, and rebranded in the owners style. Our extravagant new linens is sure to please everybody. There are two master bedrooms, all four bedrooms have king beds with a twin in the upstairs master. Each bedroom has new 32' flat screen TVs.

Please remember to make reservations with the Bald Head Island Ferry to arrive and depart. Your ferry ticket also provides you with tram service but is not automatically added to tickets. Tram reservations require a distinct booking from the ferry to 21 Silversides Trail. Arrival may not be before 4 PM and Departure must be by 10 AM on the day of Departure.

Guests wishing optional Temporary Guest Memberships at The Bald Head Island Club and or The Shoals Club should contact them immediately upon booking our home. This is done by visiting their respective websites and following instructions for Guest Membership, there is an additional fee for each Club. The host has no responsibility in the Guest Membership quest other than assuring The Club(s) we are hosting a particular guest.

All linens and towels are supplied. We have wireless high speed internet service.

The view from the upper deck is just spectacular and accepts us to see from the Cape Fear River to Frying Pan Shoals. Dolphins are frequent visitors to 'our' beach and are effortlessly seen from all 3 porches.

In the garage you will find a 4 passenger and a 6 passenger golf cart. You MUST be a licensed driver to operate the golf carts on Bald Head Island. The shaded protected area that is the entry to our home, also serves as a place to escape the sun in one of the hammock. There is a sandy play area under the home for those little ones who have grown tired of our sun drenched beaches and a hot outside shower to get rid of the sand.

The Maritime Market is rather extraordinary considering they must bring everything to the Island on a barge. The selections are extremely good and the service is elegant.

Tips to get the very best Wilmington, NC vacation home experience:

Sticking to your budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Wilmington, NC area. Reserve your Wilmington, NC vacation home in Fall or Spring to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• 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 grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines contain coupons for local accommodations and attractions.

• Start by choosing your vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Oceanfront \/Spectacular Views\/\"OCEAN BEACH \" has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.

• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Just before checking out, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.

• Did your group have a excellent stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments.
