Welcome to the Twin Tides II getaway. One of two of our unique side-by-side properties on the ICWW with a private pier and dock- with a slip available to our avid boaters. 180 vistas of the ICWW and Atlantic Ocean can be seen from double decker porches. Minutes away from Carolina Beach, the NC Fort Fisher Aquarium, the NC Battleship, golf courses or downtown Wilmington. This home spared no expense to really make it a getaway to visit time and time again. You will adore this peninsula property that sits on the edge of your own private heaven.

Vistas of pristine non-developed Masonboro Island can be seen from nearly every room of the home and the handsome wrap around porch. Savor your own private beach by kayak and make a day out of visiting Masonboro Island. Appreciate the pier and dock to play, swim, fish, or just relax if water sports aren’t your thing. Pier is shared with neighboring sister property.

Home features a master upstairs and downstairs. It also features a laundry room upstairs and downstairs making life easier while on vacation. While you have vistas of the intracoastal waterway from the front of the home, savor back yard vistas of the marsh and all she has to offer. This property is on the very end of a peninsula which accepts these rare vistas. Few properties can have the both of best worlds- and we’re one of them!

There is also a sandbar that appears at low-tide that kids appreciate. This is great for kids to catch a hermit crab or go clamming and experience some of the coastal lifestyle.

We have board games and toys and even a pack-n-play to try to accommodate all families.

Book our sister home, Twin Tides I, next door for a family reunion where you can expect the same great vistas and accommodations.

House has freshly gotten more updating and some newer furnishings has been added, but you can expect the same great quality. You will appreciate this peninsula paradise!!!!

Vacation rental tips and tricks:

Finding the best value:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental property up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your vacation home.
• Summer is high season in Wilmington. Booking in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if discounts are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Often, property management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guide magazines that include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning, picking, and booking the best Wilmington, NC rental home:

• Begin by choosing your vacation dates and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Twin Tides II has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before booking your rental. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches.
• Some properties allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the property manager about your furry family members before booking.
• Visiting for a specific attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Tips for a great stay:

• Add the property manager's phone number to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• During check-in, record any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a terrific resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget any personal items. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a terrific time? Many rental managers make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
