Looking for gasp-worthy panoramas of the shimmering Atlantic? This four-bedroom, 4.5 bath Dudley Parker-constructed Executive getaway is perched up a wooded, winding drive-emerging above Bald Head's High Dune treetops to reveal spectacular seascapes. This home's first level offers very private front and side porches and, inside, its entry warmly welcomes. Off of the entryway are three suites-each including its own full, private bath with granite counters and tiled showers. The first two-a King and a Queen-are light-filled rooms with generous closets and storage. The third bedroom is furnished with two Twins and offers access to the front porch. Upstairs, a vaulted-ceiling open floor plan makes the most of its walls of windows by highlighting ocean panoramas extending from Frying Pan Shoals all the way down South Beach. The bright living space is anchored by a gas fireplace, features constructed-ins and extends egress to the home's piece-de-resistance-its deep, covered water-facing front and side porches. You'll spend contented hours here rocking while relishing shimmering seascapes and savoring snacks as well as salty breezes at the al fresco dining area. If inside meals are your preference, you'll still be surrounded by briny vistas at the generous, window-surrounded dining table. Nearby a granite breakfast bar offers even more seating. The gourmet kitchen serves up stainless appliances, plenty of storage and counter space and both water and forested dune vistas. Down the hall, the King Owner's suite features additional sunlit water perspectives, its own access to the upper porch, a private office and an oversize ensuite bath with a his/her vanity, a water closet, and a sizable sea-glass pebble/tiled shower. This level also homes the laundry and a half bath. Conveniently located near the Island's center-close to both the beach and stores and providing access to WWP's 24/7 Property Manager Assistance Line-which means you can reach needed help even after hours or on weekends, this gem is an ideal BHI haven. The elevator is not for guest use at this property.

How to book the best Bald Head Island vacation home experience:

Getting the most from your rental budget:

• June, July, and August are high season in the Southport area. To book the most suitable vacation home within budget, we strongly suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers often offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines contain deals for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Make a plan and choose your prefectvacation home:

• Choose your dates and maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Captain Tank's is a Grand 4BR\/4.5BA Dunes Ridge Getaway with Ocean Views! has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email the property management company before reserving your rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If there's a certain Southport attraction you crave, look for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the owner about pet restrictions before booking.

Additional considerations:

• Be sure you get the owner's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
• Make a record of any damages to the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are very helpful if there is a dispute.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable vacationers disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great beaches and attractions you would've not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a excellent vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
