Twin Tides Intracoastal waterway cottage w\/views of the ocean private dock &more - Vacation rental home in Wilmington, NC

About this Property

• Sleeps 10
• 4 Bedrooms
• 3 Bathrooms
• Private vacation home

Welcome to the Twin Tides 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 (upon request and review assuming un-rented and for an additional fee). This is not a duplex, this listing is for the entire home- we just happen to own the home next door also!

Looking for a family reunion? Book our Twin Tides Blue private home also. Vistas of the Atlantic Ocean can be seen from our freshly modernized property. 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 appreciate this coastal bungalow that looks like it came out of a novel.

Vistas of pristine non-developed Masonboro Island can be seen from the King and Queens private balcony or the semi 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, paddle board, swim, fish, or just relax if water sports aren’t your thing. We offer kayaks and paddle boards to make life a little easier.

A chefs dream kitchen featuring all sub-zero and wolf appliances, granite and wood floor throughout the home, and a true view from every room- including from the brand new air tub in the King and Queens bathroom. While you have vistas of the intracoastal waterway from the front of the home, appreciate back yard vistas of the marsh and all she has to offer. This property is on a peninsula which accepts these rare vistas. Few properties can have the both of best worlds- and we’re one of them!

Giant yard for your fur friends to get some exercise or go for a swim and a playground for your little ones. There is also a sandbar that appears at low-tide that kids (and our dog kids) appreciate. This is great for kids to catch a hermit crab or go clamming and experience some of the coastal lifestyle.

Outdoor bathroom and shower to conveniently wash off!

4 separate bedroom home:
Room 1: King Bed
Room 2: King Bed
Room 3: Queen Bed
Room 4: Two Twin Beds

The two rooms suited for kids share a huge Jack and Jill style tower-room: featuring, games, toys, and more to keep your little ones busy while getting a birds-eye view.

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

House has newly gotten more updating and newer furnishings since these photos were taken, we can't wait for you to see our getaway!

Tips to get the perfect Southport rental home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in coastal NC. Reserve your rental in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• The earlier you can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation rental up to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for specifics.
• Many rental management companies supply Southport area travel guide magazines which will include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Choose your dates and budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Twin Tides Intracoastal waterway cottage w\/views of the ocean private dock &more has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property management company before booking the vacation property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a pet-friendly rental. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Be sure you get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Put the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make certain damages are not linked to your stay, make note of any problem areas during check in. Call the rental manager immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific source for finding the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Just before checking out, take a final walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order 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.
