Loggerhead Landing is a 5 bedroom, 5.5 bath beachfront home with a roomy, completely equipped kitchen/dining area for family meals. 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 appreciate the same ocean vista and each opens out onto the upper covered porch. The upstairs bedrooms include a sizable 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 enormous 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 savor 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. There are two DVDs, cable 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.

Strategies for getting the best vacation rental experience:

Sticking to your rental home budget:

• Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal NC. To find the most suitable vacation home within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at Southport restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Booking websites usually offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area travel guides which often include coupons, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a partnership between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning and choosing the best Southport vacation home:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your vacation dates, and choose a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Loggerhead Landing--Beautiful oceanfront home with large private heated pool has 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking websites. Otherwise, contact the property management company before booking the vacation home. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds. You will need to work out which bed configuration is right for your family.
• Some properties allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the owner about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

More tips for your visit:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your phone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent lots of problems.
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Protect your property!
• During check-in, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are an excellent source for finding the best local attractions.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Re-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a great stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
