Down a peaceful, wooded lane, this property charms with curb appeal from its white picket fence to its arbored drive and double porch façade. When you step up onto the first level's covered porch, you’ll want to linger and rock as you appreciate the ocean’s serenade and enchanting birdsong. Inside this reverse floor plan, the entry welcomes with warm heart-of-pine floors and handsome wainscoting. To the right is a nautically-themed suite furnished with a Full and a Twin. Behind its pocket door is a full bath ensuite with a tub/shower. Down the hall, a bright Queen suite is appointed with a four poster bed and mirrored armoire. It also has its own private bath. At the end of the hall, another Queen suite, with two closets and its own full bath, accesses a relaxing back screened porch. This is the ideal spot for morning coffee wildlife watching or a salty-breeze afternoon nap. This floor also homes the laundry, a hall entrance to the screened porch and egress to the home’s garage, where two golf carts (a six- and a four-passenger) are stored for guests’ use.

Upstairs, the open floor plan’s vaulted ceiling makes the most of all the sunshine coming in from four sides of windows. The cavernous living area is anchored by a decorative fireplace and provides entry to both the back screened dining porch and the home-length covered front porch. The close by granite drink station is conveniently located for calming refreshments inside or out. The adjacent dining space offers a table for eight with treetop vistas. Dine here or at the neighboring breakfast bar. The chef’s kitchen features granite counters, stainless appliances, a double sink and plenty of storage cabinets. Close by is a half bath. Don’t miss the King Owner’s Suite also tucked onto this floor. Plan to be indulged with a spa-like bath, enormous closet and private screened-porch access. Once on that screened porch, it’s just a short climb up the spiral staircase to the rooftop deck and its excellent vistas. To feel “over the moon” about your next vacation, you’ll want to stay at Moonview.

Bald Head Island vacation rental tips and tricks:

How to get the best value:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best value, change your group's vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer pleasant weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Booking websites usually offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Often, property management companies supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guides that include money-saving offers, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Gaze at the the sunrise and sunset from Moonview's rooftop deck! has 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available on booking websites. Otherwise, call the property management company before reserving the vacation home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or charges might be applied to your agreement.

• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let crooks ruin your family vacation.
• Record any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be useful if a dispute arises.

• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• On check-out day, take a walk-through to make sure you haven't forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from 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.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent feedback to drive new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation rental. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
