'Ocean Beach' resides at 21 Silversides Trail directly across the street from the beach on a cul-de-sac. WHAT A VIEW! We are midway down the South Beach, near the Maritime Market, fire station, boutique stores and nearly exactly between The Bald Head Island Club and The Shoals Club.

Our new home got a thorough going-over and is redecorated, repainted, and rebranded in the owners style. Our opulent new linens is sure to please everybody. There are two master bedrooms, and a third bedroom also has a king sized bed and private bath. The 'kids room' has two over-sized twins; that bedroom has its own bath as well. Each bedroom has new 32' flat screen TVs and DVD players.

Please remember to make reservations with the Bald Head Island Ferry to arrive and depart. Your ferry ticket also provides you with tram service from the ferry to 21 Silversides Trail.

All linens and towels are included. We have wireless high speed internet service and unlimited domestic long distance phone service.

The view from the upper deck is just spectacular and accepts us to see from the Cape Fear River to Frying Pan Shoals. Dolphins are frequent visitors to 'our' beach and are comfortably seen from all 3 porches.

In the garage you will find a 4 passenger and a 6 passenger golf cart. You MUST be a licensed driver to operate the golf carts on Bald Head Island. The shaded protected area that is the entry to our home, also serves as a place to escape the sun in one of the hammock. There is a sandy play area under the home for those little ones who have grown tired of our sun drenched beaches and a hot outside shower to get rid of the sand.

The Maritime Market is rather gorgeous considering they must bring everything to the Island on a barge. The selections are extremely good and the service is enchanting.

Tips to get the best Wilmington, NC rental home experience:

Getting the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Summer months are the most expensive season in Bald Head Island. Booking your Wilmington, NC vacation home in Spring or Fall is our favorite way to save money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked very early. Booking your vacation property up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC area magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides have deals for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Filter your rental search:

• Start by having your group commit to trip dates and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Oceanfront /Spectacular Views/New Renovation/OCEAN BEACH has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is often accessible online. Otherwise, contact the property management company before you book the property. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what configuration is optimal for your family.
• If there's a particular Wilmington, NC destination you long to visit, search for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental

Additional considerations:

• Add the host's contact information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• During arrival, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Be respectful. Frequently, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can typically help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would at home.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything at departure. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Property managers rely on great ratings to inspire more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
