When entering the entryway of the main home of this recent remodel, you'll immediately appreciate its pristine hardwoods and chic shiplap. The first floor is occupied by a King suite whose back wall of glass doors frames million-dollar ocean aspects.

The charming, freshly refreshed full bath provides both bedroom and hall entrances. A laundry completes this floor. Take the handsome staircase to the airy, surprisingly roomy second level's open floor plan which is surrounded on three sides by windows spotlighting broad, mesmerizing waterscapes that feel close enough that you could dip your fingers into the salty water.

This floor also features a sleek bayed dining space hugged by windows and a modern kitchen with luxe Café appliances. The floating stairs to the third floor are sided by windows looking at Bald Head Marina's lavish yachts. At the top, the vaulted, window-ensconced King Master sanctuary furnishes 200+ degree birds' eye scenes showcasing Old Baldy, Bald Head's marsh/estuary and the marina, as well as ocean/river panoramas. Its Euro-flavored ensuite finishes the main home in style. The home's third bedroom and bath are located close by in a detached crofter, accepting additional privacy for those who seek it.

How to find the best rental experience:

How to get the best value:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in coastal NC. Booking in Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guides have coupons for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Start by having your group commit to trip dates and a spending budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Starboard is one of the Bald Head's iconic towers in the Island's prestigious Harbour Village. has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is usually accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the property owner before booking the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask your host about pets before booking.
• Are you looking for specific amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

More considerations for your visit:

• Be sure you get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home. Store the manager's information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many difficulties.
• Lock your rental property while you're out! Don't let crooks spoil your trip.
• Record any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute arises.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the property to confirm you've collected everything. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on good feedback to inspire more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation rental. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
