The oval table comfortably seats six for family meals or game nighttime, with additional barstool seating for five at the kitchen counter.

Each of the four bedrooms provides its own TV, so no one has to miss their favorite show! The second level also features a modest lounge room equipped with a twin-daybed and twin trundle, and creates a flexible space for reading, peaceful conversation, or additional sleeping quarters.

Savor your favorite cup of coffee on the covered deck while watching the sunrise. Share memorable moments when spending quality time with adored ones in this charming home. Listen to the waves crash as you breathe in the crisp island air. Whatever your reason for a hideaway, Shady Lady has it all!

How to get the best Wilmington, NC rental experience:

Finding the best rental value:

• The earlier you can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are booked early. Booking your vacation rental six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property managers frequently offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Many management companies supply Wilmington, NC area travel guide magazines that include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to choose and book your prefectrental:

• Start by choosing your a vacation week and a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. The Shady Lady: Spacious 4 Bed\/2 Bath Ocean View Home with Open Floorplan has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property manager before booking the rental. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a rental that allows animals. Request details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking

More considerations for your visit:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would at home.
• To ensure that damages are not attributed to your family's visit, record any problem areas during arrival. text the property manager immediately to relay any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers bothering your peace and quiet. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and attractions you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all personal items. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a terrific vacation? Most rental home management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order 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.
