**The home, on an individual case basis IS considered for a event or event destination for an ADDITIONAL CHARGE and event specific contract. Bridal events, weddings, receptions, conferences, etc. are all reviewed and supplied with respective added cost and consideration by the owners on a case-by-case basis. If interested in additional details, feel complimentary to inquire directly!

Pleasure Island (Carolina Beach, Kure Beach, and Fort Fisher) has become a RAPIDLY increasing vacation (and full-time!) destination for the East coast and beyond for many reasons. Because we are in fact a true island, our "max. capacity" and restricted parking options will always limit the number of visitors who can both rent on and visit our Island! It’s a family-aligned beach with a touch of everything one might be looking for! It’s an AMAZING place to visit, live, and never leave!

The chateau lies directly in the middle of both Carolina and Kure Beaches and is a long walk or short drive from downtown Carolina Beach and everything that is has to offer. In Carolina Beach you’ve got the boardwalk, eateries, and local stores of all kinds. If you like adventures, the marina is also there where you can take an offshore fishing trip, diving excursion, or event boat out for a sunset sail. Camping more your thing? Bring the 4X4 and drive (and camp) on the beach at Freeman Park, located on the North End of the island. You can also head down to Kure Beach and fish directly off their fishing pier compete with bait, tackles, and more! The Carolina Beach Lake is close by, hosting a weekly Farmer’s Market every Saturday, FIREWORKS every Thursday, and outdoor summer movies on Sunday’s (on a enormous inflatable screen in the middle of the lake!). We welcome you to sit back, relax and appreciate yourselves because that's exactly what the beach is for!

Spanning the entire width of a double lot (a typical luxury home sits on a lot of 50'x100') this 100' x 100' ocean front home features some of the most beautiful and iconic expansive vistas of the Atlantic Ocean afforded by Pleasure Island. There are three levels of decks, porches, and balconies to ensure every guest and visitor a front row seat to our striking coastline.

The home itself affords guests 6 bedrooms and 6.5 baths (one on EVERY floor including the garage level) that will comfortably accommodate a max. event of 17. Guests are encouraged to follow all respective social distancing recommendations in order to protect themselves and others during these unprecedented times.

One the ground floor sits a four car garage with its own full bath (bathroom #1) along with an external entrance to the rear patio and your private beach access. This makes it simple to hit those waves and wash off the salt and sand prior to your next stop into the chalet. Ascend next to first floor (or another) of the home using either the staircase, or the homes elevator to assist with accommodating differing needs.

The first floor and main floor of the home features a number of different points of interest. Bedrooms #1 and #2 sit towards the northwestern most point of the floor. Bathrooms #2 and the half bath reside on this floor. To the south sits the game room complete with a Brunswick table and TV to savor some friendly competition when not hitting the waves and catching some sun. Because of the uncanny width of the home, every room from bedroom #2, to the dining room, the living room all the way through the game room ALL have accesses to the rear porch and corresponding private boardwalk directly to the beach.

Outside on the rear deck sits countless chairs from rockers, to Adirondack, to swings so that every seat is the "best seat" in the "home". The deck features a huge BBQ, enough space to host your entire event, and expansive vistas across spanning the horizon.

In the center of the first floor sits a huge open kitchen and accompanying dining area overlooking an expanse of contiguous expansive ocean vistas. Just off the kitchen (complete with its own separate wet bar, bar sink, additional chest freezer, cabinetry and counter space) sits the sizable living room complete with a 75" intelligent TV along with enough WIFI coverage for and devices. The home is equipped with a reverse osmosis/charcoal filtration system via an added faucet at the kitchen sink to allow a high caliber supply of fresh drinking water! A separate family room towards the front of the first floor entrance is tucked away for those looking to share a smaller conversation space a little further away from the primary living room. Opposite the front door are two bathrooms, one full and one half bath.

Ascending up to the second floor sits bedrooms #3, #4, and #5 along with three full baths (one per bedroom). The master bedroom has an upsized bath and is equipped with both a shower stall and a soaker tub. The two oceanfront suites (#3 and #4) allow separate access to a shared expansive ocean view balcony to make a prompt escape to once your morning coffee is picked up downstairs. A laundry room is located in the entryway between suites #3 and #4. Suite #5, located on the eastern side of the home, in lieu of having balcony access, has vistas of both Lake Park Blvd S. and an additional calming area... a good spot to share some after hours laughs and conversation.

Ascending up to the third floor as you stare down at the chandelier as you pass, rests the sixth and final bedroom. Both bath #6 and Bedroom #6 features a creative layout of 6 beds throughout the roughly 750 square feet. A bunk, and 5 twin beds sit staggered creatively throughout the room. Two of the beds are in upsized "closets" of sort. Think "Harry Potter"! Capping off the pinnacle of the home is a third floor balcony accepting you to see an interrupted horizon for miles. It's definitely impressive. Comfort, memorable vistas, and lasting memories await each guest that stays with us at The Snows Cut Chalet. We hope to host you and your event as guests in this historically significant oceanfront home as a get-a-way for years to come!

Other things to note

*** The property has multiple ring security cameras onsite outside in order to both protect the home and guests, as well as to ensure it is being utilized appropriately (ie. a family reunion in lieu of a bridal event). If, as deemed necessary, a virtual remote "check-in" by the owner is considered an invasion of privacy, we apologize. We simply wish to be completely transparent. Our/the owners intentions would NEVER be to invade privacy but simply deter from ineligible uses. Please contact us directly for any further clarification :) ***

Pool: The pool is heated year-round. **However, ** the environmental temperature will impact the operation and abilities of a heated exterior pool. The pools heating begins @8AM and ends @ 8PM. If the ambient temp is 55 degrees or below, the temp (per Pool Company) will be too cold for the heater to operate. If over 55, the pools temp can generally range from 65-75 based on weather conditions and owner thermostat settings. If cold out but warms within the range of operation, it can take up to 24 hours to warm a pool of this size 10 degrees. Just some added insight and bits to help meet expectations!

Getting the best vacation rental experience:

Getting the best rental home value:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To find the best value, shift your trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your family.
• Property management companies often offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines have money saving offers on local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Choosing and booking a perfectrental:

• Choose a group leader, select your dates, and select a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your group requires. The Snow's Cut Chateau has 6 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available on booking pages. If not, reach out to the property manager before booking the property. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to work out what bed configuration is optimal for your vacation family.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or charges might be applied to your agreement.
• If there's a particular Wilmington, NC destination you simply love, keep an eye out for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

• Add the property manager's phone number to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Record any damages to the property at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are an excellent source for finding the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• On check-out day, complete a final walk-through to make sure you have not forget anything. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on good feedback to drive future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
