(4BR/4BA,1K/2Q/3Tw/2BB, SLP 11, 2 golf carts, Sunday Turn in Peak, CHECK OUT 10:00AM / CHECK IN 5:30PM) Recently constructed, Moondance delights with its designer touches!

Located in charming Cape Fear Station, this sanctuary charms from your first glance at the curb through its rooftop deck. Enter through the white picket-fenced yard to the first story of this reverse-floor plan home. You'll delight in its special touches-warm wooden floors, shiplapped walls and ceilings and sliding barn doors. On the first level you will find a comfortable TV den, laundry room and two bedrooms. The first bedroom is a King Owner's Suite with a impressive and private full bath ensuite. The second is a bunk room which uses the full bath just outside its door.

Out the side entrance on this floor is a forested deck, with grille, that offers a peaceful spot to commune with nature and bridges the main home with the crofter. The crofter provides serenity and inspired touches. Its screened porch is highlighted by a hanging swing where you can while away the hours calming and appreciating ocean lullabies. Inside, this Queen suite is furnished not only with a Queen bed but also with a hanging trundle and provides a full ensuite bath. It's ideal for a modest family.

Back in the main home, the bright, open second level awes with its vaulted, beamed ceilings and walls of windows that let you savor tree-top living. The gourmet kitchen's granite counters and high-end stainless appliances gleam and beckon chefs, and would-be chefs, to appreciate creating culinary delights. Beyond the kitchen's generous island-that offers plenty of prep room as well as a breakfast bar for four-is a enormous dining table seating ten and accented by an eye-catching shell chandelier. You can eat at either of these spaces or savor al fresco dining on the close by screened porch. Flowing from the dining area is the sizable, open gathering space which features a roomy wrap-around couch, TV and decorative fireplace. This spot is ideal for conversation or game-playing. Like the lower level, the upstairs is highlighted by wooden floors, shiplap and sand- and water-colored accents. This level also includes another Queen bedroom as well as a enchanting full bath.

Be sure not to miss the outdoor spiral stairs, just outside of the kitchen, that lead to the rooftop deck. This is not only a very private sunbathing getaway but also offers killer vistas of Frying Pan Shoals, East Beach and South Beach AND a hot tub! Relish your morning coffee here while taking in the sunrise or enjoy an afternoon libation from your own expansive perch. Moondance's other amenities include the use of two golf carts-a four-passenger and a six-passenger, an outdoor shower, bicycles, beach towels and beach chairs nd access to WWP's 24/7 Property Manager Assistance Line-which means you can reach needed help even after hours or on weekends. For a vacation that will have you feeling like dancing on the moon, stay at Moondance!

Tips for getting the best Bald Head Island vacation home experience:

Get the best rental value:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Bald Head Island. To get the most suitable rental home within your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Ask your property manager if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach area magazine upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines contain deals for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Finding the perfect rental home:

• To start, have your group decide on vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your family needs. Moondance delights with designer touches and rooftop hot tub! has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available online. Otherwise, email the host before you book your home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to establish what bed configuration is right for your group.
• Traveling with pets? 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 thoroughly! Pet fees or might be applied to your agreement.
• If there's a particular Carolina Beach destination you love, search for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Additional considerations:

• Get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of issues.
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Note any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be valuable if there is a dispute.
• Be respectful. Often, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Double-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on good ratings to inspire new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
