Located between two unspoiled beaches in the Cape Fear Station of Bald Head Island, NC--Our home offers a peaceful and modern hideaway from everyday life. It is located in the enchanting maritime forest with simple access to two pristine beaches and the Bald Head Island conservancy.

This location offers guests the opportunity to experience nature and still appreciate refreshed amenities. You will have painless access to miles of hiking, cycling and running trails. If you wish, the option to purchase temporary membership at the close by opulent Shoals Club is also available.

When you arrive, swing open the white-picket fence and walk down the cozy boardwalk toward the Nantucket-inspired bungalow. On the way, there is an outdoor shower and access to a "tree home" style guest bungalow with a queen-size bed and ensuite. At the main home, the screened in porch offers a place to play cards, savor thoughtful conversation, breathe in the salty, fresh air, and listen to the symphony of nature--tree frogs, calming surf, and cicadas guaranteed. Al fresco dining an option. Gas-grille available.

Enter a welcoming kitchen with stainless steel appliances connected to an intimate dining area which comfortably seats 6 (including a comfortable constructed-in window seat).

Pass by the constructed-in bookcase to a cavernous family room with sizable windows, light wood floors, and flat screen TV. Oak furnishings, a cozy sectional couch, and a whimsical wicker coffee table invite you to relax after a hard day of play.

Upstairs offers, two bedrooms (each with private bathrooms) and washing machine & dryer. One king-size bed and one queen-size bed.

The front porch has access to a calming boardwalk to enjoy nature among palmettos, a community gazebo, ancient oaks, and Spanish moss. Follow the sounds of the surf and experience a spectacular sunrise on East Beach. Or check-out the educational programs available at the Nature Conservancy. The sea turtles are their specialty!

Our top Bald Head Island vacation rental tips and tricks:

Finding the best rental value:

• The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable properties are reserved very early. Reserving your vacation home up to 12 months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and book your rental home.
• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To book the largest rental home within budget, we suggest booking in Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Owners sometimes offer discounts for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually 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 catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guides that include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting and booking the perfect Carolina Beach vacation home:

• Select a group lead, select your dates, and select a spending budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration your family needs. Welcome to High Tides and Good Vibes has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Carolina Beach vacation rental search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property owner before you book your rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what bed configuration is best for your group.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a property that allows animals. Ask for information on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.

More tips for your stay:

• We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
• Note any issues with the rental during 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 useful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything at check-out. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a wonderful time? Many rental managers make it easy for guests to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property manager was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
