Harbor House 2: Waterfront home on Silver Lake Harbor - Vacation rental home in Ocracoke, NC

About this Property

• Sleeps 6
• 2 Bedrooms
• 2 Bathrooms
• Apartment

The old home, Harbor House I, was a appeal, sitting low and snug against Silver Lake, filled with memories, and sunsets daily. But too snug it turned out... Dorian had her way and the old place sadly succumbed.
In her place, Harbor House II has risen, simple still, but made grander by its sunny openness. Made magical by its impressive vistas and relaxing sounds—sunsets and the constant lapping of Silver Lake. A deep-water dock and new decking bring the harbor nearer, more accessible. Hints of the old memories remain, but far more await to be made--all of them now elevated nine feet, safe from the wrath of future Dorians. This Saturday turn day property eases you into a vacation mindset by providing linens and towels for your stay.

Strategies to get the perfect vacation rental experience:

Getting the best rental value:

• The earlier you can book, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are reserved early. Reserving your rental property 6-12 months before your vacation is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Booking a rental in Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Ocracoke vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your group qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Often, property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Ocracoke area visitor guides which include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Ocracoke visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Start by having your family select date ranges and a spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Harbor House 2: Waterfront home on Silver Lake Harbor has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Ocracoke rental home search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is almost always accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property manager before booking your home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to work out what is right for your vacation group.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly property. Make sure to ask for information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific Ocracoke attraction you are enamored with, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

More tips for your visit:

• Add the owner's information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent lots of problems.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are away, just like you would back home.
• To make sure that damages are not linked to your visit, make a record of any problem areas during check in. E-mail the property manager immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Be respectful. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Leave feedback! Hosts rely on great feedback to stimulate future reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
