Welcome to Bobby’s Beach Barn, a private home located in a relaxing family neighborhood.

This bungalow has been freshly refreshed in 2022 with new floor, bathroom faucets, light fixtures, furnishings and more. It also has 3 comfortable beds (1 King / 2 Queen), 3 Samsung intelligent TVs, a Bluetooth stereo receiver, 5G WIFI and full-size washer/dryer. Plus there’s a giant deck, outdoor shower and a beach cart you're welcome to use.

Sip your morning coffee calming in an Adirondack chair on the shady deck. Catch a nap in one of our hammocks. And bring your bicycles because the bicycle path (1/2 block away) takes you to wooded trails, close by eateries, mini-golf, a wine shop and much more. Take a family walk to the beach with your eyes peeled for whitetail deer that roam around the neighborhood at dusk.

Our beach bungalow has been in the family since 1982. Your host has spent many childhood summers and countless vacations as a grownup in Emerald Isle. He will be happy to share his local tips with you. In fact, here’s a start: Slow down, disconnect, and don’t forget to reapply. :)

Tips and Tricks to get the best Crystal Coast vacation property experience:

Get the best rental home value:

  • Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
  • Summer months are the most expensive season in the Crystal Coast area. Reserve your vacation in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
  • Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
  • Property management companies frequently offer customers an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
  • Often, rental management companies supply Crystal Coast area travel guides which often include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

  • Begin by selecting the best vacation week and a maximum budget.
  • Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Family beach cottage poised between the ocean, hiking, biking, eateries & shops has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
  • Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is regularly available online. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before booking your home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish what configuration is optimal for your trip.
  • Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.
  • If there's an individual Crystal Coast beach you crave, browse homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
  • Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

Tips for your stay:

  • Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
  • Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of difficulties.
  • Lock your vacation home while you're away. Keep your property safe!
  • Note any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
  • Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your quiet neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would have never otherwise known!
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
  • Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Walk through the rental a final time and look for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
  • Did your group have a terrific time? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
