Imagine ending your day with a beautiful sunset over the Intracoastal Waterway, the gentle sway of boats in the distance, and a warm ocean breeze filling the air at your own "Little Beach" replete with Adirondack chairs to help you relax and wind down. If that sounds like your ideal hideaway, then “Bresnahan Upper Level” is calling your name! This top-floor sound-front townhouse on gorgeous Banks Channel offers unparalleled water vistas, direct access to boating adventures, and a prime location just a short walk from the beach, Oceanic Restaurant, Crystal Pier, a striking coffee shop, and a local surf shop.

From the moment you step inside, you’ll be captivated by the broad wall-to-wall windows that flood the living area with natural light, creating a seamless connection to the spectacular waterway. Whether you’re watching boats drift by from the comfortable living room or calming on the cavernous deck, you’ll have a front-row seat to all the beauty and excitement of Wrightsville Beach. The inviting couch doubles as a queen sleeper, providing additional space for guests, while a conveniently located half bath ensures privacy and comfort.

The well-appointed kitchen, with its generous counter space, makes meal prep a breeze—especially when paired with the calming sight of the water just beyond. And for a sweet summer treat, an ice cream maker is supplied to create delicious homemade desserts after a sun-filled day.

The primary bedroom is a private getaway, featuring a plush king bed and an en suite bathroom for added convenience. Down the hall, two elegantly furnished queen bedrooms offer a cozy and restful ambiance, while the fourth bedroom with two twin beds is ideal for younger family members. A shared full bathroom in the hallway also homes the washer and dryer—an essential perk for extended stays.

For those who adore the water, this home is really heaven. The shared dock, located just across Waynick Boulevard, provides the ideal spot to soak in the sunset or launch your next boating adventure. With a dedicated boat slip accommodating vessels up to 22 feet, you can bring your boat, pack your gear, and discover Wrightsville Beach from a whole new perspective.

Whether you’re here for days filled with boating, beachcombing, riding one of our cruiser bicycles, or simply unwinding on the deck with a drink in hand, “Bresnahan Upper Level” offers the ultimate waterfront getaway.

Strategies for getting the perfect Wrightsville Beach rental home experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Summer months are high season in Wrightsville Beach. To book the best rental home within your budget, we recommend booking in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Wrightsville Beach attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wrightsville Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites often offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines contain discounts for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

How to choose the best rental home:

• Choose vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Boat Friendly Townhouse on Sound with Dock has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wrightsville Beach vacation rental search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is normally available online. If they are not listed, email the property owner before you book the home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are included before booking
• Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your smartphone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Make a record of any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately contact the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, intercom or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent many difficulties.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let thieves ruin your family vacation.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and scan for any damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great reviews to propel more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
