When the holiday blues creep up on you there’s no better way to handle them than right here in coastal North Carolina! Lots of people find it necessary to escape from the cold and snow each year during the long winter months. Almost always, vacationers discover coming here is exactly what they needed to get through the rest of the season. For others, they come to spend the entire winter and return home after the snow melts. That’s pretty close to a perfect life, we’d say.

We have many comfortable vacation home rentals that will begin lifting your spirits from the moment you walk through the front door. There are plenty of oceanfront rentals that will provide you with the opportunity to catch a sunrise from your deck each and every morning while enjoying breakfast and a long walk along the sunny shore every afternoon.

We know it’s tough for many people to endure those long winter months in the northern states and it seems like the older you are, the harder it gets. In many states across the country it’s rare that people ever see the sun during this time of year and too often when it is out it’s too cold to even enjoy the outdoors. Along the North Carolina coast the sun seems to almost always be shining and the temperatures are a long ways from cold as you know it. We invite you to come treat yourself to a stay in any one of our vacation home rentals.

Medically, sunshine is essential for our physical and emotional well being. It encourages our body to release serotonin, a chemical derived from the amino acids in our body’s tissues, that significantly improves our mood. It’s also our body’s main source of Vitamin D, which is essential for strong teeth and bones and the older you get the more important this is.
