This traditional five-bedroom, four-bath home beckons you to relax on its covered rocking chair front porch and breathe in salty breezes or nap in the swaying hammock. Inside you'll find open living spaces boasting hardwoods and loads of light from the skylights above the two-story ceiling. The comfortable gathering area, anchored by a decorative fireplace, is just across from the dining space. Savor your meals-with-a-water-view or step out onto the attached screen porch for a snack or coffee. The adjacent kitchen has a impressive wooden breakfast bar that seats four, loads of granite counter space and stainless appliances. It is backed by a roomy pantry/laundry room. If alfresco dining is your enjoyment, scoot out the home's French doors onto the covered porch and step down to an oversize dining deck-the ideal spot to appreciate a good meal AND Mother Nature.

This level also homes an ocean-view Queen with private front porch access and a bunk room with three twins. These share a granite-tiled bath with a glassed bench shower.

Upstairs-in another bright, airy space accented by skylights-is a sitting area with a daybed. Unwind here or just outside on the sundeck and soak up rays as well as the spectacular seascape. This floor features two King Owner suites. The first showcases ocean vistas and provides private deck access, a vaulted ceiling, a huge walk-in closet and a delightful ensuite. The second also offers private ocean deck access along with a sitting area, constructed-ins, a walk-in closet and a generous ensuite. Above the two-cart garage is the crofter. This very private space provides yet another suite with two Twins, sitting area and full bath.

Additional amenities include use of two golf carts, an outdoor shower and a central location convenient to the clubs, stores and the Conservancy and WWP's 24/7 Property Manager Assistance Line-which means you can reach needed help even after hours or on weekends.

Tips and Tricks for getting the perfect rental experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• To book the most suitable rental within budget, we recommend reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at Brunswick area restaurants, beaches, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are reserved early. Reserving your vacation property up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local information, visitor guide magazines contain offers and deals for local shops and restaurants.

Narrow your rental Search:

• Begin by choosing a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Salty Dog exudes relaxed beach vibes and delights with awesome ocean vistas. has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property owner before you reserve the rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, search for a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.

During your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed backup.
• Make a record of any damages to the property during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call prevents many difficulties.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers 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! Locals can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental property while you're out! Don't let crooks spoil your holiday.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did you have a great time? Many rental managers make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental and/or property management company 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 described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
