The home has four floors of open flowing space in which to relax and appreciate beach living with your family. We just landscaped the back yard for family entertainment. Three hole Putting Green, corn-hole and outdoor cooking is ready for you.

Our home is well cleaned and CDC compliant.

There is an under counter second ice maker, SS Microwave, toaster oven, blender, wine glasses and all amenities for your family and friends.

The kitchen overlooks the two story great room with twenty feet of roomy picture windows facing westward over the back deck, and the canal waterway.

One of our favorite times on the deck is first thing in the morning with a cup of coffee, or towards dinner time with appetizers and a glass of wine - talking about your laid back day spent on the white sands at the beach, or round of golf, tennis pickleball, or fishing.

The Great room has a 65 inch Sony TV streaming YouTube TV with wireless internet for your convenience. Our internet service is Spectrum. DVD player is available and connected to the TV. There are TVs in two other bedrooms.

Convenient beach access with showers is just a short walk away - roughly 400 yards. Additionally, car and golf cart parking is available is desired or necessary. (Travelers can rent a golf cart on the island if desired).

There are many options for runners, and walkers while at OIB with sidewalks galore and natural walkways numerous miles long located on the East end inland. From our home, my favorite run is to take a Left on Second street, headed east then all the way down to the end of the island, turning toward the inter coastal and running to the gazebo. That is 2.2 miles. Then bring it back... If you run the 'point to point Island Run' from our driveway to the East end, then go all the way to the west end and back to our home, this is a 11 mile route.

Ocean Isle Recreation Park & Tennis is on Georgetown Road:
One mile north of the bridge. Turn there and go 1 mile for 8 hard surface tennis courts with windscreens and water there.
PICKLEBALL: OIB is all in and has six nice permanent pickleball courts just behind the tennis courts .
Nice kids's play area as well.: Brunswick County has more than 40 courses and this is before you get to the Myrtle Beach area. Our favorites are The Thistle, Panther's Run, Lions Paw, Carolina National GC, Crow Creek, Farmstead, Cape Fear National, the Pearl West, Sandpiper.

There are numerous fishing charters at Ocean Isle Beach for both inland (intracoastal inland) fishing or off shore fishing. Or bring your boat with you. the dock will accommodate a boat up to 28 feet.

Tips and Tricks to get the perfect Southport rental home experience:

Find your perfect vacation home:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Southport area magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides have money saving offers on local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Choosing the perfect rental home:

• Start by having your group commit to a vacation week and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. Unique Canal Home: Resort- Like Back Yard w Putting Green & Dock. has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, contact the host before reserving the home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property manager about pet restrictions before booking.
• If there's a certain Southport beach you simply love, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility amenities 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.

Additional considerations:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many issues.
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Protect your property!
• Make a record of any damages to the rental at check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are very helpful if there is a dispute.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected everything. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and look for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a wonderful stay? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
