For simple unloading of your traveling essentials, pull into the cavernous 2 car garage. A great place to store any of the beach toys you brought along.

Imagine appreciating your morning coffee on the front porch in this peaceful neighborhood as you plan the day’s activities. The living area has tons of natural light & comfortable seating. With the flick of a switch, savor the ambiance of a fire any season of the year. Watch your favorite shows on the TV or bring home movies on DVD to relive old memories as you make new ones. Learn about the local area through the artwork & acclaimed NC artist William Mangum’s coffee table book.

The entirely equipped open kitchen (including Toaster Oven, Mixer, & Blender) is painless to prepare & serve from. There is ample space for storing your groceries. The dining table seats 6 & the close by kitchen bar seats 2.

If you prefer al fresco dining, appreciate the picnic table in the back & add flavor to your meal using the gas grille. After dinner get comfortable in the 6 Adirondack chairs & watch for fireflies. You can even toast marshmallows using the fire ring.

There is sleeping for 6 in the 3 gorgeous bedrooms & a pull-out couch in the living area for 2 more. 2 bedrooms (Queen-sized beds) share a hall bath with a tub/shower combination. The Primary bedroom (Queen) has an EnSuite bathroom with a walk in shower. Bring your bath bombs & soak away the anxiety of everyday life. No need to live out of suitcases as each bedroom has closets & dressers to unpack. Use the supplied full-sized Washer & Dryer to perhaps pack lighter & have room to pack souvenirs on your trip home.

The beach access is a short drive or walk down the street. There is one bicycle supplied for your use or you can rent bicycles or a golf cart. As you return from your fun in the sun, unload in the garage & wash away the salt & sand in the outdoor shower (hot/cold water) just out back.

One of the features of this bungalow is a convenient desk space with natural light & direct access to the back deck if you prefer to work outdoors. If you pack your yoga mat, there is a roomy additional room flooded with natural light for exercise or play.

Strategies to get the perfect Oak Island vacation rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. Reserve your Southport vacation in Fall or Spring months to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Owners sometimes offer special rates for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitors guides which include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Planning, picking, and booking a perfectrental:

• To start, have your family agree to dates and a budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Wonderful Island Home In the Peaceful Wooded Section Only Mins to the Beach has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is almost always accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, email the property manager before reserving your home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Visiting for a single attraction or event? Use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the property manager about your furry family members before booking.

Considerations for your stay:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your . Store the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make sure that no damages are attributed to your family's visit, make a record of any problem areas upon check in. Get in touch with the property manager right away to relay any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific source for finding the best local spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can often help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Double-check the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at check-out. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a terrific stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
