Unwind at this relaxing beach home located on the handsome west side about mid-island on a street with direct public beach access just steps away! No need to drive and try to find parking.

(3 queen rooms and 1 bunk room with 2 sets of twin-over-twin bunk beds), each room has their own intelligent TV. Ideal for families or a few couples! The kitchen is open to the great room. All furnishings has been newly upgraded, along with decor and linens. There are 2 outdoor showers, one enclosed/private in the backyard and the other in front yard to rinse off before going in the home. There is a “crow’s nest” top deck where you can appreciate sunrise and sunset vistas of the inter-coastal and ocean! The kitchen is completely equipped with all kitchen essentials. There is a laundry room w/washer & dryer and a grille on-site.

Note, there are exterior security cameras at front & rear entrance into the home, as well as garage/carport area. There are no cameras in the interior of the home. They are stringently used for security at entrances and fire/damage protection while home is unoccupied.

In peak season, mid-June through mid-August, we require a 7-day minimum stay that goes from Sun-Sun. We made this change to ensure our cleaning crew has time to do a thorough clean & launder the linens. Saturdays in beach towns, the cleaning crews are spread very thin with little time to clean. In addition to having a very clean home, another renter benefit is you won’t experience the intense check-in/check-out traffic on Saturdays. ????

*Note, if bringing a pet(s), you must include them in your reservation when booking. In addition, to help us prepare for your visit; please select the actual number of adults & kids in your guest count.

Strategies to get the best Ocean Isle Beach vacation rental experience:

Sticking to a budget:

• Summertime is high season in Ocean Isle Beach. Booking your vacation rental in Spring or Fall is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property managers often offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Cape Fear area area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines have discounts for local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Make a plan and pick the bestrental home:

• First and foremost, have your family choose a vacation week and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Perfect getaway in Ocean Isle Beach-beach just steps away & pet-friendly! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, email the property management company before you reserve the vacation home. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Does your family require particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Request details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some property managers charge additional pet fees.

More tips for your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact information to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• During arrival, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be an incredible source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you're away. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, remember to take video of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent reviews to propel more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. 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.
