Welcome to our family beach home, with a partial sea view from the back deck and a front porch shaded by oak trees. Located in the peaceful Yaupon area of Oak Island, this “home away from home” is only steps away from the beach so you do not have to pay parking costs to appreciate the beach or pier. Appreciate striking sunrises over the close by pier and spectacular sunsets along the beach. This ideal location is a short walk to eateries, coffee stores, and more! AND you’re just a 15-min. drive from the town of Southport or a 45-min. drive from the beach city of Wilmington, both historical locations with more waterside eateries and tons of family activities. So much to do - book while you can!

Our bungalow is a single story home with an open and airy feel. The main highlights are a enormous shaded front porch and sunny open back deck with peek-a-boo vistas of the ocean. Savor rocking on the decks or sitting on the swing seat and listening to the calming sound of the waves crashing on the beach.

The cozy historic town of Southport is 6 miles away and offers something fun for everybody! Boat tours, ferry to Bald Head Island, Waterfront Park, and a variety of waterfront eateries. The city of Wilmington is also only a 45 min.-drive away and while much busier than this area, it offers many fun family acitivities such as an aquarium, Jungle Rapids Family Fun Park, escape rooms, animal parks, and the historic riverwalk with waterfront eateries.

Tips to get the best vacation rental experience:

When to go & When to book:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer is the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To get the best value, try shifting your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer warmer weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Booking websites usually offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitor guides contain deals for nearby shops and restaurants.

Planning, picking, and booking yourrental:

• Select a group lead, choose your dates, and select a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Beach House Just Steps To The Ocean With Partial Sea View & No Parking Fees! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly accessible on booking pages. If not, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• Some rentals allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the owner about your furry family members before booking.
• If there's a certain Cape Fear area attraction you are enamored with, browse homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. .

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents lots of issues.
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Upon check-in, document any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the host. Record all coorespondence.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a great time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
