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.

Tips and Tricks to get the perfect vacation rental experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Summer time is high season in the Cape Fear area area. Booking in Fall or Spring months is our favorite way to save money on your rental home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable homes.
• In the Cape Fear area area, The earlier you can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental property up to 12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Often, property management companies supply Cape Fear area area visitor guides which will include coupons, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning and choosing a perfect Cape Fear area rental:

• Choose a group leader, choose your trip dates, and choose a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family requires. Beach House Just Steps To The Ocean With Partial Sea View & No Parking Fees! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking websites. Otherwise, email the host before reserving the rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• If there's a particular Cape Fear area destination you crave, search for properties that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.

More considerations:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the instructions to your phone.
• Record any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately contact the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be helpful if a dispute arises.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• At departure, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on good ratings to propel more bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience find their best vacation rental. Please 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.
