This unique beach bungalow on Oak Island offers a beautiful view of the Atlantic Ocean from every room! You will notice there are no neighbors or structures between you and your private ocean backyard for 180 degrees! From the wrap-around porch, you can see close by Bald Head Island, plus the Oak Island Lighthouse and Oak Island Pier - all at one gorgeous glance.

This peaceful location is ideal for a vacation. Cyclists can savor an invigorating ride on the beach. Runners will like the ideal compacted sand. You can swim, ride waves, or simply sun-bathe. Do yoga on the porch, inhaling the intoxicating ocean breeze. Fix your favorite foods in the kitchen with its spectacular view!

The home provides access to numerous diverting attractions. Walk to Caswell Beach, a natural turtle sanctuary with more than 55 turtle nests. Savor the island's many friendly eateries. Bicycle to a lighthouse you can climb. Drive to the impressive oceanside village of Southport. Take the ferry to Bald Head Island or Fort Fisher and the Aquarium. Shop in Wilmington or close by Myrtle Beach.

For the most spectacular location, there’s a restaurant right at our pier called Koco Kabana. It’s Oceanview and very good food. For Thai food we recommend Thai By The Sea-take out only. It’s just a few blocks away from the home. For great Italian food we recommend multiple eateries but probably Joseph’s the most. It’s on the intercoastal right by the boat docks. For a great clean grass fed steak we recommend Traquil Harbor-they delivered our dinner to our door yesterday and it was definitely delicious. It’s across the street from the Food Lion and not fancy but great vegetables and food. Duffers is at the Oak Island Country Club, is delicious and only 2 mins. away. We would also highly recommend you going to Southport for numerous striking eateries there that are very “hole in the wall” but completely classic. That would include Fishy Fishy, Provisions, Mr. P. and Oliver’s. This is for the local seafood. And, plan on walking around the older parts of Southport because it is really beautiful. Many older homes have survived all the hurricanes for some striking reason. And it’s charming.

Finest of all, appreciate some healing relaxation in this glorious natural setting. Make this special ocean-side bungalow your vacation choice today! This home if for relaxing beach lovers.

Strategies for getting the perfect Oak Island vacation rental experience:

Money saving strategies:

• To get the best vacation home within your budget, we suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or 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 near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies often offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Cape Fear area area magazine when you check-in. 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 coupons for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Select a group leader, select your vacation week, and choose a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Ocean Front Beach Cottage-180 degrees ocean view from every room and L-deck has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking pages. If not, email the property management company before you book the rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• If there's a particular Cape Fear area destination you crave, search for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• If your family is bringing pets, filter your search for a property that allows animals. Ask for specifics on breed, size, and type requirements. Some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

More tips for your visit:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your phone.
• To ensure that no damages are linked to your stay, note any problem areas during arrival. message the host immediately to document your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are out! Don't let burglars ruin your vacation.
• Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the property one final time and look for damage. We advise inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host is not available, ensure that you take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a wonderful vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
