Begin your next Oak Island beach vacation with a check in at Red Roof Inn! This third-row home is located in walking distance of Ocean Crest Fishing Pier and features multiple porches and a entirely fenced backyard from which to savor the fresh sea air and the sounds of the waves.

Hang out in the comfortable and bright living room to watch a movie on the enormous wall-mounted intelligent TV, or select one of the supplied board games or puzzles to lay out on the coffee table instead. A constructed in bench along the back wall offers the ideal perch for pulling on shoes before heading down to the beach. Down the hall, a laundry room with a full-sized washer and dryer connects through to a full bathroom with a standard tub/shower combo.

The adjacent kitchen provides tons of cabinet and counter space for preparing and storing ingredients, including a double sink ideal for rinsing off fresh local produce. Whether you plan to order in from local eateries or prepare lavish three-course meals from scratch, you’ll have everything you need to dine in style. The close by dining nook is furnished with a sturdy wooden table that seats six, and an additional four seats are available at the breakfast bar.

When it’s time to settle everybody in for the evening, you’ll find all sleeping spaces located on the second floor of the home. At the top of the stairs, another full bathroom with a standard tub/shower combo is shared by the three bedrooms around the corner. The first bedroom is furnished with a twin bed that has a pullout twin trundle underneath. The modest desk and chair is a convenient work station for those who are unable to completely avoid homework during their stay! The two queen bedrooms offer wall-mounted intelligent TVs for personal entertainment.

The master suite is also furnished with a queen bed and features an arm chair, wall-mounted intelligent TV, and an en suite bathroom complete with a glass and tile step in shower stall. Finest of all, there is direct access to a private covered porch that offers ocean vistas! Savor your morning coffee or evening beverage from the bistro table and chairs as you watch the sunlight reflect on the waves beyond.

There is also a partially covered porch below with access from the ground floor or living room and plenty of room for the whole group! Dine al fresco at the outdoor table that seats six under the shaded portion of the deck or soak in the sun’s rays from classic wooden rocking chairs further forward. The back deck overlooks the completely fenced, grassy backyard where little ones can play safely. An enclosed outdoor shower with hot and cold water under the home makes rinsing the sand off after a trip to the beach super painless, and a gas grille is supplied for cooking out.

When the time comes to hit the sand, you have the choice of two public beach accesses within 1000 feet of your doorstep. Set up by the pier via the 16th Place East beach path for convenient access to dining options and refreshments, or venture further east to the 19th Place East access if you prefer to set up further from the pier. Or turn away from the sea to meander along the 19th Place East spectacular walkway over Davis Canal, which offers phenomenal wildlife viewing opportunities and a photogenic gazebo. When your adventures for the day are done, scan the horizon and let the namesake feature of Red Roof Inn guide you back to your home away from home.

Cape Fear area vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Sticking to your spending budget:

• Summer time is high season in Oak Island. To find the best rental for your budget, we recommend booking in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular attractions. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property management companies frequently offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitor guides that include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship between the property 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.

Selecting the best vacation rental in the Cape Fear area area:

• Choose dates and budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group requires. Red Roof Inn: Ocean Views, Coastal Comfort, Close to Pier has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is almost always available online. If not, reach out to the property owner before booking the vacation property. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds.
• Are you visiting for a single event? Use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the owner about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Tips for your stay:

• Store the owner's information in your smartphone.
• Record any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if damages are assessed.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your life at home. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and attractions you would have never otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking the rental while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Just prior to departing, complete a walk-through to make sure you did not forget anything. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Walk through the property one final time and look for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a great time? Most rental management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
