Unwind at this peaceful 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. Feel complimentary to bring your family pets, if desired! Home has 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths. (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 freshly 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 savor 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.

Tips and Tricks to get the perfect vacation home experience:

When to visit Ocean Isle Beach & When to reserve a Southport rental home:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Southport area. Booking your Southport vacation rental in Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. 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.
• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Winter holiday gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Some property managers offer special rates for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.
• Find a copy of your local Southport visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines contain offers and deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Selecting the perfect vacation rental:

• Select your vacation week and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Perfect getaway in Ocean Isle Beach-beach just steps away & pet-friendly! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available online. If not, email the property management company before you book the home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds.
• If there's a certain Southport destination you long to visit, look for homes that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before booking.
• Some rentals allow pets, but some don't. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the property management company about pet restrictions before booking.

Advice for a fantastic stay:

• Add the host's information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Record any issues with the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Hosts are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a fantastic source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would back home.
• When it's time to leave, complete a final walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to stimulate new bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
