Adorable waterfront bungalow with a private dock on the Davis Canal located 2 short blocks to the beach. Kick up your feet and relax with your family and furry friend. This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home is conveniently located near the Middleton Avenue bridge so it makes getting to the beach a breeze. It has a enormous back yard that leads to its own dock where you can fish or launch a modest boat, kayak, or paddleboard to discover the impressive, serene and wildlife-filled waterway. We have been told it’s one of the best spots for fishing on the canal! If calming on the beach or playing in the ocean is your want, take a fast 5 min. walk across the bridge and you are there. There is a private hot water shower to wash off the sand when you return.

The kitchen was refreshed in 2021, and is completely supplied. The master bedroom features a king bed and an en-suite full bathroom. The middle bedroom has a queen bed and 2 closets. The bunk room has two bunk beds and a sizable closet full of games and toys. There is also a pack and play, a toddler bed and a modest cot in the closets if needed.

The bungalow has central HVAC and full sized washer and dryer. Conveniences include intelligent TVs with local channels and Netflix as well as DVD players and dual band WiFi. There is a charcoal grille and a wagon to haul your beach stuff. The deck and outdoor shower were completely replaced in 2020. In 2021 we added a backyard picnic table and fully fenced in backyard!

Tricks and tips for getting the best Oak Island vacation home experience:

Sticking to a spending plan:

  • June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Southport area. To find the best vacation home within your budget, we strongly suggest booking in Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Southport vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
  • The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved early. Reserving your rental home 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
  • Some hosts offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
  • Booking websites usually offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
  • Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Southport area visitors guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport area magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

  • Select a group leader, select your vacation week, and select a max budget.
  • Note the number bedrooms and the configuration you need. Dock on Canal, Close to Beach and Dog Friendly with a fenced in backyard! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Southport rentals search.
  • Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts is normally accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email or call the host before booking the rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches. You will need to determine what is optimal for your trip.
  • Looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.
  • Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.
  • Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the owner about allowable breeds and types before booking.

More tips for your visit:

  • Add the owner's contact information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
  • Make a record of any damages to the property at check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are valuable if a dispute is filed.
  • Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or thermostat. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of difficulties.
  • Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful visitors disrupting your quiet neighborhood. Use the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would've not otherwise known!
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can usually help. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
  • Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
  • Re-check every room of the property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at departure. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Record a video to document the condition of the property.
  • Remember to leave feedback! Hosts rely on good ratings to propel new reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will will be grateful for your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to remedy it.
