Savor appetizers at the beverage table any time of day – curtains are available to help block the sun if needed, as well as ceiling fans. The screened porch leads out to a modest back deck with additional seating.

In the yard, a dedicated grilling patio furnished with a gas grille is the ideal spot to prepare up the catch of the day, and a classic wooden picnic table stands close by to eat afterwards. Two Adirondak chairs are positioned to relax and gaze out over the wetlands. Under the home, an enclosed outdoor shower with hot and cold water makes rinsing sand off after a trip to the beach a breeze, and there’s plenty of driveway parking for your cars. When it’s time to hit the beach, you might even choose to leave them parked and walk – the nearest beach access is just over half a mile from your doorstep.

Strategies to get the perfect Southport vacation property experience:

When to book & When to go:

• The earlier your group can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your rental property six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Book your Southport rental in Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer.
• Some owners offer rate reductions for veterans. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Southport area magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, travel guides contain discounts for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

How to choose the best rental home in Oak Island:

• Start by selecting potential vacation weeks and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. OKI Corral: Dog-Friendly House on Quiet Street has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is generally available on booking pages. If not, contact the property management company before you book the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish what configuration is best for your group.

• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. .

Tips for your stay:

• We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would back home.
• At Check-in, make note of any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers bothering your home life. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and places you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can usually help. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Just before checking out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you did not leave anything behind. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a terrific stay? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your property and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
