Sensational 4 bedroom, 3 bath home on Oak Island, NC, only a very short walk to the beach. 2 level home features a family room, completely loaded kitchen, dining room, screened porch, 2 BRs and 2 baths on the main floor. 2nd floor has 2 more bedrooms, a full bath, another family room, and a elegant covered porch. We also have a pool!

We are on the 3rd row back from the beach and about a 2-3 min. walk to a public beach access on 26th.

House sleeps 10 with a king and a queen bed on the main level, and a queen, two twins and a queen sleeper couch on the 2nd level.

Conveniences include washer/dryer, WiFi, cable TV with HBO and Cinemax, stereo system, gas grille, pool. We also have installed an elevator from the ground floor to the first floor.

There are two outside Blink cameras. One is on the front porch facing the front door. The second is under the screened porch facing out under the home and toward the street. The cameras are turned ON during rental season ONLY between 10 am and 4 pm on Saturdays, check in day. This accepts us to let the property manager know when guests are gone so that the home can be cleaned for the next guests. The cameras are turned OFF after 4 pm on Saturdays and remain OFF during your stay. They remain ON at all times in the off season.

Although we have the off season blocked off for personal use, we would consider renting the home during that time if we are not going to be there. We try to get there as often as we can, and sometimes we don't know until a few days before. But e-mail us if you are considering a last min. fall, winter or spring hideaway to the beach! The home may be available! We will not rent too far in advance, but it's worth a try!

Getting the best Southport vacation property experience:

Get the best rental value:

• The earlier your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best properties are booked very early. Reserving your vacation property 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Summer months are high season in Oak Island. Booking a rental in the Spring or Fall is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of acceptable homes. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Some owners offer special rates for veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
• Property managers often offer customers an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for additional information.
• Many property 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 partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Southport visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

• Start by choosing your a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family requires. Our Home Away From Home Can Be Yours! has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed types is often accessible online. If they are not listed, reach out to the property owner before reserving the property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to work out what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation family.
• Some rentals allow pets, and some don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters for amenities. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.

• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental while you are out. Protect your property!
• To make sure that no damages are linked to your stay, note any problem areas during arrival. text the rental manager right away to record any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded issues and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at departure. Remember to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
