These Are The Days - 2 Bedroom 1 Bath Home, Oceanfront, Dog Friendly, Sleeps 6

Perfectly named from a time when a beach vacation was calming. Have a cookout on the charcoal grille with family and friends or sit out on the oceanfront deck and take in handsome ocean vistas, sounds of the waves rolling onto shore, and the healing salt sea air. Watch the kids play or the surf fisherman bring in the day's catch on the sandy shore below. "These Are The Days" offers great opportunity to slow down and appreciate unobstructed, expansive vistas of the beach, an outdoor shower, foot wash station, and the huge windows on the ocean side of the home that maximize the ocean vistas as you relax and relax in the living and dining areas. Watch the sunrise over breakfast or savor a charming sunset dinner. These Are The Days is also dog friendly, so bring your furry family members and furry friends along (only dogs under 30 lbs) to have some time away too. Close to all that Oak Island has to offer, These Are The Days will leave lasting memories year after year.

Booking the best rental experience:

Get the most from your vacation rental budget:

• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Carolina Beach area. Book your Carolina Beach vacation home in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Carolina Beach vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Some owners offer discounts for veterans. Check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers usually offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines which will include special offers, either offered directly by local companies, or through a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

• First, have your family commit to dates and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. 2BR\/1BA, Oceanfront Cottage, Amazing Views of Ocean, Dog Friendly, Sleeps 6 has 3 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is regularly available online. If you don't see them listed, email or call the property manager before booking the rental. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to establish what is right for your family.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or applied to your agreement.
• Is your group looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental

Know before you go:

• Add the owner's contact information to your phone. Understand and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of issues.
• Lock your vacation home while you are away. Protect your property!
• Record any issues with the property during check in, and immediately contact the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are beneficial if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Apply the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great beaches and scenic spots you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager is not available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a excellent vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
