This handsome home is the answer to all your cravings for tranquility, peaceful, serenity, and happiness. Located in the peaceful wooded area of Oak Island, but still very close to the beach and all the incredible activities and great eateries the island and surrounding towns have to offer. Surrounded by pretty trees, you can start your mornings out slow on the calming screened porch with your favorite cup of coffee as the ocean breezes rustle gently through the trees and breathe in the healing salt air. Inside, you will continue to feel a sense of calm as you take in the soothingly decorated beach theme throughout the home. With the open-concept floor plan, everybody can be together, even as the chef in the family whips up a special meal. The master bedroom suite is very cavernous and offers a whirlpool tub in the private bath so you can relax your cares away. There are also two guest bedrooms - one a bunk bedroom, ideal for the kids - the other offering a queen and a twin single, ideal for a modest family or teenagers. Don't forget about the enormous fenced backyard where you can grille out your catch from a day of fishing at the beach or visit one of the local fresh seafood markets to grab your dinner! Appreciate rocking away on the two-seater swing under the home as the kids play, catching up on old times with family and friends. Everything here is so relaxing and gorgeous that you will be "happy clams" wanting to come back year after year!

Tips for getting the perfect Oak Island rental home experience:

Finding your perfect vacation home:

• Summer time is high season in the Carolina Beach area. Book your Carolina Beach rental home in the Fall or Spring to get the benefit of beautiful 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 near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups book their Summer rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for details.
• Often, rental management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Selecting the perfect rental home in Oak Island:

• Select vacation dates and spending budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family requires. 3 BR\/2 BA Home, Minutes to Beach, Pool with Heating, Sleeps 9 has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, email the property owner before booking the home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to determine what configuration is suitable for your family.
• If there's a specific Carolina Beach beach you long to visit, keep an eye out for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to book a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Often, hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Review check in & check out procedures before traveling. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the directions to your smartphone.
• During check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately contact the property manager. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few concerns.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often an excellent source for finding the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Lock your rental while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the rental a final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a excellent vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
