Standing near the Oak Island Fishing Pier and featuring a private oceanfront pool, Lighthouse will guide your family to an Oak Island vacation you won’t soon forget! Unwind on three levels of deck space complete with plenty of comfortable outdoor furnishings, including two covered porches and an open sun deck. Take an afternoon nap in the shaded hammock as the sea breeze washes over you or gather around the firepit in the evenings for smores and stories. With elevator access to all floors, this handsome home can accommodate your entire family!

The first level is dedicated entirely to common living space. Parlor together in the living room to appreciate a favorite movie on the huge, wall-mounted, flat-screen TV. The sturdy dining table seats eight comfortably for home-cooked meals or a friendly round of cards. The close by breakfast bar provides seating for another five as well as extraordinary vistas of the crashing surf. Gleaming stone countertops and tile backsplash create an inviting kitchen space, outfitted with everything you need to prepare traditional family recipes or the catch of the day. A half bath is also located on this level for your convenience, with the laundry closet containing a stackable washer and dryer on the opposite side of the hall.

The next two stories provide three bedrooms and two full bathrooms on each floor. Every bedroom has its own T.V. for entertainment, and all bedrooms except the bunk room also have direct deck access. At the top of the staircase on the second floor, you’ll find the first king bedroom featuring an attached private bath with a step-in shower. On the west side of the home, you’ll find a full bathroom with a standard tub/shower combo, double sinks and hall access shared between the other two bedrooms on this floor. One of these rooms is furnished with a king bed. The third room may be utilized either as a bedroom or as a second living area thanks to the queen sleeper couch, additional-sizable TV and wine refrigerator located here.

The layout of the third floor is nearly the same as the second, with an identical king bedroom and attached private bath at the top of the staircase. The other two bedrooms on this floor again share access to a hall bath, with one of these rooms featuring a king bed. The final bedroom is the bunk room, complete with two twin-over-twin bunk beds. The sliding door in this room has been converted to function as a window only, so you don’t need to worry about little ones escaping to the deck without supervision.

On the ground level, the private pool provides a welcome spot to cool off without the need to navigate rolling waves. Totally fenced, the pool area is complete with comfortable lounge chairs and a stone fire pit. A hammock waits just outside the gates, strung between pilings under the shade of the home. The shared public beach access one home to the west is effortlessly reached via the street side of the home, but please note that the beach cannot be directly accessed from the pool area. Feeling hungry? Several eateries sit within painless walking distance of this home, including oceanfront dining options.

Take a break from the turbulent, stormy seas of everyday life and let Lighthouse shepherd your family to a well-deserved respite in handsome Oak Island today!

Strategies for getting the best Carolina Beach vacation rental experience:

When to visit Oak Island & When to book:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To book the largest rental for your budget, we highly recommend reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at your favorite restaurants and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Hosts sometimes offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Often, property management companies supply Carolina Beach area travel guide magazines that include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach area magazine and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.
