The Lazy Lookout has the ideal location for everybody! It has beautiful vistas of the ocean and Ocean Crest Pier. Right across the street from the 9th street beach access, which accepts you to step onto the beach in 30 seconds :) Also, the home is located right across the street from the 9th street walkway which is by far my favorite spot to watch the sunset and the Davis Canal!

The home itself has a beautiful front porch with a porch swing and rocking chairs, the ideal coffee spot for your friends and family! The crowd favorite is your own personal bar, The Lazy Lookout Parlor. This unique outdoor area comes with a full-sized refrigerator, an ice machine, and even a 60 inch intelligent TV.

Also, we have included surfboards, body boards, loads of sand toys, and beach games to make sure you get the most out of Oak Island!

Tips and Tricks to get the very best rental home experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Summertime is the most expensive season in coastal NC. Reserve your Carolina Beach vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer months.
• The earlier your group can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are booked early. Reserving your vacation property up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer special rates for veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed days as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Often, management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitors guides which include special deals, either offered independently by local companies, 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 grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• First, have your group select trip dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration you need. Loving the Lazy Lookout ??Beachview\/Access and Pet Friendly??4BR, 2 BA has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is normally available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You'll need to work out what is suitable for your family.
• Looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental
• Are you bringing the family pet? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement! Additional pet fees or costs could be applied to your contract.

More considerations for your visit:

• Add the property manager's information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• Document any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if there is a dispute.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent lots of concerns.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, nearby homes are filled by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to order delicious takeout, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a wonderful stay? Most rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct 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 comments.
