Welcome to “The Boys of Summer Rental”! We’ve newly given this classic Oceanfront Cottage a fresh new look. You’ll adore the new decking board on the porch and sun deck, all-new furnishings and beds, appliances, windows, and doors. We’ve even repainted the whole place to make it feel brand new.

You’ll be right on the beach! The fenced-in yard gives you direct access to the ocean. Savor striking sunset vistas from the sun deck or the covered huge porch. Take a calming walk on the four rocking chairs, lounge on your private deck, or appreciate an outdoor dinner on the picnic table.

Getting the best Carolina Beach vacation property experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• June, July, and August are high season in Oak Island. Booking your vacation home in Fall or Spring months is our best tip for saving money on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties.
• Reserve your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host if your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Property managers usually offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have deals for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.
