Plus, you're more than welcome to use the beach gear — like chairs and a wagon — for the short walk to the sandy shore.

The second covered deck is massive and features an outdoor dining table that seats up to 8 people.

The vaulted ceilings continue into the master bedroom, where you will find a opulent king bed, huge flatscreen TV, and ensuite bathroom with double vanity and a cavernous walk-in shower.

Rental home tips:

Cost saving strategies:

• Summer months are high season in Oak Island. To get the best rental within budget, we recommend reserving in the Spring or Fall. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Carolina Beach restaurants, tours, and activities.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Many management companies supply Carolina Beach area visitor guide magazines that include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or through a partnership between the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Carolina Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning, selecting, and booking a perfect Carolina Beach rental:

• Start by selecting your the best vacation week and a max budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Beautiful Home with a Partial Ocean View & Reverse Floor Plan. Carolina in my Mind has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property management company before you book the home. Remember that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what bed configuration is suitable for your vacation group.
• If there's a specific Carolina Beach attraction you long to visit, keep an eye out for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before booking.
• If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly rental. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Be aware that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.

Some things to know before you go:

• Be sure you get the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Document any damages to the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are helpful if there is a dispute.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disrespectful vacationers bothering your home life. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you are away. Keep your property safe!
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your family have a wonderful vacation? Many rental management companies make it easy for travelers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong 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 review.
