About this Property

• Sleeps 8
• 3 Bedrooms
• 2 Bathrooms
• Private vacation home
• Approximately 1540 square feet

New home constructed in Oct 2021! On a peaceful, residential street, never worry about being surrounded by event-goers. The streets safe for bicycle riding and walking, far enough away from the center of town, but close enough to be a 10-min drive to the amenities. Drive (2-3 min) or walk (10-15min) to the quietest part of the beach where you can see both the splendid sunrises and the gorgeous sunsets. The home is outfitted with all basic conveniences down to the bath towels, bed linens, cleaning supplies, paper products and even condiments in the refrigerator. Open, cavernous floor plan, comfortable living area, and cozy bedrooms for your time away from the beach. Puzzles, books, games, wi-fi, and TV's in every bedroom for your entertainment. Even a cute little "leave a book, take a book" box on the walk to the beach.

Bedroom 1, the master, includes a King bed and double vanity, with a double head shower bigger than you can imagine!
Bedroom 2, with a Queen bed includes a dresser to unpack all those clothes and feel like you actually live there rather than living out of a suitcase.
Bedroom 3, with 2 double beds accepts for those who like to share a room sleep-over style.

Bathrooms: both contain towels, basic soaps/shampoos and select toiletries in case you forget what you need, or simply to lighten your load when packing. The master includes a HUGE shower with two shower heads!

The front porch and the back screened-in porch make for great conversation, book reading, appreciating drinks or just winding down.

Below the home, aside from plenty of parking, there is a gas grille, a Blackstone flat top griddle, and an electric smoker available for responsible use. There is also an outdoor shower for rinsing off all that additional beach sand.

Paid parking is required at all beach tons. For details, go to oakislandnc.gov

Tricks and tips to get the very best rental experience:

How to get the best value:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• To find the best value, change your trip dates to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer warm temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Hosts sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers frequently offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guides contain offers and deals for nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Planning and picking a perfectvacation home:

• Select dates and max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. A Shore Escape - new to rental market! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available on booking pages. Otherwise, email or call the property owner before you book your home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds in living rooms.
• If your family is traveling with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific Wilmington, NC attraction you crave, search for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. .

Have a wonderful stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
• Property managers are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would at home.
• At Check-in, note any damages to the rental property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a terrific source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• When it's time to leave, complete a walk-through to make sure you haven't forget anything. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a fantastic vacation? Most rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental property and/or host was great, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
