Upon arrival, you will see just how this home is open and airy - full of natural light. You can look straight through the home and look directly down the canal at the calming waterfront vistas as soon as you open the front door. Stress...GONE. From there you will find a supplied kitchen that will ease the process of cooking for all 14 people. There are two fridges to help store all your food! The included washer and dryer help reduce the amount of clothes needed so packing is easier. The first floor primary bathroom has the extravagant feel of being in a hotel with the enormous wall tiles in the shower and the mutli-setting showerhead. Walking up the stairs under the fancy chandelier will lead you to the three additional bedrooms and workstation. This home is ideal for the long getaways where work may sometimes be required. There are vistas of water from every bedroom upstairs - what a treat! You will be walking on LVP floor everywhere in this home, so you know it is clean and will not trap the sand and grime as carpet does. The second story deck and crows nest are ideal for sunbathing while appreciating the canal and the ocean! The enclosed ground floor garage area is ideal for relaxing and playing games when the weather outside is not ideal. But when the weather is ideal, the entirely-enclosed backyard accepts kids to run around and play cornhole, catch, etc. all while the parents relax knowing the waters edge and street are guarded by an aluminum fence. The outdoor shower and hose area is ideal for getting all the clingy sand off before entering the home after a great day on the beach. Sitting on the boat dock can be so relaxing. The dock is also ideal for fishing, catching crabs, swimming, or just laying down to sunbathe. The front of the home parking accepts for many cars when there are multiple families gathering together at this home.

This striking home is as close as you can be to the beach, while having a premier canal location and boat dock. 1 mile from OIB city center, close beach access (3 min. walk) and appealing décor! Walking distance to the park, museum, coffee shop, and putt putt. Convenient summer Sunday to Sunday units (during summer season ONLY) - avoid the traffic! New, comfortable beds, tons of eating space, upstairs bar/coffee area, desk and working space, plenty of deck space on multiple levels and crow's nest with exceptional canal, city, and ocean vistas. Savor morning sun on the front deck, afternoon shade on the back deck, watching the boats come in on the canal. Very kid-friendly- supplied with tons of kids' extras, including crib, pack-n-play, kids silverware and cups, high chair, step stools, beach toys, completely fenced in backyard. Come see why the "Three C's" in our family adore making memories here, and we know you will too!

Strategies to get the optimal vacation home experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Reserve your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To find the largest rental within budget, we strongly suggest booking in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Wilmington, NC restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host if your family qualifies for a special rate.
• Property management companies usually offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area travel guide magazines that include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• Choose a group leader, select your dates, and select a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group needs. Beach House on a Canal in Ocean Isle Beach has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is commonly accessible on booking websites. Otherwise, contact the property manager before reserving the rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds in living rooms. You will need to determine what configuration is best for your vacation family.
• Remember to include your furry companions! 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.
• Does your family require particular amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

More tips for your visit:

• Add the host's information to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the rental while you are away, just like you would at home.
• Document any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Just before checking out, take a walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and look for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a wonderful stay? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
