You will find an open floor plan and plenty of light. The simple but comfortable living room couches invite you to sit down for a while. Unwind under the cooling breezes of the palm-bladed ceiling fan. Pick up and read one of the books on the North Carolina coast.

In the spotless kitchen, you will find refreshed lighting and a ceramic tiled floor. The cupboards are packed full of dishes, cookware, modest appliances, and glasses. As we appreciate to prepare you will find everything is supplied for you to prepare delicious vacation meals.

Open the sliding glass doors and walk into the pleasing screened porch.

The porch offers vistas of the sand garden and planted flowering beds with handmade ceramic sculptures. On the concrete patio, you will find a dining table to appreciate meals al fresco. An outdoor shower fed from the garden hose is available for a fast rinse of the ocean water.

Back inside walk down the hallway where the laundry room sits behind folding doors. The master bedroom is light and airy with modern design furnishings. The queen-size bed is cozy and ensures a restful nighttime's sleep, dreaming of waves and sand. Off the bedroom is the master bath; it is well lit, clean, and fresh. Two simple twin beds are in the second bedroom with wall-mounted reading lights overhead. A modern maple dresser and mirror complete the room. The main bathroom is simple and clean with seashells as the motif. All linens are included for your stay including two sets of bath towels for each guest. Cleaning supplies are also supplied for your use.

Now it's time to head to the real star of the island, the beach. It's a short distance by bicycle or car with over 60 public beach access points. No matter the time of the year your time spent at the beach will be memorable.

How to get the best Wilmington, NC vacation property experience:

Money saving strategies:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Booking in the Spring or Fall is our best tip for saving money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Some property managers offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers often offer their guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitor guides contain offers and deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

How to choose and book a perfect Wilmington, NC rental:

• Start by choosing potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Perfect Little Beach Cottage for your stay on Oak Island has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email the property manager before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you must reserve a property that allows animals. Request specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental

Have a great stay:

• Get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your .
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are out. Protect your property!
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your stay, record any problem areas during arrival. Make contact with the property manager right away to report any damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are an excellent source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to make sure you've collected everything. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your family have a fantastic time? Most rental websites make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was inoperable and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
