Townhouse right on the Intracoastal Waterway, and entirely refreshed (constructed in 2021). This townhouse provides 180 degree vistas of the Intracoastal from the living room to the kitchen and in the master bedroom. If you want to stare at the water, but don’t want to leave home (or if the weather doesn’t permit you to go to the beach) you can just gaze at the Intracoastal Waterway from the covered deck, the living room couch or the master bedroom. The living room has five upsized windows and a sliding glass door that not only allow you to completely view the Intracoastal, but provide tons of sunlight making you feel as if you’re outside. Watch boats go by, a variety of birds, sky divers sky dive from across the waterway and the occasional deer, turtle and/or bunny go by. The townhouse is an end-unit and feels very private. It also has dual air conditioners (one for the first floor and one for the second), a tankless water heater (so nobody has to wait to take a shower), three full bathrooms (two bathtub/showers, one stand-up shower), TVs with cable in every bedroom and in the living room, washer, dryer, dishwasher, garbage disposal and an outdoor shower. The beach is less than a mile away. There is paid parking at the beach. Drive time to the beach only one or two mins.. Or, if you’d like, you can take a 10–15-min. walk to the beach or even bicycle to the beach. Beach access pathways total roughly 206 across Oak Island. Rent bicycles and ride to the beach or discover this splendid Island. The townhouse is also a mere 10-15 min. drive to downtown Southport. Please keep in mind, this is not a event home. Please respect our neighbors, many of whom live in the complex year-round. Please do not play loud music or be very loud late at nighttime. Thank you and we hope you appreciate your stay!!

Owners may have a dog and cat present during their stays.

Oak Island vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Finding your perfect rental:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Oak Island. To get the best value, try shifting your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner your group can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked very early. Booking your vacation rental six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host whether your group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Property management companies typically offer renters an option to buy trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines contain discounts for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Planning and choosing the perfectvacation home:

• Select your vacation dates and budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Intracoastal Views: Townhouse with Views of Intracoastal Waterway has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed types is generally accessible on booking pages. If they are not listed, reach out to the property owner before booking the home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds in living rooms. You'll need to establish what is suitable for your vacation family.
• Is your family looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking.
• If your family is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property managers charge additional pet fees.

Tips for your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before traveling. Save the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Record any damages to the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be helpful if damages are assessed.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful. Often times, adjacent homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all of your things. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the rental one final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, remember to take video and pictures of the property to record its condition.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent ratings to drive future reservations. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
