Welcome to Narnia, a 5 bedroom oceanfront vacation home on Oak Island! If you're familiar with The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe — you'll understand why this comfortable coastal bungalow is named after the magical world of Narnia! There's so much to appreciate here, with a private boardwalk to the beach, multiple spaces for appreciating the expansive ocean vistas, and a completely refreshed kitchen. Plus, it's ideally located in the West Beach area, about a mile down the road from Lonerider and close to The Point.

On the main level, you'll find a bright, open floor plan for your family and friends to gather! The living space is complete with those amazing vistas, an upsized sectional couch, two swivel chairs, and a sizable flatscreen TV.

A few steps away is the cavernous dining area with a impressive wooden table that seats up to 8. The real star of the show is the broad oceanside deck that features multiple places to sit and relax while you listen to the calming sounds of the waves or watch the sunset with your favorite drink in hand.

Two bedrooms are located on this floor — both with queen-sized beds and coastal touches throughout. These bedrooms share a generous Jack and Jill bathroom with 2 toilets, 2 vanities, and a tub shower combination.

Tips and Tricks to get the very best rental home experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• To find the most suitable rental home for your budget, we suggest booking in Fall or Spring. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant 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 or unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites usually offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Look for your local Wilmington, NC area magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guide magazines contain offers and deals for local tours, shops, and attractions.

How to choose and book a perfectrental home:

• Select a designated group leader, select your trip dates, and choose a budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Oceanfront Cottage w\/ 3 Floors & Renovated Kitchen: Escape to Narnia has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is often available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property manager before booking the vacation home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You will need to determine what is right for your vacation group.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property manager about allowable breeds and types before booking.

More considerations:

• Get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your family's stay, record any problem areas upon your arrival. Speak to the rental manager immediately to report any issues. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to propel more reservations. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, 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 host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to solve it.
