No need to worry about expensive beach parking. Bird's Eye View is only 200 steps to the beach.

We look forward to welcoming you and your family (including dogs) to Bird’s Eye View, our 4 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home, on pilings with impressive marsh and ocean vistas from 3 decks and simple beach access. This 3rd-row vacation home is located on the peaceful West side of Oak Island with beautiful vistas of both the ocean and salt marsh. The home includes a roomy two-story family room filled with natural light and plenty of seating for everybody to relax after a day in the sun.

This home is managed by the owners, rather than a property management company, so you'll receive personal attention to answer your questions or address any issues. Check out the reviews, all of which are 5-star! We're also happy to provide tips on eateries and things to do in the area.

You’ll savor cooking in the well-equipped sizable kitchen complete with dining area or on a propane grille looking out over the marsh on the back deck. No matter where you are inside or out you will have the ability to slip away and appreciate a beautiful and calming lookout.

The bedrooms are carefully spread around the home. The primary bedroom (Queen) is tucked away on the main floor, offering privacy and includes a new (2023) ensuite bathroom and huge closet and window seat. A bunkroom is located on the same floor with a powder room close by. The upstairs guest rooms share a new bathroom, with a extravagant soaking tub (and shower) located off the hallway. The King bedroom has a private Oceanview sitting room and flat screen tv. The Queen guestroom has access to the private rooftop deck overlooking the marsh with comfortable Adirondack chairs for your morning coffee or to watch handsome sunsets. Hidden behind a barn door on the main floor is a comfortable den and desk/monitor setup overlooking the back deck and marsh, ideal for both peaceful remote work or as a kids getaway, reading or just calming.

After you’ve appreciated the sun and surf at the beach, rinse off in the outdoor shower with hot and cold water and then relax on the front deck with vistas of the ocean or back deck with vistas of the marsh. Parking under the home and on enormous driveway is available for full family and guest use. No need to deal with OKI's parking restrictions. (Please do not park electric cars under the home.)

We've invested in High-Speed internet for our guests. The four TVs are "intelligent" or include Roku or Firesticks so you can log in to your favorite streaming programs with YOUR log-in credentials for Netflix, Disney +, Prime Video, Hulu, Paramount+, DIRECTV Stream, YouTube TV, Spectrum Streaming, Max, etc., etc. or even your Gaming systems.

But most of the time you'll be outdoors! Included for family fun are outside / beach accessories, such as beach chairs, an umbrella, corn hole boards, firepit, etc. A ping pong table is setup in the garage for team play! There are also a couple of bicycles for your use.

The home sleeps 10 in 4 bedrooms (including a bunkroom with a twin over full bunkbed plus twin trundle). Linens and towels are not supplied, so you may either bring your own or contact Beach Stuff Linen Rental (www.rudd.com/beach-stuff-linen-rental). They can be reached at 910-523-0971 (in peak season they can sell out).

Well-behaved, housebroken, dogs (up to 2) are welcome. Please specify when reserving. Pet (dogs only) costs apply: $25 per pet, per nighttime. Please specify the number of family pets in your booking request.

Rental home tips and tricks:

How to get the best rental value:

  • June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Wilmington, NC area. Book your vacation in the Spring or Fall to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be 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 home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
  • Some owners offer rate reductions for active duty military and veterans. Check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group.
  • Property management companies usually offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
  • Look for your local Wilmington, NC visitors guide magazine upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, travel guides contain coupons for local shops and restaurants.

Planning and picking a perfect Wilmington, NC vacation home:

  • To start, have your family commit to a vacation week and a maximum budget.
  • Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Ocean & Wetland views, 3 decks, steps from the beach, 4 BRs, sleeps 10. has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
  • Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the host before booking the property. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds.
  • If there's a certain Wilmington, NC attraction you are crazy about, browse properties that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
  • Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests with disabilities. .
  • Some rentals allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

Tips for your stay:

  • Get the property manager's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone.
  • To make sure that no damages are linked to your family's visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during check in. text the host immediately to relay any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
  • Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
  • Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud vacationers bothering your life at home. Apply the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would have never otherwise known!
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
  • Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would back home.
  • Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all belongings. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
  • Go through the property a final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the property manager is not available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition.
  • Did your group have a excellent vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.

Victory Beach Vacations

Visitors who are on the hunt for the postcard-perfect vacation rental in the heart of the Carolina Beach or Kure Beach area will find an enticing selection and plenty of friendly customer service when they rent through Victory Beach Vacations. Based in Carolina Beach in the coastal Cape Fear region, Victory Beach Vacations has more than 100 vacation rentals in all shapes and sizes to ensure that every vacationing family can find their dream home away from home on the beach.   When you book your Cape Fear getaway with Victory Beach Vacations, the fun doesn’t end when you leave the beach, it continues with an array of privately-owned properties outfitted with all of the amenities needed for a fabulous beach vacation.   Jenna Lanier, General Manager, explains that her family first opened the rental and property management business in 2002. At the forefront of Victory Beach operations is Lanier’s mother, Caroline Meeks. Meeks is both the Broker in Charge and co-owner with husband, Buck Meeks, who manages the Field Services team with Lanier’s husband, Scott.   For nearly 20 years, the Victory Beach team has worked tirelessly to establish a network of top-of-the-line rental properties for Cape Fear visitors to enjoy. “As far as our properties go,” explains Lanier, “they are all updated, well-furnished and appointed. “We have always performed post-cleaning inspections and since the pandemic, have put freshly laundered duvets over all of the comforters between rentals.”   Lanier emphasizes how important the guests experience is “we strive to give our guests a relaxing, stress free, memorable vacation.” This emphasis on customer service has led to Victory Beach Vacations having a 4.8 Google rating with over 300 reviews by happy owners and guests.In addition to Victory Beach’s superior sanitation practices, the company offers properties for every type of visitor. Choose from luxury oceanfront houses and condos to more reasonbly priced 2nd row properties with oceanviews. Many properties include pools and hot tubs as well, perfect for outdoor entertaining, and many are dog friendly.   Lanier also notes that all properties are within walking or driving distance to Pleasure Island’s main attractions – Carolina Beach and Kure Beach. The former, as described by Lanier, is the more commercialized of the two destinations and features a boardwalk, outdoor dining options and a plethora of weekly activities including fireworks, live music, amusement park pop-ups, and movies under the stars. Kure Beach offers a more residential feel with its fishing pier, intimate restaurants and family favorite, North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher.More water fun awaits, too. “There is a harbor and a canal that feed into the intercoastal. We have several properties on the harbor so guests can bring their boat, kayak, [or jet ski] and travel between islands,” says Lanier.   A stay with Victory Beach Vacations is an annual pilgrimage for most. “A large percentage of guests are previous guests. Some even reserve the same property for the next year as they’re checking out,” Lanier says. “It’s almost like it’s their personal vacation home.”   Even before guests arrive at their vacation destination, the Victory Beach Vacations’ website greets them with a live beach cam and exquisite aerial footage of both Carolina and Kure Beaches.
