Remodeled while keeping the old style beach bungalow nostalgia; this cozy bungalow is one of the original properties on Wrightsville Beach (1927).

This property features an open feel to savor the ocean or canal breezes from windows surrounding the home. Parking is ample under the home with a wide railed front porch overlooking both the ocean and the canal within 200 yards of getting sand in between your toes.

We spend countless hour’s people watching and appreciating the close proximity to all that Wrightsville has to offer.

The home features modest yet more than adequate amenities with heart-pine floors, two enormous bedrooms privately located, with bathrooms that offer plenty of room to move around.

The open den/dining/bar and kitchen areas offers you and your guests plenty of socializing within eyes and ears reach in case you leave your drink behind.

We leave the original Hatteras Hammock and our Brazilian Cherry Rocker's on the deck all season so you can appreciate the reason we raised this home up by 10 feet.

If you like an outdoor shower then you will adore our private get away with hot and cold so can you wash away the rejuvenating salt water after a long day soaking up the sun on the beach within 200 yards of the elevated porch.

If you need groceries, want to eat a great seafood meal, or want to rent a bicycle, surfboard, sailboat or sea-kayak then just pack a modest daypack and you're a six mins. walk from the center of Wrightsville Beach.

Of course if you need a new outfit or bathing suit you can duck into Sweet Water Surf Shop and find the ideal fit for beauty or beast. Just tell 'em you have a 'Local's Card' (15% discount!) but left it at OLE #3.

Perhaps you would like to fish off of the famed Johnnie Mercer's Pier; then just walk four mins. and you're on North Carolina's longest 'ocean front dock'.

If you want handsome blues skies and emerald water to match, with the best darn view and location on the beach then come relax at #3 West Fayetteville Street!

Tricks and tips for getting the best Wilmington, NC rental home experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The sooner your group can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Reserving your vacation property six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental property.
• Summertime is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To find the best value, try shifting your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer pleasant temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Some hosts and property managers offer promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies frequently offer guests an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines contain discounts for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Finding the perfect vacation home in Wrightsville Beach:

• To start, have your family choose vacation dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration you need. Tranquil Wrightsville Beach Cottage 200 Yds from the Sand!!! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed types is often accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the host before booking your rental. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly property. Request details on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Additional considerations:

• Take a copy of the host's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home. Put the host's contact information in your smartphone.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, stereo or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents a lot of concerns.
• Lock your rental while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• Make a record of any issues with the property during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute arises.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a great resource to find the best local beaches and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before departing, take a walk through the rental property to make sure you've collected all personal belongings. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition.
• Did you have a great time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for guests to provide comments. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
