Unwind on the platform deck under the Oak tree draped in Spanish Moss, or take an afternoon nap on the screened-in back porch. At nighttime, when it's peaceful on the island, you can hear the ocean waves in the distance and see millions of stars in the darkness.
The living room, dining area and kitchen have an open floor plan.
We have a sizable flat screen TV with a DVD player, along with extended TV cable services. We also have with numerous family friendly movies in our DVD library. You can effortlessly connect your laptop to the TV to stream your own programs on the big screen. If you need to work, there's also a modest desk for your use.
The kitchen is completely equipped to prepare, prepare and serve meals. Supplied in the kitchen: Fridge, glass top cooking stove and oven, dishwasher, microwave, toaster oven, coffee maker, food processor, and blender. We have stainless steel pots and pans, pyrex baking and serving dishes, serving silverware, knives and cutting boards, a knife sharpener, whisks, spatulas, stirring spoons, spatulas, a colander, salad spinner, corkscrew and a bottle cap opener. There are plenty of plates, bowls, cups, glasses, wine glasses, and silverware.
There are two bedrooms, both with memory foam beds. We provide sheets, pillows, and quilts. The two beds in the bedrooms will be made up when you get here. Both bedrooms have king sized beds.
The sleeper couch in the living room opens up to a queen size bed, and the cot is twin sized. Sheets, blankets and additional pillows for the couch bed and twin cot are stored in the Captain's bedroom closet.
Both bathrooms are full baths, with a shower and a tub. There is a HE washing machine and dryer in the closet in the hallway. We also provide a set of bath towels and a beach towel for each guest. There are also additional towels in the hall closet for your dog.
Your dogs will appreciate our fenced in backyard, and you'll adore the ease of letting them out without having to go out with them. We ask that you to clean up your dog's solid waste, along with a $50 pet fee for each dog.
We strive to keep the bungalow clean and fresh for everybody who visits-including for our guests without dogs.
We provide a modest supply of paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags, dish soap, dishwasher detergent, and laundry detergent for your stay. We also offer a high chair, booster seat, and step stool for the little ones, along with plenty of games and books.
We are located less than a quarter mile from the 14th St NE Veteran's Park on Yacht Drive, which is a great place to have a picnic or to go fishing. There is a modest gazebo where you and multiple others can get out of the sun and relax on the benches. From spring to fall you'll appreciate watching the ships, sailboats, and fishing boats go by. If you're lucky you might spot the occasional dolphin swimming, or possibly one of the smaller cruise ships.
Of course, there's the beach. It's a 0.9 mile walk through the nature trail to reach the closest beach access on foot, or a 1.4 mile drive to the closest beach access by car.
Don't overlook going through the nature trail over the marshes and Davis Canal. It may be your favorite walk ever! This area has one of the most spectacular nature spots on the island, and you can only see it on foot or by modest boat. At the beginning of the bridge, there's also another spot to launch your kayak. It's also a exceptional place for watching sunrises and sunsets, along with spotting birds such as pelicans, hawks, cranes and great blue Herons. The water bridge trail cuts straight through and over the marshes of the brackish Davis Canal, between two rows of beach homes and ending at the 9th Place beach access.
Finally, our bungalow is family owned and operated. We live in Southport and can be comfortably reached for assistance. We also recommend visiting our associated Facebook page to learn all about what our area offers and the things to do and see here.

Strategies to get the perfect Wilmington, NC vacation property experience:

How to get the best rental value:

  • To find the best value, shift your family's Wilmington, NC vacation week to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant weather, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
  • Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
  • 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 vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
  • Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for more information.
  • Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitor guide magazines that include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Choosing and booking the perfectvacation home:

  • Choose your vacation dates and maximum budget.
  • Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your family needs. Nature walk to ocean-kid & dog friendly, shaded fenced yard and close to beach! has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
  • Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is often available on booking pages. If not, contact the property management company before you book the rental. Note that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is best for your vacation.
  • If there's a particular Wilmington, NC beach you are enamored with, search for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
  • Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
  • Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your host before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or may be applied to your agreement.

Considerations for your stay:

  • Be sure you get the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental home.
  • During check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
  • Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents many issues.
  • Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a fantastic source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
  • Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
  • Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
  • Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to make sure you haven't forget anything. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Go through the property one final time and look for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition.
  • Did you have a great vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide comments. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
