Hang a sign on your office door that proclaims you've Gone Beachin' and escape to this inviting condo just a short walk from the white sands of Oak Island. Finest of all, you can even bring Fido along for your trip, as up to two dogs are accepted here per stay.

The comfortable living room offers plenty of upsized seating to sink down into after an adventure-filled day and savor a favorite show on the wall-mounted Roku TV. The sturdy dining table seats four for meals or family game nights - three more can sit at the adjacent breakfast bar.

The convenient kitchen is supplied with modern appliances and everything you'll need to prepare family recipes or the catch of the day. Thanks to the open-concept floor plan, the chef can still be part of the conversation while they work their magic. It's painless to make sure you don't get stuck with wet beach towels for the next day or the ride home, as the washer and dryer are located in the laundry closest just off the kitchen. A half bath is located in this area as well.

Down the hall, you'll find the bunk room, furnished with a queen bed and a twin-over-twin bunk bed. A Jack and Jill style bathroom with a shower connects through to a bedroom furnished with a king bed and a wall-mounted TV for personal entertainment. This room also features direct access to the unit's balcony, cheerfully decorated with metal sea life wall-sculptures and complete with string lights for a soft glow at nighttime. This covered porch is also accessible from the living room. The primary bedroom features a king size bed and its own TV as well, but this space also includes an ensuite bath featuring a shower so you can get ready in privacy.

Conveniently located in walking distance of fashionable local dining options, an arcade, beach stores, ice cream stores and nightlife, not to mention the sand and surf, this trendy condo complex also features charming community amenities. Take a dip in the pool to cool off, grille up some burgers and picnic at the included tables, and heave a sign of relief as you load your bags on the elevator instead of lugging it up the steps.

When you're ready to take a break from the everyday, Gone Beachin' is ready to welcome you!

This unit also accepts nightly and off-season monthly stays.

Please note that the pictured electric fireplace is not available for guest use.

The Ocean Walk pool is open annually from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Specific condo communities may keep the pool open past Labor Day depending on the homeowner association's recommendation.

Tips to get the best vacation rental experience:

Cost saving strategies:

• Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in the Brunswick area area. To find the best value, consider changing your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and October offer excellent temperatures, less crowded beaches, and greatly reduced traffic.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer their guests an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for details.
• Many property management companies and vacation rental houses supply Brunswick area area visitors guides which include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

How to pick the perfect rental in the Brunswick area area:

• Choose vacation week and maximum budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration you need. Gone Beachin' : Dog-friendly Condo Close to Beach has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is usually available online. If not, reach out to the property manager before you book the home. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is right for your vacation.
• If your group is traveling with pets, you'll need to find a rental that allows animals. Make sure to ask for details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Does your group require specific amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental home.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all necessary amenities are available before booking

During your stay:

• Add the host's phone number to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, A/V setup or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents quite a few concerns.
• Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let burglars spoil your family vacation.
• To ensure that damages aren't linked to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the property manager immediately to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a terrific resource to find the best local spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Just before checking out, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through 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 manager isn't available, take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your family have a wonderful time? Most rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was defective 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 review.
