Are you ready to step Into The Mystic? Recently featured on Season Four of HGTV's Battle on the Beach as Team Alison Victoria's home, you'll appreciate the designer touches and broad renovations finished in early 2024.

With the beach right at your back door, savor the tranquility of an early morning beach walk where you can catch dolphins playing in the early morning sun or snuggle up on the deck as you get lost in the stars of the midnight sky. The ocean side covered deck is the ideal place to relax in the rocking chairs as you sip an icy cold drink from the sizable ice chest. It has a bar with stools, and a table and chairs. The deck box is outfitted with beach items and toys, to sink your toes into the warm sand and appreciate the ocean breeze. 

Savor your morning coffee on the new quartzite counters as you gaze out at the grand ocean view from the picture window above the sink. Munch on some breakfast at the gigantic kitchen island. This beachfront vacation-ready home sleeps eight with two full bathrooms and one half bathroom. The warm and inviting living space makes this home the ideal place for the next family vacation, complete with infant and kid-friendly amenities, or a friend reunion. The upstairs movie room has a 65" T.V. and provides valuable additional space to relax; the sectional within is huge and comfortable enough for two to take a mid-afternoon nap, or even to utilize as an additional sleeping space.

With four TVs, you have access to streaming services like Hulu, Hulu Live, Disney+ and ESPN+. You also have games and activities to keep you entertained as you rest and relax inside. Unwind, renew and spend time with appreciated ones at Into The Mystic.

Guests with allergies should note that although no family pets are allowed for guest stays, dogs may occasionally be present during owner reservations.

Finding the best Oak Island rental experience:

How to get the best value:

• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families book their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in the Brunswick area area. To get the largest vacation home within budget, we suggest reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll benefit from lower rental rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at popular attractions and restaurants. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your family qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites usually offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost you between 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 disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guide magazines contain offers and deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

Filter your search:

• Select your vacation dates and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Into the Mystic: Family-friendly, Oceanfront Home on Island's West Beach has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, email the property manager before reserving the vacation property. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull out couches in living rooms. You will need to work out what configuration is best for your family.
• Do your family pets travel with you? 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. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Extra fees or costs could be applied to your contract.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Know before you go:

• Get the host's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents a lot of problems.
• Lock your rental while you are out. Protect your property!
• To make certain damages are not linked to your visit, make a record of any problem areas during check in. Get in touch with the host right away to relay any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be a great resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can often help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• On check-out day, complete a walk-through to make sure you didn't forget any personal items. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the property manager is not available, remember to take photos and video of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave feedback! Hosts rely on good reviews to stimulate more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
