Because OKI is a South-Facing Beach, you can watch both the Sunrise & Sunset over the water.

One of the standouts in the serviceware are the pretty dishes on which to serve your oysters on the ½ shell. Just outside the Kitchen door is a table to serve your dinner Al Fresco. A modest propane grille is also on the back deck. A Full-Sized Propane Grille awaits your seafood caught or bought downstairs. You can serve your meals in the open air underneath the bungalow at the picnic table. While you are waiting for dinner to be prepared, play a game of Corn Hole on the regulation-sized boards.

Inside, with convenient proximity to the kitchen, is the dining area. Additional seating for 4 at the kitchen bar. Watch your favorite shows on the Substantial Screen Intelligent TV in the Living Area. With tons of comfortable seating, you can even watch the waves roll in across the street. The huge Coffee Table is ideal for playing one of the various games or assembling a puzzle.

If you wish to hang your towels to dry in the sunshine & smell of the fresh ocean breeze, there is an extendable laundry line downstairs.

Grab a beach read (numerous of local stories), a cup of coffee or a glass of wine & head downstairs to savor the comfortable & roomy Adirondack Chairs, Rocker or curl up on the Bench. Imagine yourself as a character in your book as you smell the salt air & feel the gentle winds off the sea. Have a friendly competition for the best chess or checkers player at the picnic table. After a delicious dinner, gather on the bottom level to watch your favorite movie using the Roku projector on the screened wall. This is definitely a unique feature of this bungalow!

Our top Vacation rental home tips:

When to reserve a Brunswick area rental home & When to go:

• Reserve your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules usually open 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many families book their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Book your vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host whether your family qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to add trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines contain deals for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Finding the perfect rental home in Oak Island:

• Select a group lead, select your dates, and choose a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Dog Friendly w\/ Spectacular Ocean Views has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available on booking pages. If not, email or call the host before you reserve your rental. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to determine what configuration is right for your vacation family.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you'll need to search for a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get details on breed, weight, and type requirements. Note that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.
• Is your group looking for special amenities? Most websites include amenity lists and search filters. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair accessibility, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.

More considerations:

• Store the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• Property managers are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Lock your rental while you are out. Protect your property!
• Document any issues with the property at check in, and immediately contact the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will increase your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can typically help. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed all belongings at check-out. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on good feedback to propel new reservations. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your experience find their best rental home. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded expeditiously to fix it.
