Kick off your shoes, relax, breathe in the ocean air, you're on beach time now. You have arrived at your Ideal Little Beach Cottage located in the woodland area of Oak Island, where the sound of the ocean and birds compete for your attention.

You're welcomed at the front door with a pair of North Carolina rocking chairs and the sound of the wind chimes blowing in the breeze. Step inside to your new home away from home. You will find an open floor plan and plenty of light. The simple but comfortable living room couches invite you to sit down for a while. Unwind under the cooling breezes of the palm-bladed ceiling fan. Pick up and read one of the books on the North Carolina coast.

In the spotless kitchen, you will find refreshed lighting and a ceramic tiled floor. The cupboards are packed full of dishes, cookware, modest appliances, and glasses. As we appreciate to prepare you will find everything is supplied for you to prepare delicious vacation meals. Alternatively, a list of my favorite eateries and menus are included if you decide to not prepare during your stay.

Open the sliding glass doors and walk into the pleasing screened porch. It's the ideal place to sip your morning coffee, appreciate an evening drink or read a book curled up on a chair on a rainy day, listening to the storm outside. The porch offers vistas of the sand garden and planted flowering beds with handmade ceramic sculptures. On the concrete patio, you will find a dining table to savor meals al fresco. An outdoor shower fed from the garden hose is available for a fast rinse of the ocean water.

Back inside walk down the hallway where the laundry room sits behind folding doors. The primary bedroom is light and airy with modern design furnishings. The queen-size bed is cozy and ensures a restful nighttime's sleep, dreaming of waves and sand. Off the primary bedroom is the ensuite bath; it is well lit, clean, and fresh. Two simple twin beds are in the second bedroom with wall-mounted reading lights overhead. A modern maple dresser and mirror complete the room. The second bathroom is simple and clean with a tiled floor. All linens are supplied for your stay including two sets of bath towels for each guest. Cleaning supplies are also supplied for your use.

Now it's time to head to the real star of the island, the beach. It's a short distance by bicycle or car with over 60 public beach access points. No matter the time of the year your time spent at the beach will be memorable.

How to get the best Brunswick area vacation rental experience:

When to visit & When to reserve a rental home:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. To find the best rental for your budget, we strongly suggest reserving in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• The sooner your group can reserve a home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are reserved early. Reserving your vacation property six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• 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 rate.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which normally will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Brunswick area area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guides contain coupons for local tours and attractions.

Use filters to search efficiently:

• First, have your group choose a vacation week and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Perfect Little Beach Cottage for your stay on Oak Island has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly available online. Otherwise, contact the property owner before you reserve the property. Remember that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds. You'll need to work out what configuration is suitable for your group.
• Does your group require special amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional fees or charges might be applied to your agreement.

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the owner's phone number to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• During arrival, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents lots of problems.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking regulations is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Double-check every room of the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at departure. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for any damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever possible. If the manager is not available, take photos of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a wonderful stay? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property manager was wonderful, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
