Feeling down? Some quality time with family and friends at this classic beach bungalow is just the Remedy you're looking for! Nap in the hammock as the ocean breeze sweeps over you, gather on the covered porch for peaceful conversation as you watch the rolling waves or walk across the street to comb the sand for sea-borne treasures.

An eye-catching tile backsplash and bright white cabinetry welcome guests into the kitchen, where two barstools at the center island allow you to keep the family chef company as they prepare meals. Totally outfitted with serving and cookware, you'll find everything you need to serve up simple family favorites or prepare the fresh catch of the day. The open-concept design flows into the dining area, where the glass top tale seats six comfortably. In the living room, a couch, adore seat and pair of armchairs provides plenty of space to gather together to watch a favorite movie on the enormous TV or gaze at the sea as you watch pelicans and gulls swoop for their next meal.

To the east, two bedrooms with queen beds share hall access to a full bathroom with a standard tub/shower combo. The oceanfront bedroom on this side also provides an armchair and a TV for personal entertainment. On the west side of the home, the oceanfront king bedroom connects to the bunkroom via a Jack and Jill bath with a double vanity. The bunkroom is furnished with a twin-over-twin bunk bed and a futon that provides the ideal additional hang out space. (Please note that the top bunk is rated for a max. weight of 120 lbs.) Each of these bedrooms provides a TV as well.

The covered front porch is furnished with a pair of wooden Adirondack chairs as well as a pair of higher Captain's chairs that really let you drink in the view. Underneath the shade of the home, a circle of classic wooden rockers beckons you to sit together and appreciate the sea breeze, while the classic wooden picnic table is the ideal spot to dine outdoors. The enclosed outdoor shower makes rinsing off after a day on the beach simple, and when it is time to hit the beach, less than 400 feet takes you to Oak Island's famed white sands via the 13th Place West Beach Access. For those with mobility concerns, the accessible access at 10th Place West is still less than 800 feet from your doorstep!

Tips for getting the perfect Oak Island rental home experience:

When to book a Brunswick area rental & When to go:

• Summertime is high season in the Brunswick area area. To find the best value, change your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• The earlier your group can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your vacation home six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Some hosts offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. It's always a good idea to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies usually offer customers an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Brunswick area visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines have deals for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

How to choose the perfect rental in Oak Island:

• Choose vacation dates and maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group needs. Remedy: Updated Carolina Cottage with Ocean Views has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Brunswick area rentals search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is normally accessible online. Otherwise, email the property owner before booking your home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what is suitable for your vacation.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? If so, use a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before booking
• Traveling with pets? 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 property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional pet fees or might be applied to your invoice.

Advice for a wonderful stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and add a note with the instructions to your smartphone.
• To make sure that no damages are linked to your stay, make note of any problem areas during arrival. Call the property manager right away to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask questions during your stay.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions 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 an incredible source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Double-check the rental property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Did your family have a fantastic vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
