A short and straight walk to the beach with no side streets or busy traffic! This freshly constructed 5 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom home on OKI has all the amenities and space you've been searching for! Highlights include a reverse and open floor plan, extravagant finishes with a coastal vibe throughout, and 4 covered porches for calming and entertaining outside. Here, you're only a fast walk from the grocery store, stores, eateries (Salt 64, Pelican Seafood, and Back 2 Shuckers!), ice cream, and even miniature golf and the arcade! Plus, you're more than welcome to use the beach gear — like chairs and a wagon — for the short walk to the sandy shore.

Upon walking into the great room and kitchen, one of the first things you'll notice is how bright and airy this space is! The vaulted ceilings and windows allow for an abundance of natural light. The main living room is delightfully decorated with a huge flatscreen TV and modern, coastal-themed furnishings. The broad kitchen is well-equipped and features a enormous center island with bar seating, quartz countertops, a high-end gas range, stainless steel appliances, bespoke cabinetry, and all the supplies needed to prepare a meal for your group. This floor also has a half bathroom and a formal dining space with seating for 8. The first covered porch is off the kitchen and faces due West for beautiful sunset vistas over the wetlands. The second covered deck is massive and features an outdoor dining table that seats up to 8 people.

The vaulted ceilings continue into the master bedroom, where you will find a opulent king bed, sizable flatscreen TV, and ensuite bathroom with double vanity and a cavernous walk-in shower. Heading downstairs, you'll find all 4 of the guest bedrooms on the first floor. With 3 queen bedrooms, each with a flatscreen TV, this is the ideal home for multiple couples traveling together or a multi-generational family. Two of the queen bedrooms have an ensuite bathroom outfitted with modern fixtures and a tub/shower combination. The last queen bedroom shares a roomy Jack and Jill bathroom with the bunk bed bedroom (twin size bed on top, double size bed on the bottom).

There are two covered porches that can be accessed from downstairs as well, one on the front with rocking chairs to appreciate your morning coffee, and the other with a private wooded view; both have stairs to the ground floor. Under the home, you'll find all the beach gear, a gas grille, and an outdoor shower to rinse off the sand after a long day at the beach. With so many amenities, like cable, wireless internet and hotel-quality linens, this Oak Island vacation rental will have you and your family or group coming back year after year.

Booking the best rental experience:

When to go & When to book:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To get the best value, consider shifting your family's Brunswick area vacation dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and October offer warmer temperatures, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. 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? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies often offer their guests an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation charges, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Many rental management companies supply Brunswick area area visitors guide magazines which include special offers, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Brunswick area visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Selecting the perfect rental:

• Choose a designated group leader, choose your dates, and select a spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Beautiful Home with a Partial Ocean View & Reverse Floor Plan. Carolina in my Mind has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking pages. If not, email the host before booking the rental. Note that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what configuration is optimal for your trip.
• If your family is bringing pets, you will need a pet-friendly rental. Request information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge additional pet fees.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental home.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental

More tips for your visit:

• Take a copy of the property manager's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental home.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, elevator or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents lots of problems.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves spoil your trip.
• Document any issues with the rental upon arrival, and immediately send them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are valuable if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome vacationers bothering your quiet neighborhood. Practice the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and places you would have not otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• At departure, complete a walk-through to confirm you didn't forget anything. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to compel future reservations. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to remedy it.
