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. Entirely 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 sizable 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 to get the optimal Brunswick area rental home experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• 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 groups book their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Summertime is high season in Oak Island. To get the best value, consider shifting your family's Brunswick area vacation dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Brunswick area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host whether your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites frequently offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local Brunswick area visitors guide upon arrival. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great information, visitors guide magazines contain money saving offers on local shops and restaurants.

How to choose the best vacation rental in Oak Island:

• Select a group lead, select your vacation week, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Remedy: Updated Carolina Cottage with Ocean Views has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our search.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is commonly available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property manager before booking the vacation home. Note that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what is right for your family.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you will need a pet-friendly vacation rental. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Note that some hosts charge additional pet fees.
• Looking for particular amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.

Advice for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents a lot of problems.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Upon arrival, record any issues with the property and immediately alert the owner. Record all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental property to confirm you've collected everything. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the host whenever possible. If the property manager isn't available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Hosts rely on great reviews to compel new reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
