New home constructed in Oct 2021! On a peaceful, residential street, never worry about being surrounded by event-goers. The streets safe for bicycle riding and walking, far enough away from the center of town, but close enough to be a 10-min drive to the amenities. Drive (2-3 min) or walk (10-15min) to the quietest part of the beach where you can see both the splendid sunrises and the impressive sunsets. The home is outfitted with all basic conveniences down to the bath towels, bed linens, cleaning supplies, paper products and even condiments in the refrigerator. Open, cavernous floor plan, comfortable living area, and cozy bedrooms for your time away from the beach. Puzzles, books, games, wi-fi, and TV's in every bedroom for your entertainment. Even a cute little "leave a book, take a book" box on the walk to the beach.

Bedroom 1, the master, includes a King bed and double vanity, with a double head shower bigger than you can imagine!
Bedroom 2, with a Queen bed includes a dresser to unpack all those clothes and feel like you actually live there rather than living out of a suitcase.
Bedroom 3, with 2 double beds accepts for those who like to share a room sleep-over style.

Bathrooms: both contain towels, basic soaps/shampoos and select toiletries in case you forget what you need, or simply to lighten your load when packing. The master includes a HUGE shower with two shower heads!

The front porch and the back screened-in porch make for great conversation, book reading, appreciating beverages or just winding down.

Below the home, aside from plenty of parking, there is a gas grille, a Blackstone flat top griddle, and an electric smoker available for responsible use. There is also an outdoor shower for rinsing off all that additional beach sand.

Tricks and tips for getting the perfect Oak Island vacation rental experience:

When to visit Oak Island & When to book:

• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the Cape Fear area area. Reserve your Cape Fear area vacation in the Fall or Spring shoulder seasons to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• In the Cape Fear area area, The earlier you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved very early. Reserving your rental home up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans. Ask your property manager if special discounts are available for your family before you book.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Cape Fear area area visitors guide magazines which will include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Cape Fear area visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Choosing the perfect rental home:

• Select a group leader, choose your vacation dates, and select a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. A Shore Escape - new to rental market! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking pages. Otherwise, email the host before reserving the home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Acceptable types of pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the host about pet restrictions before booking.

More tips for your visit:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the instructions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Record any issues with the rental at check in, and immediately contact the property manager. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be helpful if damages are assessed.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to confirm you haven't leave anything behind. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did your group have a fantastic time? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
