Welcome to House of Ty, freshly featured on Season Four of HGTV's Battle on the Beach as Team Ty Pennington's home! Previous guests of the property will do a double take when they walk into this striking home after renovations finished in early 2024. Upon entering the home, guests' eyes will go upward to the gorgeous wooden beams lining the vaulted ceiling before meandering to take in the other rustic, wooden accents throughout.

With granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and enough kitchen supplies to provide for your entire family, this impressive kitchen will make you want to stay in and prepare every meal - seating is available for eight guests to dine.

The living space provides enough seating for the entire family and overlooks the sand and sun. Sit back and relax as you watch your favorite show on the flat-screen TV. Walk out the ocean side door to experience the salty breeze off the Atlantic Ocean from under the covered porch. After a day on the beach, rinse off the sand with ease in the enclosed outdoor shower.

There are three bedrooms, two of which have a sliding glass door leading to the oceanfront porch. The bunk room sleeps two comfortably. Please note the dimensions of the top bunk are modest and are constructed for your tiny little adventurer!

The game room is ideal for an evening of family fun. When the kids go to bed it can turn into a bar and lounge for leisurely card games. Painted a forest green, the ambiance is very alluring to creatives alike! With four comfortable chairs, this round table seats four.

Convenient to local eateries, stores, parks and attractions. Whether your idea of a vacation is taking long naps in the island breeze, exploring local landmarks or teeing up for 18 holes at one of the area's playable but challenging golf courses, you will find your island home at House of Ty!

How to get the best vacation home experience:

When to reserve a Cape Fear area rental home & When to go:

• To find the most suitable rental home within your budget, we highly recommend booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at Cape Fear area restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer.
• The sooner you can reserve a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are booked very early. Booking your rental home six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Winter holidays are excellent times to plan and book your vacation 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 discount.
• Property managers typically offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for details.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental property doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, travel guide magazines have money saving offers on local restaurants, attractions, and tours.

Finding the best vacation home in Oak Island:

• Begin by choosing your vacation dates and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your family requires. A Summer Fling: Gorgeous Vintage Coastal Home with Game Room has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is almost always accessible online. Otherwise, call the property owner before reserving the rental. Note that most properties list the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You will need to work out what is best for your vacation.
• Is your group looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include amenity lists and search filters. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the best rental.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
• Do your family pets travel with you? 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. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Pet fees or applied to your agreement.

Tips to have a smooth stay:

• Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Document any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately e-mail them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are beneficial if a dispute is filed.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or coffee maker. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief text message prevents many problems.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! 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 fine dining?
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your things!) by locking the property while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from 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 great vacation? Many rental managers make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
