Three Seas – See why the sea is your happy place. This excellent bungalow is located in the calming wooded section of Oak Island and characteristic of the area’s Yaupon trees, these impressive, gnarled trunks greet you as you arrive. For painless unloading of your traveling essentials, pull into the roomy 2 car garage. A great place to store any of the beach toys you brought along.

Imagine appreciating your morning coffee on the front porch in this peaceful neighborhood as you plan the day’s activities. The living area has tons of natural light & comfortable seating. With the flick of a switch, appreciate the ambiance of a fire any season of the year. Watch your favorite shows on the TV or bring home movies on DVD to relive old memories as you make new ones. Learn about the local area through the artwork & acclaimed NC artist William Mangum’s coffee table book.

The completely equipped open kitchen (including Toaster Oven, Mixer, & Blender) is simple to prepare & serve from. There is ample space for storing your groceries. The dining table seats 6 & the close by kitchen bar seats 2.

If you prefer al fresco dining, savor the picnic table in the back & add flavor to your meal using the gas grille. After dinner get comfortable in the 6 Adirondack chairs & watch for fireflies. You can even toast marshmallows using the fire ring.

There is sleeping for 6 in the 3 handsome bedrooms & a pull-out couch in the living area for 2 more. 2 bedrooms (Queen-sized beds) share a hall bath with a tub/shower combination. The Primary bedroom (Queen) has an EnSuite bathroom with a walk in shower. Bring your bath bombs & soak away the anxiety of everyday life. No need to live out of suitcases as each bedroom has closets & dressers to unpack. Use the supplied full-sized Washer & Dryer to perhaps pack lighter & have room to pack souvenirs on your trip home.

The beach access is a short drive or walk down the street. There is one bicycle supplied for your use or you can rent bicycles or a golf cart. As you return from your fun in the sun, unload in the garage & wash away the salt & sand in the outdoor shower (hot/cold water) just out back.

One of the features of this bungalow is a convenient desk space with natural light & direct access to the back deck if you prefer to work outdoors. If you pack your yoga mat, there is a cavernous additional room flooded with natural light for exercise or play.

Just as 3 bodies of water converge in our area, so will you, your family & friends at Three Seas Cottage. This is the place to make fun memories long remembered.

Tips and Tricks to get the very best vacation rental experience:

Finding the best rental value:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer rental homes during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer time is high season in the Cape Fear area area. To book the best rental within budget, we highly recommend reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular Cape Fear area attractions. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Cape Fear area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer their guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any days missed as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitors guide magazines have coupons for nearby shops and restaurants.

Planning and choosing your Cape Fear area vacation home:

• Choose vacation dates and spending budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Save 10% On Your Stay When Booked by 4\/30, Wonderful Island Home Only Minutes to the Beach has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, reach out to the property owner before you book the property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches. You'll need to determine what bed configuration is right for your trip.
• If your family is traveling with pets, search for a pet-friendly property. Ask for details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Some property managers charge pet deposits and fees.
• Are you looking for special amenities? Most websites include search filters with amenity lists. Amenity filters help you quickly remove less-optimal properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Have a great stay:

• Add the host's information to your phone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, intercom or coffee maker. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent many issues.
• Keep the property locked while you are gone! Don't let burglars ruin your family vacation.
• Record any damages to the rental upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be useful if a dispute is filed.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, take a walk through the rental to make sure you've collected all of your things. Check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden treasure. Clean out 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? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was inoperable 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.
