If you're searching for the ideal vacation spot for building family memories, then take a moment to Look and Sea this classic beach bungalow for what it really is: your next home away from home! Welcoming up to one dog per stay and featuring a ground level game room complete with a pool table, you're sure to have a blast whether you're hanging at the home or have ventured across the street to play in the sand and surf.

The comfortable living room offers enough seating for the whole family to gather around the wall-mounted intelligent TV as you stream your favorite shows. Watch the light play on the water as you gaze out the window at the horizon.

The breakfast bar offers seating along three sides and fits six comfortably. The compact kitchen supplies all the cookware and serving items you'll need to dish up family favorites or the catch of the day. Start the morning by brewing a traditional cup of coffee for the whole home, or bring a selection of individual drink pods instead to savor a more personalized pick me up.

Wake up to vistas of the waves each morning from the ocean facing bedroom, furnished with a queen bed. The bunkroom offers a double bed and a twin-over-twin bunk bed. Both bedrooms are equipped with ceiling fans for comfort and wall-mounted intelligent TVs for personal entertainment. These rooms share hall access to a full bathroom with a step-in tile shower stall.

Drink in vistas of the Atlantic from the ocean-facing porch, which is only accessible from the living room, and where you can relax in the sea breeze as the dog or kiddos play at your feet safely. On the landing outside the kitchen, a constructed-in bench is conveniently located for prying off sandy water shoes before venturing inside. Tucked away behind the foot of the stairs is an enclosed outdoor shower with hot and cold water, ideal for rinsing off babies or a fur-infant alike, and outdoor seating is available under the shade of the home facing the water.

You'll also find the converted garage space serves as a game room, complete with a pool table and dart board. It's an ideal spot to hang out on rainy days or when you need a break from the sun. A half bathroom on this level is convenient for fast trips off the beach, and a full-sized washer and dryer here means there's no need to haul wet towels upstairs after a day on the beach.

And when it is time to hit the sand, you'll find a variety of beach equipment and cart to transport it in as you venture across the street to the public access point only 200 feet from your door. There is also a charcoal grille supplied for nights where you'd rather prepare outside.

Now that you've had a chance to Look and Sea what this adorable bungalow has to offer, what are you waiting for? Book your stay today and build family memories that will last a lifetime on your well-deserved beach vacation.

Tips and Tricks to get the perfect vacation property experience:

When to go & When to reserve a rental home:

• The sooner you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are reserved very early. Booking your vacation home six - twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental.
• Summer is high season in Oak Island. To get the best value, consider shifting your group's vacation to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant weather, fewer crowds, and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Wrightsville Beach 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 the beach.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your group qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites typically offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost you 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for more information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines contain discounts for local shops and restaurants.

Use filters to narrow your rental search:

• Start by having your family decide on the best dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration you need. Look and Sea: Dog-friendly Ocean View Cottage with Pool Table has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is often accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the property owner before booking your rental. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what configuration is best for your vacation.
• Traveling with pets? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional pet fees or charges applied to your invoice.
• If there's a specific Wrightsville Beach beach you simply love, keep an eye out for properties that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking

More tips for your stay:

• Add the host's phone number to your smartphone. Take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of difficulties.
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking the rental when you are out, just like you would at home.
• Record any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the host. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be useful if damages are assessed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like obnoxious vacationers bothering your peace and quiet. Use the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have not otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to take kids for a treat, 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 belongings. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean 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 fantastic stay? Many rental managers make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
