Welcome to our family beach home, with a partial sea view from the back deck and a front porch shaded by oak trees. Located in the peaceful Yaupon area of Oak Island, this “home away from home” is only steps away from the beach so you do not have to pay parking costs to savor the beach or pier. Appreciate handsome sunrises over the close by pier and spectacular sunsets along the beach. This ideal location is a short walk to eateries, coffee stores, and more! AND you’re just a 15-min. drive from the town of Southport or a 45-min. drive from the beach city of Wilmington, both historical locations with more waterside eateries and tons of family activities. So much to do - book while you can!

Our bungalow is a single story home with an open and airy feel. The main highlights are a enormous shaded front porch and sunny open back deck with peek-a-boo vistas of the ocean. Savor rocking on the decks or sitting on the swing seat and listening to the calming sound of the waves crashing on the beach.

The cozy historic town of Southport is 6 miles away and offers something fun for everybody! Boat tours, ferry to Bald Head Island, Waterfront Park, and a variety of waterfront eateries. The city of Wilmington is also only a 45 min.-drive away and while much busier than this area, it offers many fun family acitivities such as an aquarium, Jungle Rapids Family Fun Park, escape rooms, animal parks, and the historic riverwalk with waterfront eateries.

Tips and Tricks to get the best Wrightsville Beach rental experience:

Getting the most from your budget:

• June, July, and August are high season in the Wrightsville Beach area. To get the best value, consider changing your group's vacation week to the Spring or Fall seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant weather, less crowded beaches, and reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• Book your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacation rentals during holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your group.
• Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local Wrightsville Beach area magazine upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, visitor guide magazines have deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Finding the perfect rental in the Wrightsville Beach area:

• Start by choosing potential vacation weeks and a budget.
• Note the number beds and the configuration you need. Beach House Just Steps To The Ocean With Partial Sea View & No Parking Fees! has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Wrightsville Beach rentals search.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, reach out to the property management company before you reserve the vacation property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• If there's a particular Wrightsville Beach beach you simply love, search for homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before booking.
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Extra fees or costs might be applied to your agreement.

Tips for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Add a note with the directions to your smartphone, and take a printed copy.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your visit, make a record of any problem areas upon your arrival. Get in touch with the property manager right away to relay your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, stereo or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent quite a few problems.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your vacation home while you're away. Protect the owner's property and your stuff!
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to make sure you didn't forget any personal items. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take photos of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did your group have a terrific time? Many rental home management companies make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was terrific, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
