About this property
Great Family Get-Away, Walk to Beach & Restaurants, Big Fenced Yard
"Paws & Relax” in this one-level, 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom home built in 2021. Come and enjoy this modern and comfortable home in it's first rental year. The open floor plan makes a perfect family gathering place for entertaining, dining, watching TV, playing board games, and just enjoying family time. The large fenced yard gives your pooches a great place to play.
The kitchen has modern amenities and all of the standard kitchen equipment one may need to host their family including drip coffee maker, toaster, blender, all the cooking and baking essentials, 16 qt stock pot, dishware & flatware, dishwasher, and refrigerator/freezer with ice maker Due to the airy and spacious open floor plan of the main living area, the cook of the family is sure not to be left out of the fun.
The bunk room offers two twin over full bunk beds great for the kids. The other spacious guest room offers a queen bed and large closet. Both guest rooms have easy access to the shared full bathroom with tub. Right off the main living area is the primary guest suite with a king bed and private bath with walk in shower and huge walk in closet. There are smart TVs equipped with Fire TV and streaming service for viewing local channels and basic cable in all of the bedrooms as well as in the main living space. Netflix and Hulu are included.
The entrance to the large screened-in porch overlooking the big fenced in yard is just off the kitchen and main living area. Outside you will find patio seating, a picnic table for outdoor dining and charcoal kettle grill. The front and back yard are nicely landscaped with beautiful old live oak trees.
All bed linens and guest towels are provided. Bedding includes fitted sheets, flat sheets, and pillowcases that will be freshly laundered and placed in a bundle on each bed and lightweight comforters or quilts. Since we are not overly strict regarding dogs on the furniture and beds, blankets are not provided so guests are requested to provide their own pet blankets to cover couches and beds. A washer and dryer are also available. Reliable and fast internet service is provided to enable guests to stay connected. Beach chairs, a beach umbrella, and beach cart are provided and located in the garage. Guests are also invited to store their own beach stuff in the garage, however cars are to be parked in the driveway only. The driveway can accommodate up to 3 vehicles. Please do not park on the grass as it may cause damage especially if wet.
The home is located in a tranquil and wooded neighborhood but still close enough to hear the surf at high tide. The beach access is located a short walk (approx. 4 blocks) at the end of the street. At the other end of the street, you will find the Oak Island Nature Park with butterfly garden, picnic area, and fishing pier. And within a few blocks, you will have your choice of several restaurants, shops, and ice cream parlors.

About the host
Hosted by Sue Messina
Recently retired from 30+ years with the Federal Government, I moved to coastal North Carolina from the DC area for it's great weather, friendly people, and beautiful beaches. I chose Oak Island to buy a vacation rental property because of its family and dog-friendly beaches, close proximity to Wilmington and Southport, and great area attractions. I hope you enjoy your vacation at my property and fall in love with the Oak Island like I have.
