****Renovated for 2024 - Appreciate the newly re-designed kitchen with stainless-steel appliances, redecorated living area, and new floor throughout!!!! ****

Perfectly named from a time when a beach vacation was calming. Have a cookout on the charcoal grille with family and friends or sit out on the oceanfront deck and take in impressive ocean vistas, sounds of the waves rolling onto shore, and the healing salt sea air. Watch the kids play or the surf fisherman bring in the day's catch on the sandy shore below. "These Are The Days" offers great opportunity to slow down and appreciate unobstructed, expansive vistas of the beach, an outdoor shower, foot wash station, and the huge windows on the ocean side of the home that maximize the ocean vistas as you relax and relax in the living and dining areas. Watch the sunrise over breakfast or savor a charming sunset dinner. These Are The Days is also dog friendly, so bring your furry family members and furry friends along (only dogs under 30 lbs) to have some time away too. Close to all that Oak Island has to offer, These Are The Days will leave lasting memories year after year.

Booking the best Oak Island rental experience:

Finding your best deal:

• Summer is high season in Oak Island. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable properties. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book an oceanfront rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months.
• The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Reserving your rental 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental home.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective vacation rental company or host if your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for specifics.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, travel guide magazines contain discounts for nearby tours, shops, and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Start by selecting your trip dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration your family needs. 2BR\/1BA, Oceanfront Cottage,Amazing Views of Ocean, Dog Friendly, Sleeps 6 has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed types is regularly available online. If not, call the host before you reserve the vacation home. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds. You will need to work out what configuration is best for your family.
• If there's a specific Carolina Beach beach you simply love, search for rentals that are either nearby, or those that cater to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some do not. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the owner about pets before booking.

During your stay:

• Get the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental property.
• To make certain damages are not linked to your visit, inspect the rental for any problem areas during arrival. Make contact with the property manager right away to report your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call prevents a lot of issues.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Lock your rental property while you're out! Don't let burglars spoil your family vacation.
• Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and look for damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the manager isn't available, remember to take pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on great reviews to stimulate future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to solve it.
