There's plenty of outdoor space for the rest of the family to appreciate as well, starting with the wrap around porch, which is partially covered on both the front and rear sections and furnished with plenty of classic rocking chairs and end tables. Cook out on the included gas grille while the kids play in the fenced backyard. There's also an enclosed outdoor shower with hot and cold water, which makes rinsing sand off a breeze. Convenient to both the ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway, you can walk south to the public beach access at The Point or north to savor a meal at trendy waterfront eatery Lonerider's. You can even save some space when packing for your trip, as this home provides beach chairs, an umbrella and beach toys for your use.

Tips to get the perfect Carolina Beach vacation home experience:

When to go & When to reserve a Carolina Beach rental home:

• Book your vacation rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available 12 months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rental homes during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years Eve gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Book your Carolina Beach rental in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
• Hosts and Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Remember to ask your property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers often 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 costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides have deals for nearby accommodations and attractions.

Selecting the perfect vacation rental in Oak Island:

• Select dates and spending budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and the configuration your group needs. Daze Off: Spacious Home in Walking Distance to Beach and Waterway has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often available online. Otherwise, email the property manager before you book your home. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
• Are you traveling with furry, four-legged family members? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Pet fees or costs applied to your agreement.
• If there's a specific Carolina Beach beach you love, search for properties that are either close by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

Considerations for your stay:

• Add the property manager's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Make a record of any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We specifically recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that can be helpful if damages are assessed.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like troublesome visitors disrupting your peace. Employ the golden rule for best judgement. If they like you, locals might even recommend great local food and attractions you would have never otherwise known about!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the property to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property managers rely on good ratings to stimulate new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. 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.
