Our cozy updated 3BR cottage promises a fresh, clean and comfortable experience that is ideal for your family or friends beach week or weekend getaway. Close to everything Oak Island has to offer - sand, surf, fishing, boating and biking - whatever your heart desires. A well stocked kitchen to enjoy a dinner in or treat yourself to one of the many delicious Oak Island and Southport restaurants. Guests rave about the relaxing screened porch with the "Where Have You Been All My Life" hanging bed and the new back yard firepit. Come, relax and enjoy! Located in the Tranquil Harbor section of Oak Island, the home is 5 blocks from the beach where you can view the most unforgettable sunsets. The home is just around the corner from the free public boat launch so bring your kayaks or boat. Located on a quiet residential street, it is an easy stroll or bike ride to several restaurants, the Food Lion, Dairy Queen and shopping. Southport is just a short drive away for a day of shopping, dining, or a trip to Bald Head Island by ferry. If you are more adventurous, take the Fort Fisher ferry to Carolina Beach and have a drink at the tiki bar on the beach, or drive to Wilmington and explore the battleship and all the unique areas Wilmington has to offer. The welcome information provides all you need to know about easy access public beach parking, places to eat and things to do. If you are interested in renting bikes, kayaks and other beach toys we can help you arrange for them to be delivered to the house. Please just ask. The home has been stylishly decorated with maximum comfort in mind. Guests often comment on the cleanliness, comfortable beds and attention to detail. The house is only a 6 steps off the ground and all one level inside; perfect for guests with some mobility issues. There are three bedrooms that sleep six people total with king bed, a queen bed, and two twin beds. There is a master bathroom, a shared hall bathroom for the other two bedrooms. An outdoor shower is available to rinse off the salt and sand at the end of a day at the beach. Enjoy the backyard fire pit on a cool evening, or the piece de resistance, the screened porch with its table for six and a hanging bed. Take a nap or even spend the night on it. I promise the cool breeze of ocean air and the sounds of the island will lull you to a blissful sleep. The house comes with a fully stocked kitchen and plenty of other creature comforts to make you feel right at home. There is an outdoor grill for all you grill masters. There is high speed Wifi at the house and the TV has access to all the local channels as well as Hulu and Netflix. There is also access to Amazon Prime if you have an account. If you elect to disconnect, there are books and games available too. All linens and bath towels are included, as is body wash, shampoo, conditioner, kitchen soap, and cleaning supplies. We will provide you with a couple rolls of paper towels and toilet paper and trash bags to get you started. We do not provide beach towels so please don't forget to bring them with you. Please also plan to bring whatever else you need for the beach with you (or I can tell you where to rent beach stuff). The Bean is located 2 hours from Raleigh, 3 ½ hours from Charlotte and an easy 7 hour drive from the DMV metro area. There is no excuse not to visit this beautfiful island. A few days before your arrival we will send the code for the door and all the check-in procedures. It is very easy. You arrive, let yourself in and your vacation has begun. No keys to worry about. We are available to answer any questions you may have, so don't hesitate to ask. We want you to love the house and the area as much as we do! If we are not on the island ourselves, we have a house manager that is just minutes away if necessary. We ask for you to keep the number of guests to 6 or less, though we will permit an additional child under 2 years old. While our guests have full run of the house, we ask that you please respect the locked closet and shed. OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: Busy Season (May – August): We require a 3 night minimum. Any bookings made outside these parameters will be cancelled unless pre-approved by us first. Off Season (September – April): We require a 2 night minimum. Please contact us for discounts on any reservations longer than 7 days. Active Military & First Responders: We offer a 10% discount for all active military members and first responders (LEO, ambulance medics and firefighters) with valid ID. Please contact us either before or after booking to adjust the nightly rate. Check-in/Check-out: Check-in is anytime after 3pm. If arriving late at night, please be respectful of our neighbors. They all live there full-time and we want them to continue to like us. Check out is 10am. While we try to accommodate our guests as much as possible, check-in and check-out times during the busy season are strictly adhered to due to the short amount of time we have to prepare the house for the next guests. Pets: This is a no pet rental. Please don't ask if we will make an exception for your little Boo Boo because he is the best behaved dog ever. He is still a dog and we don't accept them. Travel Insurance: All guests are strongly encouraged to purchase travel insurance prior to their trip in case of emergency trip cancellation. This is especially crucial during hurricane season. Deposit - If you are new Air B&B please rest easy that the security deposit is not processed unless there's a problem after you leave. This money is not taken out of your account in advance. You may exhale now. I am a text or phone call away. I have a house manager very nearby if I am personally not on the island. There is a nature center, public boat access, and public pier just a few home sites away. We walk to the beach for exercise in the morning but carrying a donkey load of beach things on your back can make for an angry jaunt. Your car may be better than your back for long days on the shore. No loud shenanigans after 10 pm or midnight games of tag please...our neighbors will call us if the rukus gets to rukusitable. Hashtag sad face if the po po show show. While the house may be walking distance for some from the beach, restaurants and even a grocery store, a car is highly recommended to get around the island. The house has enough parking for three cars. READ THE HOUSE MANUAL for "Things Not To Forget!" during the stay such as beach umbrellas, coolers for the beach, beach towels, sunscreen, food to eat, toiletries, etc. Check in and out procedure listed there also. You can do absolutely everything on this island or nothing at all. Our home is perfect for small families, girls or guys weekends, or couple getaways. It's just not for smoking, raucous parties or inconsiderate people. If you are prone to any of those please don't make a reservation. IMPORTANT NOTICE: While growth and progress can be good, it can sometimes test our patience. This is one of those times. A house is being constructed next door. Because we cannot vouch for how often workers will be present or how long the house will take to complete, we have elected not to raise our rates for 2023 in consideration to our guests for the possibility of construction work next door during their stay. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Outdoor shower - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Music library - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 6 steps to reach entrance - Single level property - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a hospital - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the sea - On a river ### Things to do - Bicycles - Kayak - Tennis - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Bicycles - Garden - Unit size: 1,100 square feet ## Similar properties ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/83000000/82730000/82726600/82726570/8db38a88.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### House of Zen - Walk to the beach, Huge fenced back yard, Outdoor shower!

I loved the décor, and you can tell that Jenn takes pride in her rental. We enjoyed the back porch, including the amazing swing! We do not normally go on vacation to play games but we played games and put together puzzles both nights we were at the house. It was great bonding time with our family! The closet is FULL of different games and puzzles, more than I have ever seen a house offer! Jenn was helpful and quick to respond to any request that I had! She even goes as far as to provide coffee, sugar and creamer, which was enjoyed by my coffee loving family! Not only that but I can't rave enough about the beds! They were SO comfortable! The house was clean and well stocked. We enjoyed our time here and our time in Jenn's home, and we hope to come back in the future. ##### Allyson W.

When vacationing with littles, you’re ready to leave, but not this year. Jennifer was the perfect hostess and has her house ready to come in and just relax. This house is laid out perfectly for families with children because the master and master bath is on one side of the house and the kids on the other. The house is well stocked and made to feel like a “home” rather than a rental. Our family has used VRBO many times and haven’t yet found the perfect house to return to year after year, but this one fits all the check boxes. Until next year OKI ❤️ ##### Courtney S.

The check-in process was simple and easy. When we arrived at the house found it exactly as it was listed on the website. There was plenty of space for the four of us (2 adults/2 teens) to unwind and relax. The beach and other attractions were just a short drive or walk away. The kitchen allowed plenty of space to prepare and cook most of our meals while we were in town. Each of us took some time to enjoy the outdoor bed on the back porch too.

From the moment we booked this home to the time we left everything was perfect! The owner is so nice and easy to communicate with. Check-in was easy since there was an electronic door lock. Best part, no keys to keep track of. The home is super clean and decorated to perfection. Like a five star resort. Took a video just so I could remember how cute everything was. The welcome parrot was above and beyond fun. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked. There was even everything you would need for a fun day at the beach. No need to bring anything to this rental but your fun loving self! There are lots of great places to eat on the island as well as in the picturesque town of Southport. Don’t miss the boil on Wednesday's at the Turtle and pizza at pepperoni grill. We will definitely be back and want to bring our grand kids out so they can experience the “island”. Can’t wait to come back and spend more time at your home Jennifer! ##### Jan S.

We all loved the decorating. Naked Bean coffee, great shampoo, cotton sheets and towels, Netflix, the swingbed and table and chairs on the back porch, the welcome parrot all details that was added to making you feel pampered and special. You will hate you have to leave. ##### Tara D. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher M. Feb 19, 2019 #### Cozy NC Beach Home The home is in great condition, well maintained, has modern amenities (smart tv, Alexa controlled lights, etc.) and space to spread out! The owners provided stellar customer service and a nice to-do list for checkout items. Super close to nearby beach access. Southport has great restaurants and is a short drive away... or make a 1-hr trip over to Wilmington and spend the day. ##### Christopher M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Libby A. Nov 4, 2018 #### Gorgeous, sparkling clean and super host! My family and I loved everything about this place. The cottage is super clean, modern and sleek, but still quaint and homey. The location is central to everything we wanted to do from the beach to kayaking to great nearby restaurants! We walked or biked everywhere which was super convenient. The cottage amenities both indoors (e.g., super stocked kitchen, wonderful decorating touches, comfy bedrooms) and outdoors (e.g., fabulous screened porch with relaxing swinging bed and gathering area and well maintained, clean outdoor shower). My girlfriends and I plan to come back in the fall and will stay here again. I highly recommend this property! ##### Libby A. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Omni Charlotte Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Charlotte-Hotels-Omni-Charlotte-Hotel.h6961.Hotel-Information) > > [Motel Newstar Laval](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels-Motel-Newstar-Laval.h38421090.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels.d178315.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [The Westin Charlotte](https://www.expedia.ca/Charlotte-Hotels-The-Westin-Charlotte.h899229.Hotel-Information) > > [Sunset Resorts Canmore and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Canmore-Hotels-Sunset-Resorts-Canmore-And-Spa.h1293268.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Buffalo](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels.d602674.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Market Street Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Edinburgh-Hotels-Market-Street-Hotel.h29507352.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Times Square](https://www.expedia.ca/Times-Square-Hotels.0-l502080-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Sheraton Charlotte Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Charlotte-Hotels-Sheraton-Charlotte-Hotel.h11574.Hotel-Information) > > [The Omni Grove Park Inn & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Asheville-Hotels-The-Omni-Grove-Park-Inn.h438107.Hotel-Information) > > [Drury Inn & Suites Charlotte Northlake](https://www.expedia.ca/Charlotte-Hotels-Drury-Inn-Suites-Charlotte-Northlake.h2097104.Hotel-Information) > > [Family Hotels in Bahamas](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Bahamas-Family-Hotel.0-0-d13-tFamilyHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Cheap Hotels in North Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/North-Bay-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d6134289-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Lisbon District (LIS) to Paris (CDG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/lis/cdg/lisbon-to-paris) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Galveston (GLS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/gls/toronto-to-galveston) > > [Flights from San José (SJO) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/sjo/yyz/san-jose-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/yeg/ottawa-to-edmonton) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Allentown (ABE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/abe/toronto-to-allentown) > > [Egyptair Toronto (YYZ) to Cairo (CAI) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/egyptair-from-pearson-intl-to-cairo-intl/ms/yyz/cai) > > [Flights from Madrid (MAD) to Montreal (YUL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/mad/yul/madrid-to-montreal) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Hyderabad (HYD)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/hyd/toronto-to-hyderabad) > > [Turkish Airlines](https://www.expedia.ca/Turkish-Airlines-Flights.cTK.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Melbourne (MEL) to Montreal (YUL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/mel/yul/melbourne-to-montreal) ### Activities > [Things to do in Pelham](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Pelham.d6349868.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Las Vegas](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Las-Vegas.d178276.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Montreal Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal.d178288.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Disneyland® Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Disneyland-Resort-Anaheim-Resort.d6025613.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Mexico Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Mexico.d117.Destination-Travel-Guides)
