The interior was just remodeled and redecorated with all new linens and furnishings with both comfort and style. We tried to think of every comfort including Roku TV’s in every room , phone chargers, board games, books, Bose Wave Radio in the kitchen, ceiling fans in every room, dedicated work space and wireless printer in the middle room, coffee and tea with all the fixings with some welcome treats. Every plate, glass, blender and cooking utensil we could imagine, as well as spices and cooking essentials for meals at the 8 seat dining table and open floor plan with cozy living area.
The sleeping arrangements are an incredibly comfortable Queen bed with high end linens in the Master Bedroom with room for a cot, air mattress, sleeping bag, or pack and play next to the bed in the master, the middle room has the double bed with dedicated work space, the bunk room has One bunk bed with a trundle for the 3rd twin and a pull out chair for a child. We have a new pack and play, a toddler bed and an air mattress.
For enjoying the outdoors, we have a brand new top of the line 2 to 3 person fishing kayak for the intracoastal waterway from Brooklyn Kayak. Other features include 2 adult bikes, 2 kids bikes , tire pump, bike locked, some kids helmets, ; beach chairs, cooler, beach towels, and beach cart for the 4 beach access points at 40th, 43rd, 46th and 49th streets. Our home is mere blocks away, easy walking distance, from the free public park with everything you can imagine for the entire family with the added bonus of free live concerts on Friday nights from Memorial Day to Labor Day, as well as farmer and artist markets on Mondays, a splash pad for the young ones, and skate park for the older kids.
You can’t miss the ice cream and donut shops, Pizza and Mexican joints right around the corner, plus pubs, breweries, and restaurants with a quaint beach town vibe. There are 2 piers for fishing. Ocean Pier has live music and drinks. Yaupon Pier has a restaurant and bar. Both have little shops to help with fishing
The beach has the most incredible sunsets and an excursion at night with flashlights, which we provide, searching for ghost crabs is always a treat. Golf carts are available to rent as well as electric bikes. Mini golf, arcade and classic beach shops are also nearby.
If you want to explore other areas, the incredible port city of historic Wilmington with some of the best food in the area ( including a James Beard nominated Chef who just opened a new restaurant, Olivero, reservations needed.) is 45 minutes away by car, with museums, shops, and a tour of the Battleship nearby. There are also boat and kayak tours across the area. The charming Southern town of Southport is just over the bridge from Oak Island with about a 15 minute drive . Little River and the Boardwalk at Myrtle Beach are about 30 and 45 minutes in the other direction with so much to discover and enjoy. Of course NC and SC are known for golfing. For those who don’t take golfing too seriously there is mini golf in Oak Island and a Top Golf in Myrtle Beach . There is alsoThe Golf Barn in winnabow which has driving range, live music, food carts or trucks… If you encounter the rare rainy day, the kids may also enjoy the upside down house in Myrtle Beach at Wonder Works.
The list goes on … and if you have any questions we will be happy to answer them. Oak Island is easily accessible by car and the 2 major airports of Wilmington and Myrtle Beach.
