Are you craving a really next level vacation experience? Feel as though you’ve booked your own personal resort during your next Oak Island stay at Bird House. Appreciate modern elegance with pops of coastal flair and sunny color at this charming East Beach property featuring a private pool.

From the moment you step through the cheerful yellow front door, you’ll appreciate the bright and airy open-concept living area. To the left, a elegant granite mantel anchors a comfortable seating arrangement. Gather here to stream a favorite movie or savor the ambiance created by the electric fireplace (guests should note that the fireplace is for effect only and does not provide a heating function).

Six cushioned barstools arranged around the center island invite the family to hang out in the heart of the home, the kitchen. Gleaming counters that match the mantel provide plenty of room to prepare meals, although the attached butler’s pantry accepts a more private space and plenty of storage, along with a number of modest appliances. This entirely outfitted gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances will have the chef in your group feeling right at home as they season up the catch of the day or whip up a family beloved recipe. Dine bathed in natural light in the close by dining nook, where a sturdy wooden table seats six comfortably.

Just down the hall, you’ll find a full bathroom with a standard tub/shower combo, followed by the laundry room. All bedrooms in the property feature a wall-mounted Intelligent TV for personal entertainment. The queen bedroom is decorated in relaxing autumn shades, while the cheerful blue and yellow room features two double beds.

At the very back of the home, the spa-like master suite offers a sense of understated opulence. The opulent textures of velvet, suede and leather are scattered throughout the space, and accents of deep purple and metallic gold impress without overwhelming. Sink into the broad king bed, curl up on the armchair and ottoman or lounge on the padded window bench – there are no shortage of spots to relax here! If you simply can’t avoid work entirely during your stay, a modest desk is available as well. The ensuite bathroom features his and her basin sinks and an upsized vanity along with a huge walk-in closet and changing area that also attaches to the laundry room. The step-in tiled shower features two opposing rain shower heads with individual controls.

The master suite also provides direct deck access to the screened-in porch on the back of the home, which guests can also reach from the hall. With curtains to block the sun on too warm days, cozy seating, a ceiling fan and even a carpet, this outdoor living room can really be adored no matter what season you visit. Overlook the lush greenery just beyond the yard, or watch the kids splash in the pool below.

On the ground level, the partially finished garage provides a number of amenities, including a convenient half bath, a modest hangout space with a loveseat and plenty of beach equipment. You’ll also find the fun tiki bar, complete with a second full-sized refrigerator and a roll-up window that accepts access to the pool area for snack and drink pickup. Under the home, a number of comfortable seating nooks provide spots for dining, calming or conversation. The enclosed outdoor shower with hot and cold water makes rinsing the sand off before hitting the water a breeze! Unwind pool side on the padded loungers or prepare up an entire feast at the outdoor kitchen, located under a shady pergola.

When you’re ready to enjoy Oak Island’s famed beaches, a brief walk takes you to the sand via the 26th Place East beach access in under five mins.. In the evenings, enjoy walking the spectacular crossover at 29th Place East toward the Oak Island Rec Center for some of the most spectacular sunset vistas on the island and plenty of wildlife viewing opportunities. Rent a kayak or paddleboard and discover the waterways via the public kayak launch point on the other side of the boardwalk. And if you decide to undertake an off-island adventure during your stay, this home’s convenient location makes heading to Southport, Wilmington or even Myrtle Beach simple with simple access to either bridge connecting to the mainland.

Everyone deserves a little luxury in their life! Savor the ultimate beach holiday and book your stay at Bird House today.

Strategies to get the optimal vacation property experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• In the Wilmington, NC area, The earlier you can book a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation rental six to twelve months before your vacation is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to plan and book your rental.
• Summertime is the most expensive season in Oak Island. Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group.
• Booking websites frequently offer guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost you anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for specifics.

You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Make a plan and choose the right Wilmington, NC vacation home:

• To start, have your group decide on a vacation week and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Bird House: Contemporary Coastal Elegance with Swimming Pool has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, email the property owner before you book the rental. Remember that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to establish what configuration is optimal for your trip.
• Some properties allow pets, but some do not. Acceptable types of dog or cat, size and breeds may be restricted, and added fees may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable breeds and types before booking.
• Visiting for a specific event or attraction? Try a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

During your stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, intercom or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent lots of problems.
• Lock your rental while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• To make certain no damages are linked to your stay, note any problem areas during check in. Get in touch with the property manager right away to report any damages. If there is a dispute, having a record of issues and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are filled by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to see a beautiful sunrise or sunset, have a great night out, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the property to confirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a great vacation? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
