Are you ready to step Into The Mystic? Recently featured on Season Four of HGTV's Battle on the Beach as Team Alison Victoria's home, you'll appreciate the designer touches and broad renovations finished in early 2024.

With the beach right at your back door, appreciate the tranquility of an early morning beach walk where you can catch dolphins playing in the early morning sun or snuggle up on the deck as you get lost in the stars of the midnight sky. The ocean side covered deck is the ideal place to relax in the rocking chairs as you sip an icy cold drink from the enormous ice chest. It has a bar with stools, and a table and chairs. The deck box is outfitted with beach items and toys, to sink your toes into the warm sand and savor the ocean breeze. 

Appreciate your morning coffee on the new quartzite counters as you gaze out at the lavish ocean view from the picture window above the sink. Munch on some breakfast at the gigantic kitchen island. This beachfront vacation-ready home sleeps eight with two full bathrooms and one half bathroom. The warm and inviting living space makes this home the ideal place for the next family vacation, complete with infant and kid-friendly amenities, or a friend reunion. The upstairs movie room has a 65" T.V. and provides valuable additional space to relax; the sectional within is huge and comfortable enough for two to take a mid-afternoon nap, or even to utilize as an additional sleeping space.

With four TVs, you have access to streaming services like Hulu, Hulu Live, Disney+ and ESPN+. You also have games and activities to keep you entertained as you rest and relax inside. Unwind, renew and spend time with adored ones at Into The Mystic.

Guests with allergies should note that although no family pets are allowed for guest stays, dogs may occasionally be present during owner reservations.

Tips and Tricks to get the best Oak Island rental experience:

Getting the most from your rental home budget:

• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are reserved very early. Reserving your rental six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Summertime is high season in the Wilmington, NC area. To find the best value, consider shifting your family's Wilmington, NC trip dates to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer great temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer months. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Wilmington, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Some property management companies offer discounts for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Wilmington, NC area visitors guides which will include money-saving deals, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wilmington, NC visitors guide and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Make a plan and choose yourrental:

• First and foremost, have your family agree to dates and a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Into the Mystic: Family-friendly, Oceanfront Home on Island's West Beach has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is regularly accessible on booking pages. If not, email or call the property management company before you reserve your rental. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which oftentimes includes pull-out couches.
• Some properties allow pets, and some don't. Acceptable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the host about pets before booking.
• If there's a certain Wilmington, NC attraction you crave, keep an eye out for homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your requirements.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all required amenities are included before booking.

During your stay:

• Add the owner's contact info to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of arrival/departure procedures.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call prevents a lot of issues.
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are out, just like you would at home.
• To make certain that damages are not linked to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas when you arrive. Speak to the host right away to record your findings. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be very helpful.
• Be respectful. Often times, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to charter a fishing boat, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Don't leave anything behind! Before you drive away, walk through the rental property to reconfirm you've collected all personal items. Re-check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a excellent vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for clients to provide feedback. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was defective and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make a note as part of your feedback.
