Pet-friendly, fully-fenced yard, minutes to beach
First floor spacious master bedroom with a king bed and with a full bathroom. Dog friendly, fenced in backyard and screened in back porch.
Oak Island is 9 miles of a family-friendly beach vacation getaway making it the perfect place for your Family to escape “City Woes” and trade them for “Sandy Toes”.
Conveniently located between the intercostal waterway and the beach, “City Woes to Sandy Toes” is 0.8 mile to the beach on foot using a very scenic walkway. Those who prefer to drive can use NE 40th street for a convenient, direct route to one of our favorite beach accesses. Whether walking, biking or driving the most direct routes from the house lead to one of the most desirable beach strands on the island. A plethora of restaurants and shopping are just 2 miles away on E Oak Island Dr.
Plenty of tourist attractions include Southport, Bald Head Island by ferry, Fort Fisher by ferry and Wilmington. The area is rich in history and educational opportunities such as Fort Fisher Aquarium, the USS North Carolina Battleship, the Oak Island light house and Fort Caswell.
Floor plan:
“City Woes to Sandy Toes” is a two-story home with a driveway and fenced-in backyard. The first floor has the master bedroom suite with one king bed and an attached bathroom: full tub w/shower, toilet and sink. The living room has a half bathroom. There are two bedrooms on the second floor. One has a queen bed and connects to a full bathroom with a toilet, a sink and a tub w/shower. The other has a daybed with a twin mattress and a twin trundle that pulls out from below it. In all there are in total of 4 beds that accommodate up to 6 guests.
The fully equipped kitchen has most common household appliances, equipment and utensils as well as laundry nook with stacked washer and dryer. The screened-in porch off the back of the kitchen has a dining table and chairs plus a propane grill and the fenced-in backyard has a hammock!
Pets:
We allow up to two well-trained dogs (please ask if weight exceeds 40 lbs or if more than two dogs). Please inform us of your dogs at booking. The non-refundable one-time pet fee of $30 ($50 for bigger dogs) for EACH dog will be charged. Unpaid pet fee will be charged after the reservation is confirmed. Guests are responsible for supervision and removing any traces of your pets including picking up after them outside. Any extra cleaning needed will result in additional cleaning fees.
Amenities:
Linens provided, Internet, TV, Central Air Conditioning and a Full kitchen with Microwave, Electric Stove, Refrigerator, Cooking Utensils, and Keurig-style coffee maker. Washer and Dryer are in the kitchen’s rear door. We cannot monitor the amount of propane in the tanks. We encourage guests to bring a tank or refill the tanks onsite if they are empty. Our cleaning company does not clean the grill, and guests are expected to be respectful of each other and clean it after each use.
Restrictions:
No smoking ANYWHERE on the property
No parties and no guests
Security camera:
We have ring camera at the front door for security reasons only.
