Searching for the ideal beach rental to serve as your homebase while you hop from adventure to adventure during your next hideaway? Then look no further than Lily’s Pad! Located on Caswell Beach, this ocean view home with a private pool and two hot tubs offers convenient public beach access and welcomes up to two dogs per stay.

Step into the comfortable living room and settle on the curved sectional to watch a movie on the enormous intelligent TV or relax in front of the fireplace. Warm wood tones, shades of aqua and pops of tropical orange give off coastal vibes that harmonize with the charming marsh vistas beyond. Pluck a novel from the mantle and settle in the recliner with your next beach read as you listen to shorebirds call.

The wooden dining table is set for six but can seat up to eight for meals or a friendly game of UNO or Monopoly. Five additional seats are available at the adjacent breakfast bar. The kitchen provides everything you need to prepare, whether you’re whipping up a fast afternoon snack or starting off the day with a full breakfast spread, along with plenty of serving and dinnerware.

Each bedroom in the home features a TV for personal entertainment, ceiling fans for comfort and the privacy of an en suite bath. The queen bedroom offers a pair of dressers and a wardrobe to ensure there’s plenty of room for your belongings. The attached bath is furnished with a pedestal sink and a step-in tile shower stall with a constructed-in shower bench. The twin bedroom also provides a dresser for storage, and the shower stall for this bath features a wide door and walk in entry that make it easier to aid younger kids. A laundry closet is conveniently located between these bedrooms with a full-sized washer and dryer.

The master suite is located on the upper level with a door at the bottom of the stairs to offer additional privacy. The loft-style room with vaulted ceilings is broad and furnished with a king bed, where you can wake up to vistas of the Atlantic via the sliding glass doors that lead to a modest balcony. A dressing area provides plenty of space to get ready each day, with a settee, wardrobe, vanity and full-length mirror available. A dining table against the wall means you can sneak a private meal upstairs away from the bustle of the group, and a private seating area accepts you to take in impressive vistas across to Southport from that sunbathed interior or the private deck beyond. The attached master bathroom offers a vanity with his and hers sinks and a huge step in shower stall with an antique-style rain showerhead.

The rest of the family has access to spectacular outdoor spaces as well! Appreciate your coffee on the covered front porch as you watch the sunlight reflect on the waves or look for porpoises playing in the surf. Dine al fresco on the partially covered back deck as the kids play in the pool below, or soak in the elevated hot tub without needing to venture down to the pool deck and savor the sweeping vistas of the horizon beyond.

The pool area is completely fenced for safety and features both a pool and a hot tub, as well as classic pool loungers where you can relax and soak in the sun. Pool heating is available upon advance request with an additional fee. A park grille is included for your family’s bar-b-que master, and you’ll also find a fish-cleaning station that your star angler can put to use. Tucked beneath the stairs is a sheltered outdoor shower with hot and cold water. While not entirely enclosed, this convenient rinse off is still private and a welcome aid for washing sand off of babies and fur-babies alike.

When you’re ready to head to the beach, the closest access point is just four homes to the left and across the street. If you need a break from the sun and sand, a variety of adventures await, from exploring the Oak Island Lighthouse that’s practically next door to venturing over the bridge into Southport to discover the oceanside town that you can see from your back deck! Or stay on the island and venture into the Oak Island city limits instead, where you’ll find a variety of stores, eateries, arcades and other activities that you can reach in a short drive of five to ten mins.. We know that however you like to fill the hours of your beach vacation, Lily’s Pad is the jumping off point you’ve been waiting for!

Guests should note that an additional pool heating fee is required for each day a guest requests pool heating. Guest must request the pool heating and pay the fee by calling the OIA office during normal business hours at least 48 hours prior to arrival. Pool heating is only available when temperatures are 55 degrees Fahrenheit and warmer.
