Savor expansive vistas of the marsh, dunes and Atlantic from the comfort of your living room at The Loggerhead. Soak in the calming and secluded vibes afforded by this handsome location as you walk along your private boardwalk to Oak Island’s white sand beach.

With common spaces decorated in citrus hues and with warm wooden accents throughout, you’ll feel you’ve escaped to the tropics as soon as you step inside. Gather in the comfortable and inviting living room to watch a favorite show as a family, or shut the TV cabinet doors and watch the flames dance in the fireplace or the sunset reflect on the waves instead. Take a closer look with the supplied telescope to check out dolphins at play or study the stars at nighttime.

The adjacent kitchen is entirely equipped with everything you need to prepare favorite family recipes or the fresh catch of the day. The breakfast bar provides mealtime seating for four, while the close by dining table seats six. A half bathroom is located down the hall for convenience. Ceiling fans are located throughout the home to help keep you cozy.

Off the living room you’ll find the master suite, which features ocean vistas, a king bed and a TV for personal entertainment. A recliner provides the ideal spot to curl up in the sun with a good beach read. The attached bathroom offers his and her pedestal sinks, a step-in tile shower and a claw-foot tub. All other sleeping spaces are located on the lower level, along with the laundry room.

The secondary suite is also furnished with a king bed, and offers an en suite bathroom with a step-in tile shower. Appreciate direct access to the oceanfront screened porch from this bedroom. Next door, an airy office space features two sets of French doors that allow light to stream in from the covered porch and hall. This space also has a twin bed and gives direct access to the covered porch, which includes a wooden porch swing and classic rocking chair. Just beyond the office, you’ll find a full bathroom with hall access and a step-in shower. Directly opposite, the queen bedroom overlooks the front covered porch. The final bedroom, equipped with a king bed, offers direct access to both the ocean front covered porch and the streetside covered porch, a shady respite that also offers splendid vistas of the marsh.

When you are ready to hit the sand, kids and kids-at-heart will adore the excitement of heading down your own private boardwalk over the marsh on your way to the beach. Stop at the deck with constructed-in seating to watch for shorebirds, turtles, deer and more. Once you’re to the shared sand access path, only a few more steps take you to one of the least busy stretches of sand on Oak Island’s East Beach.

Once you return from a day spent in the sun and surf, an enclosed outdoor shower on the ground level with hot and cold water comes in handy when rinsing the sand! You'll also find a half bath located beside the outdoor shower. In the evening, walk less than half a mile to appreciate a round of mini-golf or some arcade games at Oak Island Jungle Golf, treat yourself to some of the best ice cream on the island at Lil and John’s Sweetreat or indulge in a mouthwatering dining experience at Salt 64. Build vacation memories to last a lifetime at The Loggerhead!

How to get the best rental experience:

Get the best value:

• To find the most suitable vacation home for your budget, we strongly suggest booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, better selection, gorgeous weather and the absence of large crowds at popular Wrightsville Beach attractions and restaurants.
• Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules usually become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners frequently offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs 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 issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Often, management companies supply Wrightsville Beach area visitors guide magazines that include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find Wrightsville Beach visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting the perfect rental home in the Wrightsville Beach area:

• Begin by selecting a vacation week and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your family needs. The Loggerhead: Oceanfront, Beautiful Walkway Over Marsh has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is almost always accessible on booking pages. Otherwise, call the host before you reserve the property. Remember that most property listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds.
• If there's a particular Wrightsville Beach destination you simply love, keep an eye out for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater to your desires.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the host about allowable breeds and types before booking.

More tips for your stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental home.
• At Check-in, record any issues with the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Respect the neighborhood. Frequently, adjacent homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can frequently point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Lock your rental home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected all of your things. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the host isn't available, take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a excellent stay? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear about it. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
