About this property

Relaxing ocean cottage on Figure Eight Island

Situated on Figure Eight Island, our beach home is nested in the dunes. Upon entering the house, you will see amazing ocean views. There is ample room for 8 to sleep, have fun and relax. In addition to the ocean being directly outside the door, we have two large porches with comfortable outdoor furniture offering a spot to take in the view.

For those unfamiliar with Figure 8, the barrier island is approximately three miles long. The beach is wide and never crowded. There is a paved path that runs through most of the island. This path is ideal for walking, running or biking. There are also tennis courts available to all guests.

Our beach home is laid back luxe. It is outfitted with high speed wifi, roku tvs, water filter and a softening system to fight beach hair. Also of note, four bathrooms have recently been renovated. Towels, beach chairs and bicycles are included in the rental.

For those who want more to do, there are boat rentals, charter fishing and golf courses a few miles away. In terms of restaurants and shopping, there are many options in nearby Porters Neck, Wrightsville Beach and Wilmington. For those with kids, Jungle Rapids in nearby Wilmington is a huge hit. It has go karts, water slides, mini golf etc.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions.

Loved the Oceanfront Location!
This home was perfect for our family. Being right on the ocean was great - we used the owner's bikes to explore the entire island and enjoyed long walks on the wide beach. Food trucks for weekend breakfast and some weekday dinners were an unexpected bonus, particularly for kids who aren't yet in love with fresh seafood!
