Welcome to a Shore Foundation. This vacation home is the Foundation of fun times with loved ones by the Shore. Positioned on the 2nd row, grab the beach cart & chairs & head to the shellabration across the street. Since you have such a short walk, you don’t have to search or pay for parking. On the ground level are highlights of the property. The saltwater pool, hot tub, sectional wicker seating & bar with TV will make you want to call the cabana boy for your pina colada. From the 2 Front Decks you have an ocean view. Go ahead, check the surf. With the Ocean Crest Pier just a short drive away, you can pull up it’s web cam. Since OKI is a South facing beach, the sun rises & sets over the water. From the decks, you get photo worthy views. Back decks are also on 2 levels & overlook the pool activities. Drive under the covered parking & unload your luggage & provisions straight into the elevator. No lugging heavy bags up the steps.

The Upper Level has the modern design of a reverse floorplan to maximize ocean views. It is a light & airy open plan living/dining/kitchen. The glass door & multiple large windows give a variety of gorgeous daytime & sunset views. Indoors you may choose to sit at the 8 seat dining table or at one of the 4 seats at the kitchen island. On those beautiful blue sky days OKI is known for, enjoy the outdoor table on the deck & dine alfresco. This vacation home is definitely kid friendly: Pack ’n Play, highchair, kid-sized plates/silverware & even a kid-sized table with benches next to the dining table. The living area has plenty of comfortable seating, sectional sofa & upholstered chair, with a large screen TV to watch your favorite shows. The well-stocked kitchen includes: a Duo Keurig k-cup & drip coffee maker, griddle, Ninja blender (perhaps those pina coladas are possible after all!), Cuisinart stand mixer with all the attachments, 4 slice toaster & in an adjoining closet is a beverage cooler.

On the Lower Level there are 4 bedrooms & 3 full baths. The Lower Level front deck is covered & has a daybed swing just calling out for a snooze. Let the sound of the waves kissing the shore lull you to sleep. Also on that deck is an open air area with a glider for those who love to sway & feel the warm sunshine on their face. The lower covered back deck has a view of the pool with 2 Southern rockers & a bar height table. Bring out your coffee in the mornings & listen to the call of the gulls. With sliding glass door access to the back deck is an additional bedroom with a queen pull out sofa that also serves as an entertainment room with a large screen TV, a dry bar, and a beverage cooler.

Upstairs in addition to the 3 bedrooms & 2 full baths, is a half bath right off the dining/kitchen areas. The upper front deck has a 6 seat table with a view of the ocean. The upper level back deck has a view of the pool & 2 rockers with a bar height table. This deck is not covered so you can sit here in the evenings to see the wonders of the night sky above you. As a small family beach, we don’t have the bright lights of the city which hide the stars.

Lower Level Bedrooms: #1 – Primary: Ocean view, king, en suite (large shower, double vanity), large walk-in closet, door to front deck; #2 – king, sliding glass door to back deck, hall bath (tub/shower); #3 – ocean view, queen, beside door to front deck; #4 – Bunk Room: Twin/Double, Twin Triple Bunk; Jack & Jill Bath shared by #3 & #4; Upper Level: #5 – Primary: Oceanview, clerestory windows which illuminate the room, king, en suite (large shower, double vanity), large walk-in closet; #6 & #7 – Queen, Hall Bath; All Bedrooms have Dressers/Closets & Smart TVs (except Bedroom #4).

All iTrip Properties have a Complementary “First Night Essentials” Bag. Beds will be made when you arrive. Also, with iTrip, sheets & towels (kitchen & bath) are provided at no extra cost.

This vacation home does not feel like a rental but more of a resort. After a day at the beach (just across the street) in the sand & sun, the fun doesn’t end. Whether it’s the pool, hot tub or swaying in the daybed swing with that book you’ve been wanting to read, there are so many amenities that you may not be able to pick your favorite.

Reviews

Disaster turned Miracle!
5/5 stars
The house we rented had a major water leak,and we were not able to stay there. We were devastated. We were moved to Shore Foundation, such a beautiful home. Well stocked kitchen had everything we needed. All the bedrooms were spacious and beautifully decorated ! Pool, hot tub, very short walk to the beach. Elevator made it a breeze to get luggage and groceries upstairs. Every thing about this home is amazing.
- Edna

Thank you for sharing your experience, Edna! We’re sorry to hear about the initial issue with the water leak but are glad that you enjoyed your stay at Shore Foundation. We hope to host you again!

Shore Foundation Vacation
5/5 stars
My family enjoyed our vacation to Oak Island and our accommodations at Shore Foundation Beach house were just incredible. My three-year old granddaughter liked the ocean, but she really enjoyed playing in the swimming pool. My adult sons enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub after a day of exploring the island on their e-bikes. I appreciated having an elevator to bring up our luggage and groceries. The beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked with any equipment we might need to prepare a meal. It was a great vacation, and we will definitely come back again.
- Jennifer

Shore Foundation was a hit!
5/5 stars
We gathered together for our family reunion in Oak Island from many different places - Chicago, Atlanta, New Orleans, Philadelphia, Farmville and Monterey. Shore Foundation did not disappoint. My older parents loved the hot tub and the pool and the elevator! Having smart TVs in every room was great for all of us. The entertaining space out by the pool with the bar was great and we were all impressed with the furnishings. The house was fresh and felt brand new. The beach was a very easy walk and you could see the ocean easily from both front decks. We will be back again. This was a great find!
- Schon

Thank you for the fantastic review, Schon! We’re happy to hear that Shore Foundation was a great choice for your family reunion and that everyone enjoyed the hot tub, pool, and smart TVs. We’d be delighted to have you back again!

A Wonderful trip in a wonderful house
5/5 stars
I and the people I was with during this period were unanimous in evaluating the service positively from the first contact until now. They were wonderful days and even when we had a problem with the air conditioning on the third floor they were fantastic. During the 4th of July holiday, they managed to mobilize a company to fix the air conditioning and this happened within a few hours of my contact with the manager. I would highly recommend this house for the excellent accommodation (the decor is incredible and the furniture and everything are of high quality) as well as the services provided by the property managers. We had a wonderful time and are so grateful we made the right choice. Thank you so much for providing us with a great 4th of July holiday.
- Elaine

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We're delighted that you had such a positive experience during your stay with us, especially over the 4th of July holiday. It's great to hear that you found the accommodation and decor to your liking, and we're glad we could promptly resolve the air conditioning issue for you. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future!

Lovely house and setup
5/5 stars
We rented with a large group of 4 families with parents and kids and had a lovely time at this location. Everything was just as the pictures showed and we used all amenities available. The pool was a hit with the kids and parents loved the hot tub as well. We loved all the utensils and how they were named and organized properly. Bathroom are huge in the king bed rooms and finding 2 such rooms with large attached bathroom was amazing. At the end it was a struggle to leave to come home. Would love to go back there again.
- Nikhil

Thank you for your review! We are thrilled you enjoyed your stay at Shore Foundation and that the kids loved the pool! It was a pleasure hosting you and we look forward to hosting you again in the future!
