Neighborhood

Located directly on the border of North Carolina and South Carolina’s coasts, Calabash is known as the “Seafood Capital of the World”. This small fishing town originated "Calabash-Style" seafood, a distinctive style of fried seafood of clams, fish, shrimp, and oysters dipped in a light, flavorful batter and fried quickly. The Calabash River borders the southern part of town, where shrimp boats dock daily during the season, selling fresh-caught treasures. The family-friendly community is proud of its culinary connection, featured at local seafood restaurants along Beach Drive and River Road. Be sure to try one of the original riverside eateries like Captain Nance's Seafood for crisp, authentic Calabash seafood and views of fishing boats. Although seafood and fishing certainly bring this community together, Calabash offers so much more for visitors, with nearby Sunset Beach, Ocean Isle Beach, Cherry Grove Beach, Swamp Park, Ingraham Aquarium, local fishing charters, and boating tours on the Calabash River.

Other Things To Note

You must be at least 25 years of age to book this property.

Getting Around

Getting around Oak Island is easy! While 'A Last Resort' offers free parking on the premises, you'll also find convenient options for exploring the area. The closest major airport is Wilmington International Airport (ILM), approximately a 45-minute drive away. From the house, you can easily access local shops and restaurants by car or even a leisurely walk. Public transportation options are limited in Oak Island, so having a car is recommended to make the most of your family vacation. Enjoy the freedom to explore the beautiful beaches, nearby attractions, and charming coastal towns at your own pace.

"Short drive to public beach spots and many restaurants. Pool was great! We wish there was a fence all the way around the pool, but the doors had super loud alarms you could turn on, which helped if one of the kids opened a door!! It would be nice if there was more than one bathroom, but the outside shower helped! Overall, the place served its purpose and had 4 bedrooms, allowing for everyone to sleep comfortably! The host was very responsive and kind and we did not have any issues with check in or check out!

"We had a great time for our week at the beach over memorial day. Plenty of room for our family of 5 plus our dog. The whole family enjoyed the pool as well as the wonderful screened in front porch for family dining. The house is just a short drive to the beach and conveniently close to restaurants, grocery stores, and the best donut/ice cream shop. Sea Coast Rentals was easy to communicate with and very responsive. Any message we sent was answered within minutes. The house was clean and well equipped for our stay. We will definitely be back.

"We enjoyed our stay @ this property.The pool is a plus in a private back yard.We loved hearing the different birds singing every morning! We appreciate that we could bring our dog. I enjoyed the screened in front porch. Very quiet neighborhood. My only request is that you provide better instructions for the door code & instructions for each TV. The remotes should be updated and have backs attached. We would come back.
