Coming to the Beach you can’t wait for a Little Sunshine to kiss your face & give you that “I’m on vacation” glow. Situated on the 2nd row, you can sit in the Rockers on the Front Deck & watch the waves tumble in & hear them crash onto the sandy shore. Because OKI is a South-Facing Beach, you can watch both the Sunrise & Sunset over the water. Sit back, relax & you may spy Fishing & Shrimp Boats headed in, ladened down with their hulls full & in the distance, possibly even a Container Ship as it begins to make its way from the vast Atlantic to the Port of Wilmington. The Front & Back Decks have a gate to keep curious kids from discovering the downstairs without assistance.
This Open Concept Cottage has been updated with new furniture, fresh paint, new appliances & bathroom upgrades. The Fully-Stocked Kitchen includes Drip Coffee Maker/Slow Cooker/Griddle/Hand Mixer. For inspiration, flip through one of several cookbooks to determine which delicious meal you will prepare next. One of the standouts in the serviceware are the beautiful dishes on which to serve your oysters on the ½ shell. Just outside the Kitchen door is a table to serve your dinner Al Fresco. A small propane grill is also on the back deck. A Full-Sized Propane Grill awaits your seafood caught or bought downstairs. You can serve your meals in the open air underneath the cottage at the picnic table. While you are waiting for dinner to be prepared, play a game of Corn Hole on the regulation-sized boards.
Inside, with convenient proximity to the kitchen, is the dining area. Additional seating for 4 at the kitchen bar. Watch your favorite shows on the Large Screen Smart TV in the Living Area. With lots of comfortable seating, you can even watch the waves roll in across the street. The large Coffee Table is perfect for playing one of the various games or assembling a puzzle.
This cottage sleeps 8 in 4 bedrooms. Bedroom #1 has an Ocean View, King, Smart TV & Closet for unpacking. Imagine what the heavens would look like if you were able to see them through the decorative telescope. Bedroom #2 has a Queen, a library of Beach Reads, Smart TV & an Armoire. Bedroom #3 has a King, an Ocean View, a Smart TV & a closet. Bedroom #4 is fitted with 2 Twin Beds, a Smart TV & Closet. Pack lighter to leave room for the collection of shells & souvenirs you gathered because there is a Full-Sized Washer & Dryer to keep your bathing suits & towels fresh for the next day. If you wish to hang your towels to dry in the sunshine & smell of the fresh ocean breeze, there is an extendable laundry line downstairs.
Grab a beach read (several of local stories), a cup of coffee or a glass of wine & head downstairs to enjoy the comfortable & roomy Adirondack Chairs, Rocker or curl up on the Bench. Imagine yourself as a character in your book as you smell the salt air & feel the gentle winds off the sea. Have a friendly competition for the best chess or checkers player at the picnic table. After a delicious dinner, gather on the bottom level to watch your favorite movie using the Roku projector on the screened wall. This is definitely a unique feature of this cottage!
You will remember this beautifully coastal inspired cottage, the “Whale” of a good time you had & how a Little Sunshine helped you make memories to last a lifetime.
