8 Br Private Vacation Home Vacation Rental In Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina

Welcome to Papa's Porch 2.0! - New construction in 2024

With 8 bedrooms and an elevator servicing all levels, the house is perfect for multi-generational families or other large groups. The house is located on West First St with spectacular, unobstructed views of the ocean.

From 2009-2020, we owned another 8 bedroom home at Ocean Isle Beach and earned over 110 5-star reviews from our Vrbo guests. We took all the things we loved about that house, made them bigger and better, and added some things from our wish list. You can see the old house here, and we're responsible for all the reviews from December 2020 back: https://www.vrbo.com/2573689

The 4th (top) floor hosts the main living room with ample comfortable seating, an 85-inch Sony UHD 4K TV and a bar area with a wine refrigerator. The kitchen and dining area is located on the top floor, with a dining table that seats 10 and bar seating for 9 more. The top floor also contains a king bedroom with private bath, as well as a full-size laundry room with a second refrigerator, washer and dryer and an ice maker that stores 25 pounds of fresh ice. The 4th floor deck has an outdoor dining table, ceiling fans and plenty of comfortable seating for taking in the stunning ocean views.

On the 3rd floor (middle) you will find a second large living room, a king bedroom with private bath, and another king bedroom that shares a Jack-n-Jill bath with the bunkroom. Each side of the Jack-n-Jill has its own sink and toilet, connected by a shared shower/tub combo. The bunkroom contains 2 full-over-full beds. The living room has a 75-inch Sony UHD 4K TV. The fabulous ocean views can be seen from the 3rd floor deck which has rocking chairs and a swinging day bed.

The 2nd (bottom) floor contains four king bedrooms, 2 of which have ocean views. All 4 first floor bedrooms have private baths and TVs. The 2nd floor also contains another full-size laundry room with the same 7.4 cubic ft GE washer and 4.5 cubic ft GE dryer located in the top floor laundry. Both contain an iron and ironing board and we provide laundry detergent and dryer sheets.

The ground level has an 8' x 18' private pool. (Small, we know, but big pools at OIB are almost non-existent because the lot sizes are so small. If you are training for an Olympic swimming event, then our house may not be for you, but if you just need to take a dip every so often to cool off while you are laying out, then we have what you need). The pool can be heated in the spring and fall, and because it's small, it can essentially serve as a huge hot tub. The outdoor living space contains a lounge area with a TV and a gas grill, and the large side yard is the perfect place for a game of cornhole. There is an enclosed outdoor shower with hot water.

In November 2024, we installed a Tesla Universal Wall Connector that provides Level 2 charging to Teslas and most non-Tesla EVs.

So you can pack a little lighter, we provide a beach cart for transporting chairs, coolers and other beach gear. The ground floor also contains enclosed storage space for your gear when not in use as well as another full-size refrigerator.

Linens are provided at no additional charge -- 2 bath towels, 1 hand towel, 1 washcloth for each guest, sheets and pillowcases on each bed. We supply our own linens, so they are not the see-through kind you get from rental companies.

We have 1GB mesh WiFi through the house and outdoor living area. All bedrooms except the kids' bunkroom have Roku TVs so you can login to your favorite streaming app. The house also has 100+ channel cable TV.

The kitchen contains a 5-burner cooktop with pot filler, oven, microwave, 2 dishwashers, 2 refrigerators, a walk-in pantry, 2 coffee makers and a Keurig machine with a starter supply of K-cups. The large kitchen island has a prep sink and barstool seating for 6. The kitchen is fully stocked with service for 20, pots, pans, bakeware, wine glasses, and all common kitchen gadgets.

No pets allowed and no smoking indoors.
