Few Minutes' Walk to Beach | Waterfront Fishing Dock | Dog Friendly
The Thirsty Pelican
Wake to golden sunrises over the Intracoastal water, spend your afternoon on the sand, and end your day with sunset views from your private fishing dock.
The Thirsty Pelican gives you the rare luxury of BOTH a private fishing dock on the Intracoastal waters AND a quick walk to the Atlantic Ocean. Bring your kayak, your pups, and your favorite people, this is coastal living done right.
The "Pelican" Perks
- The Private Fishing Dock: Spend your mornings crabbing or fishing right from your backyard. It's the perfect spot to watch the white herons and egrets glide over the marsh. Bring your kayak or paddleboard and cruise the Intracoastal Waterways.
- Front and Back Decks: Sip your morning coffee on the covered front porch and toast the evening on the back sun deck as the sun dips below the canal.
- Indoor Comforts: Recently refreshed with luxury plank flooring, an electric fireplace for cozy evenings, and custom tile showers.
- Modern Meets Coastal: Recently updated with new stainless-steel appliances, marble countertops, and breakfast bar. The open-concept living area floods the home with natural light.
- A Chef-Style Kitchen: Fully stocked and featuring ample counter and cabinet space for your culinary cooking preparation – everything you need to whip up a family feast. Plus, a gas grill outdoors to prepare the day's catch.
- Additional Amenities Include: Beach towels, beach chairs and cart, and beach toys. Fishing poles and crabbing gear. Full washer and dryer, hair dryer, iron and board.
Relax & Recharge (Sleeps 8)
- The Primary Suite: Featuring a plush King bed and a private en-suite bath with a custom tile walk-in shower and views of the sunrise from bed.
- Bedroom 2: A bright and airy Queen guest room overlooking the water.
- Bedroom 3: The family-favorite bunk room with a Full-over-Queen bunk bed. Perfect for the kids and spacious enough for adult guests.
- Standard for you: Every bedroom is equipped with a Smart TV for streaming your favorite shows. Games and books are plentiful for that family night in. Free Wi-Fi lets you connect for those “work-from-the-beach” days.
Bring Your Furry First Mates
No one gets left behind! The Thirsty Pelican is proudly dog-friendly (up to 2 pups), featuring a large, open yard space perfect for lounging away the day on the 2-person hammock or enjoying a game of Corn Hole (provided!) while the dogs stretch their legs.
Coastal Living Simplified
- Wash the Day Away: A fully enclosed hot/cold outdoor shower and a foot wash station mean you leave the sand at the door.
- Linens Included: Forget the hassle of packing sheets. We provide full bed linens and towel sets for your entire group.
- Driveway can accommodate 2 vehicles.
The Perfect Location
Situated in the heart of Oak Island, you are perfectly "central" to everything:
- The Beach: Few minutes' walk to public beach access.
- The Fun: Walking distance to the Pepperoni Grill, beach shops and Middleton Park (summer concerts and farmers markets, splash pad, basketball and pickleball courts, skatepark, baseball field and playgrounds).
- Explore: Minutes to Ocean Crest Fishing Pier, Oak Island Golf Course, putt-putt and arcade, the Oak Island Lighthouse, helicopter rides, skydiving, and more. A short drive takes you to the charming streets of historic Southport or the ferry to Bald Head Island or Kure Beach attractions, including the NC Aquarium and Civil War museum.
- Dining: With over 20 restaurants and bars on the island, within a couple miles of The Thirsty Pelican, you can't hit them all in one trip.
- Shopping: Less than 1 mile to Publix grocery store, with "coastal nook" shops, artisan galleries, homemade ice-cream shops and multiple fish markets also very nearby. Short drive to Walmart and big box stores.
Whether you're here to cast a line or catch a wave, The Thirsty Pelican is your home base for the ultimate Oak Island experience.
Note: This is a smoke free property. The dock cannot accommodate motorized watercraft due to low tide levels.
