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).
Short Drive to Restaurants, 3 Grocery Stores, Shopping, OKI Gym (weekly & daily drop-ins), 2 Piers, Landmark OKI Lighthouse (schedule Tours ahead online); the Sea Biscuit Wildlife Preserve. Seasonal: Summer Concert Venue with Food Trucks, Splash Pad & Skateboard Park; 39th Place W. - Free Public Entry Point to Paddle the Davis Canal/Montgomery Slough. Local Rentals of Kayaks, Paddleboards & Bicycles.
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.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 5.5 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 8 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a sofa bed.

Great House for a Large Family Trip
We stayed her with our extended family to celebrate a birthday and had a great time! We enjoyed the pool and the large porch that overlooked the ocean. The beach was just a short walk. The house had everything we needed and we would definitely stay here again!

Family Thanksgiving Gathering
We had an absolutely incredible stay at Shore Foundation for Thanksgiving 2024 with extended family: cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. The house was gorgeous, and the kitchen was so well appointed we had no issues cooking up a gourmet Thanksgiving dinner. Lots of quality time hanging out by the hot tub and playing games at the large dining table. We got lucky with the weather as well and were able to spend some time on the beach fishing, walking, flying kites, and playing baseball. The location of the house was perfect. Can't say enough good things about this trip!

Love this house!
Clean. Lots of room. Homey and cozy. Very short beach walk. Out door area perfect! Kitchen stocked and labeled nicely. My husband says it’s the best house I’ve picked for vacation. Quality of goods from knives to beach chairs were just as good as home.
