October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and here on Oak Island that means one thing: Pledge the Pink 🎀

Pledge the Pink is back October 15-18, and it's honestly one of the best weekends the island has all year. About 1,500 women walk, run, and even crawl their way through 30 miles over three days, all to raise money for breast cancer research. If you've ever been on the island that weekend, you know the energy is unmatched, pink everywhere, strangers cheering each other on, the whole community showing up.

Whether you're taking part or just visiting that weekend, wear pink with us! It's a small way to show support for a cause that's touched so many families here.

If you're booking a stay around then, just know the island's going to be buzzing, in the best way. And if you want to be close to it all, we've got places to stay just a golf cart ride from the action.

Life's sweeter by the sea at Sweet Carolina.

This 4 bedroom, 2 bath oceanfront cottage on Holden Beach sleeps 10 and was just renovated with even more ways to enjoy the beach. Take a dip in the private pool with its own tanning ledge, cool off under the pool cabana, or rock away the evening on the big oceanfront back porch.

Bring the whole family, furry members included. There's a fenced-in dog area, and the new walkway to the dunes means it's just a short walk from deck to sand.

Starting at $300/night.

Here's the thing about a good bachelorette weekend: it's never just one moment, it's the pool floats, the theme nights, the trolley ride you didn't know you needed, and the sunset boat tour that became everyone's favorite part. We put the whole trip into one post so you can see it for yourself, swipe through, then grab the full guide on the blog (link in comments), free itinerary included if you're planning your own.

Meet The Blue Anchor

A cozy 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath home on Holden Beach, decorated in a relaxed beachy style. Peekaboo ocean views from the deck, a fenced yard for unwinding after the beach, and beach gear (wagon, chairs, umbrellas, even baby gear) waiting in the garage so you can pack light.

Sleeps 6, flexible check-in days available including Sunday to Sunday if you'd rather skip the weekend crowds.

There's something about this little beach town that has a way of making people fall in love, with each other, and with the place itself. Golden hour light, a quiet stretch of sand, and a whole lot of romance. Oak Island, doing what it does best.

Planning a proposal of your own? Off-season is worth considering, fewer crowds means better light, more privacy, and nobody wandering into your photos. And if you need a place to stay while you're at it, we'd love to help. Link in bio.

We have someone looking for a place this weekend at one of the Brunswick islands. Does anyone have anything available?

Fall is creeping in, and we've got some thoughts on what's actually "kinda chic" this season. Trading flip flops for a flannel? Chic. Having a whole stretch of beach to yourself? Very chic. A low-key trip with your favorite people and absolutely no itinerary? Couldn't be more chic. If a fall weekend in Brunswick County is calling your name, swipe through for a little inspiration, and check out why we think off-season might just be the best season. Link in comments!
