Pledge the Pink has traveled throughout the southeastern US and we consistently hear that Oak Island NC is everyone’s favorite host community. Come see why.

Paradise is our playground.

A Classic Beach Town With a Whole Lotta Pink.

Take a step back in time and enjoy this nostalgic classic beach town. There are no towering hotels or highrises here — just local businesses, throwback motels and inns, and a community that comes out in force for our FlockStars.

Where to Stay.

Middleton Park is our official headquarters, so most people try to stay in that general area. But no matter where you stay, you’re never more than a 10-minute golf cart ride away.

House rentals are the most popular option for FlockStars, and there are thousands. Prices also drop drastically three or four blocks back from the beach.

Retro beach motels and inns are a great option for solo FlockStars or those travelling with one or two other peeps. And did we mention the throwback places are adorable?

Oak Island Accommodations

Oak Island Accommodations is proudly sponsoring Pledge the Pink again this year. Book with OIA and you can save up to 10% on your house rental — plus they’ll make a donation to our Foundation for every PTP-related booking.

OIA has more than 100 properties along our courses and our infamous Golf Cart Parade route. These sell out fast.

Park the car.

Getting Around.

We strongly recommend renting golf carts or bicycles to scoot around the island. Middleton Park is centrally located, but car parking is limited.
