With the first day of October coming up tomorrow, all of us islanders can finally feel a noticeable change in the weather. It's not so hot anymore and the windows on my cottage stay open through the night. Tonight, we have temperatures looming around 60 degrees. Not so bad considering we had a good day in the high 70's. October usually brings good beach weather and cooler evenings perfect for a late night stroll along the shore. For the most part, the high humidity is gone.
A reminder: The annual Sunset at Sunset celebration is this coming Saturday (October 3rd) beside the Ingram Planetarium. Lots of fun with live bands, local food vendors, and arts and crafts. There is a slight chance of rain in the forecast, but we're still hoping for great fall weather. Come out and see us at our booth and grab some FREE stuff!
Give us a call if you need a place to stay! Great off-season rates are in effect now.

Fall Festivals at the Beach
Fall is festival season and two highly anticipated area events are coming up next month. Sunset at Sunset is being held Saturday, October 3rd, beside the Ingram Planetarium in Sunset Beach. The 29th annual North Carolina Oyster Festival is taking place over the weekend of October 17th and 18th on Ocean Isle Beach. Both events will have plenty of entertainment, including live local bands, and food vendors.
We have plenty of nightly rentals still available for both weekends. This is a great opportunity for the whole family to get away for a short weekend. Sunset Properties is a sponsor for both events. We'll have a booth set up with plenty of give-aways. Stop by and say hello.
Check out other upcoming events with our Activities Calendar.

Planet Fun Family Center Now Open
Our area has another fun family attraction to offer with the recent opening of "Planet Fun" just a short drive from our beaches.
This new entertainment center has something for everyone in the family. We were able to tour it as part of a recent Brunswick Chamber of Commerce event, and we had to drag the kids out the door at the end. This is a great spot to keep in mind when you're looking for something new to do off the beach.
The center includes a state-of-art bowling center (32 lanes); a laser tag area (a favorite spot for our two boys); an arcade area (that even the adults had fun in); a 9 hole mini-golf area (fun for the younger kids); and a full restaurant (for those that want to let the kids play while the adults enjoy a quiet meal).
The center is located next to Lowes Home Improvement off of Highway 130 at US 17-close to the area's movie theater. Keep Planet Fun in mind for a rainy day or evening activity on your next vacation to Ocean Isle Beach or Sunset Beach.
