This property was absolutely perfect and the owners are lovely- I'd recommend staying here to anyone. You're close to everything, but it's quiet, the porch is lovely for working/dining/having coffee in the morning and the beds are so comfortable. The property has everything you need and more. We hope to stay here again soon!

This is our second time staying here, and we absolutely love it! This home has become one of our favorite places to stay when we vacation at Oak Island Beach. It’s comfortable, welcoming, and spacious enough for three couples to enjoy without feeling crowded. Our favorite part is having our early morning coffee on the screened-in front porch—it’s such a peaceful way to start the day. We also love being within walking distance of the inlet, where we can take slow, relaxing walks along the waterfront and simply enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The kitchen was wonderful and fully stocked with everything needed. Beds were very comfortable. We thought it was so sweet that they had toys there for the kids. We loved the screen in porch and it was only a 5 minute drive to the beach, restaurants and shops. The house is Right beside the boat ramp which was perfect for our family. The host was very quick to respond with any questions. Great place, would definitely recommend and are hoping to come back next year! This was by far one my favorite houses I’ve stayed in.

Great property!! House as advertised. Great house for a family beach trip! Close to everything you need and on a nice quiet street. My toddler loved the kid toys and we appreciated the beach gear we used while there. Host has great communication and place was clean and tidy upon arrival. We hope to stay here again in the future.

Jen is the fairy godmother of VRBO hosts! You can tell she has really thought about what guests actually need. This house was perfect for our family.Our teens loved having their own space to hang out, whether it was in the living room or out on the screened-in porch while the adults relaxed. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals, and the grill was a nice bonus.The bikes, beach chairs, beach toys, and outdoor shower were all things we really appreciated. The house was exactly as described, very clean, comfortable, and in a great location. Jen was easy to communicate with and made everything simple from start to finish.We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and would love to come back.

Jen and Ken were fantastic to communicate with - prompt and kind. The house was adorable, and in a great little community. We thought it would be a shorter walk to the beach, but really, it was best to drive. It was a very quick drive to the beach, only taking a few minutes. We were a bit disappointed that you had to pay for parking, 5 per hour, or 20 for an entire day, as we've stayed along the coast of NC quite a few times and typically found free parking right at the dunes or would have a parking pass provided by the owners of homes. A parking pass would be fantastic, if that would be something that the owners could obtain. We loved Ruby's coffee and breakfast cafe just a few minutes down the street at the Oak Island Fishing Pier! The beaches weren't crowded at all, which is fantastic. Water was about 82 degrees when we ventured into it during the week, very warm. The house is very close to grocery stores and shops. Quiet, friendly neighborhood. We had a great time, and really were happy with the price for the entire week, having an entire home to ourselves. Would highly recommend!

Beautiful home with amazing wraparound porch

A wonderful place to come and relax. Even though we didn't have the best weather the screened in porch let us be outside without getting rained on.

Excellent. We can't control the weather but if you do have to be on lock down, that screened porch is a life saver. Please come again. :)

Cute and Cozy

We stayed here for our annual beach trip. House was close to everything in OKI and the beach! Kitchen was well equipped for our week long stay. We enjoyed sitting on the porch for dinner and games at night. Owners were very accommodating and quick to respond when we needed help! Would stay here again!!

Relaxing beach getaway

W have had such a wonderful experience. The hosts were easy to communicate with both before and during our trip. It's a beautiful home, very clean and is just as advertised on the site. It has a huge wraparound porch where we spent a lot of our time and the outdoor fans kept it comfortable even in the heat. Our first time using vrbo and we are very happy we did.

This house was the most equipped house w have ever rented. Loys of kitchen gadgets. The pouch was amazing, adding a lot more living space. Very close to beach access, restaurants and shopping. Working with the property owners were great and they were very caring! This is a five star rental!
