About this property

Sweet Carolina Cottage

Sweet Carolina Cottage has million dollar views and sweet secluded serenity at the edge of Shallotte Inlet and the Atlantic Ocean! You are literally on the edge of America at this breathtaking beach escape!

Traditional Ocean Isle Beach Cottage

Enjoy spectacular million dollar ocean, inlet, and island views from the front deck! Clear views of Holden Beach and Oak Island across Shallotte Inlet, too! Close enough to the ocean to throw a football into the surf at high tide. Sweet Carolina Cottage is a well kept, older beach cottage that enjoys the same unobstructed views as an oceanfront home. There is a street in front of the house, dunes, sandbags, and then the beach! Beach access is a hop, skip, and a jump out the front door and down to the Columbia Street public access!

If you are looking for modern and/or the hustle and bustle of Myrtle Beach, this is not it! This cottage is the 5th house from the east end of the island on a dead-end street. Not much traffic. Great for walking, running, biking, fishing, sunning, and relaxing! Something to do for everyone! Although it is secluded and relaxing you will find all of the amenities right at your fingertips! Shopping and restaurants are just minutes away and there is a awesome homemade ice creamery just down the street, as well as play ground for the kids!
What are you waiting for?! Book your Beach Escape today at the Sweet Carolina Cottage!

Amazing!

Sweet Carolina Cottage far exceeded our expectations. The house was clean upon arrival, there was ample space and more for our family of 4, and the view from the front porch was enough to book again. We enjoyed every meal on the porch and never left island. Highly recommend!

We go to OIB almost every year and this was our favorite house! The view is amazing, seriously can't beat it. My extended family was jealous and they had an oceanfront house. Highly recommend, we will definitely be renting again. 😍

Beautiful spot

We loved the house but there were a couple of issues. One of the front steps was broken and a rocker was broken which we let someone know right away. We had to use the back much steeper much narrower steps to carry all of our things in and when returning from the beach we had to use the back stairs and walk through the house to get to the front porch to sit and dry off. On checkout we decided to hand things down to each other at the front stairs because the back were just too narrow and steep. My brother ended up falling and hurting himself by doing so. I was told the first day that they would try to get someone out to fix the stair but that didn't happen. The people before us left the hose on and laying where we had to move it to get to the back stairs. The storage rooms were unlocked when we got there and the ice maker was left on so I had to clean ice out of the freezer before we could use it. I was very disappointed that an effort was not made to get the stair fixed.

The property doesn't appear to be kept up. The grass was so high that we couldn't sit outside. We got bite up. The water pressure was poor & I didn't get information about needing sheet & towels for my stay so I spent nearly 400 purchasing bedding & towels. It was not a relaxing stay.

Great location, could use some cleaning

This was our second time renting this property. We absolutely love the location of this house and the floor plan works great but the condition and cleanliness of this house has gone downhill over the last year. The house looks like it hasn’t had a deep clean in a very long time and really could benefit from one. Also, the queen beds are in terrible shape- one had a broken leg that had been taped together and the other sounded like it was about to fall through to the ground. Another thing that needs immediate attention is the large mice family that is living in the front yard. We’d love to book this property again but these items would absolutely need to be addressed first.
