There is a TV over the bar for watching ballgames and more, as well as a Keurig coffee pot and mini-fridge for convenience. Throw in a whiskey barrel, bar stools, some disco lighting, and a beautiful porch and it's the perfect hangout spot!

Oak Island is the best place to stay! This home had everything we needed and was close to the beach and everything that we needed! This island is a gem and we will be back!

So glad you enjoyed your stay Tonyia! Thank you so much for the great review :)
We were very happy with our vacation to Oak Island and this house. It had all kinds of kitchen items and utensils, perfect for a family with kids who want to stay in and eat. It was near to the beach and family-friendly. Great neighborhood! The bedrooms and bathrooms and house de or were very inviting and beautiful. We will definitely consider this home again in the future!

So glad you enjoyed your stay Krystal. Thank you so much for the great review!
We enjoyed a family girls trip to Oak Island. We had room for all 8 of us to be comfortable dining, lounging and sleeping. This place is perfectly decorated! Comfy bed linens and plush couch blankets.
I wouldn’t recommend this place for curious little ones unless very well monitored as there’s nice decor, art, old record albums and a player, etc.
The pictures do not do this beautifully remodeled home justice. We enjoyed our moms weekend away to the fullest. From the wonderful views from the balconies. To cooking and laughing in the kitchen.
This house was a slice of heaven for the weekend.

Thank you so much for your glowing review! I'm so glad you had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed your stay! ;)
This house is a great find, but important to note it is one block from the sound, not from the ocean. You will want to drive to get to the ocean side.
The house itself is very spacious and comfortable. Master bedroom has the most comfortable bed I have ever enjoyed in a rental. Living areas are spacious, and a giant table for plenty of friends and family. The outdoor areas are amazing (fire pit with ample seating, outdoor shower, great Blackstone grill, and 2 screened-in porches). Overall, a great stay. Would have been perfect if close to the ocean.

Thank you for your great review Johnnie! The house is one block from a primary beach access street, not advertised as walking distance to the beach. I'm so glad you had a wonderful stay and appreciate your kind remarks! :)
I’ve stayed at a handful of houses at Oak Island and this one exceeded our expectations. The cleanliness alone would prompt another stay with our group (we have some picky ones 😆). The bedroom set up was great with multiple groups. Everyone had plenty of privacy, space and bathroom accessibility. The openness of the kitchen/ dining/ living room made it easy for meals and hang outs.
The furniture and decor were top notch. A lot of beach houses are retired pieces from owners personal home… the house decor was very well thought out and aesthetic kept throughout the house.
The parking in front and back provided plenty of room. We were able to drive to closest beach access and easily find parking. Communication with Tracie was easy and checking in and out was seamless.
The two porches were wonderful and the two coffee machines were a great touch. We didn’t even get a chance to enjoy all the amenities. Location was great, quiet neighborhood and a mile from Publix. Do not hesitate- book this home!

So glad you enjoyed your stay Erica! Thank you for the great review! :)
We (6 adults spanning 3 generations) really enjoyed our stay at Tranquil Harbour. Tracie was very responsive to our questions and accommodating when we needed to alter the dates of our stay.
The house appears to have been recently renovated and is beautifully decorated in a coastal theme. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and watching the boats on the Intra Coastal Waterway, as well as Oak Island's wide beach and nice warm water.

About the host

Why they chose this property
One of the best things about Dune our Thing is the front porches. Rain or shine, nothing beats sitting in the swing downstairs or on the top deck and watching the boats go by. Also you can't beat hanging in the bar with friends without having to leave the house.
What makes this property unique
There are upstairs and downstairs porches where you can enjoy the intracoastal waterway in a peaceful atmosphere, as well as a backyard patio with seating, a Blackstone grill, and a propane fire pit. And as a bonus, a bar room on the 2nd floor for entertaining and enjoyment.
