First timers

For many in my group, this was our first time in OKI. This house and Dave made our trip easy and memorable! There were so many things at the house to help us enjoy it and the beach. We loved hanging out on the multiple decks and the giant sectional was the perfect gathering spot our late night conversations.

Vay-K before new gig

My wife, 4 kids and I stayed at David’s place in Oak Island. It was PERFECT. We wanted to be close to the beach, the walk was short and easily manageable. If we needed anything it was really easy to make a quick trip and be back in the sun. The house was very clean and comfortable. David was VERY responsive. Would definitely recommend and want to come back!

About the host

Hosted by David Mayers

I'm Dave Mayers, and I'm so delighted you're considering or have booked time at our vacation home in Oak Island. I reside mostly at our home in Charlotte, NC, and am married with 3 children ranging in age from a freshman in high school, to a senior in college.

I work for a large consulting company, and I personally specialize in providing software services and consulting for power utilities, gas utilities and water utilities. I've also been an avid real estate investor since 2005, investing mostly in single family rental houses in the Charlotte area.

The recent purchase of this home on Oak Island is a departure for me, both in terms of type of real estate investing, and location. It is perhaps the first step towards retirement, with this house likely becoming a future full time residence for me and my wife. In the interim, it is a place for us to vacation and to pour our heart and soul into shaping and molding. I've always had what I call a "passion for place", and love to take overlooked properties and create something special. I've done this for years in typical residential areas of Charlotte - but having a canvas like this one on Oak Island by the ocean has infused me with a new energy and passion.

I'm genuinely excited to share our home with you, and hope that it gives you the coastal experience you're seeking, perhaps with a unique flair. In fact, one of the things I'm most looking forward to is hearing your feedback after you've had the chance to vacation here - something I didn't get with my residential properties with tenants who lived there for a year or more! Your real time feedback will help me focus my "passion for place" into continuously improving the property in ways I may not have previously considered.

I hope you will find this home as relaxing and enjoyable as I do, and please don't hesitate to reach out to me during your stay if anything is not up to standard in any way. Cheers!

Why they chose this property

I purchased this property because of its location on the quieter western side of Oak Island. Also, I felt that this property was unique with its combination of both easy and quick beach access, along with unparalleled views of the Davis Canal from the expansive back deck. Additionally, I was compelled by the fact that this custom built home had never been rented, and was recently updated inside. I personally invested heavily on upgrading the exterior with paint, and with brand new decks to complete the vision of a superior Oak Island vacation home.

What makes this property unique

This house is unique in that it features both fantastic ocean views, and views of the Davis Canal (which are perhaps even more spectacular). Also, the house has been recently modernized and upgraded, and has never previously been rented until this year (2022). While the house is setup to sleep up to 8 people, it could easily host groups of up to 16 for meals and/or family gatherings with its expansive living and dining areas, making it an ideal central location for extended family gatherings who may be renting nearby.
