About this property
House of Zen - Walk to the beach, Huge fenced back yard, Outdoor shower!
The House of Zen is a charming beach cottage located about 5 minutes from the Oak Island's Beaches. Relax by the outdoor fire pit in a FENCED backyard that is great for your children and pets! The beach is an easy drive, walk, or bike ride.
We have bikes, beach chairs, and a buggy to make the trip down to the beach easier or to visit the close by parks and restaurants. The detached building, Zen Den, has a bedroom set up and an office for those who need a remote workplace for a longer stay!
The main house has two bedrooms and the two bathrooms. One room is set up as a kids room with two sets of twin bunk beds while the other is the primary bedroom that has a King size bed.
The detached building is the Zen Den! It has a Queen sized bed, TV, and an office for those who need some extra space or a place to work while visiting! The home is set up with keypad locks that are synced up so that you can have quick access back and forth from the detached room and main house and be secure.
The backyard is fenced in and has access to the shed. In the shed you will find bikes, beach chairs, ladder golf, bocci ball and a buggy for getting all the gear to the beach! A pump and some hardware for the bikes is in there as well just in case.
Pet Fee:
The pet fee covers up to 2 pets! Please make sure your reservation is updated properly. If you are traveling with more than 2 pets, please reach out - sometimes we can accommodate an additional pet on a case-by-case basis for an additional fee. Thanks!

About the host
Hosted by Max McGee
Me and my best friend Eric grew up in Wilmington, NC! A few years back we bought some long term rentals as an investment, but then realized that our passion was in the vacation/short term rental world. We love to travel and being able to provide people with an experience that we would want to have is what this is all about. This is about having a place to come and unwind and create memories while being the comfort of a home. Please come be our guest and don't hesitate to connect with us if your experience isn't 5 STARS!
Why they chose this property
The House of Zen is just the perfect little beach cottage. Cozy, accessible, and private. We have a huge back yard that is fenced in, the area is really quiet, you can walk to the beach, or just use the bikes we have to get all over the island. Just a fun little spot where you can navigate the beautiful Oak Island and surrounding areas.
What makes this property unique
The location is really awesome. You are not only close to the beach, but also super close Myrtle Beach, Southport and Wilmington where there are also downtown areas and other forms of entertainment.
