We arrive and coded in at check in time. Easy Breezy. After looking through we found so many sweet touches that made our visit welcome and enjoyable. WiFi access and TV for those down times was helpful and enjoyed as well. The back yard space was perfect for dogs and hanging out. We will book again for our next Oak Island trip!

Perfect location for this little cottage with everything we needed! Our terrier Bert loved the yard - equipped w frisbee golf, hammock and fire pit. We spent almost every night out there. Being so close to Holly - vacationers can scoot down to 40th and it’s a straight shot to beach access. Beds and linens were comfy and they thought of all the extras you dont always think to include! Great stay and a great house!

This beach house was as described and was the perfect staging point for a great week at the beach. From plenty of sleeping space, well-appointed kitchen, outdoor shower, and convenient fenced in yard for our 2 dogs… it had all of the amenities we needed. House was and smelled clean on arrival. Just a short 3 min drive to beach by golf cart. Shannon was a fantastic host and even made it easy for us to extend our stay an extra night. Thank you for our family’s 2026 beach memories!
