Easy beach access and close to town

We enjoyed our stay and the home was very clean! We came in the winter and it's still a great time to visit the beach. The town of OKI was decorated for Christmas and we enjoyed that everything was a close drive.

Wonderful beach house!

Great Stay with kids

The house was clean and well-maintained. Check-in process was easy and the host was communicative. The location was great, just steps onto the beach and right down the street from a great park and some restaurants. We really appreciated the extra touches for little people, including the small table and chairs, small Adirondack chairs, children’s books, kids plates/dishes and step tool. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped! We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Family Beach trip

The house is perfectly equipped for a family with kids. It will probably take you longer to put your bathing suit on than it will to go from door step to beach… Plenty of local places to eat… Barely knew that the neighbors were there…. We had a blast! Also very reasonably priced

Perfect beach side stay

A lovely place to relax by the beach! The house is so cute and super convenient! Aside from being beach front, it's also minutes away from great restaurants, grocery store, and shopping. We visited for a long weekend with family (all adults) and we were very happy with our stay. The house was clean and updated, kitchen was fully stocked, the beds were comfortable, and the living room was spacious. The host was very responsive and helpful. We will definitely stay here again!

Comfortable and clean home

My family and I really enjoyed the house and the beach at Oak Island last week. The house had everything we needed and was most comfortable and very clean and well kept. Louann, the owner, sent us all the info we needed and was quick to respond if we had a question. We would definitely visit again!!

Perfect Getaway

I can't say enough good things about the "Atlantic Dream". The layout is nice. A very short walk to the beach. There is a shower and patio under the house. A good place to clean up before heading upstairs. We were pleasantly surprised to find children's books, toys, and even a small table and chairs for the kids. Everyone had a great time.

Extremely clean and nice beach house

We enjoyed several nights at Atlantic Dream and that's the exact word that comes to mind for this house.... dream! It is indeed a very comfortable and extremely clean beach house directly on the oceanfront. Just a short distance to the ocean on a very well maintained access right beside the house with a clearly marked sand dune crossing.. The view from the oceanfront porch was spectacular! We will definitely be back! A special thanks to the owners for their quick response with any questions that we had.

Anniversary get away

The house was perfect. It’s positioned right on the beach with easy access. It’s close to all things Oak Island. My wife and I hadn’t been back to Oak Island in many years. We were married there 19 years ago. We decided to finally take the opportunity to get back to the beach and more importantly, get back to quality time together, even if just for a long weekend. This house was perfect for our special weekend. It was clean and well laid out, The host was very thoughtful in ensuring that every necessity was provided. Communication was excellent. I would highly recommend this property. If you’re looking for a home that is close to everything, easy beach access, and very comfy, this is definitely it. Thank you for letting us use your home.

Awesome location & beautiful home!

Everything was perfect about the home and matched up to the description that was posted. My adult sons were even bragging about how beautiful this rental property was and how great the location. We had plenty of room for 5 adults. The only negative was there were tractors parked on the beach directly in front of the home, but that was NOT the owners fault, it appeared that maybe some construction work was being done on the public beach access which was located one home over. We didn't mind looking around them. If you love the sunrise and sunsets then this is the house for you, it sets high enough to capture great pictures (even around any obstacles, like tractors parked on the beach). I'm sure this is a temporary thing and this is something we could NOT hold against the property :) The rental owner, Louann, was easy to deal with and would promptly respond to any email that I sent over to her. She is awesome, made this a great experience and we will definitely be renting from her again. The home décor is beautifully displayed, the kitchen had up to date appliances, the bathrooms were awesome too! The master bed slept much better than most hotels that I ever stayed in. I highly recommend this rental property!!

4 generations beach trip

It was a great place to stay very clean and was a good size for my family, only I thought we would be able to sit on back deck and see the beach but the deck was not high enough to see over sand dunes, we had a 81 yr old who would have loved to be able to see our 6 yr old playing on the beach but she was not able to walk on beach. Also I have never stayed where the linen was not provided when I book I didn’t think it would make a difference but now I think I will always stay where linen is provided.

About the host

Hosted by Erin Pushman

Host profile image
Oak Island has been an important part of our lives since my husband and I met twenty years ago. We’ve always loved introducing people to this special island. Now, we have four growing children who love OKI for the beach and the coastal ecosystem, especially the sea turtles who nest here every year. This house is our family’s special place. Hosting makes beach house ownership sustainable and gives us the chance to share our love for the island with all of you.


As our guests, we want you to feel as comfortable here as we do. We work to keep the house exceptionally clean and very cozy.

As nature lovers, we pick up trash on the beach and ICW to keep it from being eaten by turtles or other marine life. We also spend time walking the scenic trails along the marsh and over Davis Canal and enjoying OKIs many parks.

Why they chose this property

This beach house is our dream come true. We wanted to be on the beach and have unobstructed views of the ocean. After completely renovating this property we are now ready to enjoy it with our family and friends. This island offers quiet, clean, safe and friendly beach and community. Great place to enjoy retirement in the off season.
OKI has wonderful restaurants, fresh seafood and plenty of activities for everyone. If you like to bicycle this is the place. Ten miles of flat terrain, beautiful Ocean and Intercostal scenery. You won't be disappointed!

What makes this property unique

This family oriented beach has everything you will need to relax and enjoy your vacation. Enjoy your morning coffee on the deck and watch the sunrise while taking in the ocean breeze or enjoy your evening with a drink on the deck watching the breathtaking sunset. Stroll on the white sandy beach picking shells and enjoying each others company. Children will enjoy playing in the backyard while parents sit on the deck relaxing. Great restaurants with FRESH SEAFOOD, Food Lion, Publix sand Lowes grocery store on/around island, public library, coffee shop, Dairy Queen, pizza and sandwich shops all within 1-4 miles of this beachfront house. Tennis, golf, kayaking, skateboarding, fishing all close by. We allow monthly renters in the off season November - March which is very relaxing and perfect weather. Come stay at Atlantic Dream and you will see what we are talking about!!
