You will stay in a charming, updated 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with an open floor plan and a generous balcony overlooking the ocean. This entire cozy home has been fully renovated to offer modern convenience while maintaining classic coastal charm.

The kitchen is thoughtfully equiped with updated appliences and plenty of casserole dishes, baking sheets, cutting boards, etc.

Each bedroom is outfitted with clean, comfortable beds and a dresser or bureau. The master has a queen bed. The second bedroom offers one queen and one twin. The third bedroom offers one queen and a twin bunkbed.

Both bathrooms offer showers. An additional hot & cold water shower with a dressing room is located under the house.

In addition to central AC, ceiling fans are placed in the living room and each bedroom. For spring and fall guests who prefer to leave the windows open, box fans are located in the closets.

OUTSIDE
The ample deck leads directly to the beach path and dunes. The private shower is located at the bottom of the steps. For additional sand-rinsing convenience, there are hoses located at the top of the stairs and in the covered parking area.

The house is on stilts, and the space underneath the house provides s sheltered patio to hang out, gear up, and play. The "sandbox," under the balcony provides additional sheltered play space, where you will find hooks for your travel hammock, or you can hang the red and orange hammock in the master bedroom closet (just remember to shake off the sand and put it away before you leave).

Paved parking is also available below the house and in the paved driveway.

We provide quilts, pillows, bath mats, and kitchen cloths & towels. You will need to bring, add-on, or rent bed linens and bathroom towels/ cloths. (You will find a tote bin with some extra sheets and towels. If you use them, you must launder them and return them to the bin.)

ADD-ON LINENS PACKAGE
$125: Bedroom and bathroom linens. Arrive to find sheets already on the beds. Before departure, you will need to strip beds, have sheets washed and in the dryer, and have towels running in the washing machine. Message me with your add-on request.

BEACH GEAR & BIKES
The Shibumi shade is hanging by the door. We provide a selection of beach chairs and sand and water toys. Please note that beach chairs will show wear. We replace them often, but they hang outside in the salt air.

You will find bicycles under the house. Chain oil and a tire pump are under the kitchen sink. BYO helmets. When you take out the bikes, you agree to ride at your own risk. We replace bikes often, but as with the beach chairs, expect wear from the salt air.

Location is amazing, one house over from beach access. Layout was very good, beds comfortable, house was clean. The bad, the air conditioner needs to be upgraded as the house would get very hot at night. If you are looking for a single story , clean, comfortable house in an excellent location , this is the place, just bring fans to help keep cooler in evenings and nights.

We’re so glad you enjoyed the location and the single story layout. We did follow up with HVAC, and while the air conditioner was working properly during your stay, they said they got a lot of calls during that week because temperatures were up over 100. I hope you were able to find the fans in the closets.

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!!
