About the host
Hosted by Robert
After years of enjoying Ocean Isle Beach with friends, family and our children we decided we wanted to have our own home to continue to make wonderful memories!
Why they chose this property
We spent a week renting on Laurinburg Street and decided this was the place for us. From Laurinburg St. it's a fun walk to the downtown area, pier, restaurants, playground, museum and most importantly the beach. Park the car and leave it even with small feet you can get where you want to go. Enjoy fishing, kayaking and crabbing off the dock on the canal and if you are feeling adventurous go boating and jet skiing then dock them at the canal. On a rainy day or if you need a break from the beach walk over to the Museum of the Coastal Carolina's and you will not be disappointed. The property is in the ideal location and offers opportunities inside and out. Relax on any of the 5 outdoor porches and for an amazing view head to the widows watch at the top. The best place to watch the sun rise and set with the beverage of your choice.
What makes this property unique
We wanted to be at the beach, but we wanted to get more than just the beach and sand experience. This house gives kids and adults access to much than the beach. You can easily walk to the pier, ice cream shop, restaurants, mini-golf and then head to the beach. Enjoy the day fishing from the dock and jet skiing in the inter coastal waterways.
