This beach house was all I hoped it to be. It was perfect! It was clean with beautiful and comfortable furnishings throughout; up-to-date kitchen appliances; plenty of dishware, cookware and silverware; well-maintained inside and out with great beach decor throughout the house. It was easy to check in and check out, and Alaka and Robert were great at communicating with us whenever we had questions. We were able to gather for a weeklong family reunion, enjoying our children and grandchildren with enough room to gather all together for meals and be comfortable, but there were also different places that allowed our family to spread out into small groups. Having a dock right at the house was a plus, and the view on the canal was lovely. That's where most of us sat each night until it got dark. I loved having an outdoor shower and also a closet filled with beach chairs and toys. Everyone loved it. I am grateful for this beautiful place and the hosts.

We loved staying here! You can walk to shops and restaurants, and most importantly, the beach. Three decks made it easy to find a spot to relax in the ocean breeze. We loved have two fridges and such a large kitchen for cooking big meals.

Thank you for sharing your review and we are glad you enjoyed the amazing views from the widows peak. It is one of the most relaxing places to enjoy an early morning coffee or a glass of wine at sunset!

About the host

Hosted by Robert

Host profile image
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.
