About this property

Updated, dog-friendly home near the beach with fenced yard, grill, central AC, & washer/dryer

New in our program, this home has many great reviews from past guests.

Enjoy a pet-friendly, private comfort close to the beach at this lovingly updated home. Public beach access will be just a mile from your front door, with the Ocean Crest Fishing Pier just a half-mile further. Anglers will have their choice of off-shore fishing charter services and golfers in the group will find some great nearby golf courses including Oak Island Golf Course and the Fred Couples-designed Carolina National.

The renovated interior comes fully appointed for modern coastal comfort. The single-level layout features an open floor plan blending the kitchen, living, and dining areas for seamless group gatherings. Plush seating and smart TV welcome casual downtime, while the sparkling stainless steel kitchen boasts a full suite of stainless steel appliances for easy home cooking.

A private grill and patio set the stage for backyard barbecues.

Great Location

The home is in a great location—tucked away in a quiet neighborhood and just a short 5-minute drive to beach access, which we really enjoyed. Communication with Guest Services was responsive and appreciated. That said, there were a few details around cleanliness and amenities that didn’t quite meet the standard we’ve experienced with other stays. With a little more attention in those areas, this could be a truly great rental.

Wonderful Home away from home

Beautiful and very comfortable home. Close to beach, stores and restaurants. Loved the quietness of the west end of Oak Island. Very comfy bed and furniture. Loved the screened in back porch. Well stocked kitchen with everything needed for home cooked meals. We’ll definitely stay here again if available. It was one of our favorites.
