Great ocean view property. The front porch swings were wonderful, and the owners were friendly and helpful.

Thank you Leah, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to host you again! I can't disagree, you can't beat a cup of coffee of glass of wine on those porch swings with the view!

Nice vacation rental close to the beach. The spiral staircase was challenging to navigate for those with arthritic knees.

Thanks for your review, Doug and glad you enjoyed your stay! Admittedly, the spiral stairs are not how we would have built it but they had different plans in the 70's! We do our best to be upfront about it in the listing. I hope that it won't keep you from visiting us again as we enjoyed hosting you!
We had the best time at the house! We love that we were able to bring our whole family, including the dog. The view from the balcony was spectacular. The host was so great and very communicative. Nothing but outstanding reviews for this stay!

This beach house was perfect for our family! The location is great with easy access to grocery stores and local shops. The beach access is right across the street. Valerie was very responsive and easy to communicate with before and during our stay.

Thank you, Amy! We are thrilled we were able to host you for your stay and you enjoyed everything about our little island.
Good view. Property needs a deep clean. It would also be nice if there were a few beach necessities for the guest (chairs, umbrella and a few kids toys)

Thanks for your feedback—we’re glad you enjoyed the view. This is a laid-back beach cottage, not a luxury property, and it’s priced accordingly to offer strong value for the location.
That said, cleanliness should always be top notch, and we’ll reinforce that with our cleaning team. We also appreciate the suggestion about beach gear. While we don’t currently provide chairs or umbrellas, we’ll take that into consideration as we look at ways to improve the guest experience without raising rates.
Thanks again for staying with us.
This was truly HEAVEN on earth. I was so sad to leave!! We had such a wonderful time. I love that this was available to us, I have no problem at all to bring your own chairs and paper towels and sheets & bath towels. So worth it for this experience. Thank you! We will be booking again very soon!

Thank you Adriana, and we are glad you enjoyed our little slice of heaven. We hope to host you again!
Our family enjoyed our stay! The location to restaurants, grocery store and the beach were wonderful and convenient.
Having a place to rinse off the items we took to the beach daily was an added bonus!
My husband even said he would happily stay here, again!

We stayed for a long weekend for a big family gathering in the area. Access to the beach was a breeze. Host was very responsive and kindly and quickly mailed back an item that was left behind. We enjoyed relaxing on both the upstair and downstair patios where we could see and hear the ocean.
My family and I had a great time. We had great weather beach access was awesome. Having Publix and Food Lion just right around the corner Was a nice accommodation. Would definitely rent this place again

Great location, quick and easy walk to the beach. The house is very well stocked and worked for our family. Great value for the rental with accurate photos. The spiral staircase is tight! I wouldn’t recommend small children or anyone with mobility issues in the upstairs bedrooms.
This property is directly across from beach access and literally less than 100 yards to the water. The views are amazing. The check in process was super easy and the place was exactly what we needed. Will definitely stay here again the next time we visit Oak Island.

I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay! We would love to host you or your daughter again any time! Come back!
We loved the location and easy access to the beach. Getting our luggage to the second floor was a little challenging with the spiral staircase. We really enjoyed the swings on the bottom porch and the view from the top porch was amazing.
This is a great spot with a fantastic view, and a ton of things to do whether you're on a family vacation or just travelling as a pair. You don't want to miss out on this gem. Property manager is extremely easy to work with and clearly lays out the requirements before the stay. Awesome vacation!

Wow, I’m so sorry you felt this way. We have never had problems with mold in our units and never had a review like this. No one lives there full time and we have the furniture cleaned regularly. I wish you would have reached out during your stay to let me know your concerns.
Everything about my stay was perfect, from booking it, and my communications with Valerie (who is on point, kind, and helpful, btw), to the stay itself! Gorgeous unobstructed views of the beach, amazingly gorgeous sunsets to soak in, peaceful and clean home in a perfect location, that has all that you need to enjoy your stay! Had an absolutely amazing weekend in every way! Thank you Valerie for opening up your home to me! I will be back! In fact, I already have it rebooked! :) Can't wait!! :)
