Review CT:
The experience was great, the owners were great and easy to get in touch with. The property was even better than described, we felt at home and were so relaxed. The beach is so close and convenient as well as all of the wonderful shops and restaurants.
Review AC:
This is our second time staying at Donkeys Inn and it was just as great the second time! Everything was there that we needed for a home away from home. Also so close to beach, we were able to walk.
Review JG:
We had a great time. The owners were amazing and very helpful. The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. The little ones especially loved the short wagon ride to the beach. We will be back!

About the host

We have used this as our vacation getaway for years with family and friends. We invite you to enjoy Donkeys Inn and Oak Island. You can keep your vacation local and enjoy OKI or you can travel a short distance to historic Wilmington NC, Calabash NC, Myrtle Beach SC, Barefoot Landing, Broadway, Carolina Opry with shopping and theater performances.
Why they chose this property
Purchase of this property gave our family opportunity to bond and share relaxing times together. It is a place our children call home and our friends call their get-away. There are opportunities to walk on the shore line at sun rise and sunset (perfect for photography), play in surf, walk and fish on piers, rent bikes for scenic rides, inland waterway views with marsh lands, surf fish, hike nature trails and all enjoyed by our children and friends.
What makes this property unique
Location, location and Location
We are on a quiet street just 3 blocks from the shore. At night and early in the morning you can hear the sounds of the sea's roar while you sit on the porch. If you drive to the Cabana by the ocean you have lots of parking. It is about a 7 minute walk to the beach. We are a half block from a playground. We are 7 blocks from Food Lion and even closer to BBQ and fish to eat.
