Still love it!

This was my second trip to this wonderful beach house. I loved it as much this time as last. It is my idea of a perfect beach house. My only concern is that by me “singing its praises” to everyone I see, it will be booked up all the time and I won’t be able to rent it again! I definitely want to return!

Beach Stay

The house could use some love. The heater would make a loud noise every time it turned on, making it difficult to get a good night's sleep.

Wonderful vacation!!!

The house was perfect for me and my three friends. It was very clean and best of all had a great porch for us to relax and look at the ocean. It was only a few steps to a beautiful beach. It was quiet, peaceful, and also felt safe for all of us. The property manager was wonderful and I feel certain had we had any problems or concerns, she would have addressed them. As it turned out, though, everything was great just as it was. I loved the house and I love Oak Island!

We had a wonderful time of rest and relaxation. Weather may not have been the greatest but fine for the time of year. No one can control that! We put a puzzle together and played our games and just relaxed. Nice place. We definitely ate too much!

Beautiful Getaway

My family and I had an amazing time at this property in Oak Island. We’ve stayed at many oceanfront places, but have never been this close to the beach! The whole process was very easy start to finish, Just sad it went by so quickly! I would highly recommend this oceanfront beauty to anyone. Thank you!

Great stay at Oak Island

The location was perfect! Loved being able to walk out the back door and onto the beach. Six of us fit comfortably without feeling crowded. We've been coming to Oak Island for 20 years and have stayed in various rentals - we'll put this on the top of our list when we come again.

Great location!

Quiet beachfront area, beach access at bottom of stairs from deck, had our section of the sand pretty much to ourselves. House worked great for the two of us and two furbabies. House was clean, didn’t do any cooking so can’t speak to how well appointed the kitchen is, but did get Publix grocery delivery. Lots of restaurants within a few miles. Wonderful stay!

great location but badly in need of some care

The location of this beach house is great, A/C worked well, bed was comfortable, but there are some things we had some issues with that I do not expect when paying over $500.00 a night to stay somewhere - the house needs quite a bit of interior touch up work, driveway is overgrown, we killed roaches (big and small ones) every night in the house, picture on VRBO indicates the beach and waves can be seen from the deck but the dunes actually block it
