We had such a great time at this Oak Island beach house! The house was clean, the beds were comfortable, and the location couldn’t have been better. Having access to rent the golf cart to cruise around in was such a fun bonus. The owners really thought of everything—even down to extra dog bowls and a crate, which made it so easy for us to bring our pup along and the beach chairs, umbrellas and boogie boards. It was the perfect spot for a relaxing getaway, and we’d definitely stay here again!

Perfect little home.

Didn’t really spend much time at the property. But it was perfect for our needs. I have family in Southport so this is close enough and yet gives us the ability to spend a short time on the beach as well for some alone time. Thank you for sharing your home. The May’s

Disliked: Cleanliness

Poorly managed property

1. The whole house had a musty smell which propagated to our clothing. 2. The scatter rugs are a safety hazard as they easily slip and move under your feet. 3. We did not have the property to ourselves as there was a boat on the property which came and went. 4. After emptying the trash cans they were immediately filled up by someone other than us. 5. Two round bowls in the kitchen had discussing stains in them so we were concerned about using them. We have used VRBO twice before and this was the worst experience of them all.

Wonderful stay!

The place was exactly as described. Great location to everything! We had a wonderful stay and will look for available dates when we come back to the area! The host was very informative with everything we may have needed to know. We loved that umbrellas, beach chairs, toys, etc. were available to use!

We were in town for a wedding. This house was well located. It had everything we needed to feel at home. The fenced yard and quiet neighborhood were great… and we could walk to the beach ( or drive). Enjoyed our week! 😎

Cute House

The house was cute. Rooms where a great size. Mattresses is all three beds were awful. Cleanliness was an issue. The "House" instructions including stripping the beds and putting laundry in a basket, but the cleaning company had their own rules that included sweeping all of the floors before you leave. We found 3 LARGE acrylic fingernail around the house that was pretty gross. The beds are not made when you get there. The sheets are in a plastic package to ensure cleanliness, but it also means you had to make the beds. The owner was great about communication, just wish the cleaning company was better.
