Great little house with zero steps. This bungalow was perfect for my wheelchair bound dog, who loved the slight ramp up to the door, and the rugs throughout the house. To get to the beach, turn left from the driveway and take the first right. Literally just a few minutes. At night, when everything is quiet, you can hear the ocean from the house. House was very clean and well stocked. We'll definitely be back.

The property is terrific in its location being a single story house thats within 5 minutes to the beach. It's perfect for the 2 of us and our 2 small dogs who had a blast running in the huge fenced in back yard. The inside is very clean and well organized. The master bedroom was very comfortable and the bathrooms are very modernized. You will have to bring or buy/rent some beach chairs and other things for the beach but we brought our own. The area is very quiet at night and not alot of traffic during the day. The screened porch is great for sitting and relaxing after a busy day of fun and sun. Overall, this was a great place to stay in the land of the 2 and 3 story homes and would definitely stay again on our next trip here.

My husband and I had never been to Oak Island before and decided we wanted to give it a try. We found this house and immediately knew it was perfect for us, our toddler, and our Labrador, Merle! My dad also tagged along and we had a blast!! Coffee on the porch every morning was the best and both our toddler and dog LOVED the screened in porch. Fenced in yard was perfect for them both to run. We will definitely be back!

Cozy beach house
Home description and pictures were accurate. House also has keurig. Very nice stay. Oak Island...is all about the beach. 1 block walk to beach access. If walking in loose sand, a matted beach access is just a few blocks more. So relaxing.

Cozy near beach
We enjoyed our stay with our kids and pups. It was cozy and close to the beach. Just a short walk to the beach, pier, and nature boardwalk across the creek. A suggestion would be to add a hair dryer, mat at the door, a cutting board, and more games. We’d absolutely stay again.

We enjoyed our stay at the Dancing Dolphin! We started our day with coffee on the screened porch and formulated a plan for the day. The beach was within walking distance and the rest of our family was 5 doors away. Stores and restaurants close by. A great vacation for all!

Oh my goodness! We have found our new favorite OKI home! I've already looked to borrow it again and it's booked! There's a reason for that. It is decorated just right, the bed was comfy, the walk to the bed was easy and the screened porch was nice! 👍 It was perfection!

Nice Beach Cottage
My Sister and I had a great stay at this Beach Cottage. The cottage was clean and neat, and well taken care of . There were a few things we needed as we cooked all week, happens when you are on a fixed income. Plan on returning later this year with husband and fur baby, as back yard was fenced and I am sure she will love playing there. Cottage is within walking distance to the public beach access, (less than 1/2 a block to corner and 1 block to beach) and to the many paths that cross over the marsh, whch makes for a great stay. The best thing about this cottage is that both bathrooms have walk in showers and the bathrooms are large, have stayed at other places in Oak Island where that is not the case. I have to say the layout of this cottage is great and even though it is smaller than other places you still feel you are in a larger place.

Oak Island Vacation
We really liked the location of this cottage to the beach, shopping and restaurants. The beach cottage was clean and very comfortable for our stay. We loved having a screened in front porch and a fenced backyard for our dog.
The property manager Vicki was also very helpful during the booking process and with any questions we had.
We will stay at this beach cottage again!

Great place!
It was a short 2 night visit for us as we were attending a funeral in Southport. The house is very well planned for being small. The beds were super comfortable and baths were big and very clean. Also, the kitchen was large and the only thing lacking was a dishwasher, but we did fine without it.
