Family Vacation
Sandy Noses was perfect and just as described! We had a great family vacation with our children and grandchildren! We felt right at home, close to the beach and the pool was a big hit! Little disappointed in the rental company and their customer service and delay in responding! We had a problem with the air conditioner but it finally was resolved.

Amazing vacation
We had an absolutely amazing stay! The house was very well appointed with everything we could think we would need even sound machines and night lights. The house was beautifully decorated and everything was as described. We enjoyed short walks to the beach in the mornings then back to an amazing pool in the afternoons and grilling and cooking dinner. Can’t wait to go back! Until next time!

Beautiful home, close to beach access! With the pool/outdoor area being so close to the marsh, our only complaint was not being able to eat outside due to so many flies. Overall, it was great!

Great Property in Oak Island
Sandy Noses was the perfect rental for our family and our dog. We enjoyed the openness of the living room/dining room/ kitchen area. The kitchen was well appointed and provided all the things we needed (and more) to prepare our meals.
The front and rear decks gave us the chance to enjoy both sunrise and sunset. The pool area was perfect for lounging when we weren’t at the beach. The rear of the property faced the marsh, which provided both privact and an opportunity to spot wildlife from the back deck. The pool area was enclosed which allowed our dog to hang out with us.
The beach was a short distance and was an easy walk. The cart, chairs, and umbrellas that were provided was a plus as we didn’t have to pack those items. The beach towels, board games, dog beds were a nice touch as well.
It was our first time vacationing on Oak Island and Sandy Noses met our expectations and more. It provided the laid back beach cottage vibe that we were hoping for. We look forward to next years visit to Oak Island and Sandy Noses.
