Beautiful home, clean, and cozy! The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals during our stay. We had an issue with the crate we had brought with us for our puppy so having one available on-site was a huge plus that saved us from buying a new one while on vacation. We would definitely stay here again:)

Place was nice and clean. A couple of bikes need repair but 2 were in good shape. Yard needs some maintenence but overall the house was very nice and we really enjoyed our stay. Would book again. Love the sun room and furnishings were very comfortable. Plenty of room for everyone. A little ways from the beach but bike rides and walking area was great. Host communicated quickly and precise.

The property was perfect for our family and 2 dogs. House was clean and stocked with everything we needed. Plenty of space and the fenced in lot was perfect for our dogs. Not far from the beach at all. We drove and paid for a week of parking. Close to grocery stores etc. The wagon and beach chairs really came in handy each day! We would definitely stay here again☺️

Great place to stay

We loved this place. It was clean when we arrived, the kitchen was stocked wel with everything you’d need, the location was great and quiet, and the layout of the house made it feel very spacious. Not really anything bad to say. The beach supplies came in handy for sure, although both umbrellas were broken, but not a big deal. Our 2 small kids loved the twin beds in the bedroom and the bed was very comfy. Would love to stay again in the future.

Cozy, clean house at Oak Island

Came here for a family vacation. The house is clean and cozy and we felt comfortable in the space. The house is close to the beach, close enough for a bike ride. There were beach chairs available too. The kitchen is big and functional. Bathrooms were clean and everything worked. When we choose to come back to Oak Island we have no reason to look at any other property, for us this was perfect.

Oak Island Week

All smooth with rental, check-in, and communications with owner. One minor glitch with bedding. But quickly handled by owner. Loved that it is all on one floor. Well appointed place and kitchen and beach stuff that were provided were fine. All in all a very good stay. Oak Island has become our favorite NC beach town and beach.

Family Time at the Coast

Beautifully updated property with charming accents throughout the home. Remodeled and modernized throughout but many original details like exposed beams and (ornamental) fireplace. Baths tastefully remodeled. Not stark but also not cluttered. Dog friendly flooring/furnishings. Clean. Convenient location. Darling courtyard, secluded. Owners thought of everything needed. Quiet area. Nice walkable area, quick drive or bike ride to the beach.

Redfin review

I really enjoyed staying at Redfin. The house was clean and there were plenty of throws to put on furniture to protect it from my dogs. The kitchen was stocked. The location is close to the beach but you will have ride or drive a bit to find a path to the sand. It is an easy bike ride to the beach. It was great to have access to bikes and beach stuff. But if you are taking your dogs to the beach with you, you will have to get in the car to get to the beach. The only thing that isn’t easy to see in the pictures is that the fully fenced yard is not attached to the house. So, if you’re traveling with dogs, you can’t just let them out unattended to go out. But there is a fully fenced enclosure where your dogs can stay. Overall it was a great experience.
