Set back from the hustle and bustle of the oceanfront road but still walking distance to the beach, this comfortable home allows you to experience the quieter pace of Oak Island life and fill your vacation time with Lay Z Days! While you can also enjoy the outdoors from the front covered porch with furniture, the real crown jewel of this property is the three levels of outdoor living areas on the back overlooking the marsh. Featuring spectacular views of native wildlife, these areas of open and covered decking include plenty of furniture to use for relaxing, including a porch swing! With the front porch opening into two of the home's bedrooms, the floorplan is designed to take advantage of the beautiful marsh and canal view in the back of the house, with the family room, kitchen and dining area adjoining the expansive back deck.
Try your hand at fishing and and crabbing in the canal off the backyard. When you're ready to prepare your catch of the day, you'll find a gas grill waiting nearby, along with multiple seating options for al fresco dining. Or, move indoors for the evening, where an expansive and updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a sturdy dining table seating six are just waiting to enjoy family meals. If you tire of watching the wildlife, four Smart TVs throughout the property have streaming capabilities with Roku Live, Blu-ray player and DVDs. The owner also provides family friendly amenities such as a high chair and baby gate.
We really liked this home. Views of the marsh in back were spectacular! We loved relaxing on the the back deck which is well appointed with fans, comfortable chairs, lighting and blue tooth speakers. Proximity to ocean beach is good- easy walk. Would suggest providing guests with a roller wagon or two for easier transport of beach supplies. Bathrooms have been nicely renovated. And kitchen was great for cooking- new and functional appliances as well as decent amount of pots pans and kitchen tools. Stayed here with our two daughters and they loved the beach as well as access to the marsh- our older daughter went paddleboarding right off the back yard! Would definitely stay again and recommend this comfortable home.
My family enjoyed the peaceful view and location. It is just about a 5-10 minute walk to the beach and is a direct shot to the public access point.
The house is spacious and the large outdoor deck makes it easy to cook and eat outdoors overlooking the marsh.
Kitchen was stocked well, but remember your spices. We forgot them of course, but made due.
Overall a great stay!
