Relaxing Stay

We enjoyed our time at Reel Nice. The house was clean and comfortable for the 5 of us. There was plenty of space in the living areas and beds were comfortable. We loved the front and back decks, overlooking the ocean and the beach access was so close. Kitchen is well stocked and the little extras for daily living (toiletries, kitchen supplies, etc.) were helpful. We'll definitely be back again!

Perfect Getaway

We gathered with family for Thanksgiving and the house was just perfect. The host worked with us for our arrival, which was seamless, and the house easily fit our family and dogs. The house was well stocked with everything needed and had the perfect spot to view sunrises and sunsets over the ocean. We are already talking about when we can return.

BACK TO THE BEACH

After 7 years we finally made it back to Oak Island. The house was great. Loved the gates and fenced area for Wendy my grandpup. Outside shower was also a great help when coming back from the beach. The view was perfect for being 2nd row. Very well stocked kitchen. The beach towels at the house also a great perk. Only thing I would suggest is a clock in the living room and more tea towels in the kitchen. Will definetely book again.

Ocean view home

Clean, pet friendly property, located across the street from beach access. All on one floor which was great for our geriatric dog. Beautiful deck overlooking water and another in back for when it was really windy (and to see sunrise).

Fabulous

We had a great time as a family enjoying a beach trip. It was hard to find a place to accommodate what we needed as a family, but the owners were willing to work with us. We could not be happy with our trip and hope to come back soon.:)The remotes were hard to work and internet kept going out. But overall the stay was amazing, especially with the view on the porch. I think that was our favorite part in the mornings, having coffee and listening to the ocean.

Great place at the beach!

This house is directly across from the Ocean Crest fishing pier and beach access. We loved the deck and the great views of the ocean. The beach access right across the street was so convenient. House very nice and up to date. Beds super comfortable and liked the set up with two bedrooms plus bathroom on either side of main living area. Would love to come back here again!
