The kitchen is fully stocked with all you need to fix delicious meals and an insta-hot water heater on the kitchen sink. From French presses and espresso maker to your favorite brewed pot, this is a coffee aficionado’s dream. With a whole home water filtration system, you will have the best tasting water on the island. The dining table has an extra "leaf" to expand to 8 guests, extra chairs in the living room. With plenty of vases, be sure to pick fresh flowers to accentuate your table. The charcoal grill and fresh herbs in the backyard can add flavor to your day’s catch (caught or bought).

Morning or evening, bring your coffee or wine onto the screened-in porch to relax. Continue to the backyard to find a table for al fresco dining. A wooden bench swing allows for a full view of the exquisite gardens in the fenced-in backyard.

From bikes and scooters to boogie boards and sand toys there’s plenty to keep everyone busy. Easily carry what you need onto the beach with the handy beach cart. There’s even a large, easy to assemble screen house.

When the day is done, choose from 3 bedrooms to dream about your adventures so far. The primary bedroom, with a king-sized bed, has an ensuite with a tub / shower combination and an insta-hot water heater. Guest room 1 has a queen & guest room 2 has a full and share a bathroom. All 3 bedrooms make it easy to charge your devices using lamps with built-in USB ports. Stream your favorite shows in the primary room or the guest room with a Roku TV to enjoy your evening shows.

Full-sized washer and dryer makes it easier to pack less. Two pet covers are provided to keep fur at bay. Dry your beach towels in the sun on the clothesline in the backyard. Note the shoe scrapers outside each door to keep things cleaner inside.

This is truly a dream house with a white picket fence, sunny yellow flowers peek through the pickets to greet you. You may not be able to resist the swing in the shaded front yard before you enter. Since this cottage is not on a through street, you can enjoy the sounds of nature. The home is only 10-15 mins to the beach by walking using the walkway bridge just 2 streets over, and even faster using the available bikes.

A happy beach week!

We had a great stay at Beach Blessing. We were in town to visit family on OKI and this was the perfect house. Stocked with bikes, beach necessities, games, and everything else needed to have a great family vacation. The only thing missing was a toaster!

Lovely Cottage!

We had a wonderful time at Beach Blessing! It was perfect for our small family including our dog. The kitchen is well stocked and we enjoyed the large TV in the living room. We enjoyed the swing out front and in the backyard, along with the beautiful flower garden! We also made use of the bikes and went on many walks over the scenic bridge to the beach, about 10-15 minute walk. The cottage is very clean and everything is in working order. We would stay here again!

Small but perfect

We chose the property because it was dog friendly and had a fenced yard. We chose it because of the dogs, but not only did they love the screened porch and glorious back yard, so did we! The kitchen is superbly stocked with every manner of cooking utensil imaginable. The house is decorated so comfortably. It literally felt like being at home! The shed has bikes and beach equipment so there was no need to pack any for the trip. The beaches are only a short drive and there is always parking. We would have walked, but the walkway to the beach was closed due to construction. We loved it so much, we are going to book for next summer here❤️

Beach Blessing

Well, the name of the property is appropriate--we found the accommodations relaxing and rejuvenating--from the comfortable bedding to the back yard garden. And the amenities for the beach (and bikes) were greatly appreciated. We found the kitchen perhaps the best equipped than any rental property ever--from the expresso machine to the cutlery/dinner ware to the spices and cooking aides! And the location--a short walk to the beach over a marsh walkway or quick drive to one of OKI's well placed parking spots--made the beach seem like it was just across the street. And finally, James at iTrip was always easily available and ready to assist. We will look forward with great anticipation to the next trip to OKI!

Excellent property - only a few blocks from the beach.

I highly recommend this house. It was only a few blocks from the bridge over a beautiful marsh. The house is bright and clean and really has everything that you need. My kids loved the large TV and we all enjoyed the bikes. Oak Island is very quiet so make sure you enjoy are looking for low key. We loved our stay.
