Island In This Dream: Family & Dog Friendly Home on Oak Island!

NO PET FEES! We are ready to host your family and pups! This 3 bedroom, 2 bath, pet-friendly home is less than a mile walk to the beach with enough space to sleep 10! Relax outdoors in the screened porch or around the fire pit! Plenty of space to unwind inside and out, upstairs and down. Fully stocked kitchen for cooking all your meals. The dogs and kids can play in the fully fenced backyard. Beach chairs, wagon and toys to use for fun-filled days on the sand! All linens provided and beds made for you!

Less than a mile to Oak Island’s south-facing beaches, Island in this Dream is a 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 1500 sq. ft. home on the island’s west end. Sleeping 10 and feet from the intracoastal waterway and less than a mile from the shore, our home is situated a block off Middleton and Oak Island Drive. The west end of the island is quiet and peaceful, away from the hustle of the local business district. Minutes from grocery stores, restaurants, and shopping.

Plenty of parking (up to 6 cars) in the front of the house. Ample space under the home to store canoes, kayaks, and all your beach gear. We offer a selection of beach chairs and toys for a day on the sand. When you come home, rinse off and rejuvenate in the outdoor shower. Plenty of places to relax outdoors. Cozy up with good book and a cup of coffee on the upper deck. Have dinner outdoors or play games around the big patio table inside the HUGE screened porch. Enjoy an evening under the stars as you toast marshmallows and unwind around the custom stone the firepit. The backyard also has a 6’ fence, perfect for the dogs.

Inside, you’ll find a fully-equipped cook’s kitchen with brand new stainless steel appliances, granite counters, a farmhouse sink and plenty of counter and storage space to spread out. A reverse osmosis water filtration system gives you the freshest and cleanest drinking water during your stay. A 14-cup coffee maker, French press, espresso maker, bean grinder and plenty of mugs will make sure you are well-caffeinated for the day. A 4 slice toaster, blender, microwave and charcoal Weber grill are also available. Extra cookware, silverware, and dinnerware, and glassware fill the cabinets so you are not constantly washing dishes.

The kitchen leads into the open concept living and dining room where the whole family can spread out. A 65” Smart Roku TV has local channels and is wifi-equipped, ready for your streaming service subscriptions. The dining room has a bar area with plenty of tumblers and stemware to enjoy your favorite adult beverages while you play your favorite tunes on the Bluetooth stereo. The dining room table can seat up to 10 (extra chairs provided). A wide selection of books, magazines, and board games can be found to pass the time. The home’s wifi is 1gb Fiberoptic and that can power all of your devices.

When its time for bed, pick your favorite spot to retire. The master bedroom or “Captain’s Quarters” has an en-suite bathroom, a king bed with extra large pillows and extra soft sheets, a 50” Smart TV, and desk with office chair, and plenty of storage in the dresser and closet.

Wonderful Birthday Getaway

We spent a long weekend at Island in This Dream for a birthday getaway, and are so pleased to have found this hidden gem. From the wonderful location, the beautifully decorated and stocked home, and the amenities for our fur babies, we could not have asked for more. This was our first visit to OKI, and we will definitely be back. Thank you Scott and Kerby for sharing your wonderful home!!!

Wonderful Stay!

We had a wonderful time at Island In This Dream. The location was very convenient to the beach and getting into town, the house was very clean and provided all the amenities we needed, Scott was an excellent host and I look forward to recommending this to our friends and family when they come to visit us. We worked remotely from the house and didn't have any connectivity issues and there was space for both of us to have a desk/work space. And we loved having the fenced in backyard for our dog to run around in.

About the host

Hosted by Scott Dickman

Host profile image
We love to travel and stay at awesome places - that's why we've curated a family and pet friendly home equipped with everything you need for your Oak Island Vacation. We love to cook so the kitchen is well stocked. We love a good night's sleep, so the beds are extra plush with blackout curtains. We love unique spaces so we created several places indoors and out for everyone to have their own space.

Why they chose this property

This home is in a prime location on Oak Island. Close to the Middleton bridge, this home is conveniently located less than a mile to the beach and a 5 minute drive either off the Island or to Downtown Oak Island where all the shops and restaurants are located. The west end is a quiet area, perfect for relaxing!

What makes this property unique

This home is large enough for everyone to spread out. Parking for up to 8 cars. Lots of room to explore inside and out, upstairs and down. And you can walk to the beach or to the intracoastal, just feet from the driveway.
