Wonderful!

We had a great vacation and really enjoyed our stay. The house was perfect for us and was everything we needed! So relaxing and felt like home! We didn't mind not having a TV in our bedroom, the kids did have one in theirs which I thought was a great idea for when we were at the home. We had rented a golf cart and enjoyed the ride around to the shops and the beach as well. Thank you Bill for providing us with a home away from home! I would definitely recommend this rental for anyone looking to get away to Oak Island :)

Lovely Rental

The owner allowed us to check in early which was fabulous. The house has a spacious living area and plenty of seating around the dining room table. I appreciate when a rental has enough seating at the table for the amount of people that rent the house. The outside front porch and the screened in porch were well used. The kitchen was stocked with most of the items we needed. A few more larger pots would have been appreciated since we cook every night in the house. There is a large pantry where you can store your food that you bring and the washer and dryer were great. Any issues we had the owner fixed immediately. We had internet issues but apparently the entire area does. I would definitely stay there again. The owner was great to work with and the drive to the beach was short.

Needs some deep cleaning

Pro:Home was located in a nice neighborhood and only a few miles from the beach. Con: Home was clean on the surface but in desperate need of deep cleaning, very dusty, had to vacuum under beds, couch was covered in stains and we had to vacuum under cushions which by the looks had not been done in a long time. Needs some TLC!!!

Nice place

We came for a short girls time to celebrate a birthday. House was clean, beds comfortable, plenty of room for the 4 of us. We used the screened porch every night. If you like walking it’s a nice walk to the beach or a few minute drive. Kitchen was stocked good (even though we didn’t use much of it). Owner was awesome to communicate with.

Great location, quiet neighborhood and nice layout

Five minutes from the beach and the screen porch is a big plus. We very much enjoyed our stay and the neighbors are great. I would, however prefer a tv in all bedrooms.

Amazing

We had an amazing experience! Perfect location. Close proximity to food, grocery stores, and most importantly the beach. The property manger was amazing with quick responses. The internet was out upon arrival (as much as we wished to not need it, my husband had college classes to still attend during our stay) and Bill promptly helped with getting a technician out. Very clean and plenty of space for our family of 6.

Great vacation

The house was furnished beautifully, the beds were comfortable and we enjoyed the screened in porch. The only downside was having to drive a few minutes to the beach and we really would have liked an outside shower because of all the sand but overall it was a great place yo stay. Very satisfied!

What a great stay!

This was our first time visiting Oak Island. We couldn't have picked a better place to stay at for our visit. The prior reviews about the house could not say enough positive things about the property and they WERE ALL TRUE. The house was very clean, well stocked in terms of cookware and dinnerware, and had all of the comforts of being home. One member of our household needed to work during a portion of our trip and the wifi was great. The host, Bill was easy to contact and was a pleasure to work with. I will be staying here the next time I visit OKI.
