Off season paradise

This is a duplex which I somehow missed when booking, but thankfully it was very peaceful as we had no neighbors. The house was charming, a perfect location and a wonderful view. I would definitely stay here again

Anniversary Beach Trip

Nice beach front property with plenty of room for a small family, close to a lot of things. Enjoyed the sunrises on the deck.

Needs some extra updating

Location was great. House was clean but had a musky smell especially in bedrooms. Mattresses and pillows need replacing. The water was not on at fish cleaning area and was supposed to per VRBO.

Great location with beautiful views

Nice cottage with beautiful views. Rain shower is great. We saw dolphins not far from the shore that were jumping out of the water and putting on a show for us!

Great Location

We loved our stay at this property. Our only problem was that we could never get the televisions in the bedrooms to connect to the WiFi even after asking for help from host, basically were dismissed and told to try again. Believe me we tried over and over with no luck. Luckily we had an iPad that connected easily to WiFi and used it to watch movies at bedtime.

Lovely View, be aware it’s a duplex

The property is in a beautiful location. Unfortunately, we did not realize it was a duplex and upon arrival we had to listen to a young child pound away as she ran through the attached unit. The following night, it was peaceful however, at 1:45 am the next round of guests checked in and woke us as they arrived and banged around until after 2 am. They also decided to wander over to our side of the deck which we found to be intrusive. If it weren’t for the noisy neighbors, I would have given this property 5 stars all the way. Unfortunately, the thin walls and noisy guests put a damper on our experience.

Location just can't be beat!

The location of this house was perfect, and the calm views and sounds from the covered porch just can't be beat! The weather was a little wet and cool, but the covered deck, overlooking the beach allowed us to enjoy the settling in comfort. There was a slight snafu with the linens being delivered to the wrong "side" of the house, but it was quickly cleared up by the property management company, even at 8 pm the night before Thanksgiving. The owner was also quick with replies, and all communication was great! The house itself is very comfortable. There were plenty of pillows and blankets, and the mattresses were quite comfy. Our only "complaint" is that the bathroom showers could use a power cleaning, as there is grunge around the bottoms of both doors. All in all it was a fantastic place to stay, and we would stay here again, and recommend it to anyone.

Weekend Trip with Kids - Mostly good

My wife and I and Kids under 9 spent the weekend here. We were able to check in at 3 which was fantastic. The house itself was clean. View was great and convenience of beach access was a huge plus. House has a great Kureg machine (bring filters). We could hear the people at times in the duplex on the other side of the wall. Sliding glass window was dirty on outside and did not function easily. No plastic cups or bowls for kids in kitchen. How water ran out fairly quickly. Not sure if this unit has its own tank or shares with duplex unit. Overall convenient to neighboring restaurant and fishing pier. Would consider staying here again.

Great location, needs a deep clean.

The location's flat out excellent. It's a great little place right on the beach, and has the essentials for a nice stay. Location couldn't be better, and the amenities met our needs well (kitchen stock, AC, wifi, etc). However, it's just not cleaned well at all. The bathroom showers are pretty dirty, and the doors/windows are very dirty. We have twin 18 month olds, and had to keep them away from a ton of surfaces due to grime. One of the bedrooms also doesn't have blinds - just a thin blanket thrown up over the window, so you're getting sun right in that window first thing. With a serious deep-clean (or even just a thoughtful clean), it'd have been a much better stay. As it is, we didn't get much rest or enjoyment out of the stay.

Disappointing Stay

As usual photos sell a property. However, in our case the reality didn’t match our expectations which were largely based on on-line photos. The beach proximity is great. The beach itself is perfect. We were shocked to find the place was a two units with other guests too close. The front door was so rusted and loose that we didn’t think we would even get inside. The entire property seemed old and really in need of an update, in our opinion. We love Oak Island but next time we will rent a newer place that is pet friendly further away from the ocean and rent a golf cart to get to the beach. I must say the owner communicated perfectly and gave us great places to eat on and off the island. The cons out-number the pros so we would not stay there again

Water leaks and construction next door

CHeck in process was rough, we arrived by 3 pm after a long drive and a very hot day. We had to wait 2 hours before we got the key. Upon arriving, we see there is a bad leak in the kitchen sink. Wet pads were placed there so someone already knew of the leak. The plumber came and said this is a major issue and he would return the next day to fix it. And oh, he is not a morning person so it would be mid day. Meanwhile, there is major construction next door, workers cussing at each other, loud noises

Great getaway

Loved the house and location. Didn’t read the description well and didn’t realize it was a duplex but that was my fault for not reading the online description. Having neighbors didn’t bother us at all. My kids and I have always wanted to rent a house right on the beach and the location and price of this home made it possible!! We had a few hiccups that were of no fault to the house or host. The management company was horrible at communicating and the issues they needed to resolve did not happen in a timely manner or return my phone calls. Communication with the host was amazing and he made it right. He was made aware of all the issues also and was very quick to respond. Would definitely stay here again!! Cute little home!! And perfect for the amount of people we had in our party. Especially once we got to use the second bathroom!! lol thank you!

Good sea side view

The overall experience was good. Except for the property being very old and could have better maintenance. There was nail on the outside patio which was popping out and my I tripped on it while walking out to the steps for go to the beach. Otherwise the caretaker was very responsive with all the questions.

Snow trip

We were lucky enough to be there for the artic blast and saw snow on the beach. Since roads became impassable , we were allowed a free night, which was nice.. except the pipes froze and we had no water.. to wash, cook, flush or clean. Trying to get home today ….would have wished for longer , a beautiful,comfortable place to relax, but best with water!

Not a House! Duplex with thin walls!

My husband and I were looking for a location where we could have a quiet, private Christmas. This location was advertised as a house. It is not. It is a duplex so the back porch is shared. Instead of having the privacy we wanted, we ended up having coffee with strangers on Christmas morning. The beds were very comfortable. The view was great, but had we known this was a duplex, We would not have stayed here.. we could hear muffled conversations the whole time we were in our side of the duplex. If noise doesn’t bother you, this is a nice place.

Can't beat the view!

The view from the deck is exactky what we wanted. The home was nice but seemed the cleaners stayed home between the last stay and ours. The keys from the previous guests were still on the counter so other than the linens people, nobody checked the status before we arrived. We didnt bother calling the PM to report this because we didnt want any intrusion during our stay. The place was tidy but not clean.

Nice Enough in a great location

Overall the house was in good working order but the dusty and musty air made us all feel congested. There is visible interior damage to the walls in the living area. The linens provided by the property manager were very thin; I would have brought my own had I known it was a rental linen package. It wasn't clear when the quilts were last cleaned but the property manager did tell us they had been cleaned recently. Beach access was great.

Repairs and Infestation

Multiple repairs were needed. Arrived on Saturday communicated with rental agency via voicemail at least twice. No response from Sat to Mon. I had to contact them again and sent pictures. Two were repairs that impacted the kitchen. We had ant infestation and roaches.

Perfect View

Despite the weather (awaiting arrival of T.S. Debby), the view of the ocean from the deck was mesmerizing. I spent most of the days content to watch the watch the weather and the surfers catching the large waves from the comfortable chairs on the deck, out of the sun but enjoying the breeze and incredible views. Upon arrival, I reported several minor issues to property management (about 10), which they addressed the first business day. None of the issues materially impacted our enjoyment of the property. For cleanliness, I gave 4 stars because it was mostly clean, except for considerable sand in the sofa when we arrived. They gave it a good clean.
