5BR Ocean/ICW Views | Pool | Putt-Putt | Golf Cart

"We enjoyed our long weekend in Oak Island- enjoyed the beautiful views of the ocean and the sound and felt the house was well appointed. We didn’t need to use the golf cart as the beach access is literally one block away!"

BEAUTIFUL Oak Island OCEAN VIEW home only steps to the BEACH and BOAT LAUNCH!

8/10 Good

"This was probably one of the best units I’ve ever rented in all my stays at Oak island. I will definitely be renting this house again. The owner actually did a walk through before we checked in to make sure it was up to her expectations. It’s almost like her cleaners do a deep clean every week. Absolutely amazing house."

"We really enjoyed our stay. The house is beautiful and very clean. The outside yard could use to be cleaned up. But you honestly can’t beat the views here. The beach is private so it’s got a bit of debris but it’s gorgeous!! The host was very easy to deal. We were slightly inconvenienced a few times for some minor repairs that were needed which she reacted very timely to fix. She was lovely. We’d definitely stay here again."
