Great location, just a short stroll to the beach and Oak Island Pier for fishing. Lots of tasty restaurants nearby. The house was ideal for my wife and I, with a well-equipped kitchen—wish I’d checked the cupboards before shopping! The side deck was awesome for breakfasts and evening drinks. Quiet neighborhood throughout our stay. ##### George L. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Hayden G.

But everything worked as it should AC worked great. Location is the best thing about this property 200 feet to the beach. Beds were decent. Would stay there again. ##### Hayden G.
