Great place. I would definitely stay there again. A couple of minor upgrades would make it much better though. 1st fix the shower head in master bathroom. Upgrade the furniture. Supply more necessities such as more trash bags and a bigger trash can. If you are going to get the cheapest paper towels and toilet paper please supply more. Add televisions in each bedroom. Upgrade the cushions on the screened in porch couch. With all that being said we loved our stay there. Very convenient to beach access. Screened in porch was very nice to sit and enjoy the weather. Washer and dryer were new and easy to use. The grill came in handy several nights. The reviews that mentions the neighbor are true. He likes to listen to his music kinda loudly. Although he was very nice and considerate. He made it a point to speak with us and tell us if he was too loud to let him know. Good thing is he played good classic rock music

The trifecta!

The price, location and vibe (teenagers added that) made for the perfect stay. The proximity to the beach was fantastic! We struggled with the hot water supply a bit, but would absolutely rent again!

Great Home to stay at

My family has vacationed on OKI for generations, and this was a first time staying this close to the Old Bridge. We thoroughly enjoyed the house and found it easy to get to the beach as it is just across the street. We would recommend this home to our other family members, friends, and neighbors.

Great spot in well loved home

So first, we went down to this property right after a megastore had passed through washing out roads and homes in the area. The property owner called us and let us know that the property was fine and gave suggestions for making the most out of our trip down and gave us suggestions for how to get onto the island and enjoy ourselves which was greatly appreciated. When we got down there we had an issue that the property owner quickly helped us through. Overall, we had a short but great time at the property. I would suggest this home to others who want to stay at oak island!

Great Beach Cottage

This was a comfortable stay for our family (me, spouse, two teens, and our dog). There was plenty of room, beds were comfortable, yard was spacious, and it was a short walk to the beach. We hope to be staying again soon.

Worked but wasn’t perfect

The lock box for the key is in an awkward spot where we had to remove some spider webs to access. More bugs in the house: master bedroom and bunk bed room had some dead bugs and spiders. Also the bunk bed room had a funky smell to it. Like sweaty smell.. house needed some tlc for sure but nothing surprising. Flooring is buckling up in the bathroom and there was a piece missing from one of the doors between a bedroom and bathroom so we hung a towel over it for privacy. all that being said, it suited what we needed it for just had to debug it a bit first and learn some of the quirks . I feel like it was about as expected for an affordable cabin/house rental.

Great place but loud

This place is so close to the beach! It’s great for a girls trip. Two things one which the owner cannot help is the guy that lives next to this place has a projector screen and watches movies or music until 3:30 a.m. that is blaring!! If you had small kids it would be very hard for them to sleep. Secondly, it’s dog friendly, but no pets are allowed on furniture in case you have dogs that are not crate trained or used to being on furniture. Also when we first got there it smelled like muggy dogs! But overall it is cute close to the beach and one we opened it up the smell improved! We would go back esp if the neighbor was not there!!

We got hit with a tropical storm but enjoyed relaxing in the house & going to nearby restaurants. When the sun came out, it was a short walk to the beach & it was fantastic. The neighborhood is quiet, friendly, and great for running & walking the dog.
