Great house, plenty of room for us and our family that came into town. Kitchen was perfect for preparing big meals and nice big dining area to eat as a family. Best water pressure HANDS DOWN, on OKI! Great beach access, and the kids loved the hammocks hanging downstairs. The back porch was PERFECT for hanging out in the evening, and the layout deck was great for star gazing at night!

Cozy beach house with a killer view

We enjoyed staying at "The Boys of Summer" beach house. The location can't be beat. It's steps from the beach, close to grocery stores, restaurants, and coffee shops. We enjoyed visiting the local lighthouse and nearby town of Southport too. The house was comfortable and perfect for our first family vacation with our dog. If you're looking to relax and just enjoy the beach this rental is worth checking out.

Wonderful Vacation Home

The house was wonderful for our stay and the fenced in yard was perfect for our pups! The house was clean and stocked for our needs and the AC worked great. The renovated showers were excellent after a day of soaking in the sun at the beach. Beach access was an ease and the rocking chairs made the sunrises and sunsets very enjoyable. Mike and Chris were very responsive - we look forward to our next stay!
