Spacious, Well-Equipped Home Perfect for Families
We had an amazing stay. The house offered plenty of sleeping options, making it perfect for a large group. There were many games for the younger kids to enjoy, and the upstairs nook provided a great space for the older kids to have their own area. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to prepare a holiday feast, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The house is conveniently located close to grocery stores, restaurants, and the beach. We didn’t try walking due to the cold weather, but in warmer months, I’m sure the walk wouldn’t be too bad. The variety of family games and activities kept everyone entertained. We’ll definitely consider returning in the future.

Perfect Stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We get together with our friends annually at a different location as we live in Richmond, VA and they live in Charlotte, NC. It was the perfect house with a fun bunk room for the four kiddos and spacious rooms for the four adults. The location was perfect… got to walk our dog by the Intercoastal Waterway to see sunrise then walk to the beach in less than a mile. Absolutely perfect location! Owners were great and provided great communication.

Perfect fit
The house was a perfect fit for our family gathering. There was lots of space for everyone. The loft space upstairs was perfect for the kids. We had good hot water when all 3 showers were running. The kitchen had a good variety of pans and appliances. The the keypad entrance was perfect, very easy to use, we didn’t have to worry about keys. Great location with Publix at the end of the street. Stop light one street over made it very easy to get on to the the main road. They seemed to have put a lot of thought in to the house.

The house was great! We traveled with 4 adults and 9 kids and there was plenty of space for all of us not to feel smooshed. The kids loved the bunk room, been bag chairs, ample beach toys, boogie boards, and that the donut and ice cream place was 2 blocks away. The adults loved the screened in porch for morning coffee, fully stocked kitchen, and everyone was thankful for the outdoor shower when coming home from the beach. The house is very close to 2 grocery stores and multiple restaurants as well. The owners were kind and quick to respond anytime I had a question! We would love to come back!

Thank you for allowing us to use your wonderful home :) It was perfect for what we needed, kids loved the bunk room and the bean bag chairs. Appreciated everything being labeled so easy to find things, and lots of hooks in upstairs bathroom. :). Driveway was also big enough for two pickup trucks and our Excursion 👍

My friends and I met on Oak Island for the Pledge The Pink 33.3 mile breast cancer awareness walk. Cindy and Mark’s home was perfectly located for this event and, was a comfortable fit for us. The screened porch was a relaxing area to share dinner, laughter and make more memories. Thank you for opening your home!

Lovely Stay at Oak Island
The house is just as described and is lovely. It has ample bedroom space and a wonderful screened porch that we really enjoyed. There is everything you could want in the kitchen and the garage is well stocked as well. It's a nice quiet street and the kids had a great time riding the bikes provided. There was an issue with the dryer while we were there but they went over and above to quickly resolve the issue.

Great spot for large families!
We loved staying at this property! It was ideal for a week at the beach with my sister's family, my family, and my mom. The main bedrooms were on the first floor, so the teenager and college students had their own space upstairs.(That also meant that my mom didn't have to climb the stairs to get to her room, the kitchen, etc.) The bunk beds were ideal for them. The garage had a lot of items that were so convenient. We didn't use anything except the fridge and the storage area, but it was nice to have all the bikes, beach toys, chairs, corn hole game, etc. there just in case. The upstairs had so many board games and even books to choose from. The kitchen was well-appointed and had lots of spices, utensils, pots/pans, dishes, etc. We didn't need anything. Really, the house had everything possible to make the house comfortable. Our favorite spot was the screened-in porch. We sat out there most of the time enjoying the weather and each others' company. The beach is not within walking distance, but the owner does not hide this fact. We drove down every day, but beware: Oak Island is charging to park at the beach accesses now. It is $20/day or $80/week. That was something new and frustrating about the area. Also, we had to take two cars to the beach so all of us could be together, and finding an access with two available spots wasn't always easy. No fault of the owners AT ALL, but it's just something to think about and plan for. Great trip and property overall! Thanks again!

This was our first family vacation with all of our children after our we marriage. Enough bedrooms, and enough space to make sure everyone had their own privacy, but yet we’re easily able to be part of the family unit. Had a great time we will be back.
