The house is beautiful and clean. The owners are extremely friendly, and genuinely want you to have a comfortable stay. A little more attention to the small details will go a long way is making this a five-star property. Specifically, a little more attention to the kitchen small appliances, better quality knives (dull knives are very dangerous), and other small details. Provide toilet paper and paper towels.

Property was just as pictured and described. Beautiful home with lots of room and everything you could need. Host was absolutely fantastic and very responsive. We had an issue with the stove keeping temp and he responded right away and fixed it on the spot. We had some folks leave items behind and he reached out to find out if they belonged to us and agreed to ship them to us. Host is great and very honest!

Perfect extended family home

We rented this beautiful home for our family to stay in during our son’s wedding. It was a wonderful experience being able to have parents, grandparents, aunt, uncle, and cousins under the same roof. We had a lovely visit. It was large enough to accommodate us very comfortably with room to spare. Incredibly responsive hosts! Would highly recommend!

My fiance and I booked this house for a long weekend trip with all of our friends to celebrate our upcoming wedding and it was the perfect place for all of us! We had 22 people stay and everyone gave multiple compliments about how big and spacious every room was. The pictures truly do not even come close to showing how spacious every single room was. The pool and hot tub also made for a great time! The walkability to the beach access and great restaurants is truly amazing when traveling with such a big group. We even had a friend leave a shirt on accident and the owners are sending it back for free, even though we offered to pay for shipping. They truly are great communicators and made the whole check in and booking process simple. I would 100% book again!

About the host

Hosted by Larry Krynski

Host profile image
Rose and I are local to Oak Island, and happy to address any questions or concerns that may arise during your stay.

Why they chose this property

We moved to the area nearly 20 years ago, and we love Oak Island. We have been watching this home for a while as we already had two additional rentals on the Island (Wine and Roses- 6 bedrooms and Rhapsody in Blue - 7 bedrooms). We saw this beautiful property was available and couldn't pass it up.

What makes this property unique

As this home typically accommodates larger groups, we are happy to offer you role playing kits, upon request. This includes murder mysteries for the adults and other mysteries to solve for the younger group.
