Walk to the beach!
A great location,,, plenty of room for all
Larger than the pictures
Very pleased will stay here again
Lovely little home, great location!
Stayed last week with friends. First time to Oak island. The home is very nice and well appointed. Beds were a little soft (for our liking) but comfy! Less than four blocks to the beach. Relaxing, comfortable and lovely home. Only complaints: no paper products or trash bags were available. I e mailed the owner to ask if we needed to bring them but he never replied. Luckily we decided to bring our own toilet paper! And the showers were VERY slippery. We just went to Walmart and bought some shower mats!
Lots of great restaurants with excellent seafood nearby! We really had a great time!
Wonderful beach stay!
We rented John's Crab Shack for three months to escape winter back home. While we didn't get to stay the whole term (due to personal reasons), we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house is very comfortable and well equipped with lots of room to spread out. The photos don't do it justice. We loved the front porch, the back deck, and the fenced yard was absolute heaven with two dogs. The neighborhood was nice and quiet. Walking to the beach was a quick and easy 5 minutes. We would glady stay here again!
Relaxing and comfortable!!
Once we got to the house everything was convienient and the neighborhood was adorable and quiet!!
Our first trip to Oak Island
The house was a great size for our group. We had 5 adults, 1 child and a couple of dogs. The house and yard were perfect for all. We were a close walk to the beach and for those times when we had a lot to bring we drove and the parking was fine too. The house could have accommodated more people so the space was awesome! The house was well kept and clean. The stocked kitchen was awesome! We had never been to Oak Island and we would definitely go back and would definitely stay there again.

Additional information about rental rates
| Refundable damage deposit | $200 |
| Cleaning fee | $105 |
| Pet Fee | $100 |
| Tax Rate | 12.0% |
Our pet fee is based on length of stay. The default is set to $100 for weekly rentals. It is $50.00 for two nights, $75.00 for 3-4 nights and $100 for 5 to 7 nights. If more than one week the fee maybe more. Make sure I reset your quote if you are only staying a few nights or more than one week. We love being pet friendly as we our dog lovers and hate to leave our companions behind; especially when we have to pay where they do not want to be. You may bring up to 3 dogs. We do not allow cats because of allergies. The cleaning fee is based from 2-7 nights and maybe more beyond one week. Generally, each additional week will be additional $100 except for monthly rentals which will be quoted pending on the length of time and season.
* Approximate monthly rate. Actual rate will depend on the days of the month you stay.
