Beautiful Stay

Property is extremely clean, comfortable and well decorated. Location is very close to the beach (2-3 minute walk) and about 15 minutes from Southport. Great location for a family vacation or even a weekend away in the off season.

Great place and host

Great location. 1 block from beach. Very clean. Plenty of parking. Quick response from host regarding small problem with loose door knobs. Well appointed kitchen. Be sure and turn on microwave fan before cooking to minimize smoke detector going off. Great location for biking and going to local stores. Food Lion and Publix within 10 minutes. Corner store within 3 minutes.

Perfect spot!

Went for Labor Day weekend with 2 families with kids 4-9. Perfect location with easy walk to the beach even for the littlest. House had all the accommodations we needed and plenty of space. We even got to see sea turtles hatch!

Quiet with a Great Location

We enjoyed our week here. It is a nice quiet spot in a great central location. It's right at a beach access, so hauling gear to the beach was a cinch. We for sure would stay here again.

Choose Sunshine!

We visit OKI several times every year. This rental was one of our favorites. “Sunshine” was a lovely home. Great location, very clean home, with all you need while on vacation. Such a short, easy walk to the beach. It’s technically 3rd row which is perfect to not have the busy/faster traffic of the main road. Jamie (host) was very responsive and kind. She made sure to ensure a nice stay. Choose “Sunshine”- you won’t be disappointed.

Really well done, Jamie!

We really enjoyed our time this well decorated home! I am a professional designer and stager and I would not change a thing with the design of this sweet home! It was clean, well stocked, and perfect for our group with 2 dogs and our adult children. The photos and description are accurate! Loved it!

Perfect beach getaway!

House was just as described. Just steps away from the beach, great location! House was clean, updated and fully stocked with all that you'd ever need while staying there. The house is a duplex, but you can't hear a single thing from the other house. Wonderful place for a vacation! My family loved this house and had a great week there.
