Amazing beach house only a short walk from the ocean! A great location at a great North Carolina beach! The neighborhood is charming and quiet and the neighbors are friendly. The beach is gorgeous and just a straight walk or drive down the road. We can hear the ocean waves at night. Generous front porch with rocking chairs and table. Large master bedroom with gorgeous bath. Coffee ready to go, a library, cable TV in living room. Please note that there is a main road to cross - E. Oak Island Dr. - to get to the beach. It gets busy during rush hour and high season. It’s better to take a right there and then a left on 73rd St. to avoid waiting. Parents will need to accompany children if walking.

We had a wonderful time at Oak Island and appreciated being able to stay in this home. We had plenty of space, and it was a short walk to the beautiful wide beach!
Parking was extremely handy, right at the front door. We were very satisfied with the cleanliness and set up of the home. We always enjoy the shopping on Oak Island, there are hidden treasures throughout the island. Our host was available for questions and made us feel welcome.

Thanks Teresa! So glad you all had a great time. Oak Island is such a great place to be to get away from all the hustle normal life.
Overall experience. Host was responsive, location suited our purpose, and the house was very nice. We also found all the necessary utensils, etc., that we needed.
The cleaners were running late and we had to wait out in the driveway with our groceries for them to finish cleaning while watching them smoke. They don’t appear real professional but the place was clean. We did a lot of cooking and the place could use some updates. The stove was all off and would get really hot or not hot enough. We also used the bbq grill which was tiny and also on its last leg. The children seemed to have some issues in the hall bath with trying to get the water turned off.
This was our 2nd year staying here and we loved it just as much as the first. Such a convenient location to everything and with a feeling of home. Can't wait until next time...
Fantastic location with easy access to all the restaurants nearby and the beach! Host was courteous and easy to get a hold of with any questions and issues. Will stay again when in the area!
This was a very nice and cozy rental in a great location not far from the beach. Wanderful place to relax after a full day on the beach with the kids and family. I will keep this little gem in my mind for future stays.
We loved our stay in this house! It was very clean and comfortable. This location is a short drive to the beach, grocery store, restaurants, etc. The neighborhood is quiet. I loved that they had beach chairs we could use. We also enjoyed sitting in the backyard by the firepit. The owner was quick to respond to our messages. It felt like a home away from home. We will definitely be booking here again.
The house suited our needs well for the weekend. The home was clean and well stocked. This time of year the area is quiet so easy to enjoy the area.

About the host
Hosted by Mike Hause
We love to host people and we love the beach! We have always taken our kids on beach vacations and Oak Island is one we've kept coming back to. It's a place where we can recharge from our very busy lives. It's amazing what a day on the beach can do for one's perspectives on just about everything. That's why we always come back to the beauty, the surf and sunshine. We hope you enjoy your experience as much as we have.
Why they chose this property
It's new, clean, large for a family, fairly inexpensive and right near the beach. Get your groceries from the Food Lion (don't worry about bringing a cooler full of stuff from home!). Great seafood at the local restaurants or buy some from the local fish outlet and cook it on the outdoor grill in the back yard. Close to the beach enough to take a short walk. See the turtles hatch in August!
What makes this property unique
We are a walk to the beach and a walk to the waterway. The beach is visible from the road and a great location (74th st Access area) with parking. We throw our chairs in the truck or car and in 3 blocks we are there. If you bring a boat just take it down to the public landing on 55th St and head out for a spin or sail on the waterway or even out to the ocean. Rentals are everywhere. Great restaurants nearby.
Get your own food from Food Lion less than a mile down the road! Bring your bikes - super place for a morning ride and no traffic. Mornings on the porch are delightful - bring your coffee and a good book. Visit Southport town in the evening - beautiful quaint old town with great restaurants and seafood - try Provisions or theFrying Pan for some great crab cakes!
Want to do some skydiving? Just a couple of miles up the road there's a small airport that specializes in them.
