The house was spacious and the location was great! It stayed cooler than most houses we’ve rented in the area which was a huge plus. The 2nd bathroom wasn’t the best, as it was very small and you had to go through a bedroom to use it and the water hose for rinsing off after leaving the beach was in need of replacing. Otherwise, our group thoroughly enjoyed the house.

This home has a fantastic beachfront location with private beach access which was great for our family with young children. You cannot beat the views or the beach access. However, for an almost 5,000 weekly summer rental, the interior fell short of expectations. The home is showing significant wear and is in serious need of a deep clean. Our primary issue, which was not disclosed in the listing or the VRBO photograph, was the master bedroom (queen bed) having extensive, visible water damage. The walls are heavily warped, stained, buckling, and splitting at the seams. For fear of not knowing what was the cause, we chose not to use this room. Obviously, not ideal for our family of 5 adults and 3 children.The carpets are old and stained (just needs care), similar to the couch stains which we just kept covered with a blanket. Drains were slow but host had drano delivered to us. Windows hadn’t been cleaned - we bought some windex and did our own cleaning to see the beach. Future guests should be aware of the moisture issues before booking. The home is a great space and we loved the location, but, it requires better upkeep to match the price tag.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The reason for the 4-stars was due to a slight issue we had when we arrived, we were unable to access the keyless entry with the provided code. Once we contacted the owners, they were able to open it up the remotely.Housekeeping service was great and the house itself was awesome. A few short steps and you are right on the beach. There is plenty of furniture on the outside deck, for those who prefer to stay closer to the house.Shopping and restaurants just minutes away!Highly recommend.

House is nice but in need of maintenance and updating. Outside light needed on the stair case going down to parking, my daughter fell down the steps and hurt herself in the dark. Upstairs windows leak when it is raining hard, also got rain dripping from ceiling in kitchen, possibly from the upstairs window. Loved from the deck and the closeness to the beach, much easier access for senior citizens. Had constant issues with the internet while we were there, was off more than on.

About the host

Hosted by Andrew Kirk and Shelby Kirk

Host profile image

We are a family of four and we love sharing our home.

Why they chose this property

Oak Island is the perfect location. A family friendly beach, ever over-crowded. Lots of great restaurants and fish markets. There is plenty to do on the island and in the neighboring towns (like Southport or even get to the Outlets at North Myrtle Beach in under an hour).

What makes this property unique

I've never been in a beach house with a view like this one! It's unobstructed! Most beach houses sit on top of each other, ours is on an oversized piece of property. Which gives you more space, more privacy and a much bigger view! PLUS, you have extra parking and you can see the ocean from every room in the house. It "Shore is Beautiful" here!
