What a lovely house. It was perfect for our mixed age group and very comfortable to relax in. The sun room was super for late evening to benefit from the breezes after a warm day. The garden was great for our dogs. Very convenient and the outside shower to wash the sand from their fur was fantastic. Location was marvelous. Equally good for the beach and for restaurants, grocery stores and attractions. We all thoroughly enjoyed our vacation and highly recommend the house .

Very clean, beautiful, nice layout! Very nice furniture, comfortable beds, nice sheets and other linens washed and packaged off site. Completely fenced yard and dog friendly. Only small downside was the beautiful, bright sunroom isn’t temperature controlled so it’s really too hot to enjoy that nice space in the heat of the summer. Yes you can open the windows and there is one ceiling fan which I’m sure is just lovely in the fall, but not cool enough for NC summers.

We have stayed in a number of rentals on Oak Island and this is our favorite one. It was perfect for the two of us and our two dogs. Proximity to the beach was ideal and the overall decor and feel of the property was top notch. It’s not the biggest place, but it didn’t feel cramped and the spaces, both indoor and outdoor are incredibly usable. And it’s just a few minutes drive to all of the restaurants on Oak Island. What a fantastic place!

This home was so well stocked. The owners literally thought of everything. I was amazed at all the detail they have put into ensuring this could truly serve as a home away from home. The home is perfect for anyone traveling with dogs. It was decorated beautifully, as well.

Perfect Dog Friendly Beach House

This home is set up perfectly for a home away from home with your pups. Us and our pups felt right at home. The backyard and sun room were our favorites!
