About this property
Become an AQUAHOLIC in this oceanfront, dog friendly home on Oak Island!
Aquaholic's oceanfront LOCATION on Oak Island, NC, is the perfect spot to enjoy a coastal vacation. With its white, sandy beaches and beautiful sunsets, it is no surprise that Oak Island was voted one of America’s top 10 family/dog-friendly beaches. ENJOY panoramic ocean views from this amazingly appointed oceanfront home on an over sized lot located on the desirable West End of the Island. This rare oceanfront location sits neatly between the waters of the Atlantic ocean and the Montgomery Slough Sound. Take your choice - a swim in the ocean or drop the kayak in the slough for some backside water fun. An exclusive part of Oak Island with hardly anyone to share it with!
Sit on the expansive AQUAHOLIC decks while you renew and relax, enjoying picture perfect ocean views, stunning sunsets, and tranquil breezes. Watch boats cruise by and dolphins at play. The bedrooms in this home boast stunning ocean AND marsh views.
THE SPACE consists of 2500 sq. feet of living area and utilizes an OPEN floor plan. The house is tastefully decorated with a soothing, neutral palette. There are 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, making this house very comfortable for 15 guests. The main living area includes an updated kitchen with new cabinets and flooring, stainless appliances, solid surface counters, a dining area and a large living room. A wall of windows let in lots of natural light as well as breathtaking ocean views. Updates include a metal roof, siding, and gourmet kitchen with every gadget you could ever need to cook your fresh catch.
What We’re Doing for your SAFETY:
Practicing Social Distancing with Keyless Entry – A unique keyless entry code provides the ability to go directly to the vacation rental without the need for person-to-person contact.
Increasing the Rigor of Cleaning Procedures – To provide clean and safe accommodations, following CDC recommendations, we are increasing the rigor of cleaning and disinfecting using EPA-registered household disinfectants. As such, early check-ins and late check-outs are suspended indefinitely. Should you arrive early, please plan to go to the beach or find another activity that keeps you away from the house so the cleaning crew can properly disinfect before your stay. The cleaners ask that you not leave your belongings in the house, or congregate by the pool prior to check in.
PROPERTY DETAILS SLEEPS 15. First floor: (bedrooms #1 & #2) TWO master suites that boast stunning ocean AND marsh views, each with private bathrooms. Upstairs, master suite (#3) with private bath, and bedroom #4 with 2 queen beds and full bath. Also on the second floor, you’ll enjoy one large (#5) bunk room for the kids with custom made twin beds (3) and twin trundles (2). All three upstairs bedrooms offer water views from every angle.
THE AMENITIES are many, beginning with covered parking and lighting. You will also have access to a 12'6" x 26’ private pool and outdoor shower (the pool can be heated for an additional fee). Relax after dinner in the 7 person HOT TUB which sits right on the oceanfront deck overlooking the water. Smart TVs are in ALL FIVE BEDROOMS and the living room. A portable crib and high chair are available for your use. All Aquaholic beach rentals include bed and bath linens for all stays. There will be some beach chairs and boogie boards for your use. Please plan to BRING YOUR OWN beach/pool towels.
WALK to the Blue Point Marina to launch your boat/kayak or paddle board. You will love all that OKI has to offer; miles of sandy dog-friendly beaches, fishing piers, Town parks, recreation center, tennis courts, golf courses, shopping, restaurants and more - there is truly something for everyone.
HOUSEKEEPING - AQUAHOLIC is owned and managed by its owners, and is cared for by the same housekeepers every week. The home is cleaned for your arrival every Saturday morning throughout the summer. An island resident/handyman is available for maintenance issues when guests are in residence.
PET POLICY We love our pets and want to share our home with you and yours. We welcome up to two, well behaved dogs at AQUAHOLIC. We are committed to a CLEAN and PEST FREE environment. Monthly maintenance and pest control services are provided as well as DEEP CLEANING between renters. Please allow us to keep AQUAHOLIC PET FRIENDLY by respecting our policies and pre-treating your pet at home for fleas/ticks. The PET FEE is $90 for the first dog and an additional $50 for a second dog.
There are 4 pet friendly restaurants in Oak Island that welcome dogs at their outdoor tables (Bob’s Dogs, Kai Joe’s, Shagger Jack’s and The Lazy Turtle).
Dogs that are leashed are permitted year round on Oak Island beaches. Dogs are allowed off their leash from October 16 until March 15 from 6:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m. in locations marked by beach access signs.

About the host
Hosted by Patrick and Jacki Poovey
Patrick, Jacki, Wes and Kathleen live in Cary, NC full time, but dream about retiring at the beach. Jen and Stephen live in Richmond, VA. Between the three families, we have 10 kids and 4 dogs!
Why they chose this property
WALK to the Blue Point Marina to launch your boat/kayak or paddle board. You will love all that OKI has to offer; miles of sandy dog-friendly beaches, fishing piers, Town parks, recreation center, tennis courts, golf courses, shopping, restaurants and more - there is truly something for everyone. Aquaholic is located on the quiet end of Oak Island near the Lockwood Folly Inlet that divides Holden Beach. Take your kayak to "the Mailbox" and leave an inspiring message to folks who happen upon it. If you are looking for more excitement, you can take the Southport ferry to Fort Fisher and spend the day at the aquarium or exploring the historic site. July 4th is always an exciting time with vendor fairs, parades and fireworks shows.
What makes this property unique
Each bedroom suite has its own private bathroom which can be closed off to the rest of the house by a hallway door. The views are spectacular out the north and south sides. The sound side offers gorgeous sunsets and dolphins make a daily appearance on the ocean side. This home has been lovingly maintained and our priority is making your stay one of comfort and relaxation.
The bunk room features five sleeping spots for kids or adults and overlooks the beautiful Montgomery Slough waterway.
