About this property

Sun, Sand & Coastal Comfort


“A Wave from It All” is a cozy, relaxing coastal retreat tucked away on a quiet street on the west side of Oak Island—just a 15-minute walk (½ mile) to the beach. Designed with comfort and family time in mind, this charming home is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy island life.

This kid-friendly home includes a high chair and portable crib for your convenience. (Parents of young children are kindly asked to childproof the home upon arrival based on their child’s needs.)

The home features three comfortable bedrooms, including a king-size bed in the primary suite and queen beds in both the second and third bedrooms, sleeping up to six guests comfortably. We provide all linens and towels, and upon arrival your beds will be made with premium bedding, so you can start relaxing right away.

You’ll find two full bathrooms, along with a private outdoor shower—perfect after a day at the beach. The fully stocked kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals, including a dual coffee maker that accommodates both K-cups and full pots.

The family room is set up for connection and relaxation, featuring a 55” Smart TV, DVD player with 30+ movies, board games, and books—something for everyone to enjoy.

Outside, there are several inviting spaces to relax:
• A front porch with rocking chairs
• A screened-in back porch with comfortable seating and soft lighting
• A solid wood porch swing in the backyard

Fire up the gas grill on the back deck (utensils provided), and take advantage of the guest storage closet, stocked with beach chairs, boogie boards, sand toys, fishing poles, and coolers. We also provide three adult bikes, making it easy and fun to explore the island.

Parking is easy with a private driveway, plus additional space for a boat trailer or golf cart. Several local companies offer golf cart rentals with delivery directly to the home.

Whether you’re a family of six, a couple seeking a peaceful getaway, or visiting to fish, golf, shop, or simply relax, A Wave from It All offers comfort, convenience, and the perfect setting for your Oak Island escape. We would love to host you and your family!

About the host

Hosted by Kevin and Mandy Barker

Host profile image
We are the Barkers from Welcome, North Carolina. In 2020, we fulfilled a lifelong dream by purchasing this home on Oak Island. The island has always provided us with inspiration, relaxation, and a deep sense of peace.

We chose to open our home to guests in the hope that others can experience the same joy, comfort, and tranquility that Oak Island has given to our family.

Why they chose this property

This cozy cottage, tucked away on a quiet street between the Intracoastal Waterway and the beach, truly fulfills our desire to get away from it all. As we both work in high-pressure careers, we were drawn to the sense of calm and balance this home provides. From the moment we arrived, we felt a peace here that is hard to find elsewhere—and that feeling is exactly what made this property so special to us.

What makes this property unique

From the amazing sunsets at the point, to the fishing from piers, Oak island and it’s non -commercial atmosphere provide inner peace and make family vacations memorable. Numerous mom/pop restaurants , Monday’s farmers market , low-key shopping , and boiled peanuts can’t be beat !
