Awesome Family Time
Relaxing and quiet time. Beautiful amenities, comfortable, and easy access to the beach, Southport, and even Wilmington and Myrtle Beach. We traveled with our senior dog and our parents drove in with their dog. Everyone was relaxed and had an awesome visit. This is our second stay here & we will definitely be back!!

Great Pup Friendly Stay
We loved the place. Beautifully decorated. Just as advertised and Sue has it well stocked with pet essentials (bowls, leashes, etc) The tall fenced backyard was great for our larger dogs. She also has cornhole and beach stuff for your pleasure. Great location, close to everything and not far from the beach. We strongly recommend Sue's place.

We will always stay here!
Sue's home is just perfect. It's in the exact right location, it's quiet and peaceful, has all the amenities you could ever need, and is perfect for your pups! The backyard is so nicely fenced and feels so safe and secure for your furry kids. Myself and my pups have stayed here before and we will continue to return as long as She and her pup Stanley will allow us! 😊 Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Fall Break in OKI
We loved our stay at this beautiful home. It was super clean and perfectly equipped with everything we needed. We loved having the fenced in backyard for our dogs. The owner was really great to work with - very accommodating and responsive. We can’t wait to go back and stay at this gem!

About the host

Hosted by Sue Messina

Host profile image
Recently retired from 30+ years with the Federal Government, I moved to coastal North Carolina from the DC area for it's great weather, friendly people, and beautiful beaches. I chose Oak Island to buy a vacation rental property because of its family and dog-friendly beaches, close proximity to Wilmington and Southport, and great area attractions. I hope you enjoy your vacation at my property and fall in love with the Oak Island like I have.
