A happy place

Perfect place for our dog. With leather furniture, rugless floors and easy access to the fenced backyard, we all could enjoy our stay. We felt right at home.

About the host

Hosted by Emily Poole

Originally from just north of Charlotte NC, we moved to Oak Island, three years ago because this is truly our happy place! We love everything about the beach from the sand, to the salt water, and all everything in between. We love fishing, swimming and most water activities. We decided to manage our very own VRBO property to provide guests with the vacation experience we always looked for when traveling with our pups.

Why they chose this property

NE 34th street is convenient to all Oak Island has to offer while still providing privacy. Enjoy a day at the beach followed by time with your dogs in our private fenced in back yard.
