Great vacation week.

Enjoyed our stay very much. One of the few vacation homes we have used where everything works. The location is fantastic. Every night the teenage boys were at the local basketball court for pickup games and the girls were at the ice cream shops. We had short drives to many golf courses and the access to the beach was great. Good time had by all.

Great location and space.

We loved being right at the beach. So spacious and the older crew enjoyed the elevator (saved the knees) haha. Next time we will wait until later in the year to visit, it’s still very breezy and cool in April.

Beautiful OIB home

We love this house! We’ve been going to OIB for 10+ yrs now and need a 5 bedroom home, which can be hard to find. This house is clean and spacious. All the families loved the layout. I’m so glad we found Barefoot at the Beach! It’s perfect for all ages and the location is everything. We’ll definitely be staying there again in 2025.

Ocean Isle vacay 2024

Our first visit to Ocean Isle! We thought beach and location was great but we really hit the jackpot with this property! It was perfectly laid out to accommodate our large 3 generation group. Super convenient to the beach. Baby and beach gear most appreciated. Hosts were most attentive we have ever had and we have stayed at plenty of VRBO's. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks for helping us create great memories!

About the host

Hosted by Sarah and Dave Morris

Host profile image
Dave and Sarah Morris live in the Charlotte area, where they moved to from Western NY over 10 years ago. They have 3 young children and enjoy traveling and vacationing at the beach.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Ocean Isle Beach when we first visited and knew we would love to own a home here. We are excited to share our home with our guests and hope they love OIB as much as we do. We love that Myrtle Beach is a short drive away and we can experience all that area has to offer, while enjoying the quieter, family-friendly beaches of OIB.

What makes this property unique

The views from this home immediately drew us in. The top observation deck has a view of the ocean and beach that we think is one of the best views in OIB. It is the perfect spot to start or end your day.
