We enjoyed our stay—the house was comfortable and worked for our needs. My parents needed a one-level property and we needed a pet friendly option. The kitchen was well equipped and there were extra touches like a basket of suntan lotion to share. The screened in porch was a nice space to relax in as well. Thanks!

Thank you, Laura! We're so glad the home provided cozy comfort for your family and met your needs for a one-level, pet-friendly space. It's great to hear that you appreciated the well-equipped kitchen and thoughtful extras like the sunscreen basket. We’re happy you enjoyed the screened-in porch for some relaxing moments too. Hope to welcome you back soon!
This property is perfect for long or short term stays. Extremely clean and the beds were comfortable. Very nicely updated appliances and other kitchen equipment. The screened in porch and the grill area were used everyday. Close to the beach and other amenities of Oak Island. Owner is very responsive and though we had no major issues, when we asked a question got a prompt response. It was our first time to Oak Island and we will be back and chose this delightful home to stay. Our 2 Westies had enough room to romp and they enjoyed the stay as well.

Thank you for the great review, Linda! We’re happy to hear that the property was perfect for your stay and that you found it extremely clean and comfortable. Glad you enjoyed the updated appliances, the screened-in porch, and the grill area. We’re also pleased that our responsiveness added to your positive experience. We look forward to welcoming you back to Oak Island!
EVERYTHING we needed!We really enjoyed our stay at the Shark Shack. We were most impressed with all the extras they supplied such as the grills, bikes and beach accessories --just everything you could think of was available. The outdoor porch and shower are a nice feature. The house was super clean and decorated very nicely, with a fully equipped kitchen. The only issue we had was the water was cut off to the outdoor shower and we couldn't find the code to the lock where the bikes and beach accessories are stored, but the property manager took care of this very promptly. The location relative to the beach is not bad, especially with bikes but a wagon is also available if you want to walk (less than a mile).
