Great week at OIB!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at happy hours! The house is very conveniently located in the center of the town. We loved having a swimming pool and dock access, which we used for a rental boat from OIFC. The house is perfect for a large family with kids as there are multiple bunk bed rooms.

Great family vacation

This house is spacious and has something for everyone. Great location - walk to the beach in just a few minutes, easily walk to putt-putt, shops and restaurants. Pool on the property is awesome. Awesome sunset views from the top level and listen to the Friday concerts right from the outdoor bar. Thanks for helping us make great family memories.

‘24 Family Vacation

We really love the stretch of land between Carolina Beach and Charleston. Vacationed at a dozen places in between and found this house to be big enough for our family and centrally located whether we wanted to go to Southport and take the ferry over to Carolina Beach or a quick ride into Myrtle Beach or Wilmington. This place fit us perfectly. We also love just staying local and checking out everything ocean Isle had to offer. We loved it and will come again.

Ocean Isle Beach is beautiful in itself but add Happy Hours and it made a very memorable vacation. The home was beautiful, well stocked kitchen and pool/beach necessities and the location was perfect. The park, museum, mini golf, stores, beach were all in walking distance. We had a large group and the house did not disappoint the crowd. I highly recommend this house for your Ocean Isle stay!

Family fun

This house is wonderful. We so enjoyed the tables and chairs on the front porch to share meals and play games. The smoke detectors needed batteries and that was taken care of very quickly. The location is perfect for rentals,shopping, beach and ice cream. A great home with owners who care.

Everyone enjoyed their stay at this beautiful home.

We invited our friends and family to come down and we all had a wonderful time at this house. There were more than enough rooms and bathrooms. The kids really enjoyed the upstairs game room. We enjoyed cooking meals in the large kitchen as well as the outside entertaining area. We took advantage of the heated pool and loved sitting out on the decks. We also loved the fact it was so close to the beach and shops. We would definitely recommend this house for your next vacation. Kristen & Joe Huffstetler

Family Christmas

Had an amazing experience at this property. My family and I were able to enjoy each other in an amazing space. The elevator allowed my grandmother who is wheelchair bound to be a part of the festivities. The only negative would be in checking out. Check out is at 10am. At 10:04 while we were getting in the truck to leave when we we approached to be informed we needed to leave because other people were coming. It was 10:04….

Our 50th Wedding Anniversary

Our stay was Absolutely wonderful!! It was nice to be out of the hubbub of Myrtle Beach area. OI is beautiful, quaint and relaxing. The house is perfect on so many levels that we had a hard time leaving it each day to go to the beach or explore the nearby towns. The kitchen accommodated the eight cooks in the family all at the same time. Fixing meals is together time. The views off the decks are amazing. The pool and house is landscaped with palm trees that blow in the breeze and are lite up at night beautifully to enjoy the sunset and evening. We enjoyed being close to the park and the community events which we enjoyed them from the veranda. We have memories we will carry with us forever 🥰 We hope to be back soon. Thank you OIBHappyHours!

The Devil's in the Details

This home was in a very nice location - within walking distance to the beach and a really nice playground. The kitchen was well appointed and the double refrigerators were a plus for our large family. We did have some minor issues - our access code didn't work so we had to use the house manager's code to access the property. The internet was out when we arrived but that was rectified quickly. The other issues were mostly cleanliness items - most of the bathrooms could stand to be updated but in the interim all of the toilet seats and shower curtains need to be replaced. We also had to buy mattress and pillow covers because most beds didn't have them. We had an issue with the garbage disposal and the house manager was no help after being notified via call and text that it wasn't working. Overall the house is nice . There was plenty of room for our large family, the balconies are beautiful and provided a lovely outdoor gathering space, the pool and barbeque areas were a hit as well. *Tip - Refer to the room listing on the page versus the floor plan in the photos for an accurate bed count. Rooms 4 and 8 are configured differently than what's shown on the floor plan.

Amazing vacation!!!

We had a w wonderful time at this property. We had a total of 19 (including some babies/toddlers) and everyone had plenty of room to relax. Kitchen is stocked, pool and deck are a nice size, house is 2 blocks from the pier, and kayaks and dock were an added bonus. And plenty of covered outdoor deck space to enjoy your morning coffee or afternoon cocktails! I highly recommend this house and OIB. Such a quaint beach town.

Family reunion

This is a beautiful facility with comfortable beds and furniture. There are many places to gather both inside and out. The location is an easy walk from beach, shops and playground. The manager is wonderfully responsive. We are a family of avid cooks. The two dish washers and refrigerators were key. Just about any utensil or pot size was available. Some were in rough shape but there were duplicates. Be aware that the captains nook has very narrow beds built into the walls. It was best used for storage or as a last resort. It is not pictured on VRBO. The pool was lovely and supplied with plenty of floats and seating. The best part was definitely working with Alicia. She went above and beyond.
