Founder’s Manor was the perfect spot for my father’s 90th surprise birthday party. We rented tables and chairs for the side patio and had plenty of room. It was a beautiful setting. The second kitchen worked well for the caterers. Family flew in from Miami, NYC, Detroit and DC with many of them staying across the street at the hotel. The house was big enough for us all to sit together in the adjoining dining room, living room, porch. The view of the ocean from the knoll is awesome. Marnie is a wonderful host; very attentive and accommodating. Thank you Marnie!

From the day I booked Founders Manor many months back, Host Marnie and I have been in contact with each other. She graciously let me in the house when there were no renters, so that my family could see the layout and assign bedrooms ahead of time for our thanksgiving vacation. FM is not your typical “beach house”, but a wonderful home at the beach, which just makes it better!

We couldn’t be happier with our stay in this house. The home and property were clean and the location can’t be beat! The views could not be beat and the proximity to the ocean was fantastic! It was the perfect house to use as our son got married at the Ocean Isle Chapel. There was tons of space that allowed people to spread out. Marnie, the owner, couldn’t have been more fantastic and we appreciated her recommendations!

We absolutely loved our stay at Founder's Manor. Marnie was very responsive and helpful throughout the week. The house was phenomenal and large enough for our family. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. The outside areas were fantastic, and we had ample room to park our cars and the golf carts we rented. We also enjoyed how close we were to everything and that we could walk to restaurants, the pier, the beach, etc. It was a perfect week, and I would strongly recommend Founder's Manor as a wonderful home in OIB!

Great house in an ideal location. Perfect for the dogs who loved having a yard to play in. Short walk to the beach and to the local town center. The house had everything we needed and was very comfortable to stay in. We also appreciated the welcome baskets with snacks and other useful items. Marnie made sure we had everything we needed and was very friendly. Would definitely come back again.

Our family really enjoyed our visit to Ocean Isle Beach! It was fun staying in a house with so much history. The house was in a great location, within walking distance to the beach, ice cream shops and a playground for the kids. We loved that our extended family of 12 could all eat our meals together around the large dining table, and could gather for games and conversation in the large living room. The outdoor space was lovely as well! If I could make one improvement, it would be to make the downstairs bath more private since the shower door opens directly into the bedroom. Overall, this was a great gathering space for our family!

The Manor House of Ocean Isle Beach checked all of our boxes for my son's wedding rehearsal dinner and out of town guest stay. A lovely private home with ocean and waterway views that was beautifully furnished and wee equipped. The ample parking with central location is hard to find on the island. I loved the mid century vibes and house history. Perfect place to get together with all of your extended family or special occaision

We were very pleased with our decision to stay at Founders Manor. The house is dated but it keeps with its history and nostalgia. There were a few very minor hiccups but Marnie, the property owner, was there in a flash to handle it. If you are a big TV watcher when you go to bed, beware there isnt a TV in every bedroom or the main living area. There is a big one in the basement which is a great area for kids to hang out. The pups loved the huge yard and the side patio area was ideal to watch the waves. We will definitely rent from Marnie again if we are ever in the area.

Charming, Historical Home that is second to none!!!
Our annual trip to Ocean Isle Beach this year led us to be the very first guests to stay at Historical Founders Manor, home to Odell Williamson, founder of Ocean Isle Beach. It wasn't your typical "beach house" but it offered a charm that was unmatched. Waking up to the ocean view and watching the sunset all from the comfort of the home was amazing!!! Everything is in walking distance or a short bike ride. We've grown to love Ocean Isle beach and to be able to stay in the home of the founder was truly special. You can see and feel the history and southern charm in this home. We will definitely look forward to staying here again!!!

Founder’s Manor
We attended a wedding on Ocean Isle and stayed 4 days at this property. Family included - 8 adults and an 18 mo old.
Property was superb in every way - location (church was across the street) and close to ocean and town, very clean, property was exactly as described, owner was a pleasure to deal with and communication via text was immediate. An added benefit - a family pass to the Ocean Isle Beach Club - 1 1/4 mile away. Club was on the ocean with pool and offered food & drinks.
Would definitely recommend for a family or group of 6-12 guests. Plenty of space and 2 kitchens.

Extraordinary!!
Our family traveled from several states to share a long weekend at this beautiful home. The views are spectacular, and the layout is perfect for making the best memories! Spacious enough to accommodate a large group, this home boasted a fully stocked kitchen, and areas both inside and out to seat the entire family for meals. The home has a prime location, in walking distance to many of the island's activities, and enough outside space to feel like you have privacy. Our family loved that the main family spaces did not have televisions, which encouraged family bonding time! Thank you to the amazing host for great communication and for sharing a part of OIB history. We will be back!

Founder’s Manor is a beautiful property that is perfect for a short weekend getaway or week long stay at the beautiful, family friendly Ocean Isle Beach. The home is unique and perfect for a family vacation. Not even the cloudy weather and rain showers from Hurricane Erin could put a damper on our weekend trip. The entire family LOVED the house with all its unique character and charm, plenty of space for everyone (our group of 12), lots of room to cook, plenty of sleeping space, and plenty of areas to escape and have your own me time. The outdoor space is beautiful with plenty of seating. It was nice to be able to sit outside and just relax all while taking in the views that the property has to offer. The beautiful landscaping, lush green grass, ocean and creek views that surround the property were all breathtaking. I literally have nothing negative to say about the home and could continue to write about all the things that we enjoyed about the home. I selfishly wish that this home and property could be just my little secret but everyone should get the opportunity to experience the magic of Founder’s Manor at least once. Marine Williamson was extremely kind, caring and absolutely the best to work with. Communication with Marine was a breeze.

À propos de l ’hôte
Hôte : Marnie Williamson
My name is Marnie Williamson and Founder's Manor was my childhood home. I have so many wonderful memories of growing up in the "House on the Hill" as it is often referred to by locals. I have lived on Ocean Isle Beach for over 50 years and truly love sharing our beautiful island community with others.
Voici pourquoi l’hôte a choisi cet hébergement
I appreciate being able to watch the sunrise over the Atlantic from the front yard and the sunset over Jink's Creek in the backyard. I look forward to watching deer graze in the early morning and evening hours and keeping an eye out for Egrets, Herons, and Pelicans over the sound. Being in the center of the Island with no adjacent homes is also a lovely feature of Founder's Manor.
Voici ce qui rend cet hébergement unique
I love that the land surrounding the Founder's Manor remains untouched and that the historical significance of the home is being preserved.
