We usually stay on the beach when we go on vacation but this year my husband wanted to be able to fish so we found this place on the Inlet and let me tell you we will never want to stay anywhere BUT this place. The house is on a quiet dead end road so there is no traffic, my kids were able to ride their bikes down the road to the candy store no problem. It was so quiet and peaceful. The proximity to the beach is great too, only a short drive. We spent our mornings at the beach and evenings fishing and crabbing off the dock. Ocean Isle Beach Fish Company was so good we ate there twice during our stay. WONDERFUL vacation.
