Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina
RENOVATED IN MARCH 2024
Dog friendly. Majestic views of the Intracoastal Waterway! Swims in the canal, kayaking, fishing from the boat dock! The location provides easy access for ocean-bound or waterway fishing trips including day trips to island beaches nearby. The beach is a short 10-minute walk. A large beach cart is provided with room for a cooler and beach chairs.
When you arrive...
- The prevalent "change-over" day occurred the day before. It is much easier (traffic) to get here.
- How much would you appreciate linens and towels being provided Including resort-quality BEACH towels Not only are the linens provided, but the BEDS ARE MADE TOO!
- You discover that all of the basic supplies you will need for your stay are stocked and waiting. Even the spice cabinet is loaded up for your use. Maybe you do not need to go to the store after arrival.
- You have 2 refrigerators. The downstairs refrigerator is turned down for cold beverage storage and has an ice maker. The upstairs refrigerator also has an ice maker and is the place for food storage.
- Since you are arriving on Sunday, not the prevalent "change-over" day, the landing shouldn't be as crowded when you go to put your boat in the water. I also suggest loading the boat back on the trailer 11 am and 2 PM on Saturday to avoid the peak time the landing is used.
The front and back decks have been renovated with cabled railings. There are gathering places on both decks but mainly on the back deck. The back deck has been redesigned to provide more usable space. on the back deck, there is a patio table with seating for 8 people. There is also a picnic table that provides ample seating for 6 people. And there are rockers for people like me who just enjoy sitting out and watching the boat traffic on the canal and intra-coastal waterway.
The kitchen has been completely renovated with new cabinets and countertops. More storage space was added.
The vanities in both bathrooms have been updated.
The old windows have been replaced with "quiet" and hurricane-rated windows.
Large living area, 4 bedrooms / 2 baths upstairs / 2 bedrooms / 1 bath downstairs. Sleeps, 13 people. Decks on the front and the canal side of the house upstairs. It also includes a patio and outdoor shower downstairs.
A floating dock at the end of the walkway provides convenient docking space, flounder fishing, or a platform for swims in the canal.
A washer, dryer, AND an additional refrigerator/freezer with an icemaker are provided downstairs in the storage room.
There is no need to go anywhere else (by land) after arrival. The patio downstairs includes all of the cooking tools needed (grills, 2-eye gas burner, etc.) to prepare your own feasts.
Ample parking for 6 vehicles.
NOTE: There is a $100 Administrative Fee (per booking) added to the price for renting our cottage. If you report to the owner (by email, text, or phone call) that you DID NOT bring pets, the $100 administrative fee will be refunded to you after your stay.
We’ve stayed at this house a couple of times now. It is very well equipped and we love being on the canal as we bring our boat with us. It’s a very modest cozy cottage and we enjoy it every time. The owner is VERY friendly and helpful with any issues or questions. I would certainly recommend this cottage and we will definitely be back again! It also has some sentimental value to us as we lost our son and his best friend in a car accident in June and they were both with us last time we stayed here. It was bittersweet but very nice to be there.
Great location, we enjoyed our stay
This house is great! There was plenty of room for everyone and my 16 year old dog loved it! It was a short walk from ice cream, coffee and a couple shops. If you don’t want to walk to the beach I do recommend renting a golf cart in advance.
If you have a reunion or multiple families this house is perfect!! There are 6 queen size beds and 2 twin! There is a downstairs for half of gusts only accessible if you go outside! We managed to work it so that we only used the upstairs! The location is perfect!! A short walk to the beach made entire vacation! We rented a pontoon that we parked at dock on property! Had never been to OIB and this sleepy beach town exceeded our expectations! Owner of this property was the most kind man! I texted him with only a few questions and he would immediately respond with a phone call! He was able to answer all of my questions! If you love fishing and the beach all you need for this location is a fishing pole and a beach towel! Would love to go back!!!
Overall I loved the location next to the canal and the nice back yard. Stairs to front and rear decks need some work. I’m a large man and I was a little nervous about stepping on a few of the steps. Bobby’s info pack is the best I’ve seen in my many years of renting beach houses. It covered everything and was very helpful.
Our family loved this house! It was the perfect amount of space for us, our 2 kiddos, and dog! The house was immaculate and equipped with all the necessary supplies ? the canal view in the evening was goregous and so peacefully. Bobby was absolutely wonderful and responded very quickly to any of our questions! 10/10 would recommend for a family vacation ?
My husband & I (and 1 happy dog) enjoyed our stay at this very comfortable home. My husband was very thankful for recliner! Beds upstairs were comfortable as well. I recommend this house and we look forward to staying here again!
This is our 2nd time staying at this property. It is perfect for us! We have enjoyed spending the last 2 Christmases here. The house is in a great location and offered everything we needed for our Christmas stay.
First Vrbo rental. Went smooth. Bobby was a great host.
We really enjoyed the location and the house itself. We brought our boat and we’re able to utilize the dock to keep it in the water all week and that was extremely convenient. We would certainly stay here again! The property owner was very responsive and easy to talk to as well!!
We enjoyed our stay in this classic OIB home. Sipping coffee on the deck was a great way to start the day. Kitchen and bathroom supplies were well stocked. The beach access was one block down from the street entrance and it was a quick trip down the canal with our boat to the dock.
This house was great. 13 of us enjoyed our stay. AC is amazing. Bath towels are not provided so take your own. The gas grill does not work just FYI. We had taken steaks to grill and didn’t get to enjoy that meal. We don’t like charcoal. Rent a golf cart and the ride to the beach is easy. We loved being on the water. The kids enjoyed kayaking, paddle boarding, and fishing. The neighbors are very nice. There is a long clothes line for hanging out towels and clothes after you wash them. Everyone had a blast and I would definitely recommend this house.
The house was exactly as described but the layout was better than we anticipated. Everyone had their own space and I could have spent the entire weekend on the back deck watching boats. Everyone had a fabulous time!
Great house
The house is well laid out. Our family was Mom and Dad, adult son and his girlfriend, adult daughter and her husband, 4 1/2 yo twin grandsons, and 1 yo granddaughter. This house provided just the right mix of togetherness and yet everyone had their own space too. The owners were very responsive in dealing with a few small issues. We'll be back!
This house worked out perfect for a group of coworkers. Canal dock was perfect for kayak launch, beach and restaurants were close by.
Great location, close to everything at the beach. Great layout and plenty of room for all of us. Fished every day off the dock and caught fish every day! Host was super responsive and great to work with. Tommy
