The Pink Cottage started as a fishing shack in 1955, the year after hurricane Hazel. In 1968 the 2 bedrooms and a bathroom were added. Also the back porch was enclosed and the kitchen was added including a large deck facing the water. In 2021 the shack was completely renovated and became The Pink Cottage. An enclosed outside shower with hot and cold water was added. The kitchen is fully furnished including a dishwasher. The pink cottage overlooks Montgomery Slough with its tidal creek where at low tide the many species of birds feed, at high tide watch for the dolphins. You may access the Slough at 17th Place West where you can catch your own shrimp, crab, or just explore the marsh with all its abundant life. You can also launch your kayak from this access. You don't have to worry about beach parking - it is just a short walk to the beach.

    The house was very clean. The beds were pretty hard and the stove and cooking accessories were old and didn’t work the greatest. The owner made several comments about our service dog which I didn’t care for. Said several times “his mother in law is highly allergic to dogs”. I have documentation on the dog and that’s part of being a host is to accommodate that. Owner lives right next door too, so not much privacy as you feel like you’re being watched the entire time.

    Absolutely beautiful cottage and location. Hosts John and Sarah are the best! The cottage was spotless and well equipped. Beautiful views of the slough and a very quick walk to a beautiful beach. The sunsets are stunning. We hope to return next season. Keith and Sabrina - North Carolina

    Our stay at The Pink Cottage was amazing! It was just what my family needed. The pictures of the cottage don't do it justice. It is so beautifully decorated and clean. The view is so serene and it is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood with a very short walk to the beach. It's the perfect place to be for exploring Oak Island. Thank you, John and Sarah for allowing us to be in your home

    It is very cute! Good size for two Adults. Not a lot of closet space but a lot of dresser storage. Small dishwasher but was fine for us! Great views of marsh and sunsets! Love the back porch with rockers! It was spotless when we arrived! I really appreciated that! John and Sarah were very nice.

    This was our first time at OKI, my husbands family rented multiple houses for the week. We stayed here with one other couple and our small children. With the other family members being close by, we were really only here to sleep but wish we would have had more time to enjoy it! The house was clean, absolutely adorable, and my little girls have begged to go back to “our pink house” since we left. My husband mentioned that he hates he didn’t have more time to fish because the house is on the water. Overall, we had a great experience and the owners were nice and very easy to communicate with. Would recommend and will likely stay again!

    My husband and I absolutely loved staying at the pink cottage. The house has a lot of charm and is decorated beautifully. The view of the waterway from the house is amazing and is only a short walk to the beach. I would definitely book here again!

    We enjoyed our time at this amazing little Pink Cottage. We celebrated our 42nd Anniversary and had a very relaxing and peaceful time. Being on the deck and just enjoying the birds and nature was my favorite. This house and host, John did not disappoint and we will return for another stay. John was courteous and helpful with any questions we had. We highly recommend this house , it has everything you need and the outdoor shower was nice too. Beach walk was quick and access to the beach was easy. Thank you for sharing your cottage. T and W, Wilmington, NC

    The Pink Cottage is perfect. A lovely little home on the tidal creek. It has beautiful marsh views (we saw an amazing sunset) and is a quick walk to the beach. The kitchen is well-equipped, and the mini-split system kept the house nice & cool. The hosts have thought of everything to make this a wonderful stay.

    Charming cottage with everything you could possibly need - hosts were responsive to communication and made the Pink Cottage an easy choice for our anniversary weekend. Clean and comfortable, close to everything, could have harvested oysters from the marsh if we wanted to- the hardest part was leaving!

    Staying at the Pink Cottage is an island experience you don't get with just any rental. The house is amazing, extremely clean, decorated beautifully and has all the comforts of home. The views from the back looking at the marsh is so wonderful and so peaceful. Honestly the walk to the beach is short and super easy which is a plus when not staying ocean front. John and Sarah are great host! Thanks for sharing your little piece of paradise with us.

    We spent 3 nights here and absolutely loved this place. It is bigger on the inside than it appears outside. It is cozy, charming, well furnished, had quality linens, was impeccably clean, and decorated beautifully. Plus there are stunning sunsets from the back deck where there is also nice outdoor shower. John and Sarah the owners live next door and were extremely helpful and provided kayaks for us to launch from their doc. It was a very short 5 min walk to the beach in a relatively quiet area in OKI. Awesome rental for a small group (4 or less). Highly recommend.
