If you’re looking for a family and pet-friendly escape with the best of both worlds, you’ll love our cozy home by the ICW! Take a short 2-minute drive to the beach or a quick walk to the boat pier. The storage shed has two single kayaks available for use and there is a boat ramp within walking distance.

Upon entering the house you’ll be greeted with an open living/dining area with a smart TV so that you can access any streaming service. WiFi is available throughout the house. The kitchen has room for up to 8 with a table and barstools, granite countertops, and a fully equipped kitchen (Keurig, blender, pots and pans, crockpot, and even sippy cups). Both the master and queen bedrooms have smart tvs with access to login to your favorite streaming services. The master bathroom has a large shower and the hall bathroom has a bathtub/shower combo.

Head into the backyard to enjoy the fire pit on cool nights, while the kids play in the fenced-in yard, or enjoy time grilling on the charcoal grill.

The front porch is perfect for sipping your morning coffee or sharing a meal together. There are two ceiling fans to keep cool in the shade.

Oak Island has amazing local restaurants, coffee shops, shopping, and a large local park with a splash ground, full-court basketball, tennis, community center, and play area. Take a drive to the Oak Island Lighthouse, or to nearby Southport for shopping, and seafood, or to take the ferry to Kure Beach and the Fort Fisher Aquarium.

You will love all that Old North State of Mind and Oak Island have to offer!

    We were very pleased with our stay. Kara was accommodating to our requests and needs, as well as quick to respond to our inquiries. We have 2 large dogs that we wanted to bring and I was amazed to find a place that allows not just one but 2 large breed pups. The neighborhood was quiet and conveniently located near the local grocery store and gas station. Checking in and out was straightforward and simple. We'll definitely recommend Kara's place to our friends.

    We really enjoyed our vacation at Oak Island! This was our second year visiting and this house made it so enjoyable. It has a great location to everything and was so comfortable. The dogs enjoyed the fenced in yard and the neighbor even gave them treats over the fence. Thanks for allowing us to stay!

    The house was cute and exactly as described. The bedrooms were good size and comfortable. Having the fenced in backpack for our dog was very convenient. We used the kayaks to explore the Intercoastal waterway. It was super convenient to be able to launch them around the corner from the house. The neighborhood is really nice and everyone was friendly. We walked to the beach from the house which only took about 12 minutes. The front porch was nice to hang out on in the shade. I would recommend staying here. For reference, we are a family of 4.

    There was cleanliness issues upon arrival that the property owner resolved in a timely manner. It was the fault of the cleanling company and not the property owner. Overall this is a good property that is well equipped.
