Private, quiet, and short walk to the beach, with new heated pool!

We absolutely love this stay! We will be back next year!! P.S. the pool is a game changer.

We’ve been vacationing as a family for years and have stayed at many different places. Clare House-Dennehy was the best house we’ve stayed at! It was so nice to walk in and have it be better than the pictures and SO CLEAN! The kitchen has allll the things anyone could need. The primary bed is so comfy. And the pool is AMAZING.

We stayed for a week in the beginning of July, 2024. Unlike anywhere else we have stayed at oak island in the last 16 years, the linens were already in place, and basic amenities were there (hand soap, TP, trash bags, etc.). When we left we made sure to restock the supplies we used but it was so nice to not have to worry about that day one. The house was very well equipped, a loaded kitchen with all you need, comfortable beds and furniture, speedy internet, and nice TV's. The kids room even had a desk where we could setup our laptop. Outside it had a lovely pool with chairs, seating in the shade, and a fully screened porch that was great in the evenings. The driveway was nice and wide, easy to get in and out, and plenty of parking space. Lastly Kathy was really nice and communicative with all information relayed by text in a timely manner. And aside from that she was not intrusive in the least which I know some owners can be. I really can't say enough positive things about our stay, we truly loved it.

This house was one of the best we’ve ever rented! The saltwater pool was a delight and thoroughly enjoyed by all of us! The owners are very friendly and we felt they really want everyone to enjoy their stay. We all agreed this house was a definite repeat!!

Kathy was a great host. Very helpful with information. Oak Island is away from the hustle and bustle of big tourist towns. It’s quaint and very quiet.

The house was well-stocked and clean, and the perfect spot for our family vacation. The pool is awesome and great for kids - we enjoyed using it every day! Kathy was a pleasure and quick to respond. She gave us the ok to harvest some vegetables from the garden for a lovely summer salad and fried green tomatoes! Overall great memories were made!

Our vacation at the Clair House was amazing! We rented it for a week and never left the place only to go to the store. We cook in. The kitchen was well stock. The pool was great. Lots of games.Kathy is a great host. Thank you For renting your place. Cuffia Family

House is perfect for small groups, we stayed there with my wife, 2 kids, and parents. House was very clean, pool is perfect and the owners are fantastic. Kathy was always a text message away and incredibly helpful and responsive. Would definitely stay there again!

The home was great. It accommodated 4 adults and 3 kids aged 7-9 with no issues. The house was clean and well equipped with everything needed to stay for the week. The pool was prefect in size and was cleaned twice the week we were there. The owner, Kathy, was always available if we needed anything and was great to interact with. The location to the beach was a 2-3 minute drivewas and there was plenty of parking available. Overall if we choose to go back to Oak Island, we would love to stay here again.

We had such a great stay at the Clare House! The house is stocked so well with everything you could need and was very clean. The pool was AMAZING! It was perfect for my young daughters with all of the steps, ledge that went around the whole pool, and the sunbathing ledge. The house was decorated very nicely, the furniture was great.. no complaints from us. Kathy was such a gracious host and was available for any questions we had. She was really on top of everything and made sure we had an amazing stay. 10/10 would recommend!
