Summary:

Enjoy a quiet Oak Island vacation at this mid-century modern beach house. 60's surf vibe with a perfect third row location for families with walkable, low traffic access to the beach and sound. The beach at the access by the house is typically not crowded even on holidays. The sound access nearby is frequented by kayakers/paddle-boarders.





Historic Southport and Wilmington are nearby (25 and 40 min respectively) with just over an hour drive to Myrtle Beach. Mid-June-Aug Sun-Sund stays only.



The Space:

The house has been updated with new flooring, living room furniture, and beds. An outdoor shower, picnic, charcoal and gas grill are provided.



Bed linens and bath towels are provided with an additional fee built in to the booking.



BEACH TOWELS ARE NOT INCLUDED.



There are a generally a few beach chairs available to use, but I advise guests to rent or bring their own.



Guest Access:

Storage area with washer/dryer.



Beach chairs (2-4), beach cart, and toys in the storage area are available for use at no charge.



A Weber 2200 propane grill is available in the storage area. A propane tank is provided and can be restocked at the convenience store on Middleton if needed. Weber 2200 grill propane cartridges can also be purchased at Lowes, Walmart.



Unfortunately, I cannot guarantee propane availability or the exact number of beach chairs due to guest usage.



The Neighborhood:

The west end of Oak Island is very laid back. The beaches are not crowded and there is little traffic. The houses in the area are mostly vacation rentals, but there are a few permanent residents. The house has sound access on 39th a short walk away for paddleboarding and kayaking.The point (2 miles away) at the far end is a great place for walking, finding seashells.

Getting Around:

Golf cart and bike rentals are available in the area (not included with the house). See my Guidebook for recommendations.



Other Things to Note:

We provide a few essential amenities to get you started on your vacation, including a couple rolls of bathroom tissue, paper towels, hand soap, dish washing soap, a couple laundry pods & dishwasher tabs, as well as some extra trash bags. You'll want to bring more for use throughout your vacation.



Your linens will be delivered in wrapped and labeled packages just prior to your arrival by a professional linen service company, and include sheets for all beds, bath towels, hand towels and wash cloths for each individual, kitchen towels and dish cloths, as well as bath mats. The house will have pillows, blankets and quilts. You'll want to be sure to bring beach towels!



Guests must be 25 years or older to rent the house. Exceptions may be made upon request.



The house was purchased in 2017 and I will be updating the decor over time. Some of the current images do not reflect all of the changes and hope to have some profession photos this spring.



Interaction with Guests:

I respect my guests' privacy and do not visit the house when booked. The house is now co-managed by Mariah Brazil who lives on the island and myself. Mariah will respond to all urgent requests. I work in the ER and am not always available to answer my phone immediately. I respond as quickly as possible and always within the same day.

    We came down for a fishing trip! The house was clean and had everything we needed. It was in a great location for us because it was close to a boat ramp and a restaurant. The fishing in the area is always good and the bite was on! Thanks for letting us stay.

    We loved this house! It was very clean, had lots of seating indoors and out for our group, confortable beds, and one of the best-stocked kitchens we have had in a vacation rental. We appreciated the attention to small details like labelled light switches, reading lamps in the bedrooms, spices in the kitchen, and laundry detergent by the washer. The house is super close to the beach, and we appreciated that there were plenty of beach chairs and even a couple of boogie boards for our use. The neighborhood is very quiet and safe, and David is an excellent communicator. Overall, we had a wonderful week, and we all agreed that we would happily return another time.

    Both us and our teens loved this charming beach cottage. We all loved the overall vibe of the home and appreciated the artistic choices. It was a quick walk to the beach, 3-4 minutes tops. As far as amenities go, basically every need was met. I have stayed at enough VRBOs to know when an owner has tried to meet those smaller, everyday needs and these guys are on top of it. The tiki area is so charming, the outdoor shower is great, and just so you know the laundry is below the house as well, that is also where a menagerie of beach gear lives. Beds were comfy with different weight blankets available if needed. Water pressure was awesome too. The island in the kitchen was exactly what we needed for family meals. The following are NOT negatives at all, just notes for the owner to follow up with; the awesomely vintage blender is unfortunately broken (the plastic that should catch the spinner is broke), your front screen door is having an issue catching and staying closed (we simply locked it to prevent any further damage and used the sliding door), and I never did find the crockpot (but the stove worked fantastically). Thank you so much for sharing your home with us! This was one of the best family vacations ever!

    Adorably vintage with new, clean bathtubs and super comfortable mattresses. We rented a golf cart but the beach was such a close and easy walk we didn’t even bother driving it there most days. The kitchen had all that we needed to stay home and cook most nights and the open floor plan in the kitchen/living room was perfect for cooking, eating, and spending time together. It was everyone’s first time at Oak Island but I would definitely visit again and would rent this house again as well!

    Home was close to the beach. Nice porch, but no shade. Definitely needs updates, but was clean and nice location.
