Excellent stay in a newly renovated home

It was a pleasure to stay in this clean, well appointed home. Everything we needed was provided: coffee pods, extra towels, washer and dryer, Netflix, and sand toys. Staying here was so comfortable, like being in our own home minus the clutter. We were able to bring our dog, participate in a wedding weekend, and visit a number of different beaches during our stay. Though there are many choices on the island, we look forward to staying here again.

Great Stay/Great House

This home is exactly what we needed. Very accurately described. Clean and beautiful. Most importantly close to the beach. The kitchen has everything you need. Pool was great also. Our dog loved the fenced-in backyard. Not one bad thing to say.

Great Stay!

Beach house was perfect for our fall weekend stay. Home is conveniently located in a quiet neighborhood. Fenced in yard was nice for the pups. There is a Publix and several restaurants close by. Really appreciated the small details like: bath soap, coffee pods/sugar, etc. Easy check in/out. Very Clean. Owner was very responsive. Would definitely stay here again!

Summer Family Vacation

We decided on a last minute beach trip and wanted to bring our furry family member and this cute place was available! The house was the perfect size for 5 people and a pet. Great, quiet neighborhood for walking & biking. Was a short, easy walk to the beach. The pool was a fabulous addition and perfect way to end a long day at the beach. Kitchen had everything we needed...loved the countertop ice maker! And the doggie door! This was a great place to kick off our summer season! Would definitely book again! Thank you!

Everything and more!

The house was everything we wanted and could have needed! All was as described in the listing and the amenities were more than what we had anticipated. The pool was great and our first night were surprised at how beautifully the backyard and pool were lit up. After accidently locking ourselves out, our host and co-host provided immediate response and were at the property within the half hour to get us back in. The neighborhood is clean and quiet and I love how the back yard backs up to a wooded area. The linen service was surprisingly excellent...the towels were exceptionally soft and plush. The kitchen was fully functional with pots/pans, plates, coffee maker, small cooking appliances, etc. The AC was consistent and sufficient in keeping the house cool during the week of our stay when outside temps were hitting 100+. Being our first time on Oak Island, we loved the area and selecting this home for our stay really just made it all the more special to spend time with family. Thank you!!

Blue House winter 2023

Property is very well presented in the listing. The only surprise was the access to the back yard, which is through the Master bedroom. Made sleeping in tough! LOL. We were also having a hard time with TV access, but the property manager Mariah was amazing!! She came by and sat with us, gave us a tutorial and then the "year-round resident" view of local eateries, etc. We tried several of her suggestions and loved them. Neighbors are very friendly. We had a play date with neighbors german shepard pup and told of a dog park on the way to Southport that was awesome. This is our second year in the neighborhood and love how easy it is bike, quiet and friendly!. We used Mr. Beach bike rentals and they drop off and pick up right to the driveway. I walked to the beach with the dog. We stayed three weeks in February .

Little Blue House

We had a great week! The fenced-in yard was wonderful for our fur-babies in addition to not having to worry about carpet. Also, we rented a golf cart and made it to the beach each day in a jiffy! The owner spoke with us by phone to answer questions about the TV and was so nice. We loved our stay!!

Perfect!

We had an amazing time! The house is perfect, the beds are incredibly comfortable, the neighborhood was friendly and very quiet. You can walk to the beach, the inter coastal waterway, and there’s a great local restaurant for breakfast right up the street. The beach was pretty and wide. We had fun surf fishing. Our dog loved the fenced in yard and his own doggy door. We loved morning coffee and hanging with our dog on the back patio. The kitchen had everything we needed. The neighborhood would be great for riding bicycles (I’ll take those next time!) Nancy is available for any concerns, but we never had to ask her anything because all the answers are in a nice three ring notebook on the kitchen cabinet. We will definitely go back! Wonderful place!!

Spring Break Getaway

Spent 3 nights there with a friend but wish we’d spent all week. House is very clean, appliances seem new, and the mattresses were so comfy after a day fishing and kayaking. Wish my dog had been there because the fenced yard is huge and the back door is accessed from the main bedroom and has a large dog door. We kayaked the ICW which is a 2 minute drive, and fished the Yaupon Pier which is a 5 minute drive. My favorite “extra” was the countertop ice maker! We will definitely stay here again.

February visit

We spent the month of February at this property, We purchased a home in Oak Island and stayed at this property for the month waiting for the closing and getting organized for the move. I highly recommend staying at this property. Nancy was wonderful to work with and communication was excellent. The house was clean, comfy and stocked with all that we needed. It’s extremely pet friendly including a lovely dog door that my dog learned how to use and enjoyed going out into the fenced in yard. We noticed in the garage there is a plentiful supply of beach toys and items. The neighborhood is quiet and we enjoyed meeting the neighbors. The location is close to beach access and to the grocery store. We even booked a return week long visit in March. Thank you Nancy for your hospitality.

Great Place In a Fantastic Location!

This is such a great house for a trip to Oak Island. We loved the fenced in back yard, the fact that it's pet friendly, and the outdoor shower for getting rinsed off after a day at the beach. Inside, there's plenty of space in the three bedrooms, lots of games for the whole family in the living room and good space for working in the kitchen. The owner, Nancy, was extremely responsive and helped us work through the one hiccup we had upon arrival. The location is good, only a couple blocks walk down to the beach (or a very short drive to several different beach access areas). Also a very short drive to grocery stores, restaurants, ice cream shops, etc. Overall, I highly recommend!
