Amazing get away!!
Well stocked with a wonderful welcome package with wine and snacks which was a nice treat after a 6 hour drive. Little bit of a walk to the beach with plenty of restaurant options. We would love to return sometime!

Happy Happy week
Wendy is wonderful. The minute you walk in the cottage, you feel welcomed and at home for the week. Cute and clean little cottage. Convenient to two grocery stores and you can walk to the beach. We did everyday. The wagon is wonderful. Just load it up and off we go for the day! If you bring dogs. The back yard is perfect for relaxing with them. The neighborhood is very safe to walk them.

Oak Island Vacation
We had an amazing stay! So many amenities were supplied which made things so much easier. Our pup especially loved the dog toy welcome gifts. Such a cute house! We already booked another stay for next year.

Perfect beach get away
My sister and our two pups stayed here for a week. It was just as pictured and Wendy had everything we needed. It was a short walk to the beach and Southport was a short drive. Hope to go back soon.
