We had a great stay at Makin Memories! The location was ideal, a quick golf cart ride to central OIB or a short walk (even with young kids) to hit the beach. Our hosts were so communicative and accommodating - it was easy to get settled in and was great for our family of 4. Would recommend for any families looking for a lovely trip to our favorite beach town!

The place accomadated everyone comfortably and is at a great location. The kitchen has pretty much everything that's needed for a homecooked meal. The owner was super nice and answered very quickly regarding a bathroom door that our kids accidently locked. The whole place was clean, inside and out.

Great location on Ocean Isle for a family vacation with young kids. Great views from the house and very close to beach access, a short walk with a wagon. Plenty of room with plenty of bathrooms and good layout.

The property was perfect for our group which included 3 couples and 5 kids ranging 7-12. The pool was great to entertain the kids when we weren’t down at the beach or out and about and there was plenty of space for dining. There were enough different common spaces for smaller groups to do their own thing at the house, but they were big enough that we could all be together too. Despite not being right on the water, the smaller house in front of this one affords a decent view of the ocean- we enjoyed a few thunderstorms over the ocean from the top balcony. The house was clean and had good kitchen amenities, but we did have to supply our own linens and towels (fine for us since we drove). The hosts were super communicative and check-in/check-out couldn’t have been easier. We will definitely look to stay here again!

Our stay in OIB was the perfect week. Makin’ Memories allowed our crew to enjoy each day to the fullest. The space was clean, comfortable, and the best fit for our 12 person group. The owner was easily accessible before, during, and after the trip whenever we needed a question answered. We will definitely be making a return trip.

Perfect home for us, our children and our young grandkids. Very comfortable and spacious. Safe area. Close enough to the beach to walk with all our young ones. The beach access to the left had no stairs, so easier for strollers and wagons. The beach access to the right had stairs.

Makin' Memories was perfect for our family vacation! We were amazed at how stocked the kitchen was for cooking! Plenty of dishes and silverware for our large family too! Bedrooms were ALL spacious and the living room and kitchen had plenty of room for us all to hangout! We loved the easy and short walk to the beach! I also appreciated that the owner was quick to respond when I had questions during the booking process and even messaged to check on us while we were there! My family plans to book again!!

Great stay

The house is in a great location. It was close to the beach and a short drive to restaurants and stores. The pool was heated and a big win with the kids. The kitchen had all the tools you could possibly need, and for once I didn’t have to take out or unpack my own kitchen tools. The house had plenty of room for our whole family, and we will certainly look to book this one again.

Loved our week at Makin Memories

We had a great week staying at Makin’ Memories. The house layout was perfect for our group of 10. Kids very much enjoyed the pool and the beach access was super convenient. Other large beach houses we have stayed in have had AC’s that struggled with the heat and humidity. Not here. House stayed perfectly cool all week. Would definitely book again.

September at Ocean Isle Beach

The beach house was clean, well-appointed with kitchenware and appliances, and well located within a short walk to the beach. Owners were attentive to our needs and communicated with us during our stay to make sure everything was to our liking. House was renovated roughly 3 years ago so it didn't feel old or dingy like many of the other beach homes we have stayed at over the past few years. Would definitely stay there again if the opportunity arises in the future.

Arrived to the house and got in easily. I had to wait for the family, but once they got there, the fun had begun. The pool was great, beach was awesome, weather super, food was good (it was my cheat week), and my family had a great time as well.

Wonderful weekend

Overall this was a wonderful stay and I’d stay here again. Great beach views! Loved the fact that every bedroom had its own bathroom. The only downside is they don’t provide linens unless you order them and there was no toilet paper or hand soap on arrival. Make sure you grab those things on your way in.
