Wonderful home and perfect for our family with 5 adult kids and 2 pups. Everything about the space was perfect! The kitchen was great for family meals including a full Thanksgiving dinner.
The house was great and the kitchen was wonderful. It is definitely a chef’s kitchen. There is a dune blocking view from the living room. There is a ocean view from the deck.The linen service provided the wrong size sheets but they brought the correct size the next day. The towels they provided were awful so I recommend bringing your own.We did have a wonderful time on Oak Island.
