Our two week stay at this quaint cottage was peaceful & fantastic. It reminded me of beach cottages from the 60s & 70s. The accommodations were wonderful, & the beds were so comfortable. The owner, Pete, was attentive, available, & very personable. We will definitely be back next summer!
Location was as described and worked good for our group. Enjoyed the beach and was great for swimming and fishing! Owner was very communicative and quick to respond! Highly recommend!
The house was everything that we needed for our stay in Oak Island. The owner was very responsive by text and stopped by to try and fix the dishwasher which was broken. Would stay again!
Right on the beach—can’t beat it. King bed in master has a simply SPLENDID mattress. The cabin kitchen could use updating, but for the price and location—this one is goooddd!!
This place is great. Right in the beach. Comfortable. Plenty of space/bess for a sanity or group. Owner was extremely responsive.No question about it - I would rent this place again.
Absolutely loved this place. Perfect for our 4 Generations of family. From my 86 yr old mother to my 9 yr old Granddaughter. Loved the keyless entry. Hope we can rent it next Easter vacation.
This was a great little house right on the beach, which was perfect for the little kids. The layout of the house was great. There was plenty of room for our family of 12! Lots of games there for the kids...and adults to play.
We have stayed at this property once before and really enjoyed being right in front of the ocean, so wanted the same experience. It did not disappoint. There were 7 of us from the age range of 18 to 80s. All of us enjoyed our time here equally. The house is rustic and could use a little TLC, but you can’t beat the proximity to the ocean, the covered balcony where we sat for hours watching the waves and wildlife, beautiful beach that is not crowded, the convenience of staying together in the same space with family, a bed for everyone, and so many other conveniences. I really appreciated the brand new green pans for cooking/heating up our meals as we tend to cook some of our meals. All in all, it was such a relaxing time of rest after a very busy year!! This house provided our family with all that we needed to have wonderful vacation. I was even able to see the milky way:)
The location of this property was amazing. The beach access made it a very easy to come and go to the beach. I loved sitting on the back porch with a great ocean view!
House was exactly as described. We loved how close to the beach it was and enjoyed the back deck. We had such a wonderful trip. Host was helpful and responsive.
This place was big enough to hold our family comfortably, great view of the ocean and beach. Quick access to store for groceries. Property owner was quick to respond and extremely helpful during our stay! We would love to come back in the future!
Was very nice, location was very close to everything, enjoyed being so close to beach! House was perfect size for our needs will use again for family vacation next year year possibly a couple times!
My family absolutely loved our stay. The house was charming and right on the ocean and the beach was pristine and beautiful! Would definitely book here again.
Great place for a getaway. Great location to everything from Southport, and WIlimington and of course the beach.

About the host
Hosted by Pete Chilberg
We're a local family who live only 40 minutes away in Hampstead and check on the house regularly to ensure everything is functioning properly. We enjoy the home during the weeks and weekends that it is not rented, and enjoy working on projects such as refinishing furniture, redecorating, or just shelling during the off season. While we've owned several long-term rentals for many years, this is our only beach property. Our objective is to learn from your feedback so that you'll want to come back year after year. While I am new to the Vacation Rental business, I'm a full time Mortgage Banker who built my business through referrals and repeat business from past customers. We know that your satisfaction is the key to our success.
Why they chose this property
The home is a very affordable Oceanfront property that is well maintained with a blend of 1960's Cottage with wood paneling, and the modern conveniences of wifi, cable tv, and DVDs. New, quality mattresses mean you will get the rest you need to enjoy your days even more. Ceiling fans are in all the bedrooms and main living room to provide fresh circulation. Dual Central HVAC systems ensure the inside is kept cool on the warmest of days. Two Beach cruisers are below in the storage area to enjoy rides down Beach Dr, with bike lanes on both sides, or try riding to the pier on the sand.
What makes this property unique
Oceanfront with convenient and flexible sleeping arrangements. 9 separate beds that sleep up to 12. Wifi, cable, tv with flat screens in the living room and two of the bedrooms. The west end location provides open space without the crowds. The home has a weber propane BBQ, washer & driver, microwave and an abundance of beach chairs. Board games, cards, puzzles, books and plenty of salt breezes! We have both a conventional and Keurig coffee maker in the kitchen
