The location was amazing, just a block from the beach. We loved being able to have our dogs with us and Davis made the whole check-in process really easy. Thanks for checking in on us too!

Perfect location! Short walk to the beach, quiet area, family friendly. A great, relaxing getaway!

Davis was very accommodating and quick to respond! Definitely the best deal on the island!

We really enjoyed our stay. Davis is a very nice and helpful. Nice area. This is our second time and will go back.

This is a great rental for those on a budget but who want a comfortable, clean and serviceable stay on Oak Island. Davis is great, very communicative, and is always available to help make you feel welcome. Channel kayaking is close by at Blue Water Point, the beach on this end of the island is great, not very crowded. We saw a turtle hatch one night with 114 Loggerheads! Make sure to bring a small BBQ to grill fresh fish from Haag's Seafood (the best fresh, local supplier on the island - a wonderful variety of fish from Brunswick Catch consortium), you won't be disappointed.

We were pleasantly surprised! The place was walking distance to the beach and close to restaurants. We will probably stay there again, no hesitation.

Davis is a kind and courteous host. My husband and I really enjoyed our mini get away at Davis' place. This was our first stay at Oak Island and we really loved it. Davis gave us helpful info about places to visit and eat out. The apartment was just as described everything you would need for a simple stay. Davis provided towels, wash cloths, sheets, ample pillows and a blanket per bed. There was a fridge but no stove or sink in the kitchen area. There is a microwave, a table and comfortable kitchen chairs. My husband and I were there for a get away and prelude to celebrating our 36th wedding anniversary. We just wanted some place where we could slip away with our Pomeranian pups. Nothing fancy or pricey. The sleeping arrangement would have been perfect if there had been a queen size bed instead of 2 twin beds. However the twin beds were comfy and clean. Davis provided basic cable and a small TV (but who spends all day watching TV when the ocean is calling "come play")? There is a window air conditioner that keeps the apartment comfortable. I was happy to see things like a Nickolas Sparks book waiting to be read on a side table. There were playing cards for which I enjoyed a few hands of solitaire and there was a puzzle ready to be worked. Simple gestures like this made me smile. My husband and I had a great time relaxing and just being with one another without all the craziness this world creates. Thanks again Davis. You RoCk!

This is a great location and a good place to stay if you will be out and about during the day. It was a quick walk to the beach and a quick drive to restaurants and other attractions on the island. It is exactly as pictured.

We had a great time at "The Tree House". Kitchen was well equipped to feed a family of four for a few days. Clean and Bright! Comfortable mattresses. Just what we needed for a late summer beach getaway without paying oceanfront prices. Beautiful beach is just a couple minutes away.

Very clean and quiet. Nice location.

Penny's place was so clean and organized. Just a short drive to the beach and the intercoastal waterway at the end of the road. Awesome place and hope to return soon.

Leigh's place is beautiful and well decorated! We loved the nice quiet neighborhood and comfortable accommodations. Our only issue during stay was the cleaning could've been better prior to our arrival. Thank you Leigh for sharing your home!

So glad I stumbled upon Two Salty Dogs. The house was very clean, well equipped, and has all of the amenities that you need for an awesome beach vacation. Everything in the home is brand new and modern. The neighborhood is very quiet and located within walking distance to the beach. We loved spending time on the deck and enjoying the beach breeze. We really liked the notebook that had menus from a variety of local restaurants as well as activities in the area. Check-in was easy and Leigh was incredibly helpful and answered any questions that we had quickly. I am already planning a trip to come back!

Leigh and Adam were the best hosts ever!!!! Awesome place and everything we needed was taken care of!!! Best honeymoon one could hope for!!! Much love and God's blessings to you both!!!

The house is stunning and very up to date inside! Couch is super comfy as well as the beds! We loved the herd wood floors and the huge sink lol. Really everything about the house was great! I loved sitting in the hammock or on the porch listening to the rain. Our doggies and kiddos were comfy and safe too. We will be back asap!! Thanks for being great hosts and being available for anything we needed!! Xo Bett and fam

So pleased we found Two Salty Dogs during our vacation search on Oak Island, Nc. The house was beautiful and very modern, with the perfect mix of comfort and class. The owners were very accommodating and easy to communicate with. They made every effort to make our stay enjoyable and worry free. The house had ample parking and was within walking distance to both the beach and the Intercostal waterway. It was also located close to the new Oak Island bridge which made it a quick drive to Lowes foods, Surf cinema, and Southport. Look forward to staying here for future vacations on beautiful Oak Island, NC!

We had a lovely time at Two Salty Dogs. The house was very nice and spacious, more so than we expected. Leigh was a great host and very responsive. A great deck and hammocks underneath which we particularly enjoyed. Would love to stay here again!

Great location. Close enough to bike to the beach. Recommend driving down the island to the south and enjoying the calmer waters. Accessing restaurants and stores made the stay a breeze. Neighbors are friendly and offer great recommendations to the island.

This house was amazing. My friends and I loved it. It came with all the amenities we needed and it was adorable. The only thing we felt we were missing was an outdoor shower. Other than that it was basically perfect.

Outstanding accommodations! Traci's lovely house will make your vacation the best it can be. Sparking clean, modern, ranch style house, quiet neighborhood, great location, and a gracious host. What more can you ask for? If we're ever down that way again, we'll definitely stay with Traci. 5 stars in every category.

Traci's location is great in that it's close enough to the ocean that you can easily walk to the beach, yet removed from the crowd so that evenings are relaxing. The walk to the beach is quick, maybe 10-15 minutes, and it takes you along a lovely wooden walkway that crosses a canal where you can observe snowy egrets and fiddler crabs. You can also drive quickly to the many beach access points, as there are plenty of parking spaces. Also walkable from Traci's place is a public park along the Intercoastal Waterway where you can observe boats gliding by from a shady gazebo. The room is thoughtfully equipped, the bed is very comfortable, and the bathroom is large and eclectically furnished (vessel sink, sunflower shower head in the shower stall). There's even an outdoor shower in her backyard! Traci is very welcoming and informative about the local scene. She makes everything about your stay easy. Her two cats are delightful! A perfect retreat!

The host canceled this reservation 6 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

This is a wonderful place to stay. 7 minutes to the beach and you come back to a great house with a very fine host who just wants you to enjoy your stay. The house is immaculate and well located. I look forward to returning to stay here again.

Great cottage, cute kitties and wonderful friendly host. She spent more time than I had hoped for telling us about Oak Island and the surrounding area. Such a nice place with an equally nice host!

Owner went way above and beyond to work with me and accommodate my quirky schedule. The reservation and check in process was very smooth. Home was in a great location; was well equipped, clean and comfortable! Will definitely stay there again!

This is a lovely property that is as billed. Nicely decorated, you'll enjoy your time in the house as much as your time on the wonderful beaches of oak island. The owners restaurant suggestions were right on.

This home is very inviting, neat and clean and located in a quiet neighborhood close to shops and the beach. We would love to stay there again.

This house is adorable. Beautifully decorated. Great location close to restaurants, shopping, beach accesses and lots of ice cream. Nice, quiet neighborhood. You can walk for miles. Everyone is so friendly. Oak Island is beautiful and family friendly.

This was a fantastic find. We absolutely love Oak Island and this was the perfect place for our getaway. Check in and check our were simple, the house was clean and nicely decorated, and the location was fantastic. It's convenient to town and right by our favorite breakfast spot. Very happy with our stay!

Great house. Would definitely rent again.

Great time

This is a great place for a Family to get to the beach or anywhere else you want to go in OKI!

Paula is a very kind and generous host, by far the best Airbnb host we have ever had! She went above and beyond with all of the fantastic cooking, cleaning, and making sure we and our two dogs felt welcome. Owen and Olive are very smart, independent dogs who got along great with our dogs. The saltwater pool was refreshing and the house - spotless. We did not have to lift a finger and felt super relaxed the whole time. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality, Paula. We loved it!

If you are thinking about staying anywhere besides Owen and Olive's you are making a huge mistake. Everything about this place is wonderful. Owen and Olive (they are two tiny dogs) are cute, playful, well behaved, and enjoy scratches, but will leave you alone as soon as they are called. Paula is the greatest. Hands down I have never received such extraordinary service and help from any host at any hotel, B&B, Airbnb, or even from my own family. She went out of her way to help us in any way possible. advice on the local area, she had it. Where to eat, where to play, she new the right answer. Her cooking is wonderful and she is so very kind. Paula's blurb on her home page says that her place is a little pricey compared to elsewhere but that just isn't true. She is undercharging for all that she does for her guests. If you are lucky enough to find an opening in her schedule you NEED to book a stay. You will not regret it I'm anyway!

Paula really puts the 2nd B in BnB! Her food and beverage offerings were such an amazing perk. Her culinary knowledge of the local restaurant scene was super accurate and I am certain her gourmet breakfast offerings were better than anything on the island! Her little fur babies are cute and lively house occupants and her small backyard pool was a perfect little oasis. Great stay on Oak Island. Thanks.

Phenomenal service. Far exceeded our expectations and will recommend to friends.

Aus der zweiten wir ankamen, begrüßte Ramona uns mit offenen Armen und haben unseren Aufenthalt so angenehm wie möglich. Das Haus und die Königin Schlafzimmer waren wunderschön. Oak Island und Southport angeboten viel Entspannung und zu erkunden, vor allem in der Innenstadt von Southport. Ramona sogar kleine Kuchen bereitgestellt mein 23. Geburtstag feiern, während bei ihr zu Hause zu helfen. Ich empfehle hier zu bleiben, Sie werden es nicht bereuen. Wir kommen wieder auf jeden Fall!

Wonderful place to stay, beautiful and comfortable home!

This was our first time using Airbnb and we were a little hesitant but decided to go for it and we are glad we did. The room was set up so nicely and the restaurant suggestions that were left on the desk worked perfectly. We were pleasantly surprised when we received an email in the morning about breakfast treats and drinks that were in the fridge and common area. Everything was thought of to make us feel at home and comfortable! We are counting down the days until we can return and we definitely recommend Ramona's place!

Ramona & Ronnie are the perfect hosts! My husband & I needed a little bit of alone time by the water very spur of the moment and we were so delighted @ where we chose to stay. We were welcomed as if we had known them all our lives! Great conversation, beautiful home with an amazing view! The pictures do not do enough justice for what we received from this weekend trip! You must stay here! What a wonderful & beautiful place to go when you just need to escape, recharge or just reconnect. We will definitely be back & hopefully soon!

Ramona is an excellent host. We had a really nice stay at Ramona's place, our bed was super comfortable. Our hosts were very friendly, although we barely saw them while we were there since we were out wandering the town all day!What a nice spot! I totally recommend staying here.

My stay with Ramona was exquisite! I took a spur of the moment trip to the beach by myself and found this listing. I was a little nervous about traveling and vacationing by myself but Ramona made me feel right at home by greeting me with a hug the second I arrived! My room was beautiful and very clean and organized. It was such a wonderful weekend staying at Ramona and Ronnie's house. I felt right at home even being away from my own! I will absolutely be staying at this house many more times in my near future!

Ramona was so friendly, very accommodating, and really a wonderful host. The location is great. The house was beautiful, the bed very comfortable. Had a fantastic weekend, thanks so much!

Ramona was a great host, very accommondating, plenty of towels, very comfortable bed and beautiful house! The view was (URL HIDDEN) nice to wake up and smell the salt air and watch the waves roll in and glisten right from the front pourch.

The Cottage was perfect. We were a bit worried that the pictures would not be an accurate depiction of the cottage but we are so pleased that the cottage is as beautiful in real life as it is in the photos. The linens were delivered clean and waiting for us when we arrived. Each bathroom and the outdoor shower (which is key for removing beach sand) had shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and toilet paper for our use. The water pressure was GREAT and the kitchen had everything we needed. The full size refrigerator was super useful and the ice came in perfect for our cooler on beach trips. We cooked every meal, we used the stovetop, oven, and microwave with no problems at all. The cottage even had different color sandwich bags for our children to choose from for their beach lunches! We walked to the beach in minutes (the drive took us "39 Mississippi's according to our 5-year old!). The beach was never crowded, the water was never cold, and the sun was always shining. Don't forget to check-out the shed in the back yard. Bicycles, a beach cart, beach chairs etc… We had a wonderful time on our first ever AirBnB vacation rental. We will visit the cottage again and highly recommend it for singles, couples and families.

This was a great space for a family close to the beach and shops. We had 6 in our party and where comfortable. The house was well stocked with most every thing you would need. Cost was reasonable I would highly recommend Catchlight Cottage and would stay there again.

The house was so clean! The grill works great, and I loved the outside shower!

Catchlight was perfect for our family! We enjoyed every minute! Everything is exactly as it is advertised. Very clean and beautifully decorated. The outdoor shower is great after a long day at the beach. The IKEA beds were super comfortable. And the linen service is awesome. I've always had to wash the sheets and towels before leaving rental houses. Just leaving them in the bag was great! And the best part ... you're like 2 minutes from the beach! Highly recommend this house!!

Catchlight Cottage was the perfect getaway for our summer beach trip. Spacious and bright, it was the perfect base camp for our beach adventures. The bedrooms were large and the beds were all supremely comfortable. Our favorite spot was the screened-in back porch- the perfect place to have dinner or play a game after the kids are in bed. With a 17 month old, we opted to drive to the beach rather than walk (2 minutes), but the walk was short (maybe 5-8 minutes) for those with no kids or older children. Groceries were less than 5 minutes away and the restaurant choices were perfect for any taste at any price point. Gray checked in with us at the beginning of our stay and called to see how our visit was at the end. Gracious and helpful, Gray was the perfect hostess. We hope to visit again for our next beach trip.

From the moment we walked through the door, we felt like we were home. Gray put so much thought into all the little details - water bowls for the pups, soft rugs beside the bed, keyless locks, linen service, Netflix - that all we had to worry about was how to have fun, and Gray even had a guide for that! We will definitely be back for our next beach escape!

Catchlight is a restful, comfortable cottage with great indoor and outdoor space for the beach! The owners have created such a welcoming interior space, with color and artistic flair. The outdoor shower is great! We like to buy fresh seafood, and Gray recommended a nearby seafood market. Good kitchen set up for cooking and grilling! It's an easy, direct walk to the beach, but you have to cross a very busy street to get there, not ideal when carrying your stuff. Overall, this is a wonderful cottage to rent. Gray made sure that everything was perfect!

Gray and Ken's home couldn't have been more perfect for our honeymoon. Their home is beautiful and in very close proximity to the beach and Intercoastal Waterway. They had everything that we could need including toiletries which was so thoughtful! My husband and I borrowed their bikes to ride along the ICW and saw lots of wildlife. And the fact that we could bring our pups along was a huge plus. They even had amenities for our little fur babies! Thank you so so much Gray and Ken! We will definitely be back!

Paula ist ein großer Kommunikator. Ihr Platz ist cutesy Früchte, sauber mit allem, was wir brauchten. Es war die perfekte Größe für mich und meinen Mann. Toller Ort zum Spazierengehen Strand ist nicht weit mit dem Auto und es gibt viele öffentliche Zugangsbereiche. Danke, Paula! Wir hatten Spaß!

Perfekter kleiner Fleck, um der Hektik des Alltags zu entfliehen. Günstig gelegen in der Nähe von Hauptstraßen für Radtouren. Schöner Strand trifft Landgefühl. Paulas Auge für alle Spritzer der Farbe waren perfekt für die Hütte!

Dieses Haus ist sehr gut ausgestattet und wie beworben. Die bunten Berührungen, die Stranddekorationen und die Lage waren perfekt. Die Nachbarschaft ist ruhig und das Haus ist nur wenige Minuten (mit dem Auto) zum fabelhaften Strand. Paula war sehr schnell auf irgendwelche Fragen zu antworten, die ich hatte und die eingezäunten Hinterhof machte es einfach für die Kinder zu gehen und spielen. Vielen Dank für das Teilen eines wunderbaren Hauses.

Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt in Paula's sehr genossen. Es war gemütlich, sauber und sehr entspannend. Paula war super hilfsbereit und immer sehr aufmerksam, wenn wir Fragen hatten. Es war eine kurze Fahrt zum Strand, aber das war kein Problem, denn wir fanden immer einen Platz, um am Strand zu parken. Wir liebten unsere Strandreise nach Oak Island, wir kommen wieder!

Adorable little home close to everything you could possibly want to do or see. Paula was a wonderful and attentive host. Can't wait to come back.

Great spot to relax. Short drive to the beach. Short walk to the intercoastal. Paula is a generous and conscientious host!

awesome lil house everything you need Mrs. paula had it great place. will rent again . I give it tumbs up

My husband and I stayed at Paula's for a long weekend. The location was great, just a short drive to the beach and restaurants, the house was adorable and clean, and the neighborhood was awesome for a nice walk every evening. We hope to return some day soon.

Susan was a gracious and accommodating host! The apartment was extremely clean and equipped with everything we needed for our week stay and so much more. Susan was very thoughtful and provided bath towels, sheets, beach towels, K-cups and even let us use beach chairs and their umbrella. We loved our stay here, the walk to the beach took less than 2 minutes and we loved being able to walk to dinner or take a short drive to eat at some amazing restaurants. We also loved that the place is dog friendly! We would 100% recommend staying here to anyone we know!

My husband and I stayed @ Susan's place a few weeks ago and loved it! It was exactly what we were looking for. We were traveling with other family and friends so we knew we would be spending lots of time at their place. We just wanted our own space where we could stay with our lab (Molly). The accommodations were so lovely and extremely clean. She offered lots of nice touches such as a few bottles of water when we arrived and coffee for our keurig with cream and sugar for the next morning. This was very important b/c we arrived late and didn't have a chance to get to the grocery store. The dispenser in the shower has soap, shower gel, along with shampoo and conditioner. There were even beach chairs and umbrellas set out for us to use. Thank you Susan and Scott for a wonderful week at Oak Island. We will definitely be back!

We stayed here for 3 weeks while my husband worked. We were very familiar with the neighborhood and were excited to find a last-minute space available in busy July. We brought our beach wagon which I pulled out to the beach just about everyday. It is just a couple of minutes walk to the beach and, in fact, before you pull into their driveway, you can get a clear glimpse of the ocean! The kitchen is well equipped with everything very clean. The bathroom is also clean. If you are really big or tall, you will have a hard time in the bathroom especially with the shower. This guest area is built over their garage and they did an amazing job designing this adorable space; but, it's small. Also, the air conditioning in the bedroom is a window unit. Once I got used to the sound, I was OK. You can enjoy walking to dinner at the Flying Fish Cafe which overlooks the ocean. We have eaten here for 4 years and it is our favorite as their shrimp basket is the BEST. If you want a little night life, you can also walk to The Lazy Turtle. I would also recommend for a special dinner making reservations at Mr Pi's Bistro in Southport. Best food around. Be sure to visit the Southport outdoor market overlooking the Cape Fear River every Wednesday from 8 am to 1 during the summer. Unique gifts and food. Also, enjoyed doing my one hour walk every morning in their neighborhood which is quiet and safe. Susan and Scotty are wonderful owners of this cute place and make you feel very welcome.

This truly is the "Perfect Little Beach Cottage"! We stayed for a long weekend and had a wonderful time. The cottage had everything we needed. It is a short drive to the beach and to Southport, though are are many mom and pop type restaurants and shops on the island. We will keep this house in mind for future beach trips! Definitely recommend!

What a wonderful getaway cottage! Jude's house was close to the beach (only a few streets over), incredibly clean, well-outfitted, and had all of the amenities that you would need. The neighborhood is super quiet, and there's also an incredibly helpful binder full of brochures and info on local activities and restaurants. We loved how everything in the house seemed so thoughtfully curated - need to know the wifi password or directions on how to use things? Don't worry, it's all written out! Forgot your soap? Look in the drawer! Does the room seem to dark? It's okay, just turn on that extra lamp in the corner! I know it seems kind of weird to talk about these random-seeming necessities, but I've stayed in other Airbnb's where these things haven't been available, and so I appreciated that these things were available. I think Jude was on vacation when we were at the cottage, but she was still super responsive to any questions I had via text, and that was appreciated as well. I loved the house, loved the area, and am looking forward to coming back again!

Ein Urlaub im 'Perfect Little Beach Cottage' in Oak Island ist genau das, was meine Familie brauchte, nach einem extrem kalten und schneereichen Winter in Michigan. Der Hinterhof ist meist Sand, begleitet von ein paar Schaufeln und Eimern, die perfekt für unsere zwei kleinen Mädchen war, während meine Frau und ich in der abgeschirmten Veranda entspannt. Das Haus ist sehr sauber, einladend und bestückt mit jedem Gericht / Appliance, die Sie in der Küche benötigen. Wir haben die meiste Zeit am Strand, der nur ein paar Minuten mit dem Auto. Jude bietet Ihnen eine Liste von Restaurants und Sehenswürdigkeiten in der Region als auch, was sehr hilfreich für unser 1. Mal Besuch in der Gegend war. Wir waren sehr glücklich, als Jude unser Gastgeber und ermöglicht es uns, zu bleiben ... kann nicht erwarten, wieder zu gehen.

Our time in "Perfect Little Beach Cottage" was just after the eventful days in NYC and Washington DC just a dream. The cottage was the same as previously described by Jew. We had before our arrival nor contact via e-mail and thus have the exact description and yet sufficient additional information to get around. The neighborhood was very quiet and there were 4 days in our own little oasis. The beach is not far away and is the perfect place to relax. The cottage was clean and our stay we liked it very well. Thank you for the beautiful days!

Jude was completely organized and friendly --- lots of information about the Oak Island area to insure that our visit was a good one. The house is super tidy and comfortable --- in fact looking nearly brand new. We had a most relaxing time in the area; wonderful beaches nearby, a quiet, peaceful neighborhood, great walking along the intercoastal waterway, exploring the town of Southport, taking ferries to two great offshore islands. Perfect Little Beach Cottage indeed.

Die Hütte war schön. Alles war sauber, ordentlich und gut für uns bereit. Es fühlte sich wie zu Hause. Jude war sehr gastfreundlich. Ich würde empfehlen, hier zu bleiben, wenn jemand nach North Carolina besuchen möchte. Nochmals vielen Dank Jude

Es war ein wunderschöner Ort und Jude und Stefan, wo mehr als zuvorkommend. Ich empfehle bei Judes und Stefans hoch Hütte perfekte kleine Strand zu bleiben.

Great place to stay if you din't mind driving a bit to the beach. Jude was a helpful host and her home is immaculate and restful. The screened porch is a haven.

We had a nice stay at the American Dream Cottage, cute neighborhood, near to the Food Lion and the beach, with a short 10 min walk to the beach across the wooden causeway.

We had a great time at Hope's cottage! The house was completely what you'd expect from the listing - comfy, convenient, no-frills but with all the necessities. My favorite part of the house was the outdoor shower. It was super spacious and refreshing after a long day at the beach.

We really enjoyed our stay in Hope's cottage. It was very cozy, clean, and quiet. We loved the relaxed atmosphere of Oak Island and the 10 min. walk to the beach was nice and not too difficult. It had everything we needed for our short stay such as the grill and outdoor showers. Would definitely recommend!

We enjoyed our stay, the weather was the best and the ocean was absolutely fabulous. The trip to the ocean was a little further away then we anticipated. The cabin was fine for our needs, but the appliances were dated and barely serviceable. It appeared that no one had been there for awhile as the yard, deck, and front porch were covered in debris, probable the result of a prior storm.

We enjoyed our stay at Hope's American Dream Cottage. Her detailed notes and recommendations really assisted us while spending just two nights in Oak Island. We also enjoyed the walk across the inter coastal waterway to the beautiful beach. Highly recommend catching a sunrise from the beach!

Beautiful house and great location

Really nice clean family home. Perfect for a beach getaway.

Hope maintained regular contact via text, and I felt that was readily available if we needed her. The neighborhood was quiet and very pleasant.

We had a great week at Bottom's Up!

Bottoms up is a great salty beach cottage full of character. It is in a great location, close to the beach. The deck is great to hang out on, you can hear the ocean, but you can't see it. The outdoor shower and hose downstairs is convenient for washing off after a beach day. The house has everything you need to have a great time.

I can't say enough nice things about Amy, she is a gracious and wonderful host! Her home is comfortable, modern and very clean. Great location, minutes to the beach and good restaurants. An added bonus is her cute welcoming committee (4 little pugs). I would highly recommend as my husband and I had a great experience.

séjour fabuleux !!! Amy le plus gracieux hôte. Il y avait accès à la cuisine, vélos voiturette de golf. Quartier calme. Et aimé ses carlins !! Sera va de retour bientôt. Recommande fortement.

Perfectly peaceful! I booked at the last minute for a quiet little getaway, and Amy's place was as perfect as the pictures. She was a gracious hostess, and the pugs were delightful little friends. Amy's home is really close to the beach, and Oak Island is just right for a relaxing vacation at the shore. It was my first Airbnb experience, and I will definitely be going back!

This was my very first AirBnB experience and it was wonderful. I couldn't have asked for a better host, Amy was very welcoming and accommodating. She created a relaxing and comforting atmosphere for a guest in her home. Also her dogs were great company for me, as I'm a dog lover and owner as well. I enjoyed staying there and look forward to staying again in the future!

Our stay at Amy's was excellent. She was an extremely accommodating host, and the location was excellent--walking distance to the beach and many shops and restaurants. We especially loved all the beautiful outdoor spaces at her house. Would definitely come back again!

Driving up to Amy's house you get to see a beautiful home from the oitside already. You're being greeted by her very friendly pugs :-) Amy is very kind, friendly, welcoming, caring and easy to talk to. Communicating before I got zhere and when I was there was easy and uncomplicated. The inside of the house is amazing and very comfy and homey. The room and the bathroom is exactly what it looks like on the pictures. The neighbourhood is quiet and I felt safe. And it's not far from the beach at all, that was one of my favourite parts enev though I was there 'off-season'. So if you wanna go relax on the beach or explore Southport (which is aboug 15min from there) - it's an amazing place to stay and I would go back anytime!

Nous avons réservé la chambre une heure à l'avance qui n'a pas été un problème pour Amy. Amy son fils et les chiens :) faites-vous nous nous sommes sentis à la maison et nous a aidé avec notre linge. Je recommande vivement de séjourner ici, comme nous aimerions rester ici encore à.

Amy est l'hôte le plus incroyable que je l'ai jamais vu. Elle a fait tout ce qu'elle peut pour me faire sentir à la maison. Sa maison est très proche de la plage, pas plus de 2 minutes en voiture, 10 minutes à pied. Il y avait un grand espace de stationnement à la maison ainsi que d'un libre places de stationnement à la plage. La maison est très agréable et la chambre était encore mieux que les images. Amy m'a aidé avec tout ce qu'elle peut pour faire mon voyage très bon. Elle connaît très bien la région, et elle m'a donné une orientation claire pour un très bons restaurants. Je lui recommande vivement et je souhaite qu'il y est plus de cinq étoiles que je peux lui donner. Je vais certainement y retourner pour mon prochain séjour.

This was my first Airbnb experience and Tammy was a terrific host and was always responsive and available for questions before and during the rental dates. The house was tremendous. It was spotless and was exactly how it was described.

Tammy is a great host! Anytime we had a question about something to do she was very quick with a response. Definitely recommend this airbnb for a nice getaway. Just a walk away from the beach, which was fantastic!!

I can say without a doubt that this was the best airbnb we have stayed at. Hands down. From the Excellent communication of the host to the cleanliness of the cozy home. It was fully stocked for the beach with umbrellas, coolers, chairs and towels. There was even basic foods in the cupboards and fridge. It was close to the beach and Tammy is so friendly and easy to work with! We will be back!

Tammy's place was great. Very clean and had everything I needed. The beach was a comfortable walk away, and there are plenty of shops and restaurants just a short drive down the street.

Great weekend getaway! We will be back :)

The house was beautiful and Tammy was an excellent host! She provided us everything we would need in the home and we enjoyed all of the local recommendations she gave us. The house is an easy walk to the beach and Tammy provided a beach cart, an umbrella and chairs which made our walks to the beach even better! I would highly recommend staying in this home!

Fantastic stay for our first family vacation with our 9 month old! Tammy was nice enough to provide an umbrella, beach chairs, and even a stroller for the beach! She was a terrific host and very responsive which was especially helpful when we (stupidly) locked ourselves out of the house. The place is very spacious and provided plenty of room for our little one to roam around. We drove to the beach every day, which has free parking. The beach is also a walkable distance if you don't have a lot of things to carry. She even let us check in early as it worked out better for us! Would consider returning in the future!

Liz provided all of the essentials we would need for our stay at the beach. The neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful. The space was comfortable and perfect for two. Loved the privacy of the backyard!

The studio was a great way to explore Oak Island and take our dog to Caswell beach. The fenced yard was a big plus. The only thing I would change is to have an outdoor spicket to rinse the sand off of Amos. Otherwise it was great and we hope to return. Thank you!

Perfect quiet little get-away place conveniently located to beach and town! Liz was extremely quick to respond and very helpful when I txt her about my arrival and some additional questions I had after I arrived. I would definitely consider going here again if I need a few days to entirely go off-grid (though there is wifi, to not feel totally cut off ;-)! Also am so glad she allows pets...the fenced in yard is definitely perfect for that...and she even has specially designated dog towels, water bowls & more available, in case you forgot to bring your own! Very thoughtful!

For the price per night, keep your expectations at a low level. The beach is about a 20 minute walk from the unit. As for the unit's actual amenities, bring your own toilet paper (we were only provided 1.25 rolls for a 3 night stay), use your own cooler to actually cool your items (the refrigerator won't cool your items), and bring bug spray to repel insects inside the unit (worms, spiders). Given that the unit is attached to a larger house, you'll also smell what is cooking from that kitchen. The pros are: the A/C unit works beautifully, there are towels and a coffee maker provided, there is a fenced in yard for your pet, and the owner--Liz--is responsive. Again, if you keep your expectations equal to the price per night, then you'll have a pleasant experience.

Studio by the Shore was fantastic for me and my little dogs! The yard and screened porch were amazing, and it was so great to be so close to the beach. The studio itself was cute, cool, clean, perfectly suited for me and all I needed. Liz was super helpful and responsive and I'd love to come back and stay here again next year.

If you have a poetic soul, Liz's 'Studio by the Shore' is the most exquisite retreat that I still pinch myself to have discovered. Very much looking forward to my next visit!

Great studio, perfect for 1 or for 2 who don't mind sharing a bed. Liz is great and very prompt. The place is either an 8 min walk to the beach or a very short drive. The mini fridge and the microwave are handy and there are all the dishes/accessories you'd need. Finally, there's a covered screen porch great for playing cards or having a drink in the evenings.

Darling cottage, super clean and comfortable. It was a very short stay so I wasn't able to take advantage of the area, but it was a great alternative to staying at a chain hotel!

It was a short weekend trip and we really enjoyed our trip and our stay at Joy's place. I personally really love her place. The house is beautiful, clean and very comfy. We love every detail in the house. Everything we need is in the house. The location is perfect. We can even walk to the beach and the nearby Food Lion and restaurants. Very convenient. The neighborhood is very quiet too. We will definitely return and will recommend the place to our friends and family. We really had a great time! Thank you!

We found the beach cottage to be very homey and comfortable and as the pictures depicted. The location was good with an easy stroll to the beach and restaurants. Joy was responsive to any questions we had and there were cute touches around the house.

Cute house with large kitchen and plenty of room. Loved the deck and outdoor shower. Close to shops, grocery store and beach access!

Very nice house. Comfortable, peaceful, clean, quaint, and the sitting room was very welcoming. Close enough to the beach to walk if you wanted to. Nice quiet neighborhood. Wonderful house and Joy was great to work with. Friendly and responds right away.

The house had everything that we could have needed!

Great house very comfortable and a great deal very close to all the activities on the island! Very nice for a long weekend or an entire week at Oak Island!

Joy's house was so very sweet and perfect for our family! We loved the charm of the place and it was very very clean! We would stay there again definitely.

Great location. Perfect size for a couple or small family. Joy was easy to work with also.
