Classic Beachfront House w/Private Patio, Washer/Dryer, Free WiFi, Central AC

We enjoyed the hammock, swing bed and all of the Adirondack chairs downstairs next to the water. This home is clean, decorated nicely and has some great amenities!

This house was absolutely amazing. The host has thought of almost anything that’s needed. Starting with the outside, the house and community are well kept. Palm trees everywhere, yards well kept. The outside furniture was very nice and comfortable, it included a hammock, an outside swinging bed, many chairs, and high captains chairs on the upstairs deck. The house had a lagoon with a fountain in back. We enjoyed watching fish jump and turtles swim in it. The inside was very comfortable. The beds were great and so was the couch so relaxing inside was easy as well. The kitchen had everything necessary to cook at the house if that’s what you wanted to do. Very nice pots and pans, storage containers, a great coffee pot and a wonderful blender. The amenities aside, I was surprised to find things in the house that were there, left from previous renters or from the owners, that were so nice to have. Many common spices, flour, sugar, ketchup, mustard, mayo, some eggs etc. The bathrooms had shampoo and conditioner, shower gel, lotions. I realize that none of these things are a constant from an availability standpoint, but seeing these items not go to waste, paying it forward and helping the next vacationers was so great to see. They had many needed items like beach chairs, skim board, beach umbrella, beach games, corn hole and a bonus- a shibumi shade. This beach only permits shibumis and beach umbrellas- no canopies. The week we were there was exceptionally hot and the shibumi (which I did not want to personally invest in) was a life saver. The only thing that I can see as an improvement is more than likely out of the control of the owner- the community pools do not have any chairs or loungers. It was uncomfortable to sit on a beach chair at the pool. The pool was immaculate and well kept, I just think chairs would be an excellent addition. Also if you’ve never been to Ocean isle- consider renting a golf cart. After we got there and saw the convenience of them, we wish we would have had one and there were not available to rent at that late date. Many thanks to the owners for such a well thought out rental!!!!

This house and location are perfect!! We enjoy OIB because it’s family friendly and lower key. We had a great family vacation and can’t wait to come back again next year!

We have been in this house 5 out of the past 7 years. The location is amazing. No houses to your left, room to the house on the right. Perfect beach. The inside is very dated, no TV in the bedrooms. This was alway ok, because this house has always been a deal for 4 bedrooms and 4 baths. When looking to book for next year it's 1k more for the week. For the price now, we will likely not be coming back unless the update things. I understand everything goes up, but so do expectations. Overall it's still a nice vacation spot. Just watch out for the friendly island Palmetto bugs at night. They will fight you for your pizza.
