About this house rental
Nestled on a private waterfront lot, Heron’s Hideaway has three bedroom, two baths and a backyard that in the evenings lights up like a movie set. This family friendly home is located just a quick bike ride away from the beautiful beaches of Oak Island, restaurants, shopping and groceries. It features a fenced-in yard large enough to keep any pup happy and entertained. Watch the sunset from the fishing pier as you listen to the shrimp jump and the sounds of the tide flowing in and out. Launch kayaks from the floating dock and explore the quiet, serene, wildlife-filled Davis Canal where the blue herons fly overhead. Use the crab pot or cast out a few fishing lines to catch your own dinner - and don’t forget to ring the bell when you make your big catch. Enjoy yourself under the shady oaks of the large backyard. Put an umbrella in your drink and grab a book as you relax on the back deck. Rest on the swing hanging on the crooked oak tree - it is the perfect place to enjoy a cup of hot coffee in the morning as you look out over the canal or stargaze with the fireflies in the evening. Roasting marshmallows over the built in bonfire pit is the perfect end to a relaxing day spent exploring Oak Island. With plenty of room to spread out or get together for a family dinner, this house is truly a great home away from home. Heron's Hideaway is waiting for you!
Special note for boat owners: The dock and floating Roll and Ride shown in the photos can certainly support canoes, kayaks, John-boats and small fishing boats up to 14ft long/8ft wide/2k lbs that can be used in shallow water. Please be advised at low tide the canal can get as shallow as 2-3 feet.
Having said this, there is ample space in the 100ft long driveway to park your boat trailer and drive to one of the many boat launches all over the island. You can quickly be out on the ICW (inter coastal waterway) which gives you water access to the Atlantic Ocean, Lockwood Folly River, Southport or Baldhead Island.
NOTE: As of 4/1/23 from Apr-Sept Oak Island has implemented parking fees, similar to our neighboring beaches, from 9 am-5 pm for all beach parking.
NOTE: there are two security cameras—one in the front yard and one in the back yard.

Beautiful home with a great location. Just as described! Everything we needed both inside and out. The canal was such fun for fishing and kayaking. The home was clean and well stocked. We so appreciated the owners and their great communication. Lovely lights outside for stunning evenings. We will be back!!!

We felt super lucky to enjoy a last minute trip to this impeccable spot! The house is professionally cleaned between guests, located on a quiet street, and has plenty of parking (great for our trailer small sailboat!) We enjoyed the dock on the canal and hardly saw any other neighbors or light pollution. We threw (licensed!) crab traps and easily explored a ton of nearby new favs. We immediately started planning our next trip! Hosts were amazing about coordinating quickly and sorting some booking questions. Would absolutely stay here again— and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a secluded, pet friendly, spacious house for a peaceful Oak Island getaway.
