As your host, we are committed to exceeding your expectation for an enjoyable stay in lovely Oak Island. We are very responsive and always available to help with any questions or issues that may arise.



Oak Island is a low-key place to relax and enjoy time away from the hustle and bustle. The neighborhood is quiet, and just three blocks to direct beach access. Most of the homes in the area are full-time residents, and everyone here is very welcoming and friendly!



We are just 15 minute drive from historic Southport, where "Safe Haven" and other films were based.



There are multiple ocean-front restaurants on the island, and plenty to do, including golf, putt-putt & arcade, skydiving, and more. Go shopping or drop your boat in for a day of fishing at one of the boat launches on the island.



Walking or biking is a great way to get fresh air and a little exercise at the same time. There are lots of restaurants, stores and shopping within a 5-8 minute walk. If you want to explore a little further, driving works well, or call a taxi or an Uber on the island.

The $300 is returned once the cleaning crew confirms there are no damages, and the apartment is in good condition.)

- Renters that are above the age of 25.

- A maximum of 8 guests per reservation. Extra guests are not allowed.

- We value the relationship with our neighbors and fellow renters, so events/gathering/parties are not to be held by guests. In order to keep the unit in excellent condition for future guests and to respect guests in the downstairs unit, we am firm on these rules. I apologize for this inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.



While we do tend to be a “hands off” host, we will be available via messaging/phone should you need anything.
