Very much enjoyed this location- mattresses were very good ( a lot of places they are awful). Had everything we needed- only problem was we had to go home!
This house will enhance your OIB vacation. The kitchen is well equipped, the furnishings are gorgeous and the neighbors on this quiet street are great.
The property was awesome, as was the location. The listing was accurate and Betsy the property manager could not have been more helpful.The whole experience was very enjoyable and I would 10/10 recommend this property to any family who is looking to enjoy all OIB has to offer.
The location was great! Loved being on the canal and close to a beach access. The TV's didn't work great and kept buffering. It didn't bother me but the kids were annoyed with this in the evening.
Our visit at Betsy's home was fantastic again! It was just what our family needed. The property is the perfect location for families to enjoy the beach and relax away from the hustle and Betsy has included everything you'll need for a week away. We will rent again for sure.
Great house for our group of 6 adults. Wonderful location in a great neighborhood near beach and shops. Betsy was very responsive. Beautifully decorated with lots of â little spacesâ where we could all get away when we wanted. Back porch views of sunset stunning. Well stocked kitchen. We used the kayak daily. Would rent again for sure!
The property was comfy and worked well for our family (kids age 9, 12, 15). Little extras like the soft throw blankets in lots of spots around the house was very nice. The outdoor space â decks, dock and under the house â was lovely and useable throughout the day. We appreciated the large dining table; it allowed us to gather for meals with extended family that was also at OIB that week. Walk to the beach was easy and area around the beach access was never crowded. Betsy responded promptly to messages and provided helpful info.
We so enjoyed our week here! The location couldn't be more perfect being a short walk from the beach and sitting right on the canal. The outdoor space was perfect for our large family, lots of seating for everyone. The only downside was the cleanliness of the property. The rugs in bathrooms and rooms were dirty and the house needed some overall cleaning once we arrived. Other than that the house worked very well for all 8 of us! Thanks for the great week!
Wonderful location, only a few minutes to walk to the beach, great place for families with small children to play. We loved fishing and paddling off the dock.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was beautiful and very comfortable. Betsy was very accommodating and there to answer any questions we had. The outside of the home was also very beautiful with multiple sitting areas, and the outdoor shower was amazing. This home appeared to be better maintained than many of the others we saw on our canal. It was so convenient to be able to dock our boat at the house. If looking for a nice, spacious vacation home that feels like "home away from home" I would highly recommend. We hope to be able to stay there again next year if our week is available.
This home was clean, comfortable, and convenient for our multi-generational family of 6 that stayed for a week. It can easily accommodate a group of 8 just as comfortably. There is easy beach access at the end of Concord St. (about block and a half away). Since we travelled with limited gear, we were glad to find a well-supplied kitchen and were grateful to have use of a few beach chairs and a beach cruiser (bike). For family trips like this I always travel with night lights, but I was pleased to find there were night lights already in place. The house is well designed with space for everyone to spread out both inside and out. There are several outdoor seating areas, and we enjoyed many of our meals on the deck off the kitchen -- looking onto the picturesque canal and facing west toward the sunsets. The loft room is charming and includes its own small deck, but it's worth noting that the stairs to the loft are steep and the head clearance low. The homeowner was friendly and helpful. She promptly answered all my inquiries before and during the trip, and she arranged for our linen rentals, which was a big help.
We really enjoyed our first stay here. The outside living areas were wonderful and there were so many places for folks to relax without being on top of each other, which was important to our college aged kids. The dock is excellent and very well maintained, which made it so much easier for the "older" folks to access, especially at low tide. We also enjoyed the close walk to the beach and the outside shower for rinsing off sand. The house itself has plenty of room: the 3 bedrooms are tastefully furnished and the kitchen has everything you'd need to cook if you desire while you visit. Our kids and their friends enjoyed this visit very much and we hope to come again!
Our family had an amazing time! The house is beautiful and has everything you need. Short walk to the beach and the dock is great for fishing! Great restaurants not far from the home and the ocean isle creamery makes great ice cream. There is a mini golf close also that was a lot of fun! Our family had an amazing time and the owner is very friendly and very fast with communicating with you and answering any questions you have. A great place to stay!
We stayed here during our first visit in NC. This house by far, exceeded my expectations. It was wonderful. Betsy was so great to work with, quick to respond to questions and so friendly. House was clean and so cozy. Has everything you could need to cook, sleep and even entertain with. Such a nice a private set up for multiple families. I loved all the little beach touches and the many decks and seating areas. Very close walk to beach (5mins). Water was warm and beautiful! Renting a golf cart is worth your while. We went to ice cream and beach shops in evenings with no worry of parking. Island has putt-putt, couple restaurants and ice cream and coffee shop. It's really the perfect amount of things to do and choices for the family. We didn't realize you could not use tents on beach (umberellas only) but Betsy had one available. Washer/dryer was so nice and easy to use. The grill was great, fish cleaning station is so useful, as is the outdoor shower!! Such a convienent thing with sandy kids from the beach! There is ample space under house for kids to run and play, blow bubbles, sidewalk chalk and play games! Wish we could have used kayak! She really has such a nice set up and items for you to use, you can't go wrong! My three kids (aged 9mos- 4) and parents loved our time here. I would highly recommend it. Perfect spot for a little vacation. I would definitely go back and rent this home again! Thanks for everything Betsy!!
