Cheerful dog-friendly home with kitchen, balcony, patio, & W/D - close to beach
Find some much-needed rest and relaxation at this North Carolina vacation home - spacious enough for large groups and boasting every comfort of home! Placed conveniently by the gorgeous beach of Oak Island, you'll be close to Oak Island Pier where you can take a lovely stroll along the boardwalk as you listen to the sounds of the seagulls and the waves crashing below. Enjoy a fun-filled day out in the sun on the sandy shores with your family as you read a good book under the shade of an umbrella. Go on a shopping spree at the stores of Southport, then ride the ferry to Bald Head Island for some more exquisite dining opportunities.
If you're a fan of golf, look no further than the plethora of courses within driving distance, such as the Oak Island Golf Club, The Lakes Country Club, and the Carolina National Golf Club. You'll also be perfectly placed right in between the Intracoastal boat launch and the beach. If you and your friends end up getting hungry, you'll be happy to know that several notable restaurants/eateries are close by and awaiting your enjoyment!
Inside your home away from home, you'll be in awe of this blue abode's interior decor. Whip up something delectable for you and your guests in the kitchen using modern appliances, then settle down in the living area to kick back and relax. Afterward, recline on the balcony area with your friends and partake in a refreshing beverage as you breathe in that cool and crisp air. There are Adirondack chairs, a gas grill, and a firepit placed outside in the fenced backyard area for your convenience. As the evening rolls around, head back inside and sink into the couch for a movie marathon. Toss some popcorn in the microwave, get cozy on the couch, and stream your favorite flicks late into the night!

great place… with a few small issues
This is a great property and we would stay again. There are some obvious wear and tear issues but mostly everything worked well. The pool and elevator were great! The A/C works great (almost too good)

Some tv remotes missing, pool furniture rusted and/ or broken, no outdoor shower head on shower, deck screws need resetting. Bedroom carpet needs attention. Whole house needs some cosmetic updates. Second time staying so it was evident of the differences. Had a great time with family overall!

Helpful pros and cons
This review is intended to be helpful and is in no way to be considered angry or malicious. I only wish to convey pros and cons of our stay as helpful feedback.
Pros: nice size pool, well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, well priced, quiet street, great to have 4 king beds. good variety of baths (walk-in and tub/showers), appreciate the suitcase stands in each room, very nice size dining table, great availability of TVs, enjoyed the pool table.
Cons or areas of improvement: pool furniture is in need of replacement (rusted out frames, torn upholstery), 2nd floor center sliding door will open but does not close well (has to be lifted up and pulled strongly), would like shades/blinds on the kitchen and living room windows, would be much nicer with dimmer switches on the lights in the living room and kitchens, the grill is in desperate need of replacement (stand is collapsing).
