Great value for the money! Place was perfect. Kids enjoyed fishing and using the crab traps. They caught/released crab, shrimp, and flounder. Great views both morning and sunset from the dock. Short walk to the beach and walking distance to a convenience store. Appreciated the welcome snacks and note. Will be coming back!

Very clean interior. Lots of places to sit and enjoy the waterway in the backyard. Can easily put in your own kayaks off the floating dock. We didn’t have a boat but we sat on the dock each night to watch the sunset and look at the stars. Easy walk to the beach. Very quiet property. They even had a little care package of snacks and a card waiting for us! Would definitely stay here again!

Two Thumbs Up!

Moonshine Creek was exactly as expected....and then some! The owners have done a really nice job of creating a vacation spot that is peaceful and tidy. What else do you need?? Upon checking in late in the evening, the WiFi would not work but it was quickly resolved after a text message to the property owners. We'll certainly be back again!

First Vacay to Oak Island

This property was a perfect location for the two of us. We loved fishing and sitting on the property's private dock in the early morning and evening. We walked (10 Min.) to the beach. If you can take a bike or beach wagon, those items would be helpful in getting you to the beach and back a bit faster. There are pay to park areas throughout the island. It's DEFINITELY worth the 6 mile drive to THE POINT on the west end of the island. Go early for parking and pay electronically. The property was CLEAN and had everything we needed. Communication with owner was quick and helpful. Easy check in!! Nice, quiet neighborhood. We hope to return again.
