Wonderful house. Clean and well stocked with spices, tea, etc. Would have rated a 5 if the grill had been working. Otherwise, LOVED the house.

This cozy little cottage was the perfect getaway. To start the host makes a wonderful impression as soon as you book by being so friendly, and quick to answer any questions you may have. They also made it known that they are there for you, and willing to help in any way during your stay. I have rented houses through VRBO numerous times and have never had such a friendly, helpful host. The house is a charming little cottage where you can relax and feel comfortable. It was well stocked and clean and perfect for our group. The location is close to shops and restaurants and just a short drive to Southport. My dog loved the fenced in back yard that was the perfect size for him to get outside and run around. I will definitely add this house to my favorites!

Great home if traveling with your dog. Fenced yard and close to beach access (although you do have to cross a street that can have heavy traffic at certain times of day). Clean and comfortable accommodations. Well-stocked kitchen. Very convenient location, close to many local restaurants and area grocery stores.

Lovely cottage close to beach access and restaurants. Very clean and the kitchen had everything you need. Appreciated the prompt friendly communication w the owner. Our dog loved the yard and deck. If you love a sunrise or sunset it was really easy to head to the beach from the house. We will definitely stay here next visit to OKI!
