About this house rental

Ocean Isle Beach has a lot going for it; it's the PERFECT beach and the Seawitch is front row! Situated close to golf courses, outlet malls, musical entertainment, great seafood, and some of the most spectacular sunsets this side of the Mississippi! Come spend a long weekend or summer week in our cozy cottage right on the water where you can sit on the front porch and watch the waves roll in.

This Ocean Front Cottage on OIB is located where the island is the least crowded but the pier, puttputt, shops and restaurants are a short walk away. It is an easy walk to the Friday night concerts in the park.

The 'Seawitch', aptly named, because that is what my grandmother said she looked like as she came up out of the water from a swim, is a beautiful, family oriented, lovingly cared for, cottage style OCEAN FRONT PROPERTY at Ocean Isle Beach, NC.

This five bedroom cottage has two bedrooms with one queen-sized bed each, two bedrooms with one queen and one double bed, and one bedroom with two double beds each for a total capacity of 16 plus a baby bed in one of the rooms. We do not offer linen service, but we recommend that if you want book linens to contact Angie's Linens at Ocean Isle Beach, NC at 910-575-2788. Book early they are only open M-F 8-6. Or cut your price by bringing your own bed linens and towels.

Each year we do renovations or improvements in the spring. We are constantly upgrading and replacing items to make sure that you have a wonderful experience. This year we bought five new hybrid medium firm mattresses and they are comfy. We do take our renters suggestions to heart when planning improvements for the next year, so please make any suggestions in our on site Guest Book. We would love for you to return year after year!

Built in 1979 with the 'old style' beach cottage in mind, the kitchen, dining area and the living room are in the middle and the bedrooms on the sides of the house. The cottage has three bathrooms upstairs, a outside enclosed shower downstairs, and a place to rinse off on the pier.

The real luxury of the house though is the front porch and deck area with its rocking chairs, picnic table, and loungers. Feel the ocean breezes flow over you as your cares slip away. No need to stake your claim by arriving to the beach in the early hours of the morning, as we are on a less crowded area of the beach, so you can just walk off our pier and set up your beach chairs whenever you are ready. Then, once you have had enough sun and fun for the day, run off the beach and straight up to your cottage, take a shower in the outside shower, and sit in a rocking chair until you dry off from your swim. The clothes line is usually seen with towels and bathing suits flapping in the wind.

Make yourself some 'Frogmore Stew', throw it out on some newspapers on the large dining room table and tell the kids to dig in. Hang up some party lights and dance on the deck to some Jimmy Buffett as the sun sets in the distance. This is the cottage to take you back to a simpler time!

This house is well stocked with items that many of the rentals do not include. The kitchen is fully stocked with enough dishes, glasses, silverware, pots, pans, etc. to feed large family. My dad thought he was Emeril so you will find all kinds of gadgets in the kitchen drawers. We also have books, games, and movies scattered around in different drawers/places for you to borrow during your stay.

For all you movie buffs and sports enthusiasts, you can sit in the living room and enjoy movies or sports on the large HDTV complete with BlueRay DVD Player and surround sound. Look out the window and watch the ocean instead of the commercials!

Focus Broadband High Speed Wireless Internet with a MERGE TV app are included. There is a flatscreen TV and Amazon Firestick in every bedroom.

Our family has been so spoiled by this beach house that to go anywhere else is a letdown. The location is perfect, you will feel a stress let down as you cross over the bridge to the island and transition to 'island time'.

Staying at the family friendly OIB is the BEST place to be, but if you long for some night life and outlet shopping, you are only a few minutes away. Myrtle Beach is only 20 - 30 minutes south, and Wilmington 45 minutes north on Hwy 17. Calabash is known for the best seafood in the nation and it is a mere 10 minutes away. If you want to catch a movie, you can head to North Myrtle Beach. Golfers, there are golf courses all around you. Adventurers you can head out to The Swamp Park on Airport Road to go on a guided ATV or Swamp boat tour or even Zip Line. Historic Southport, NC is only 35 minutes away. When we are sunburnt we forgo the beach and catch the Ferry at Southport to Fort Fisher. You will not run out of things to do.

This property was everything the owners said it would be. Perfect for our family. My 2 year old absolutely loved the big deck! The owners were beyond helpful and super nice. By day 2, our whole family agreed we would love to book this house again in the future!

My extended family spent a week at the Seawitch over July 4th. We were 11 total, ages from 2-68. The house had everything we needed for an easy, peaceful week. Kim was very quick in her response with any communication/question I had. We slept SO well on the new beds. We lived on the porch/beach, but were just a 10minute walk to the pier with putt putt, playgrounds, slushies, etc. The house was very clean for middle of the summer, and the children found it especially exciting to have a TV in every room :). This house is a gem, and we will absolutely be booking again! Thank you for opening up your lovely home. We made wonderful memories here!

We really enjoyed our stay. We were lucky to meet the owners who were super friendly. They left the house well stocked with extras. The walk to beach was a little challenging for us with issues. But there was a public access a couple houses down. The owners were trying to make repairs outside as we could tell from the wood pile. I do wish that we could have seen the ocean in front of house but dunes prohibit that. We would return!! Thanks.

The house is very cute and clean. The host decorated for Christmas which was a nice touch. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and flatware with plenty of cookware to make Thanksgiving dinner. The beds were very comfortable too. The house did smell musty when we first got there but after opening the windows it aired out. I would recommend this house - it was great and there was good communication with the host!

Great stay! We liked the place but thought it needed a good cleaning. (Dusty, heat/ac vents very dirty) beds where uncomfortable.

This is our 2nd year staying at this house and we are already counting the days until our next vacation here. The location/view is perfect. Steps from the beach and then the covered deck if you want to get out of the sun, etc. We love the old school beach house vibe with the modern kitchen. For us and our teenage sons it was PERFECT!
