Property is nice for the beach. Location was excellent. Place was clean definitely met our needs. It was a little different having to provide our own linens, meanwhile still paying the same cleaning fee we would elsewhere, but was not enough of a deterrent for us to pick another place. We would stay here again.

This was a great location and worked out really well if traveling with a pup for the 1st time in Ocean Isle. The fenced in back yard was ideal and was so close to beach access which was great for evening walks on the beach. The beach house was clean, beds comfortable and enjoyed the Keurig in the kitchen and clothes line on the back porch.

Great house in an excellent location. The beauty of the canal at night is stunning. The front upper deck allows a peak at the ocean. Love the outdoor shower and easy beach access. Bring your own sheets and towels. The owner is great to work with!

We were very disappointed by the cleanliness and quality of the home. When we read the description and the reviews we were very hopeful. However upon arrival we were totally shocked that anyone would rate this home highly. The check in was late because the cleaning crew was behind. The owner did refund our cleaning fee. The cleaning lady had to come back to remove sand and she showed up in a bikini. There was black mold and mildew throughout the showers. The furniture had stains everywhere. The kitchen cabinets were old and wouldn’t even shut. The garbage disposal wouldn’t work. The the dock was falling in but the maintenance crew came out to repair it to be safe mid week. Two mornings we found roaches in the floor. The grass hadn’t been cut in a couple weeks and all the trash cans were full and hadn’t been emptied. Needless to say we won’t stay there again.

House location was great and house was cute. It was not a great place for little kids. The twin bed room was not for kids the ages we had(7 yr olds)
Overall bedrooms were nice.

We really enjoyed our stay. The dock on the back provided a fun interesting set of creatures to see. The back deck provided such a beautiful breeze it was the perfect place to take a nap. The short walk to the beach provided all the fun beach time we could ask for. The kitchen also was well thought out with pans and such so we didn’t need to go out to eat much at all. Thanks so much!

This home is cozy, comfortable, clean and close to the beach. The AC works wonderfully - important on those humid days. We loved and used both decks to watch all the action. We'll be back!

We just love Serenity Cove…it’s not our first visit there or our last. Thankful for the ease and convenience of the location where we parked our vehicle and walked to wherever we wanted to on our long Easter weekend stay. Thank you Patty for allowing us to continue to stay in your house and bring our fur family!!

Beautiful house on the canal with easy access to the beach. Beach is quiet and peaceful and pretty much all to ourselves. The outdoor sitting areas are nice.

My family spent Thanksgiving in Ocean Isle Beach and this house was perfect for us. It has a dock so my daughters could launch their kayaks and my grandsons could fish. It has a fenced in yard so my daughter’s dog could comfortably come with us. The family room and eating area are a good size. It’s a short walk to the ocean. My only wish was that their was a half bath that you could use without having to go through a bedroom. But I would still stay there again.

We love this property. This was our second stay here. Our only concern this time was the lack of cleanliness. The Host is wonderful.

This was the perfect house for our annual family trip to OIB. I can't think of one negative thing from our experience. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed for cooking. Plus, there were condiments & spices/seasonings. The layout was perfect for our big crazy family. It felt like much more square footage than it is listed as. Even though there were 10 of us (8 adults & 2 children), we never felt cramped. We enjoyed having the canal view and such a short walk to the beach. The outdoor areas were great as well, lots of seating & the fenced in back yard were HUGE bonuses for us! Check-in was easy and I had good communication to/from the hosts. I would definitely recommend this property to others and hope to stay there again myself on future visits to OIB!

House was a nice size and fit our 2 families perfectly. The twin bed area is definitely for smaller kids with it’s slanted roofline. Our 6’5 18yr old felt a little too claustrophobic to use it, but we managed. There were quite a few beach chairs, boogie boards, and sand toys available for our use so that helped a lot. Walk to the beach was the easiest by far and made our beach time a lot more enjoyable as we could run back and forth thru out the day. Outside shower has the best water pressure in the house IMO. We would stay again if we ever come back to the area.

My family spent Christmas this year on this property and were very happy with how flexible and easy the owner was to work with, ease of getting into the house, the spacious rooms with ample furniture, kitchen was well stocked, available TV channels, fenced in area in the back, and how close we were to the beach. It was a very cold week while we were at the house, so the owner above and beyond by supplying us with a few extra space heaters to help us be more comfortable during our stay. We would defiantly come back to this property!

This is our 2nd stay at this house and we love it! Plenty of room for us, with our own boat dock to fish from, roomy deck and cozy balconies. We enjoy the fenced yard, porch swings, functioning kitchen with all you need (dishes included). It's so nice being on the canal, with the ocean just a short walk. Patty and Steve thank you so much! Looking forward to staying with you next year.

Excellent location. Enjoyed Drift coffee place on am. End of the summer yes but missing screens on downstairs bedroom facing inlet. Towels definitely needed replaced. Wash cloths x2 was
a cleaning cloth and another smelled like disinfectant. They were replaced when notified. Rugs needed to be cleaned probably mid summer they were dirty znd smelly. Front porch lights didn't work but we had our phones to use so we dealt with it. House has great bones and 5 adults and an infant enjoyed our time. Thank you to Patty and her team for assisting us. Again although I pointed out flaws we enjoyed our stay for sure. Hey folks clean the grill as requested by the owners. A simple burn off helps alot
Thanks again

Nice home, layout and location, but the living room furniture was very worn, all carpeted areas needs a deep cleaning, downstairs shower sliding door needs repaired and the return vents also need to be cleaned. A couple of the blinds in the two of the bedroom’s need to be replaced and I would recommend curtains in each bedroom. The host was very nice and was great to work with at this property.

Nice place
This was a very nice property and very close to the beach. Enjoyed it very much. The only downfall and this is not specific to this property but it would be nice,especially when we pay sooo much per night if toilet paper Kleenex paper towels etc would be provided to at least get us thru a couple of days

Convenient and comfortable
Our family stayed at Serenity Cove our second time but this time it was for a full week. Everything about this home is convenient and comfortable. We appreciate a home that we can also bring along our two Labradors! The fenced yard makes it safe for them and gives us peace of mind. The amenities are perfect for us all. Loved it and planning another visit in the near future!

Great Location and Beautiful Home
Overall we enjoyed our time at this home. The location was great. We enjoyed easy access to the beach and fishing in the canal. We did develop some sinus infections and the air didn't work in the upstairs loft.

Great house, fantastic location, Joyfull visit!
As advertised. Right on the canel and a block and a half from the beach. We always found parking at the beach but if not we would simply empty the car and return it to the house. What a convenience. Everything you'll need is in the house including a great gas grill in the backyard with corn hole boards and fenced for our fur baby. Patty was so responsive in providing info before our arrival.

Spring Getaway
Serenity Cove was a nice cozy place to spend our spring vacation. We had everything we needed in a home, enjoyed both decks and the walk to the beach is so easy. We'll be back soon.

Great house in great location
This house was wonderful! Excellent set up with 2 bedrooms up, sharing full bath and 2 bedrooms down, also sharing full bath. Love the little alcove off one upstairs bedroom that housed 2 twin beds. Perfect for a family with kids, or even teens! Large living area, great decks off front and back and balconies off both upstairs beds rooms. Fenced in yard for the small kids and or doggies. My favorite part was the back deck overlooking the waterway! Had chairs, picnic table and outdoor sofa, so could enjoy a meal or relax on the sofa with a drink and watch the sun go down. Will definitely be back!!

Needed Break
We, all middle school teachers, needed a place for Spring Break and this was perfect. A short walk to the beach was great and all the amenities on the property helped make our stay relaxing.

Not quite as updated as expected
The rooms and amenities were just as described, but the house overall is not as updated as the listing and photos would lead you to believe. I would stay there again, but was hoping for a bit newer place. Property management was very quick to respond to an issue we had with the air conditioner and check-in/check-out was very easy.
