My family came from Wisconsin, Virginia and New York and we had a fabulous time! The house was perfect and just a very short walk to the beach. The canal view is gorgeous and very peaceful. The owner is fabulous responds quickly and was very kind. Even got us in early!! Loved this house and you will too!

This is was our 6th visit to OIB in as many years and the 4th house we have stayed in. We've always rented canal homes. This one was special being on the end of the canal. It meant we had a short walk to the beach and a gorgeous view down the whole length of the canal. Docking our boat was easy because wind and current effects were minimal. It also means the house is oriented north/south instead of the more typical east/west canal side homes. There was no blistering afternoon exposure like many homes have.
The host was quick and helpful with communication. The interior was was nicely and comfortably decorated. The fenced in yard was a great comfort to the 3 year old's mother. The home was large enough to accommodate our group of 5 adults and 4 children easily. The kitchen did not lack anything we needed. The newly remodeled baths on the main floor were terrific and much nicer than what is often found in beach house rentals. If we could change anything we would make check-out a bit later than 9:30, but, c'est la vie. It is a great house!

Our stay at this home was wonderful. It was clean, roomy, and loved the canal view. We would definitely stay at this home again.

Our family loved this beach house, there were 11 (6 adults, 5 children) of us and there was plenty of space. The view of the inlet is beautiful and it’s an very easy walk to the beach. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you would need. The owner was very responsive when I reached out to her.

We visit the beach with family once a year. This is the first home we have stayed at that we have all agreed we would return back to year after year. The kitchen is wonderfully stocked, the bedrooms are beautiful and spacious. The bathrooms were amazing! Being on the canal is our favorite spot; the kayaks and water toys were an added bonus. The downstairs hot tub and hangout spot is where we spent a lot of our time. You are a very short (easy) walk to beach access, which was great. There just aren't enough great things to say about this home. The hosts were super communicative, helpful, and very easy to get ahold of. Thanks for sharing your home!

Our family has been coming to OIB for over 60 years. This house is one of our favorites. Located on canal for swimming, kayaking, and boating. Close walk to beach access. Very beautiful, comfortable and clean house. We have already reserved for next year. Host responded quickly to any concerns.

We had a fantastic week at Collen’s home! The house is well equipped and conveniently located within easy walking distance to the beach. The kayaks are fun to explore the canals of Ocean Isle. The hot tub is cleaned regularly so felt very comfortable using it and was great to sit outside with a cocktail watching sports on the huge TV downstairs. The kitchen was very well equipped with just about everything you need to cook dinner for your friends and family. WIFI, Bluetooth speaker and all the TV’s worked great. They have chairs available for the beach but you might consider bringing your own if you are particular. All in all a lv awesome week at the cottage. Thanks Collen!!

The house was very well laid out, easily accommodated my group of 6 ladies! The host was the best! No questions went unanswered. Love the canal view, hot tub was very nice. Only thing I could think that could be improved was the queen bed was very firm, but some may like it that way. The remodeled bathrooms were very pretty! Overall a great place and will stay again.

We truly had a wonderful vacation. The home was clean, well stocked with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. And the location was absolutely perfect. Three minute walk to the beach and a fabulous backyard view with access to kayak, boat and swim. The owners were great to work with and communicated frequently. Thanks you for sharing your house with us!

Overall we enjoyed this house. I will post some details for those considering renting here.
Walk to beach - super short walk. Glad we didn’t rent a golf cart for that haul as it would have been a waste of $. The beach access is via a lot of STAIRS. Know this when packing down your beach cart.
Amenities: This house had more than we realized!! We were surprised to find beach chairs and umbrellas. Save your packing space and use what’s there (unless you just really love your own umbrella and chairs). LOTS of people had the Shibumi shades on the beach and that would have been better than umbrellas - the wind was INSANE this week. The kayaks were a hit and plenty of life vests to choose from. The outdoor space we LOVED! The hot tub, hammock, tv space, corn hole, all of it!
The A/C kept up really well for a bigger house full of 5 kids and 4 adults.
We had to bring our own sheets and bath towels. In the future that would be nice to not have to bring if they were provided. The beds were comfortable (the downstairs queen suite was definitely really firm though - maybe a memory foam topper would be a nice addition?).
The kitchen was really disorganized when we arrived - but we were told the previous family left quite the mess so that may have been it. The cupboards were organized by the time we left though. Good stock of dishes and service ware. A lot of utensils for cooking in general / pretty much everything you need. Coffee pot AND a Keurig. Several options of toasters. Even a large electric griddle. The fridge is a good size (the freezer door was difficult to open but owner is now aware).
Electronics - smart TVs in all rooms was really exceptional. Nice to able to utilize Netflix, etc. Plenty of places to charge phones, etc.
All in all a great stay with plenty of room! My only suggestions to improve would be providing linens, maybe some more game options for families visiting.

Loved it!
The property was in a prime location to enjoy canal water and a very short walk to the beach. The house was stocked with everything we needed both in the kitchen and with fun activities. The bathrooms were newly renovated and beautifully done. There was fresh paint on the bedroom walls too. Any questions were fully answered.

Relaxing and homey escape
From the moment we booked until we checked out, the host was welcoming and helpful. The house was spacious and well-stocked with everything we needed to feel at home. The proximity to the beach access is INCREDIBLE, and the extras they have to entertain at home were such a bonus (hot tub, corn hole, kayaks, beach toys, huge grill, life jackets, etc.). We hope to return again next year!

Amazing location, super easy walk to the beach. Wonderful extras like cornhole, hot tub, kayaks, multiple lounge areas, games and kitchen gadgets took this rental over the top!
Collen was super communicative and always available to answer my (many) questions!
We brought our boat and were able to dock right at the house. Dock is nice, new and clean. The ride from the ramp to the house was easy.
Our whole family loved this trip - there was something for everything to enjoy from the grandparents to the infants!
Thank you for a great experience!

We stayed a week at this house and absolutely loved it. The kids took advantage of the canal every day (swimming, fishing for spot, kayaking). The 2-block walk to the beach was super EASY...especially when lugging all the kids’ stuff. For home cooks, the kitchen is fully stocked with spices, good knives, lots of pots/pans...no need to bring anything on your own. The hot tub and outdoor TV/entertainment area was perfect for us adults to unwind with at the end of the night. We’ll likely be returning next year!

Great house on the canal!
My family of 12 just stayed in this home last week. It was perfect as far as sleeping arrangements and we loved having the kayaks and fishing from the canal and the beach just right down the street! The outdoor area was really a plus!
