My Sister and I had a great stay at this Beach Cottage. The cottage was clean and neat, and well taken care of . There were a few things we needed as we cooked all week, happens when you are on a fixed income. Plan on returning later this year with husband and fur baby, as back yard was fenced and I am sure she will love playing there. Cottage is within walking distance to the public beach access, (less than 1/2 a block to corner and 1 block to beach) and to the many paths that cross over the marsh, whch makes for a great stay. The best thing about this cottage is that both bathrooms have walk in showers and the bathrooms are large, have stayed at other places in Oak Island where that is not the case. I have to say the layout of this cottage is great and even though it is smaller than other places you still feel you are in a larger place.
