A privated fenced area for our 4 legged family members, a beautiful kitchen and a magnificent master sweet. Also, the huge bed swing on the screened in back porch!!! Located not too far from the beach, easy walk or very quick drive or golf cart ride to the pay to park spots at the beach strand. This was our first trip to Oak Island and we fell in love with this cozy lil beach side town. We will be staying here again in the future. ##### Mark K.
