Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Melissa T. 9 Jun 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Almost perfect This house was almost perfect. Check in was easy. The door code was not our phone number so it was a bit long. The bed was extremely comfortable. Plenty of space, not cluttered great tools in the kitchen. The home was not cleaned well. This is the beginning of the summer season it should have been clean!! We took our own sheets and after the first night we pulled of their sheets that felt like sand paper and noticed the gross sweat stained mattress pad so we washed everything and slept like a dream. The towels are also like sand paper. Just take your own because the home is great! We did rent extra golf carts because the one at the home you can only ride around the neighborhood into the beach. It is not road ready. Overall we had an amazing time. Oak island is now my favorite beach to go to. It’s a small coin town and everyone is super friendly. ##### Melissa T.

The golf cart makes a trip to the beach so convenient. We love traveling with our pups and this was a very nice house for our beach getaway.

Other than this, the house was in great condition, clean, well taken care of, and had everything we needed to have an enjoyable stay. The showers were great, outdoor shower and hose was nice, and the golf cart was a great amenity to get to and from the beach access. The AC worked well, and hot water was good, and the living room TV was nice. ##### Jake W.

Clean and well appointed! We loved the modern amenities. This was a perfect house for our vacation. We have a relative that lives in Caswell Dunes and this was so convenient! The golf cart was great for mini-excursions and the outdoor area was perfect for showers, tv, scooters, lacrosse with the kids. The kitchen had literally everything and tv/wifi/wii was great too.

Great proximity to a lovely dog friendly beach. (At least in the off- season) My only complaint was the robotic and flawed management service Vacasa. Even with that, I would definitely return! ##### Amy K.

It's clean, well-appointed, comfortable, and has all the comforts of home. We loved the ability to use the bikes and golf cart to get back and forth from the beach. Since we had less-than-ideal weather when we traveled, we really enjoyed all the puzzles and games, and the smart TV came in especially handy too. You'd never know this property was pet-friendly. Very much enjoyed our stay. ##### Amanda C.

We had a great vacation. It was clean, comfortable, and well-appointed. There was plenty of natural light. Vacasa and the owner were very helpful with any questions we had. We made very good use of the bikes, beach chairs and umbrellas, and especially appreciated the golf cart. We could ride bikes or the cart to the beach. There were places for them to park. Walking to the beach was easy too. There is a wagon for beach equipment. The Caswell Dunes neighborhood was truly nice. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. Restaurants and stores in Oak Island and Southport were easily accessible. We heartily recommend Slowin’ Dune for a very enjoyable vacation. ##### Alice B.

The property is beautiful and the access to the beach is on point. The house is very spacious and feels very cozy. The only thing we would have liked better was for it to be a little cleaner. The table still had cup rings and crumbs everywhere when we got there. The bathroom had hair still in it from the previous people there and so did the bed. When we first arrived we went to use the golf cart and it died half way through the neighborhood and we spent a lot of time trying to push it back. Once we got back and charged it it then worked just fine. Overall the experience was great just a few things that could have been better. Thank you for letting us stay. ##### Coy I.

Overall, the location and the house worked well for us. It is situated in a quiet neighborhood and is close to the beach access. Is it perfect? No, but close enough. Pros: The layout of this home is perfect. Large open kitchen, dining, and living room. Bedrooms are separated by location and/or shared bathroom. Super roomy showers with plenty of water pressure and hot water (instant water heater). It's decorated for the beach, but done in a tasteful, understated manner. There isn't a lot of “stuff” sitting everywhere. The kitchen is well stocked with plenty of pots, pans, and all types of dishes. Many small appliances as well (toaster, kitchen aid mixer, Ninja blender, Kureg, regular drip coffee pot, and a bullet blender). Gas stove with vented microwave over it, roomy fridge, and dishwasher. Plenty of game choices including board games, cards, and some yard games. We brought our own beach chairs, but found plenty in the little garage area. The golf cart was perfect way to haul everything to the beach. The bicycles there were too tall for my wife to ride. Cons: The king sized bed in the master bedroom is absolutely the worse bed ever. It is overly soft and lumpy. We wound up moving to the queen bed just to get some sleep. The furniture in the living room is dirty and also not comfortable. The home and the whole area is pet friendly, but the rugs in the home cause me to pause. I am not sure they have ever been cleaned and our dogs would smell spots on them before moving on to another part of the room. As I said, overall the home works and we would stay here again. ##### James T. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura P. 25 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy ##### Laura P.
