Oak Island house
We were totally satisfied with this house in Oak Island. We brought our pets and the fenced in back yard was very nice for them. We would stay at this house again. Very clean and nice home.

Terrible Stay
The property wasn't cleaned before we arrived. The front door was standing wide open when we got there. The kitchen chairs were broken. We went to the hardware store and purchased supplies to fix them. The back patio was nasty with leaves all over it. The floors had not been swept in any of the rooms. There was hair and lint under the beds and stuck to the dining room tables. Couch in living room was worn out. Better Beach Rentals is horrible. No communication about front door being left open. I left this house 100% better than I found it.

Nice place a bit far from the beach
This is a nice place. Clean and the backyard is great. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was the kitchen utensils were cheap. This always makes cooking difficult when your fighting with the can opener or the pots and pans. Otherwise its a great place.

Great property, clean, and in a nice neighborhood. Loved the privacy of the fenced in yard. The nearest walkway to the beach was washed out, and added a 1/2 mile walk- but it all worked out. Definitely recommend the property to other families.

Everything was clean and house was perfect for us with fenced in yard. Our beagle was able to run. The only things that went wrong was the refrigerator never got cold, sinks backed up in master and secondary baths, terrible smell In master closet. Towels where very scratchy

Lovely Home-very comfortable.
Had a great time, the house was clean and had plenty of room for everyone. Enjoyed the backyard as the young children could play outside without someone being with them every minute. Close to the beach and other attractions. Really a lovely place.
