Perfect Location
We would highly recommend A Music Box to anyone looking for a place to say in OIB. This property is just as described in the listing/pictures, and comes with many extras that make a stay here even better (records/record player, shuffleboard course, corn hole, etc). The location is great in a quiet area with a short walk to the beach, and the view from the Owls Nest is one of the best we’ve seen on the island. Tommy was great to deal with from booking to check-in/out. We will definitely look for A Music Box when booking our next stay in OIB.

The Music Box was impressive from the first step inside the door. Tommy was great to work with from start to finish. Our family utilized the periods of no rain to get to the beach but when we were “housebound” there was something for everyone and our ages ranged from 10-76. Tommy was great texting me with official updates from the town of OIB. We were so pleased with our stay at The Music Box!

Family Friends Beach Trip
We had a group of 4 families all stay for the week. This house really has some great amenities. We got to enjoy all 4 large porches. Another thing that we found to be nice was having two large living areas, which helped with not feeling over crowded. When they say this house is fully stocked, they mean it. The kitchen had everything we needed and then some. The house has an amazing game selection including board games and puzzles. The kids and adults both loved the arcade set up as well. It was absolutely amazing that each bedroom had its own full bathroom. Easy walk to the beach, even with the kiddos. Loved having the pool and tiki bar as well. We really did get to enjoy every part of the house. Tommy was always very responsive and easy to communicate with. Thanks again for sharing your home with us!

Fantastic Family Getaway
The Music Box is a wonderful house and location. If you are looking for a low-key family getaway, I could not recommend this house and Tommy any higher. The rental is packed full of music and musically-themed items. We had so much fun locating everything in each room, and Tommy was such a gracious host. He was extremely patient and quick to respond to all of our questions. We could not have asked for more of the house or the host. We had one small trip snag due to the cleaning service not cleaning the oven and the outside sink. We notified Tommy, and he quickly contacted the cleaning service and the maintenance company. We had a few other issues with the cleaning service, and we made Tommy aware, and he was going to speak to them about the problems. Our group consisted of 6 adults, one teenager, two children, and one infant. We had plenty of sleeping options to accommodate everyone, and we could fit a pack-n-play in one of the Queen rooms. The kitchen is truly stocked. I have stayed in other rentals claiming they have a fully stocked kitchen, but this one is really fully stocked. Everything from spices to storage containers, bakeware, pots, and pans are available. Our biggest problem was where to put all the stuff we brought that we really didn’t need to bring. The pool was a godsend to occupy the older kids while the younger ones were napping. We also enjoyed cooking out on the grill and the Tiki bar. We loved sitting out on the deck and listening to the sound of the ocean, and the view of the sunrise from the Owls Nest was breathtaking. I would encourage anyone staying in Ocean Isle to review the beach policy and what is allowed on the beach for cover. We found out that tents or canopies with more than one pole and two sandbags were not allowed; however, we found two Shibumi Shade canopies which are (at this time) allowed to use during our stay. Tommy was also a great help to us in getting this question and issue resolved. All in all, our stay at The Music Box was the family vacation we had been dreaming about for two years. It was fun, relaxing, and thoroughly enjoyable. I highly recommend this rental and its host Tommy.

Amazing Beach Vacation
The Music Box was a fantastic house with tons of character and super convenient location to the beach. It was perfect for our family of kids, teens, and grandparents. The kitchen was the most well-stocked of any rental we’ve stayed at, the appliances were top notch, and the game room a hit with the kids. The owners thought of everything to make our stay welcoming and comfortable. We hope to return next summer!
