NEW Listing, Dog-Friendly, No-Smoking, Ocean Front Cottage, Center of the Island

Dog friendly.

It has not been rated by VRBO yet because this is the 1st year that it is rented on the VRBO platform.

Avoid the check-in / check-out chaos on Saturdays. Peak season rentals are from Sunday to Sunday.

You do not need to bring sheets or towels if you rent for the FULL WEEK. PARTIAL WEEK RENTALS receive linens but NOT towels. And when you get there THE BEDS ARE ALREADY MADE UP FOR YOU. The cottage is supplied with the basic necessities such as beach chairs (at least 4), a corn hole board, some kids toys and even a spice cabinet for your convenience to utilize during your stay.

All of the kitchen appliances (except the microwave) have been replaced in March of 2024. The refrigerator even has a dual capacity icemaker.

Majestic views of the Atlantic Ocean! During the summer, sip on your favorite morning beverage and watch the sunrise. In the winter, you could watch the sunrise and the sunset from the ocean-side deck! Of course, you could take a few steps down the boardwalk to the beach and have solitude during the sunrises and sunsets.

Keep the lights off and stargaze at night. Have you ever used the "SkyVue" app on your phone?

Have a small sailboat or catamaran? Unload/Load once near the pier and leave it between the dunes and the boardwalk during the night while you stay there!

The beach is wide during low tide which provides great opportunities for shelling, walking, or jogging the beach. And a shower is just a few steps away to rinse off when you get back.

Being that this location is one of the less populated areas of the beach, there is minimal competition to get the perfect location on the surf to set up your "stuff" on the beach.
A great place for games on the beach. When it comes time to get off the beach for the day, all that stuff can be left inside the dunes and near the steps to the boardwalk without bringing it back to the house. Setups can't be any easier!

Do the kids want to putt-putt? Go get ice cream? Go to the pier? It's a short walk to those destinations. A golf cart is not needed.

Want to stay at home and not go out to eat? Downstairs is set up with gas and charcoal grills and a great place to enjoy happy hours as meals are prepared. We also have a propane burner and a big pot for shrimp boils. It is also a great place to play games (corn hole) if it's raining.

The outside shower is spacious and private.

Large living area, 4 bedrooms / 2 baths upstairs. 2 bedrooms / 1 bath downstairs. Sleeps, 13 people. We call one of the downstairs bedrooms the honeymoon suite - this bedroom makes it possible to get away from some of the hustle and bustle if you're there with a larger crowd.

Decks are on the front and rear of the cottage. The ocean side decks have gates to keep what's on the decks (kids and pets) on the decks.

A washer and dryer are provided downstairs in the storage room.

Ample parking for 7 to 8 vehicles.

You will receive additional correspondence from me with more info a few weeks before your scheduled arrival. I will send it to your email address.

NOTE: There is a $100 Administrative Fee (per booking) added to the price for renting our cottage. If you report to the owner (by email, text, or phone call) that you DID NOT bring pets, the $100 administrative fee will be refunded to you after your stay.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. A Smart television is provided for your entertainment. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Enjoy the recreation opportunities such as a spa tub or make use of other amenities including barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.

Beautiful Beach Wedding
This property was ideal for my daughter's destination beach wedding. The deck and boardwalk to the beach is absolutely perfect! We had plenty of room for our immediate family to stay and we held the reception in the covered parking area. Other guests stayed at the beach side motel just a few doors down the road totally within walking distance. My daughter and son-in-law loved it so much they are planning a return trip next year and feel they have found their family beach vacation spot.

Perfect vacation
This place was amazing for our family vacation! The location is perfect and the house itself is wonderful and stocked with everything you could need! Plus, Bobby was available for all questions ahead of time and during our stay. If you are considering booking a pet friendly house for your family vacation, this is the place! We will definitely be back!

Friend beach trip
The house was well stocked with just about everything we needed. The listing says there are hair dryers. There were not hair dryers, however as soon as we notified Bobby that there were not hairdryers, he sent three new hair dryers to the house. Thank you Bobby.

Great place!
Great house in a great location. Easy walking distance to the pier, shops and restaurants. The owner provided lots of little extras that made the stay even better. Comfortable beds. I'd definitely recommend the house to others and would stay there again.

What a great vacation stay!!
We made it down on Friday to check in and found the location to be perfect for our group! The house was clean, comfy beds, lots of room, decorated so perfectly for the beach, and well stocked with everything we could have imagined! Basically we could have just brought our clothes and it would have still been a great stay!! We will return given the opportunity and recommend this place for any large group!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Location with 😯 Deer Visits Daily We would definitely recommend this Great house. It has everything you need and was very close to many things to do like Putt Putt, Gift Shops, Arcade, Ice Cream Shop and Restaurant's. We will be back. The Host Bobby was awesome and was there if we had any questions and he offered many suggestions on Restaurants along with giving us advice on Tropical Storm Debbie and what to expect and do when it came on shore. They also have great neighbors (Deer) that came and visited around 6:30-7:00 every morning 🙂

Great Family Vacation
We have been staying at OIB for about the past 25 to 30 years. This rental was truly the best equipped unit in which we have stayed. We appreciated the extras that were provided (i.e. kitchen spices, kitchen & grilling equipment, beach chairs, corn hole set, laundry & dish detergent, towels, beach towels, linens, etc.) We enjoyed the grilling area and it was pleasant even during the heat of the day. We enjoyed the great ocean breeze from the porch swing on the lower level as well as from the rockers on the upper level. There was also excellent owner communication. It was a relaxing vacation for all and hope for a repeat next year!
