Wonderful property

We have stayed at this home year after year. It’s a great property for large families, particularly if you have kayakers in your group. The location is excellent and the home is very comfortable and roomy. We love this home.

What a wonderful eclectic home from the 1950s

I loved this rambling one-story home. It has a lot of personality and a lot of energy around it. It is in a wonderful location right on the intercoastal waterway. We used the kayaks that were provided and we also used the property’s bicycles to ride on the beach. We had a family gathering there on one of the days to celebrate the lives of my brother and his wife. It was much appreciated that parking was available for those who attended. We also liked the 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. The sleeping arrangements made vacationing there very comfortable. I would highly recommend this VRBO. The hostesses were very communicative and prompt in responding to any questions we had. I hope to visit the property again in the future. Cheryl

Great property

We loved our stay. The pictures do not give this house justice. It is an older home but it is beautiful. If you choose to stay, don't worry about bringing beach chairs. They have plenty to use. My boys enjoyed taking bike rides and fishing on the dock.

Amazing vacation home!

Probably the best vacation property I’ve ever stayed at. The amount of things you can do without leaving the property is mind boggling. We probably caught over 100 fish during our one week there right off the dock along with numerous crabs. Saw all kinds of wildlife including bald eagles, osprey’s and an alligator. The beach is an easy walk or there’s a large parking area real close if you prefer to drive. I would go back every year.

Gorgeous!

The home and its grounds were beautiful. I’ve never stayed at a rental that was so well stocked. We caught lots of fish from the dock; drum (one 18”), crappy, croakers, and huge crabs. Kayaking was amazing. The owners are always available if you need anything.

Our first trip to OKI

We had a great first trip to OKI. This house was perfect for our family if 3. The neighborhood is wonderful for walking or running. The beach is a close drive, which for us was no problem. Our son works remotely for a CA company so the 2 days he worked remotely he had his own private area to work. Our dog loved the fenced in backyard….. we absolutely loved the kayaks and the waterway behind the house. The owners keep the house very well stocked, honestly for anything you may need. We will be back!

The best beach vacation!!!

Convenient to everything! Loved crabbing and fishing from the docks and mornings and evenings on the screened porch. Beach access is an easy walk. House is huge and would be good for family gatherings. Loved that the kitchen is open to dining area and family room. Grocery stores are nearby. Host was super-responsive to any questions. Enjoy your stay at this great rental home!

Great stay

We had a really great stay for our group of nine family members, ranging in age from 4mo to 67. The house is better than what you see in the pictures. Tons of space, very clean, well stocked. The furnishings are old but in good condition. We loved the location - went kayaking and crabbed/fished from the back dock (caught several crabs). The house is 5 min to the beach and numerous shops and restaurants. Overall, our stay was better than expected.

Perfect for spot for everything

The location was just what we needed for our large group of 10. We could fish, shrimp, and do crabbing off the back dock and take a 10 minute or less drive the to beach for surf fishing and play. Close to everything we needed and more. Homeowners always quick to reply to any need or questions. We would definitely stay here again.
