West End Gulls~Beach Access~Astonishing Views~Small Dog Friendly

Our little coral colored cottage is absolutely perfect for your next family vacation. We have the perfect location and amazing views that will make you want to extend your stay. Enjoy your morning coffee out on the back deck and watch the ocean waves or take an early morning stroll along the beach and search for seashells before anyone else scoops them up! Inside the cottage you will find the kitchen fully stocked with dishes, pots and pans, silverware- anything you need, should you decide to cook while on vacation. The living room is cozy and has a Roku TV where guests can log into their streaming services. Down the hall is our full guest bath with standup shower. The first bedroom on the right features bunk beds with a full on bottom and twin on top- linens are always included. The next guest bedroom has a queen bed and our primary bedroom has a queen bed with a primary full bath attached. Walk right out our sliding patio doors from the primary bedroom or the living room sliders onto the deck to take in the gorgeous scenery day or night. On the deck we have an outdoor shower for guests to rinse off after a long day at the beach. Under the house we have a washer/dryer for guest use.

Very well-kept cottage on the beach
The owners keep this property in top shape. The interior is modern and clean, and everything works as it should. The kitchen is fully furnished, though somewhat inexpensively, but I don't ding the owners for this since it is nearly impossible to keep nice things in a rental like this. I cooked several meals and never had to look far for what I needed. The hot water is hot, the refrigerator is cold, and the air conditioning system has no problem keeping up with the hottest days. The deck is ample, and there are some beach items underneath the house. The washer and dryer work great. Ideally they would be located within the house, but it's already on the cozy side so it's really no bother taking it downstairs and back up. The beds are extremely comfortable in my opinion. My wife and I liked it so much that we are asking what brand and model they are so that we can look into acquiring one like it for our home. With the erosion control policies that are now at most North Carolina beaches, we can no longer walk straight out to the beach from the back deck, but this house is only one house from the public access path, and so walking to the beach from the front door of the house is maybe a two-minute walk to get your toes wet. The host, Dee, was very easy to reach and responded quickly whenever I wrote to ask her a question about anything. Want fresh local seafood? Check out Haag and Sons. Want great ice cream or doughnuts? Check out OKI Scoop.

Wonderful long weekend stay
My husband, dog and I enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed and we appreciated the fully stocked Keurig and treats. Additionally, the beds were very comfortable. The view from the deck was beautiful and was so convenient right on the beach. We hope to be back!

Great little place
Very clean with great views as advertised. Property manager was super helpful and responsive. Not much closet space so just be prepared for that. Would stay again!

Awesome Rental at Oak Island West End Gulls
This was our best rental experience by far at Oak Island/Sunset Beach, N.C.! The house was newly renovated and very clean! It was right on the beach next to public access. We were able to bring our small dog which was a big plus! Communication from the host, Dee, was outstanding! Check in was seamless and easy and she responded immediately to our questions. All linens and towels were provided which made us very happy since at another rental we ended up having to go buy everything! There were even extra toiletries soap shampoo and toothbrushes which was great since my wife forgot hers! They even provided the K-Cups for the coffee machine! I highly recommend this rental the price was reasonable and we intend to come back sometime!

Absolute Gem! And What a View!!!!!
Beautiful house. Wonderful layout for families. Kitchen was fully equipted and well stocked. Bathrooms were the same. Immaculate - which for a pet friendly rental is amazing. Beach access could not have been better. We lived on the deck - What a view! We had a storm one day and with that view it was truly awesome. Dee was a fantastic host. Easy to reach and incredibly responsive. We will be back.

Last minute vacation plans
The beach house was prefect for our last minute decision to vacation by the ocean and in the mountains of North Carolina. Thank you Dee for a great time at Oak Island.
