Peaceful and clean

We traveled with my parents and my two children. The house is in a quiet neighborhood just a block away from the ocean. Lots of activities within a 15 minute drive. The house was set up great for our family. Bedrooms were comfortable and bathrooms nice. Lots of places to spread out. Kitchen was perfect for our meals. The yard and sun room were perfect for relaxing. We will be back.

Perfection!

We had a wonderful stay!! The house was nicely decorated, comfortable and very clean. We especially enjoyed the back sunroom and the front porch. The house is a few minutes walk from the beach, which was fantastic for our sunrise/sunset walks and our beach days. The beach chairs were very much appreciated! Communication with the owner was quick and seamless. Thank you!!

Amazing home and so close to beach!

This home is perfect for me, my husband and two older children (not yet teenagers). The outdoor shower was my absolute favorite! Very quick walk to public beach access. And the backyard setup was perfect! We would hang out in the back around the fire pit (without a fire because it was hot outside) and the scenery and sounds were very relaxing! Definitely going back.

Adorable OKI House Close to Beach

We loved our stay at The Grove! The bedrooms were spacious and tidy with plenty of storage for suitcases and unpacking. We loved the sunroom and all the natural light this house provided. We travelled with 3 adults and a 9 month old baby, and had plenty of room (and quiet!) to accommodate everyone. Walking distance to beach access was an incredible perk. 10/10 would recommend!

Great stay at The Grove!

Clean, updated home in a perfect location! Just a short walk to the pier, coffee shop, and restaurants! The beach access is just at the end of the street, and a cart, chairs, umbrella, boogie boards are all provided! All of the beds are very comfortable, and communication with the host is excellent! Will definitely stay here again!

Amazing stay at The Grove!

We enjoyed everything about our stay at The Grove @OKI! The communication was top-notch, along with the home and location ❤️ We would definitely stay here again and not hesitate to recommend. Loved the proximity to the beach (can hear the waves from the front deck), while remaining in a quiet neighborhood.

Cozy and quiet

This house was perfect for our family of 6. I loved the fire pit, my husband loved the enclosed porch and our kids loved the outdoor showers. We were comfortable and the owners took a personal interest to make sure we were well cared for. Oak Island alone is fantastic, but having our own space to just relax in was icing on the cake. We would stay here again, overall an excellent experience.

Cozy beach cottage perfection!

Wow, where do I even begin by saying that this home is absolutely amazing! The design and decor is HGTV worthy in every aspect. We spent so much of our time on the enclosed back porch with the windows open while listening to the sound of the waves in the distance. The beach is only a 2 minute walk down the quiet street. In the evenings we sat around the stone fire pit underneath the most amazing trees on the property. Bring your firewood, because you’re really going to enjoy this one!! I could have slept out there every night. In the mornings, we thoroughly enjoyed the complimentary coffee and tea bar that was stocked fully when we checked in. A 5 star experience is what we definitely got when we stayed here. Wes and Amanda were the most gracious hosts, and made sure that we were completely taken care of. I work in the travel industry, and this is by far one of the best rentals that I have stayed in. Book this property. I promise that you will not be disappointed! Many Thanks to Wes and Amanda! You’re fantastic!

About the host

Hosted by Wes MacLeod

Hey Everyone. We are husband and wife duo and live in beautiful Wilmington, North Carolina with our two children. We enjoy the coastal lifestyle and all it has to offer and are excited to share it with you. We surf, golf, and fish when the time is right. We love the southeastern North Carolina for the quality of life it offers our family.

Why they chose this property

We are happy to share our special getaway with you and truly hope you get to enjoy it as much as we do. The beach is a short stroll down the street, and there are some fantastic restaurants in the neighborhood. The Live Oak trees on the property was the main draw for us. They are truly breathtaking and a testament to time.

What makes this property unique

Not many beach properties come with historic Live Oaks that offer a natural feeling and sense of calm. Our property has a fantastic fire pit in the back yard. We truly love being able to walk to the beach and to nearby restaurants and shops without ever getting in the car.
