Our first time to Oak Island and with our dog Melanie and Jeff were perfect hosts. The Sea Shed was almost brand new, comfortable and with everything you need. Good waking area and only a 5 minute walk to beach. Lots to see nearby as well.

The cottage was beautiful! Very impressed with the little extra touches such as the toys in the bedroom with the bunks. Great WiFi, channel choices on the TV and comfy furniture. Wished we could have enjoyed the outside more but you can't change weather!

It was very nice and clean. We could not watch the tvs. A teck came and got two on, but we lost signal after a while. We did not request assistance again. Also, the shade on the sliding door needed to be replaced.

Very nice house. WiFi was good until last day. Loved the pool. Since we booked way in advance we paid top $$ for the place. With that said I thought they were very stingy with the towels only one per person for a week stay. Access to small vacuum would have nice to keep place clean, especially common areas.

It's just Perfect! Steps from the ocean. Our dogs loved it. We really liked all the wood since our own home is made with alot of wood. It's been well maintained. Its everything you need for the beach. I would recommend they fix the latches on both gates. They've all but rusted away. We got a bundgy cord to secure them while we were there.

Discover the Magic of an Oak Island Vacation Home

Where are the unique attractions in Oak Island?

Discover History and Local Legends

Not far from Oak Island on the mainland, you'll come upon Keziah Memorial Park. This little park on the waterfront has a unique history. It revolves around an ancient, 800 year old oak tree named the Indian Trail Tree. Legend states that it was curved deliberately while it was still a sapling to provide approaching fishermen with a direction to their preferred hunting ground. Sometime later it rooted itself a second time, forming a natural arch.

What are the must-see attractions in Oak Island?

5 Family-Friendly Things to Do on Oak Island

1. Check out Oak Island Lighthouse

At 153 feet tall, this imposing feature is unusual in having a series of ships ladders rather than a spiral staircase to ascend to its summit. A light flashes from its top every four seconds.

2. Stroll along Ocean Crest Pier

Voted the best pier in North Carolina, you'll find the fish biting here. It is the longest pier on the southern Cape Fear Coast and a source of prize-winning king and Spanish mackerel, as well as fishing competitions that attract visitors from miles around. Stroll along the pier on a summer's day and take in the sea views.

3. Discover Fort Caswell

There's so much going on at this pre-Civil War through to WWI fort; from educational events to services. The grounds are privately owned by the Baptist Church, so check the days it's open to the public before you go.

4. Splash around at Oak Island Beach

This tranquil beach is superbly well equipped for family days in the sun. Enjoy warm water throughout the season, and its easy to rent equipment for watersports from several companies located right on the shore. Inexpensive and excellent restaurants overlook the beach - the best place to catch the sunset.

5. Enjoy delicious seafood at Oak Island Pier

Oak Island Pier is distinguished from Ocean Crest by the profusion of attractions that surround its intersection with the coast. Here you'll find Pier House, which has all your fishing needs taken care of, plus you can enjoy the freshly caught catch-of-the-day at Pier Restaurant. You can always find out what's going on at the pier with the online PierCam.
