Couples Beach Get Away

We absolutely love staying with our friends each year in this wonderful beach house. Great location, views, and always clean. Thank you for always keeping the house updated including new decking and paint this year! Looking forward to next year.

Great stay

The house is in a great location. It was close to the beach and a short drive to restaurants and stores. The pool was heated and a big win with the kids. The kitchen had all the tools you could possibly need, and for once I didn’t have to take out or unpack my own kitchen tools. The house had plenty of room for our whole family, and we will certainly look to book this one again.

Family vacation

We enjoyed our stay. It was conveniently located near beach accesses and the pool was a hit with my granddaughters. We look forward to a return trip next year with Makin Memories home.

September at Ocean Isle Beach

The beach house was clean, well-appointed with kitchenware and appliances, and well located within a short walk to the beach. Owners were attentive to our needs and communicated with us during our stay to make sure everything was to our liking. House was renovated roughly 3 years ago so it didn't feel old or dingy like many of the other beach homes we have stayed at over the past few years. Would definitely stay there again if the opportunity arises in the future.

Memories Made

Arrived to the house and got in easily. I had to wait for the family, but once they got there, the fun had begun. The pool was great, beach was awesome, weather super, food was good (it was my cheat week), and my family had a great time as well.

Memorial Day Weekend

This was a great property! Comfortably slept 6 adults and 8 children (between 6 months and 13 years). Very clean. Very close to beach access. Pool was a big hit with all the kids. Great room comfortably accommodated all of us for games and TV. Kitchen had everything we needed for meals at home. Hoping to come back next year!

Wonderful weekend

Overall this was a wonderful stay and I’d stay here again. Great beach views! Loved the fact that every bedroom had its own bathroom. The only downside is they don’t provide linens unless you order them and there was no toilet paper or hand soap on arrival. Make sure you grab those things on your way in.

Great friends trip staying at Makin’ Memories!

We were 3 families with young kids and throughly enjoyed staying at Makin’ Memories! The home was very clean, kitchen stocked with all the essentials, comfortable beds, and nice ocean views from the second row. The pool area and under home space was well kept and comfortable with additional space to gather. The home is almost midpoint between two beach accesses but still a short walk. The communication with the home owner was excellent! Overall a great stay and would stay here again!

Relaxing house at a beautiful beach!

This house is spacious and comfortable. It is very well located in the second row from the beach, close to two beach access points. There's a pool in the back, and a nice grill so you can barbecue. One of my favorite things about the house is that there are two porches across the front. The one off the main living space has a big table that seats 8. We ate all our meals out there. The upstairs porch has a smaller table and chairs and is a nice place to sit outside at night and listen to the ocean. The only negative point is one the host made clear in advance - linens are not provided. No sheets or pillowcases, no towels, no beach towels. There are no hand towels or hand soap in the bathrooms. I understand this is a new trend in beach rentals, but I don't like it. We packed up all the linens and towels we needed, and with everything else we had to bring, our car was literally packed to the ceiling. Then when we got to the house, we had to go out and buy hand and dish soap. But we enjoyed this wonderful house just the same.

Awesome Views

Although it rained for our stay it helped to have such a spacious house to be in..The views of the ocean are beautiful from the upper level. Plenty of beds and baths.We had to bring our linens but that was no problem. The grandkids enjoyed the pool in between the rain and the outdoor furniture was useful so we could sit outside and enjoy the beach air. I would definitely stay here again just hope we have sunnier days!

Great Family Vacation Spot

The property was as described. The owner was outstanding with communication. Although it was late November, and very cold, the little ones enjoyed the heated pool. The appliances all worked well and the area is quiet. We were all happy with our time there.

Great View from the upper deck at Sunrise

Beware of extra fees. 1. After selecting this property on line I was prompted to pay for renters insurance, (non refundable $) or a deposit that equaled the weeks rental fee & would be refunded at a later date if determined a refund was due. 2. The week prior to arriving was notified that if we wanted the pool heated there would be an additional $/ day cost that equaled can be nights stay. When asked if we could pay the fee for 4 days not 7 (grandchildren-weren’t going for the full 7 days) response was “ All or nothing “. So we payed the fee as pool is located in the back & in the shade all day. 3.We arrived on theI Island a couple hours early so I contacted the owner to inquire about checking in early. He stated he’d make sure the house was cleaned & text me. He texted a few minutes later to say it was good to go but it would be an additional fee / hour to check in at 2 not 4. Approximately equal to a half day rate. 4. There is a cleaning fee that is approximately half the daily rate. The shower curtains had black mold at the bottom, the cleanliness of couches in the main room we’re very worn & dirty. My grandson pushed a matchbox car under the couch so we had to move the couch to find it and it was obvious it had not been cleaned or swept in a long time it was disgusting what was underneath the couch.

Great for kids!

We had an amazing family vacation at this house with 5 kids ranging from 9mo to 13yo and 6 adults. Amazing views considering its second row. The heated pool was fantastic, and our favorite part about the house. The house has great space for 3 young families to enjoy. Be aware that there is only one bathtub (for little ones), and the beach access is about 5 house to the left and right which isn’t ideal for young families carrying around beach gear. Would recommend this house to anyone!

A great beach house

We were a party of 3 families who greatly enjoyed our trip to OIB and found the house worked well for our needs. The kitchen was well equipped, the view was great especially for a second row home and the walk wasn't too far from the access. Tom was very responsive and friendly to any questions. We'd stay here again.

We had 2 families with 7 kids under 12 and they had a blast in the pool. We had a short walk to the beach and enjoyed the fireworks from the deck of the house. Would def go back. Great beach town. Thanks Tom.

Lovely spacious home

The house is very large and perfect for our family of six. The location was good in that beach access was minutes away. Since it is located further from the middle of town, it was nice and quiet and traffic was never a problem. The owner was very responsive when I formed him of a broken handrail. He was also helpful with check in which was easy. The only problem we saw was that the house needed a good deep cleaning. The pool was very nice but there was an area adjacent(near the pool toy box) where water had collected and it was slick with slimy water. But the pool itself was clean and perfect for play with small children. Overall this was a nice place to spend our week and would recommend it for families.

First Family Beach Vacation in 20 years

Ocean Isle Beach was wonderful. The house was a close walk to the beach. We rented a golf cart for the week but we ended up not using it very much. The house was great. There was plenty of room for our family to all sit at the table together for meals. The bedrooms are spacious, the porches are great and the pool was nice. Just be careful the pool deck is extremely slippery on one side. The homeowner was very responsive and kind.

Beautiful

This was a great location to stay at. The walk to the beach was very short even though it was not right on the beach. The owner was so friendly and helpful! Yes you do have to bring your own sheets and towels but it’s not a big deal. The only thing is to bring a sound machine because the house echoes. But we loved it and even stayed two extra nights!

Beautiful property but unclean :(

When we arrived the dishwasher was full of dirty dishes, the trash was completely full, and there was no toilet paper at all in several of the bathrooms and very little hand soap. We also found shoes of the previous guests under the couch. It was not fun starting off our vacation with cleaning and going to purchase basic necessities like toilet paper hand soap, and paper towels. It was also inconvenient to bring our own linens in general, but a lot of our car space was taken up by pillows we were told to bring on our way down, and when we arrived there were pillows there anyway. This is something that needs to be updated on the check in information so people can save room in their cars! It’s a beautiful house and a beautiful location, the pool is an especially nice feature. It would have been ideal, had there just been more attention to cleaning before our arrival.
