Cottage by the Sea: Pagnotto Shellback House
We found our favorite NC beach town. Come experience the beauty of Oak Island in this spacious refurbished cottage under the most beautiful twisted oaks on a quiet street on the friendliest little island. Walk to the dock at end of the street to fish or read or launch your kayak to explore the historic intracoastal waterway and end your day watching the sun set over the water. Oak Island's uncrowded beaches are just a 2 minute drive or 15 minute walk away.
Spend your days enjoying the miles of shoreline or hiking the overlook trails or taking daytrips to Southport or the Fort Fisher Aquarium or Bald Head Island and come back home to your cottage under the oak trees. Fully renovated and designed for a beach vacation you'll want to keep coming back for.
You'll have easy access when you arrive using a passcode provided prior to your stay. Plenty of parking on the paved driveway. The entire home and yard is yours to use, aside from a small linen closet and garage.
The neighbors call this Dream Street. It's a quiet and friendly little street with a dock at the end.
The island is easy to navigate. OKI is one of the last beaches with free parking everywhere. For a super fun vacation you can rent a golf cart during your stay.
Feel free to fill the birdbath and watch the birds enjoy. Turn on your bluetooth and hook up to PYLEUSA to start enjoying your music on the home speaker. There are beach towels and buckets just inside the front door and chairs and boogie boards outside the side door. There's a small cooler in the kitchen for you to take to the beach. After your beach day hang your towels on the retractable clothesline off the deck that hooks to the tree. There's a cornhole set under the couch and other board games on the coffee table. There is plenty of hand soap, paper towels, trash bags, etc. Feel free to reach out with any questions you have. We're available and want to make your stay great.

Short Stay
Everything about the property is as listed. It was clean, comfortable, and well equipped. We needed a one story location for accessibility, and this listing served us well.

Very clean and comfortable
This was a lovely long weekend for me and my daughter- the space had all the things we needed. This house is comfortable, spacious and clean. The location was great, a short ride to all things. Oak Island is truly a gem. Thank you

Simply perfect!
A rare combination of minutes from the beach and town but sitting on the porch could only hear nature. Peaceful and magical street and totally comfortable home. Spotless but so livable. Everything works great and owners thought of every nice touch. Simply perfect!
