Property was great . really close to the beach and fishing opportunities. Quiet neighborhood for great relaxing vacation. They welcomed pets so it was great for our dogs . We brought our bikes and it was plenty of biking trails. Great plus was golf cart that you can use it for close drive to the beach.
We had a wonderful stay for a few days over New Year's and Ruff Tide was everything we hoped it would be. The West End of Oak Island is great as well, it's nice to be in a quiet area.
From the start of our vacation to the conclusion of our vacation, we completely enjoyed our stay at Ruff Tide! Great hosts, great location, friendly neighborhood, pet friendly and overall just an exceptional time!
The house was clean and nicely decorated for Christmas. Kids loved the bunk beds and the golf cart was nice for exploring. We go to OKI every Christmas and we would definitely stay again. The location was perfect for us as we had family close by so it was nice to hop on the golf cart and go visit.Best rental we have found so far.
Property was as stated, clean, and property management was very helpful. Enjoyed our stay and the pool was great. The pool was used from daylight till dark.
Great location , quiet and clean accommodations and the pool out back was perfect and such a nice addition to the property. Great place to kick back and relax for a week with kids and close enough to town for anything you need. Golf cart was awesome to get to and from the beach. Awesome hosts that were quick to respond to needs and small issues. Highly recommend
Our family enjoyed our stay! The house is located in a quiet area of the island. We were very impressed by the cleanliness of the home. The addition of a golf cart helps with transportation around the island, especially to the beach. We plan to stay again soon, maybe in the warmer weather so we can use the pool!
Our family had a wonderful time at Ruff Tide. The pool was so refreshing and we spent a lot of our time there. The property manager was very accommodating. The six seater golf cart was not going to be available so he found us another one to rent and then reimbursed us. This was definitely a great place.
My family and I enjoyed this home it had all the amenities needed and then some. The pool was awesome and our family really enjoyed it. The 6 person golf cart was an added bonus and made our trips to the beach easy and convenient. The set up with the outdoor television and seating was also nice. The management was very responsive to any questions or needs. We would gladly rebook again the next time we are in Oak Island.
My family and I had a wonderful time. No issues to report. The weather was great, the house was clean and there was no lack of amenities. Oak Island is truly a treasure and we’ll definitely look at Ruff Tide again in the future.
Our vacation home was beautiful. It was nice and clean. We loved the pool. It was so refreshing at the end of the day. The outside porch overlooking the pool was the best. I sat out there in the evenings. We watched the squirrels jumping from tree to tree. Also lots of woodpeckers it was at a perfect location. We took the golf cart to the beach. Also to a lot of the shops and ice cream shops. It was so easy to get around, instead of driving our van everywhere. This was our first time at oak island. We will most likely come back again. Thank you for allowing us to spend our family vacation in your beautiful beach house
Starting with the check in process it was a breeze! The property manager answered the phone on the 2nd ring I think I was more in SHOCK than anything!! He was pleasant and answered any questions I had. James was a LIFE-SAVER!!! After 15 hours on the road we just wanted to relax. The house was AS DESCRIBED (NICE LAYOUT) we were pleasantly surprised with a greetings bag full of things. The stores weren't too far and the beach was RIGHT down the road! After you get past the stairs you will be good. The areas to sit outside were all BEAUTIFUL! THANKS FOR HOSTING MY CREW & I!
This was a very clean and very nice property for my wife and I to stay at for a full week. The pool was clean and warm (heated) and we enjoyed it. Great, quiet location while still being close to the beach.
Your home was so relaxing and very clean. I also loved the neighborhood!It had everything I needed and had wonderful walks to the Waterway to watch dolphins. I plan on coming there to stay each year..Thank you!
My husband, mother, two kids and I enjoyed this house! The pool was great and the house was in a great location. My son loved riding in the golf cart with his dad and it was a nice ride to the beach. Great place in OKI!!
