The Half Shell Cottage - Walkable Beach Bungalow

Welcome to The Half Shell Cottage, a quaint Oak Island bungalow close enough to hear the ocean and within walking distance to the beach.

Newly renovated with fresh walls, floors, and fixtures, this seaside cottage keeps its original charm. Inside there are three bedrooms and one bathroom with one Queen Bed, one Full Bed, and Full-Size bunk beds. Cozy in size, but big on location, it's an easy relaxed, place to unwind, enjoy a drink, and let the beach days linger.
