Reviews

Vacation Rental Guest, Kristil

"The place was amazing - beautiful location Cliff was awesome!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Winston

"Irish Gamble is an amazing OIB oceanfront property! The view of the ocean means even if you’re stuck inside due to chilly rain-you still know you’re at the beach. The bedrooms are large and slept our group of 12 women easily! The kitchen includes two dishwashers, beverage fridge and separate ice maker…. All needed by our group!! This was our second year and we are already putting our interesting for next spring. P.S. The heated pool is just an added bonus!!!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Myrna

"Family Beach Trip. This house accommodated our family perfectly. It was really well equipped and the location, heated pool, direct access to the beach and ocean views were amazing. We had a great time and would come back to this home again. Highly recommend."

Vacation Rental Guest, Sheila

"We can’t rate this highly enough!!
We never tired of the view! We used the pool when babies were napping and the beach when they were awake. Details like having 2 dishwashers, an ice maker, and a separate fridge for drinks made 15 people living together much easier! The kitchen was a great place to cook while others were gathered in the open living room or on the deck. There are so many cozy places to go and sit to read or play a game, both inside and out. There were plenty of chairs so we could all squeeze around the large table at dinner. The only thing we didn’t like was leaving!!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Ken

"We booked the Irish Gamble for our annual golf trip with 12 friends, and it couldn’t have been a better home base. The property was exactly as described, and even better in person. Thanks so much, Cliff, for the wonderful hospitality!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Dylan

"Great place!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Daniel

"This house was a perfect location for our Thanksgiving family gathering. Separate bedrooms for each couple and kitchen that seated 14. Kitchen stocked with pretty much anything you could ever need. And the beach view is fantastic. "

Vacation Rental Guest, Ashley

"Great ocean views, the house had everything we needed, the host was helpful and responsive!"

Vacation Rental Guest, David

"Awesome property! Would book again!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Lisa

"Great property and service!"

Vacation Rental Guest

"This was our 16th annual family vacation at the Irish Gamble. It continues to provide a comfortable home away from home for our large family ages 6-81. The addition of the pool was a bonus as more grandchildren came along and the bar area is the gathering place for all ages. The owners keep it looking and feeling fresh and new."

Vacation Rental Guest, Dan

"Awesome house right on the beach. Pool was nice and warm. Plenty of beds for a group of guys to spread out. Would absolutely stay here again."

Vacation Rental Guest, Heather

"My family absolutely loved this house! Absolutely beautiful all around. Lots of outdoor space between the beach, deck, pool and porch! Kitchen was very well stocked with everything we could need, house was just as the pictures depicted. Cliff was a very friendly and responsive host with many helpful recommendations. Would definitely love to come back again!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Erik

"Great ocean front beach house close to everything. The 6 bathrooms and 12 beds are very convenient for large groups. Plenty of different areas to sit and relax."

Vacation Rental Guest, Suzanne

"Beautiful property with a million dollar view!"

Vacation Rental Guest, ChristiJo

"Our group enjoyed this property very much, including the views and amenities. It did not disappoint. There was something for everyone (beach, pool, putting green). We were also fortunate enough to witness the turtles hatching and making their way to the ocean. Cliff was great to work with and responded quickly to any questions. I highly recommend."

Vacation Rental Guest, Tonia

"Cliff was great. Very responsive and timely. The house is beautiful and accommodating. We had a great time. The pool was pristine."

Vacation Rental Guest, Claire

"We loved the home! We did let Cliff know of a few minor fixes that needed attention and based on his response, I'm sure that he took care of them! We had the bonus of seeing the last, 32 "turtle boil" right at the base of the stairs. A definite high light to a soggy long weekend!"

Vacation Rental Guest, Paul

"This property was awesome from start to finish. Great communication, easy check-in, fantastic location and the space we needed. Will definitely look to use this place again for years to come."

Vacation Rental Guest, Walter

"everything expected and more!"

Vacation Rental Guest

"Our 15th year coming to OIB. Our 12th year staying at the Irish Gamble. 14 women + beautiful house + beautiful beach = many beautiful memories. Oh! If the walls could talk it would be a block-buster movie. Lots of memories, laughter and friendships formed that are unbreakable. We are so blessed you allowed us to share your house with us. We really enjoyed all the upgrades, the comfortable living areas, bedrooms, porches especially the fabulous kitchen and table that sit all 14 of us to eat, talk, share memories. Thank you so much!"

Vacation Rental Guest

"The weather was perfect! Some wonderful things we did: built a wonderous sand castle, fished, played, putt-putt, walked and hunted shells, played charades, ate well! What we saw and discovered: Caught 4 baby sharks, found sand dollars, enjoyed beautiful mornings and evenings. Moments & glimpses & little details that mattered: Had wonderful family time each day and night, took some great pictures. Some other thoughts: This house was the best ever! So much room and so well-equipped in every way."

Vacation Rental Guest

"I just wanted to drop you a note today, oh how much we enjoyed your house this weekend. Our son got married this weekend & we had the rehersal at the house and it was perfect. He is a navy seal and he had several seals here and it was a really special time. Your home is just beautiful and I know you must love coming to stay. I never got to sign your guest book but I wanted you to know how much we enjoyed being there. "

Vacation Rental Guest

"There are 17 of us and we fit well. We loved having a pool at the house and we also loved the pretty blur hammock. The decorations were great. BBE (BEST BEACH HOUSE EVER). Thank you for opening your amazing and beautiful home to us! "

Vacation Rental Guest

"The weather was: Wonderful, sunny and cloudy days. Some wonderful things we did: Surf, walking, shopping, reading, eating. What we saw and discovered: Some tv – football, basketball, dancing with the stars, the stock market documentary. Moments & glimpses & little details that mattered: Found a baby sand dollar and starfish. Some other thoughts: Again, we love this house more with each year. Thank you for a space to enjoy fellowship, meditation, laughter, and family life is good, no matter the weather, when you’re with those you love, the beach make sit better. "

Vacation Rental Guest

"My family of 5 has vacationed in Ocean Isle when I was a little girl. Now, our original 5 has grown to 17! This is the 1st year in a long time we all had the opportunity to vacation together again….And what a great time we had! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful beach home with us. From the moment we walked in the door to find the sweet treats you left and then looked up to a breathtaking view, on vacation was priceless! Can’t wait til next year. "

Vacation Rental Guest, Betsy N

"We had a great week at Irish Gamble July 2-9. All went well with no issues. The lady who answered the phone whenever I called is quite pleasant, accommodating, and responsive. You are fortunate to have her! Hope to be back next year!"

Vacation Rental Guest

"Another beautiful vacation for the Smart family. This is our 7th summer in The Irish Gamble and it never disappoints! This year the weather was amazing, the food was wonderful, and the love and fellowship we shared was, as always priceless! Our highlight of this trip was the engagement of Will and Morgan (7-24). It was a beautiful sight! As always, thank you for sharing your beach house with us. "

Vacation Rental Guest, David

"ONE OF THE HIGHLIGHTS OF OUR 75 YEARS. THANKS AGAIN FOR THE OPPORTUNITY."

Vacation Rental Guest, Betsy

"Our extended family has rented 381 West First St. for nine straight years, so obviously it fits our needs. It is a fabulous house with all amenities. We look forward to next year!"
