Although Ocean Glen is secluded and quiet, it is not off the beaten path. Within one mile there are restaurants, amusements (miniature golf, bumper boats and go carts), shops, kayaking, parasailing, jet-skiing, gas station, library, and post office. Also, the North Carolina Aquarium is only half mile away, located in the Roosevelt Preserve on the bay side of the island. They offer varied activities all year round for all ages (the On- Board Cruise is our favorite) plus walking nature trails.
We started coming to Ocean Glen as renters in 1991 with our young sons. We liked it so much, we kept coming back (sometimes twice a year) until we finally purchased our place in 1996. We have tried to make our beach home a pleasant and relaxing place to be. Please e-mail us with your questions or if you want to see additional pictures. Come give North Carolina’s Crystal Coast a try. We know you’ll like it here and look forward to visiting again and again.
