A nice place
This is generally a well cared-for property, The beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked. The downstairs bathroom was a bit cramped and outdated, but clean and functional. The living room was pretty spacious, with comfortable sofas. The screened-in porch could use a good cleaning. The exterior stairs and bannisters leading to the main floor are in pretty rough shape, and we got splinters holding on to the railing. This is a problem if you're trying to balance yourself while bringing up groceries. One other minor complaint is that the floor was a bit gritty/sandy. Otherwise, the house was very clean. The neighborhood is fine--there are more trees than in other parts of Emerald Isle, and the beach is within walking distance. there's a nice bike path leading to the Coast Guard station, and a small nature park with nice trails close by.

This was truly the perfect stay! I’ve been visiting Emerald Isle since childhood, but this experience topped them all. Being so close to the water with such a thoughtful and well-equipped setup made it incredibly special. Everything—from the seamless communication to the smooth check-in and check-out process—went above and beyond my expectations. It honestly exceeded my dreams!

Great Beach Vacation Home!
This is a great home in a good location. It's near many good restaurants, grocery stores, shopping...and only a short walk to the beach. The house is very comfortable and well equipped. The check-in process was easy. Communication and responsiveness with the owners is rated 10+. We highly recommend this beautiful beach home to others and would definitely like to stay there again!

Just Right
This house was just right for us, with the location of bedrooms and bathrooms. The view from the porch was nice because you're looking at woods. Everything we needed for cooking was there (except for pepper), and we really appreciated the beach equipment and wagon. The beach was a bit of a walk, but certainly doable, and we could drive to everything we wanted, from Publix to the Aquarium to a variety of restaurants.

Good Option for Shorter Summer Stay
This property worked well for our family. We love Emerald Isle. There aren’t a lot of rentals that rent for less than a week during the summers, so this was a great option for us, as we only had 3 days to spend in Emerald Isle. It would be nice if the property included a beach push cart with big wheels to push stuff to the beach in. It would be nice too if the rental included bicycles. Overall we would stay at this property again.
