This house was very appropriate for our family of 4! It had a well stocked kitchen, comfy beds, wonderful screened front porch, reliable wifi, washer and dryer, easy access to the beach, quiet neighborhood with interesting parks! It rained for our first 2 days so we spent more time in than originally planned and this was very comfortable for cooking, games, and movies!! It felt like we had the beach to ourselves most of the times we went ...it was great!! Kristin was helpful with any questions along the way!! This was our second year to visit Emerald Isle area and this was our favorite!!
