Family-Friendly Private Waterfront Getaway!

3 Bedroom, One Bath Waterfront Home On Nelson Bay (Core Sound)
This sound-front home is perfect for the family who enjoys water activities such as swimming, fishing, kayaking, sailing, windsurfing or just relaxing while enjoying the spectacular waterfront view. The sound is shallow and kid-friendly and an ideal site for learning to swim and frolic in the water. For a couple, it's ideal for a peaceful, private get-away.

Private sandy beach, shallow water dock suitable for smaller boat, excellent fishing and crabbing right off the dock. Crab pots provided no license needed in NC for a crab pot tied to your private dock.

There is a nearby boat launch. Unspoiled beaches can be reached by a boat ride across Core Sound or by car on Cedar Island, 8 miles away. Ferry's are available in Atlantic or Cedar Island for day trips to local beaches as well as Okracoke Island (a fun day trip-take bikes).

Outstanding cuisine can be enjoyed 30 miles away in historic Beaufort.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a dining table.

Outdoor adventure

We recently stayed at Windswept! We had a wonderful time! The views are absolutely gorgeous. We all enjoyed fishing at the end of the dock. We brought our 14 ft boat and ventured over to Core Banks one day and found a bunch of conch shells. I also enjoyed walking the beach front every morning at the end of the board walk. We are looking forward to staying again soon!

This is like our 5th time here, first time with new owner. Our stay was great, sitting on the dock and just chilling is the best. Everything was as always, great and sometime we will come back. Our dog loved getting in the ocean and just having a blast. Kids as well.
