Cedar Island Beachfront Cottage

Cute little house

We had a great time staying here at Cedar Island. Home is very close to the beach and has amazing views off of the back porch. Host was super easy to communicate with and gave great tips and recommendations on the area. 10/10

Very clean and very nice

This is a perfect place for a peaceful getaway! The swing bed on the porch is great for afternoon napping. The island is very serene with beautiful views both at sunrise and sunset. The cottage is clean and well equipped. I would definitely stay there again!

This was an ideal getaway: cottage was lovely, beautiful scenery, beach, and sunsets. So peaceful and like a lot of other reviewers, we loved the swinging bed on the porch for naps, reading and just listening to the birds and the ocean and wind. Feel rejuvenated. Very responsive host.

Yes it was well stocked

Amazing place. Was great for brining our little one to the beach for the first time. Quiet peaceful. Clean rooms the loft upstairs has amazing views. The swinging bed on the porch is the perfect spot to watch the sunset across the sound. We will be back. Thank you.

Always a good time

What a lovely house! We had a fabulous time enjoying the beach nearby, watching bird and frogs on the screened in porch, and loving the quiet sounds of the ocean. This was a great vacation, the kids loved the sound and we had a blast exploring Cedar Island, still untouched by a lot of commercial development and hopefully staying that way!

Great little place! Very close to the private beach, family walked there in 6 min. Had coffee on the shore for sunrise. We only stayed 2 nights and could have done weeks. Brought all our own food- perfect location if you’re not looking to go out to restaurants. First host that actually responded to messages promptly! Thank you!

Beautiful property. We enjoyed the peaceful location. The host was kind and helpful.

This was our third time at this cottage; while Cedar Island is somewhat remote (it's a gorgeous hour-long ride into the main towns), it is a terrific central base for a wide range of day trips. Ocracoke ferry station is at end of street, making for an amazing ride, lunch, beach trip, and walk around the historic village. Tryon Palace is an easy drive on a cloudy day that isn't good for the beach. Cape Lookout is a marvelous trip for shelling and solitude. Beaufort has wonderful restaurants and boat rentals, along with excursion boats. Emerald Isle beaches are excellent. On Cedar Isle itself, there are wild ponies and cows to be seen on the long walkable beach. This is a great location for a couple looking for privacy and a week-long getaway.

We loved this little cottage on the sleepiest little stretch of coast!

Great cottage close to ferry, quiet beach, and horse stable.

This was the perfect cottage for unwinding and relaxing. It’s a lovely location offering serene walks on the beach at sunrise and sunset. The screened in porch and bed swing provided the perfect setting for morning coffee and evening chats.

Wonderful lodging for the traveler who wants a quiet and scenic location. Cottage is remote with a scenic drive to reach. Short walk to a quiet wide-open beach. Enjoyed evenings on a lovely large screened in porch. Easy private parking. Interior was comfortable and clean. Outdoor shower was great when returning from beach. Tiny kitchen but has all one needs to cook.

Nice spot, relaxing location

Very first time seeing snow at the coast , duck hunted for two days, quiet area and comfy house!

We loved Heather's cottage, it was clean and just as advertised. Our favorites were watching the sunset on the porch, taking walks in the beach and horseback riding just down the road. Highly recommend, if we ever get a chance to go back to NC this cottage will be the place we'll book for sure!

Born and raised in NC, I have never been to this area of our state. It is beautiful - stunning. Not having any true commercialization eliminated the standard tourist noise. The house was lovely. It has a very very small kitchen so plan accordingly. The views were spectacular. Our only regret is not being able to bring our family dog. That amenity becomes a showstopper for us most of the time.

Incredible

Our stay was wonderful! Everything in the house is as pictured, no surprises. It was very comfortable for the two of us. The beds and furniture were comfortable. Some tips that others might find helpful…we had very high winds for a few days and you could feel the house swaying while you’re laying in bed. I learned through a quick google search that this is completely normal for a beach house on stilts. Just a little scary if you’ve never experienced that before! This is an isolated area, not much around nor many people around if you’re here during the week (at least after Labor Day). Perfect if that’s what you’re looking for, a little lonely feeling if you like seeing other humans on your vacation. The house does not have a blender, so no frozen margaritas for us :( But it was very well stocked with everything else we needed. We couldn’t find any directions for the TV, but we think it is all just streaming channels through the internet. The movies would sometimes cut in and out due to weak internet connection, but it was doable. It’s good to take a vacation from television anyway, and if you bring a good book you won’t miss it at all. We thoroughly enjoyed the screened porch with the rocking chairs and swinging bed! Dinner on the porch watching the sunsets (and sometimes the storm clouds) were awesome 💙💙💙 K & J

Exactly what we were looking for! Secluded and serene. Quick walk to the beach or ferry. Cant wait to go back! Heather was communicative and timely! We had absolutely no issues. Place was clean and welcoming. Perfect home away from home

This Cedar Island cottage was just what we needed to get away from it all. Clean, quiet, cozy and well appointed, a perfect escape from crowded beach towns.

The house was exactly what we were looking for. Quiet, private and clean. Also very close to beach access (also quiet). We definitely plan on coming back!!

The home is beautiful. Location is amazing. I would recommend A LOT of bug spray. The misquotes are the size of your hand and everywhere. If you are looking for a quite vacation this place is perfect
