Family Entertainment Beach House, Hot tub, Nature Park, Fire pit, Pizza Oven

Perfect place for us to stay and have our son, his family and dogs visit. We felt very comfortable and at ease. The property has seen some love. We liked that, made us feel like we were house-sitting. I especially enjoyed turning on the electric fireplace in the evenings.

Seemed to be a safe and peaceful neighborhood. Our stay was good.

Spent 2 weeks with 4 adults and dog, overall great stay. Host is super good with communicating and the house has lots of amenities. Quiet hours are 9p-8a if I remember. There are some restrictions to pets, such as not being on furniture and the risk of noise complaints for excessive barking but if you travel with your pet often this is a nice place.

Nice home close to the beach. We rented a golf cart for the short trip back and forth, which in itself was fun. The back yard was awesome and everything needed to make the best of it was provided. Made pizzas with my granddaughters that turned out very ugly (LOL), but incredibly delicious wood fired! Cut through the back yard to a beautiful hiking/disk golf trail that is partially ADA. Really a family fun time!

The house was clean and well stocked with linens and snacks which was great for kids. We did find ants in the house and a few roaches outside around the hot tub. Overall it was a good stay but not convenient for beach access unless you have a golf cart. There is public parking available about 5 miles down on the main strip.

The main reason for our stay there was that it was not a hotel or condo environment and it had a hot tub. The first thing we encountered was a master bedroom that smelled like urine. We the ventured out to the front porch where my wife caught her footvon a nail that was a quarter inch above the floor and there were several like that. When we went to use the hot tub the water level was about down to the seats so we had to fill it back up whiched caused us another 36 hours before the temperature was back up to par. Oh the water level was down 6 - 8 inches when we left two days later. The listing said that they provided the fixins for the pizza oven. They did but it was all expired and we had to go out and by our own. They also had a tier stand that they stocked up with snacks for you to enjoy. ALL the snacks except the small bags of chips ahoys were expired. 2024 expired!!! The fans in the master bedroom and one other bedroom could not be ran past low speed because anything above that the fan sawyed and rattled so loud it was inbearable. Last but not least the A/C was not working. It would not cool the house during the day and the set temp would not be reached until early AM like 3:00 or 4:00 AM then it would steadily rise as the outside aircrose. Oh, property location. You practicall had to drive everywhere because if you rented a golf cart ( we did) you could not get anywhere with it as you werent sllowed to drive it on the toad that took you into town so that was a waste

Had an amazing stay, enjoyed the hot tub!!

This home is in a really cute neighborhood with easy access to amenities around Emerald Isle and Croatan forest

We had a wonderful stay in Emerald Isle with the perfect home base. The beach was beautiful and sparsely populated, a manageable walk away though we enjoyed renting a golf cart and I’d highly recommend that for families with children. The house was the perfect size for our family and well appointed with nice extras that had the kids happy from the moment we arrived. The pizza oven was a fun dinner night and we regularly enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. The tree canopy over the backyard was a great escape from the sun. Great amenities all around make this a gem! The smart lock stopped working mid trip and the previous week’s storms had left some branches and trees down. Just mentioning these to the owners resulted in quick responses and seamless remedies. Their staff is great. A great place to relax and enjoy the outer banks!

My daughter and I have been coing to Emerald Isle for years, and love staying along Coastguard Road. This was our first visit to this property and we loved it! The house, the ameities, the neighborhood were wonderful!

The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. We drove up and it was like one of those movie scenes where the pictures do not match the actual situation. The gutters were full of trees and plants and the paint/ trim was in need of attention. The backyard was peaceful and lovely except for the poison Sumac and poison ivy we spotted. The Sumac was at least three feet tall and ready to spread. We found the deck to be in need of attention. The loveseat was covered in dirt and cute little green frogs under the cover. We went inside and everything looked nice and tidy. It wasn't until we started using things that we realized how badly this place really needs a deep cleaning. There was mold around the shower fixtures, the furniture had sand on the fabric. The pot and pan storage and small appliances were all dirty from use with crumbs and black chunks on the bottom of the cabinet. Even the Keurig was dirty and not cleaned. The tea kettle was greasy and the dish drain pan in the sink had gray residue in the bottom. We bought corn and burgers to use the grill, but the grill ended up being filthy from use and it would not start. We decided to use the oven, but when we turned it on it was smoking. We thought about making pizza but the oven needed cleaning and was full of ashes. We didn't try the hot tub because we didn't trust the tub would be chemically correct. The air stopped working for a while but eventually came back. Overall, though, we enjoyed the peacefulness of Emerald Isle.

This was the perfect spot for our dog Tucker’s first beach vacation! The house was located in a quiet neighborhood that allowed for daily walks which he enjoyed. The house was also very close to many restaurants, shops, and the beach. The house was the perfect place to come back and relax after a long day out in the sun. We can’t wait to come back!
