    Wonderful stay!! The house had all we needed plus more and was extremely clean and comfortable! We loved the location as we could walk to the pier at the end of the street to see the sunset or drive to the private parking area for visiting the beach! The lot was private and quiet with a nice deck in the back with an outdoor table and grill. The rooms and beds were very comfortable. 100 percent would recommend! Hope to return next year!

    This was our first time visiting EI, and our first time not staying on the beach, and we honestly didn't miss it. The beach is just down the street, and the private access was amazing. The sunset at the dock just down the road was gorgeous. Heather was excellent with communication, although we didn't need to bother her one bit during our stay because we had everything we needed, and more. My only suggestion would be shaded parking... and that's just being petty because we went during an insane heat wave and I have black leather seats We would not hesitate to book this home again!

    Excellent beach house! Very clean, comfortable beds. The location is great and we loved the beach access. I had a couple questions that Heather responded to quickly. Would recommend/stay again.

    We have never been to Emerald Isle. We had a great time exploring and seeing what the area had to offer. The house was perfect for our needs. Our daughter brought her best friend and they loved having their choice of rooms and all the amenities. Hurricane Debby cut our stay short because of my worry about all the rain. I highly recommend this house. So comfortable and well equipped. We will visit again!

    We had a wonderful stay at this well equipped home away from home. Great location to the beach, the Sound and the shops. The host has thought of every aminity you would need. Nice privacy fence, outdoor shower and patio area outside as well.

    First of, this house was beautiful and super spacious. Towels, kitchen essentials, etc were all provided and ready when we arrived. Walking to the beach is easy, as well as driving to the beach. Stores are close, mini golf nearby, go karts, perfect for your kidsos enjoyment ? The outdoor patio was also very nice, along with the outdoor shower to wash all the sand off after beach travels. The air conditioning in the home itself was superior and would freeze you out, so it was nice coming home in the super hot weather to cool off. The owner has good communication and is nearby to respond to messages. We had an amazing time, and would most definitely book this stay again. Thanks heather for such a great vacation and for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home! ? See you next year!

    Great location, great layout. Loved the private beach parking. Unfortunately, the house was dirty. Toothpaste spray on the sink, dust everywhere, dog hairs in the couch, filthy oven.

    We usually stay beach side but we are now rethinking our priorities. This property was very clean, well-equipped, and so peaceful. We love to cook and the recently updated kitchen was perfectly apportioned for big dinners and quick lunches. The updates in the master bath were thoughtful and convenient. The double cherries on top of it all was the private beach parking and beach access, and the super-fast responses to any and all questions we had (which were very few) thanks to the clear communications from the owner. We look forward to booking again!
