The Sandlot- OCEANFRONT House w/ Pool & Hot Tub, Amazing views. Beach access.

Host was very responsive and had great communication throughout stay. Home was beautiful and clean. Would definitely love to go back in the future.

Beautiful house. Perfect for a two family group vacation. Enough togetherness with enough privacy and separation for everyone to feel comfortable. Loved the location. Beautiful beach. Pool and hot tub were great amenities. Donated a frying pan and some drinking glasses, as kitchen was short on those. Otherwise, perfect.

Overall the house was perfect for our gathering of friends. The house was clean, the view was great and the walk to the beach was short. I would recommend that the grills get replaced. The propane grill was not cleaned and looked like it was time to replace it. The charcoal grill was ok but again needed a cleaning.Stephanie was responsive and attended to our needs.

This house is an absolute gem. Aaron and Stephanie are fantastic, you could not ask for better hosts. This house has great views, great layout and PLENTY of parking which is so difficult to find down there with big houses. Usually, you have a house that can sleep 22 people and have a driveway big enough for 4 cars, but not here. There is a gracious amount of room for parking. The Sandlot offers 8 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, 2 kitchens, great hang out area on the back porch, heated pool, hot tub... this house definitely has everything you will need! The Sandlot is a great option for your EI stay!! A

The host was very welcoming

The location. Pool and hot tub were a hit and the pool company came several times while we were there. The house was not very clean and we had to recast all the dishes before using. Also one side of the house had most of the kitchen supplies so we had to keep taking things back to our side. It would be nice if the cleaning people or those there before us would have split stuff up. Made it hard particularly in the mornings to make stuff whe. You discovered you did not have a dish or something to make an early breakfast. We had a great time and would stay again but I did think the house keeping could have done a better job

We had the most amazing vacation here! The whole place is extremely calming, with a superb pool and hot tub that made it feel like a true getaway. The walk to the beach couldn’t be easier, it’s right on one of the best stretches of beach, and the lookout is so extraordinarily beautiful. One of the highlights was the master bedroom, you can literally see the beach right from the bed, like something straight out of a movie. Everything about this place is spectacular. We felt so cozy, and the beds were unbelievably comfortable. Hands down one of the best stays we’ve ever had.

We love staying at the Sandlot! This was our 3rd year renting this cottage and we have already booked it again for summer of 2026! We are a family of 8 adults and 7 grandchildren- the layout of the rooms/ bedrooms is perfect for us. The close proximity to the gorgeous beach is a plus, along with the fenced in pool. We highly recommend this cottage to rent!

Easy access to beach, beautiful view, heated pool big hit with all! Great time.

The property was great. A wonderful location with easy access to the beach. We would visit again.

In our 25 years of vacationing in the area we have never had such trouble with a rental. I contacted the host immediately upon arrival about the filth and the problems. She told me to contact the service company & schedule service for all the issues. We shouldn't have to spend our vacation time scheduling their services. Everything should have been perfect before we arrived. Our children didn't want strangers in while their children were there. Nor did I. I continued to message her and VRBO. Neither her nor VRBO helped. Large roaches were inside & out. Hanging fly strips full of bugs on deck. Ants in the kitchen. Rat bait box under the house surrounded with sidewalk chalk. Grill not usable. No locks on back sliding doors & side east door is broken. Had to clean all the utensils, pots and pans before use. The sink in the kitchen would not drain. Dishwasher not bolted to cabinet. Mold & mildew in the bathrooms. Fitted sheets put on inside out, flat sheets not tucked in, bedspreads dirty with spots on them. Top bunk beds covered in dust & some kind of dead bugs. Air vents are rusted & covered in dust. Air conditioners on the walls covered in dust. You have to go outside under the house to do laundry & only 1 washer works well. There is exposed Romex wire in the laundry room,which is a real danger. Rusted beach chairs not usable. I have many pics but can only post 8. Beach and pool were beautiful but every family should have a clean, safe place to vacation. This truly was not it.

Lots of the little things just not right - the hot tub didn’t work, the grill was nasty and unusable, there were red ants all over the pool deck, half of the house had a mildewy/wet-dog smell to it, and the sliding glass doors were so grimy and weathered in the track system they were very hard to open and close. It took several phone calls to the management company, and messages to the owner, to finally get someone to come out to the home. They were not able to fix the hot tub, they had one can of pest spray which didn’t put much of a dent in the ants, they sprayed WD-40 on the sliding glass doors but that didn’t improve the ease of opening. They did clean the grill good enough to use, so some credit there I guess. If you are looking for a lot of bedrooms right on the water with a pool, and you don’t care about the details, this house is sufficient for that. But for the price we paid, I expected better.

We were able to spend an amazing week with my children and grandchildren. Weather was beautiful, spent everyday at the beech and the pool. Laughs, good food, great views, wonderful home and Awsome experience. Highly recommend and we will look to stay at this home ago. Thank you

Did not live up to a high end place for money we paid. Sliding glass doors ocean side were a huge struggle to open and with broken locks. One shower had standing water which was resolved towards end of stay. Mold on fence and siding. Ants a big problem around pool. Would not stay again.

Wonderful home for our group! Everyone had the space they needed and the views and serenity were amazing! There was an issue with the pool heater but the hosts were very attentive and accomodating. Great vacation!

We spent a week at Sandlot. Excellent location. The views from the decks were fabulous. The pool and hot tub was an added bonus. Plenty of space for our group. We breakfast on the west side and dinner on the east side. Our only suggestion is need better cookware. Bigger frying pans and updated cooking pots and storage bowls with lids. We would definitely stay here again if we visit Emerald Isle.

There needs to be more glasses in both areas. There definitely needs to be wine glasses...there were absolutely no glasses appropriate for wine. Clearly, people rent both sides: one side had all the plates, the other side had more than its share of pots. Very frustrating. (We did try to leave with both sides equally distributed with glasses and dishes.) Honestly, if every bed is filled, there are not enough dishes for everyone. That said, we did enjoy the cottages. The beds were comfortable and it was clear that the owners had spent a significant amount of money fixing the place up.

The home is beautiful and comfortable. Master suites have an incredible view! Spent a lot of time in the pool (heated) and hot tub. Plenty of room for everyone (10 adults) to live comfortably for 4 days. Kitchens were well equipped and plenty of bath towels provided.

All amenities we’re wonderful and worked perfectly!!
