Emerald Isle Oceanfront Condo at Pebble Beach. 3BR, 2BA.

Emerald Isle, North Carolina, United States

We strongly encourage our guests to purchase trip insurance in case their vacation has to be cancelled or altered for any of a variety of reasons. Consumer Reports recommends InsureMyTrip. VRBO also offers trip insurance. br brOur condo:brPebble Beach is a gated, oceanfront community located on the Crystal Coast, at the southern end of North Carolina's Outer Banks. Emerald Isle was rated the best beach in NC by USA Today. Our condo, D-101, is a corner, first floor unit, which is clean, nicely maintained and equipped, and recently renovated. We have comfortable furniture, two balconies, only a few steps to the ocean front pool, and only a few steps to the beach! brbrThe price is lower than almost any other comparable unit, since, being a first floor unit, the view of the ocean is limited--though the walk to the ocean is one of the shortest in the entire complex. brbrWe have local cleaners, maintenance people, and backup maintenance people to be available for any issues or emergencies. The owners' phone numbers are posted inside and we encourage our guests to call for any problems. We have keyless entry so you can go directly to the condo without waiting in line at the rental management company. And, upon departure, you don't have to go back to the management company to check out!brbrThe condo was recently updated with new flooring throughout. Well equipped kitchen with modern appliances and bar seating for four. Dining room seats six. Both bathrooms updated with complete renovation in past year. brbrThe master bedroom has a king sized bed with a firm, 12 memory foam mattress, an oceanfront and pool-front balcony, and its own full bath. Bedroom 2 has two twins and a balcony, and bedroom 3 has a queen sized bed and a balcony. Bedrooms 2 and 3 share a full bath. brbrLinens and towels are included. We provide a starter supply of toilet paper, paper towels, trash bag, and dish soap, but you will probably need to purchase more.brbrAmenities:brPebble Beach has an ocean front pool, a second outdoor pool, an indoor pool, and an exercise gym. brbrWe have an ocean front gazebo, multiple grills and picnic areas, multiple grassy play areas, two lighted tennis courts, a gated entry with guard house and on-site security personnel, and impeccable landscaping. We have an oceanfront clubhouse which is available for meetings, reunions, weddings, and other gatherings. brbrBiking: brWe have an 11 mile long, paved, dedicated bike and walking path, separated from the highway. Bike rentals are available across the street from the condo and the complex has multiple bike racks.brbrKayaking, Fishing, Boating:brThere are multiple kayak launch areas and parks within the city limits of Emerald Isle, including a sound front park with dock less than one mile away. There is excellent surf fishing right in front of Pebble Beach, and a great pier with legendary fishing and a highly rated restaurant overlooking the ocean one mile away. For those who enjoy boating and fishing, there is boat trailer parking nearby for a small fee. There is a full service marina approximately 10 minutes away, where a wet boat slip on Bogue Sound can be rented by the day or week. There are two free, public boat ramps on Bogue Sound, within a 10 minute drive, offering convenient access to Bogue Inlet and the Atlantic Ocean. It is about a 10 minute boat ride to the ocean from the marina and from the two public ramps. brbrFor additional information about our area, including shopping, restaurants, and activities, visit the Town of Emerald Isle web site. brbrbrNorth Carolina mountains lake front house:brWe also offer a 3 bedroom, 2 bath cottage, with private dock and boat slip, on Lake James, a pristine, 7000 acre lake in the mountains of North Carolina, where Last of the Mohicans and Hunt for Red October were filmed.

Email us for more detail.brbrThings You May Hear or See from the Beach House that Could Seem Strange/Interesting or Just a MysterybrbrWitnessing the Sun and Moon Rise and SetbrOur beach house is on one of the southernmost North Carolina Outer Banks islands and faces south out to sea. This means our beach runs east-west. Because of this geographic layout, we have several months during the year when the sun and moon rise and set over the ocean. The unique view of sunrises and sunsets can be breathtaking. Witnessing a full moon rising over the eastern horizon providing what appears to be a shimmering golden reflection path of sparkling diamonds to our beach house shore will just soothe your soul. All the sunrises and sunsets year round, especially when there are a few stratus clouds on the horizon in the direction of these events, can make you believe nature is painting these scenes just for you and your loved ones as “y’all” take it all in.brbrDeer in the DunesbrKeep an eye open for our local (almost tame) deer. They quite often cross our neighborhood streets and sometimes walk down them like they, too, are vacationers. We know, based on their tracks, they sometimes cross the dunes in front of our beach house at night. For reasons I don’t understand, they will occasionally walk down to the edge of the ocean before returning to their daytime bed down areas. Usually, they do not walk alone. Generally, there will be does, bucks and fawns in their group. They are truly wonderful to see.brbrPelicansbrPelicans are very large birds that fly most often in groups along the beach that rarely flap their wings. They use thermals to stay aloft, mostly from the hot roofs of beach houses. I bet that Orville and Wilbur Wright studied their abilities to soar along the Outer Banks of North Carolina many years ago. They fly so gracefully, including what is known as ground effect lift in aviation terms/aerodynamics to glide very low over the water. This beautiful flight is only interrupted by a quick climb to ungracefully dive into the ocean head first to catch a fish. Oh! By the way, I have only seen adult size pelicans. How can that be How can they seem to go from an egg to an adult without people ever seeing them in small and medium sizes I surely don’t know.brbrButterfliesbrOur beach house is on one of the few flyways for the Monarch butterfly (and other butterflies) as they migrate from Central Mexico to Canada and back to Mexico for the winter each year. When sitting on our decks, I have often had them land on my arms, legs, feet, and even my head as they rest a while along their journey. Have the camera ready.brbrDragonfliesbrLike the many species of butterflies, dragonflies pass through our front yard, or maybe it’s our back yard, depending on your perspective, as they migrate each year. From time to time they, like the butterflies, will land on you. Now, that is a real treat.brbrSea TurtlesbrThe adult female turtles come to our beach starting in May each year to lay their eggs in the sand and leave them to hatch out little turtles that crawl on their own to the ocean. You, too, may be so lucky to witness the hatching of the baby turtles and witness their trek to the water.brbrDolphinbrThe sight of bottlenose dolphin (not porpoises, that’s a different animal) in front of our beach house is truly fascinating. No matter how many years and times I have had the pleasure of enjoying their interaction with the sea and other dolphin, I can’t help from stopping what I am doing and take it all in again. They are truly smart and beautiful animals. If you get lucky, you may even see them jump high in the air and do flips or chase fish while surfing a wave with the help of the sun to enhance your view.brbrSound of the SeabrThe sound of the waves as they crash on each other and the beach can be soothing to the soul, even from your bed inside the beach house. I believe this is nature’s way of helping adults deal with their troubles of the day and help the children get to their dreams of the fun they will be having tomorrow.brbrRide the WavesbrYou can see any type of apparatus you can imagine in front of the beach house to ride the waves and water. They include surfboards, body boards, skim/boogie boards, paddle boards, kayaks, kite boards, Hobie cat sailboats, jet skis, and windsurfing, not to mention any kind of flotation device you can think of. Most of these items are available to rent and lessons are offered. Check the basket on the counter.brbrWhat You Can See at NightbrYour view of the universe as seen from our south facing decks over the ocean with no lights to interfere with your view can be breathtaking. Even if your knowledge of the cosmos is limited, you will be dazzled by looking edge-on at our own galaxy “The Milky Way”, the Moon as it goes through its fazes, planets as they appear to move faster than the stars and sometimes go backwards, constellations (Orion during the winter months is my favorite), and satellites as their steady star-like light appears to move rapidly through the stars. All of this plus an occasional meteor as you are laying on your back in our hammock can really open your eyes. brbrLightning Fireworks ShowbrOccasionally at night, you can be a witness to nature’s amazing lightning show display out over the ocean. These shows can usually be seen from March through October.
