About this property

Renovated Cottage with Private Free Oceanfront Parking and Outdoor Shower

Exclusive, free, private ocean front gated parking lot with an outdoor shower and boardwalk to the beach. Avoid crowds, lines, and paying for parking! When headed to the beach with chairs, cooler, towels, etc it's nice to drive over and park ocean front! The house is 0.5 mi from the private beach access. So you can walk to it too. Our private beach access is just one block from the Bogue Inlet Pier with public restrooms, a convenience store, Surf's Up ocean front restaurant, tackle shop and excellent fishing!

The master has a tempur-pedic hybrid california king with a base for raising and lowering head and feet! There is now king in the first guest room and a queen in the second. New in 2023 a whole house water filtration and softening system. Kitchen and bathrooms remodeled in 2022. New appliances, cabinets, tile, kitchen countertop space tripled, master bath converted to a walk in shower, etc.! Brand new HVAC May 2022. The back deck and much of the backyard privacy fencing was replaced in 2020. In 2020, the entire private beach access boardwalk was replaced and the dock at the sound side Cedar Street Park was completely rebuilt. The sound side dock is just 0.2 miles from the house! This home was initially renovated in 2019 with brand new furniture, flooring and paint. While there will be a VRBO fee at checkout, there will be no extra fees from the owner for linens, cleaning, crib or high chair.

This property is thoroughly cleaned every week. Rest assured the house is disinfected including every light switch, door handle, etc!

Beautifully landscaped property with a very private backyard, large outdoor shower with hot water, large deck and gas grill. Sun room overlooking the backyard. One story, so NO stairs to climb! Master suite has a cal king bed and private bath, a king and queen in the other 2 bedrooms. Hampers in each room, separate laundry room and outdoor clothes line.

Roku TV's in every bedroom and living room with Cable TV, Hulu subscription on each TV for a large selection of TV shows and movies! Blu-ray in living room, high speed internet, modern furniture and decor, many games to play, fully stocked kitchen, plenty of dishes and cutlery to last the day .

Located in the heart of EI so you can walk to many shops and restaurants. Several grocery stores are just 4 minutes from the house. Walk to the sound front Cedar Street Park at the end of the street (0.2mi), sit on the bench at the end of the dock and enjoy our glorious sunsets! It's also ideal for cyclists...11 mile bicycle path. Bring your bikes! (rentals available on the island).

Linens included (bed sheets, blanket, 4 pillows per bed, towel sets, which include a bath, hand and wash cloth per person as well as bath mats are also included).

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.

Private, quiet, comfortable
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!

Great Host, responsive. Beach access via remote parking was better than expected and easy. Can walk to a fresh made donut shop from the property!

Fantastic home, fantastic location
We love this place!! This is our 3rd year staying here & can’t say enough good things. The house is setup really well to accommodate our group of 5 adults & 1 child. The outdoor space has a great deck w lots of shade for hanging out & meals, plus a great outdoor shower. The house is all one level & super clean. It’s in a quiet area and the beach is still easily accessible w the included parking access. This home will always be our 1st choice when vacationing in EI.

About the host

Hosted by Heather

Host profile image
I grew up in Morehead City, NC and moved to the capital for school and work. I finally fulfilled a life long dream and purchased a home ON the island! I am so excited to share my beautiful, lovingly renovated home and incredible beach paradise!

Why they chose this property

Privacy is a rarity on the island and you will forget anyone else is on the island when you relax in the back yard.

What makes this property unique

Ocean front parking is quite rare. Our private gated lot with outdoor shower and bike rack is perfect! Just a block from the pier means, bathroom and convenience store facilities are close by. Walking on the pier is free!

The Cedar Street sound front park is a short 0.2mi walk from the house and is perfect for sunsets against the backdrop of the EI bridge.
