About the host

Hosted by Amy Dunn

Host profile image
We live in Charlotte, NC but our second home is on the island every free moment we get! We have been coming to the island since 2007, bought our first home on the island in 2014, and bought this second home just this past July 2019. We have 5 children - aged from 25 down to 12 and 3 grandbabies, all of whom enjoy coming to the island with us.

Why they chose this property

This home is a dream come true - you don't realize how much the marsh, the birds, and the wild life have such a calming effect on your spirit until you are here and can experience it first hand. We can sit for hours on the decks or even from inside watching out the window for hours and it never gets dull. We want to share this amazing home with you and we know you will want to come back over and over again just like us!

What makes this property unique

The entire marsh side of the house is all windows - you can view from the harbor out to the Wilmington bridge, down to the other end of the marsh. The wild life viewing is unmatched!
