Still Charming

This was my family's third year to visit the Charming Cottage during my grandson's fall break. It was as charming as ever with a feeling of home since we'd been there before. Beautifully decorated and maintained, the cottage is located just a short walk from the beach, so that we can enjoy taking a quick walk down to the beach just to check out conditions or enjoy the sunset. The pool out back offers a great option to the beach. We'll be back next year!

Best vacation house!

Adorable cottage, perfectly clean, amazing location to beach and bike paths, awesome pool area, spacious decks and a cozy screened in porch...the list can go on. The house is decorated so lovely and in a quiet, safe neighborhood. My family enjoyed every minute of the house and beach and pool!! We rented bikes for the week so we could explore the area - so many places to check out as the house is in a GREAT location. Owners were available if we needed anything. This house was a blessing!

Return to the peaceful Cottage

Our second year in this lovely home and cannot wait to go back. Mike is so easy to communicate with. The house is so clean and has absolutely every and any supply you may need. Kids love the pool, proximity to the beach and the ability to ride their bikes safely all around the neighborhood and down to ice cream! Pool is majestic, bedrooms are comfortable and clean, porches surrounding entire house provide for so many places to relax or enjoy a good book or eat a meal outside! Thank you for sharing this home with us!

Relaxing Beach Getaway!

We loved this beach cottage. It fit our families needs perfectly. Cottage was very clean when we arrived. The outdoor living areas (deck/pool) were great! The beach was just a short walk. Street was very quiet which we loved. Will definitely be coming back in the future!

About the host

Hosted by Michael Oehl

I am recently retired from my second career and have decided to commit my time to helping visitors explore the Crystal Coast of NC. My wife and I have been married 40 years and have travelled and lived around the world, and consider travel our #1 hobby, with cooking being a close 2d (the kitchen caused me to fall in love with this home). We have 3 grown children. We live on nearby Emerald Isle but have always loved the community of Swansboro, and we finally found a home we fell in love with! We hope you love it too.

Why they chose this property

We have lived on Emerald Isle since 1991 and have been fortunate to experience the wonders of Swansboro since that time. We retired here in 2009 and decided to purchase this Swansboro home after falling in love with the home and its location.

What makes this property unique

An amazing renovation was completed on this home and it is fitted with the best of everything. It is luxurious yet charming; historical, yet replete with many modern conveniences.....truly the best of both worlds
