Great quiet spot at Emerald Isle.

Property is almost brand new and very clean. Check in was super easy. There was a ton of space for the price. Outdoor shower, lots of beach towels, and a huge master bath shower. One of the nicer Vrbo beach properties I’ve stayed at. Hosts were very helpful with suggestions for things to do in the area.

Great location!

We stayed with my two teenage boys who absolutely loved fishing in the sound. There is a public pier just one block away which is perfect for fishing and putting in SUPs or kayaks. The boys also enjoyed walking to the donut shop and the bait shop. The beach is also relatively easy. The house is new and clean with most everything you need. Perfect mid-week getaway before the summer season starts.

A Favorite for Sure!

House is fairly new & well stocked. Comfortable mattress & very nice Master BR shower. Convenient location for walking or biking. Loved the Village Market for brkfst or lunch. Fish Hut was a great find (shorter line for lunch). Owners were very helpful & close by if needed. So appreciated the massage recommendations @ Blessed Body Spa. Thanks again!

Bogue Fishing Trip

Honestly, did not expect as much as we got. Could not ask for a better property, or location. Absolutely fantastic house and as for myself, do not know of anything I needed that wasn’t already there except a nozzle on the garden hose but I understand why there was not one. LOVE this place and hope to stay again in future!! Host was so nice and helpful and the neighbors were like I have always lived there. (Wish I could) A+++

Beautiful and Central

We loved this property and our stay. Just as described, clean and neat. Walking distance to the beach and some of the best little restaurants in Emeral Isle. GREAT COMMUNICATION! I contacted the property manager at 6am after having to leave another rental due to lack of AC, and she not only answerd my text right away, but also made arrangements for us to check-in early (within hours) that same day She's an angel from heaven, Thanks to her, we're able to finish enjoying our vacation. I would not want to stay anywhere else in the future!

Hidden Gem

Who knew this neighborhood was back there? Not me! Hidden GEM! This house layout, location and feel were on point. It was EXACTLY what we needed as settled on our new home in NC. Will definitely recommend to others. I would give 10 stars if I could. The SOFTEST bedding and the most well thought out kitchen. I miss it already.

About the host

Hosted by Amy Knox Bookout

Host profile image
We moved to Emerald Isle in 2019 and that was the best decision we've made. We love the island and the people. We are just a few streets down from the property, so if there are any issues we will be able to address them right away.

Why they chose this property

This home is in the perfect sound side location. It's on a quiet street that is located walking distance to shops and restaurants. The private beach parking lot is a huge perk because parking at the beach is typically very limited. Our parking lot is just across Emerald Drive from the home. We have multiple showers at the parking lot as well. It is just a 5 minute walk to the sound side pier as well. We also just installed a large outdoor shower with Trex decking in June of 2022.

What makes this property unique

The home has an open floor plan with plenty of space to spread out. All linens are provided.
