We have been renting on Emerald Isle for almost 40 years and Emerald Dawn is probably the best equipped and nicest place we have stayed. It is close to the beach, the furnishings are very comfortable, the kitchen is very well stocked, and there are beach chairs, toys, etc. etc. Thr location is great in that you are near all the shops and restaurants. We were 7 adults and were very comfortable the whole time.

Wonderful vacation spot!

This house was a perfect fit for our vacation. The ocean views and close proximity to the beach were perfection. Quick walk to the pier on the beach for icecream. We rented a golf cart and it was easy to get to stores and restaurants. The house was clean and a good floor plan for a large family. We loved it.

Perfect Family Beach getaway

This house was just as listed. Big, clean, beautifully decorated, with all the extras our family needed. Plenty of supplies were provided, both housewares and beach items as well as baby gear and toys - they've thought of everything. Our family loved the area and spent several days sitting on the beach, which was just a few steps off the back deck. We couldn't have asked for a better place to gather our children and grandchildren.

Loved our stay at this beautiful house and it was everything that was advertised! It was a pet friendly house, which was one of the reasons we chose it but when I got home had an extra 50 cleaning fee for excess dog hair! Would have done our own cleaning if we’d realized it but weren’t aware it was excessive!

The Perfect Escape

This beautiful place was the perfect escape for our family. Julia and her family have thought through all the little details to make your stay amazing - even down to a laundry basket in each room. The beds are so comfortable. You cannot beat this location - you can walk to most places. We loved it!
