This property got 11 stars out of 10 in my book. Very clean and the host was very responsive and helpful. It is very spacious and great for the family. Also pet friendly, my dogs are house trained so I’m sure they loved it too.
This was exactly what we were looking for, a beautiful home we could enjoy! Our family vacation, with our two college age kids, was a perfect blend of being a house that they wanted to be in and the quiet location close to the beach and activities. Watch the host video to get a sense of the vaulted ceiling and decor in this new house. Yes, an equipped kitchen! The host, Amie, was top notch, just the best, and quick with communication. Neighborhood is perfect for quiet walks. We were thankful for the beach chairs and towels. All four of us enjoyed the games and the guitar available in the living room. We recommend this place and hope to return.

Thank you for sharing those pictures. I'm so glad you got to see the neighborhood deer! We look forward to hosting you again!
This was our third time coming to NC for our summer family vacation and first time at Emerald Isle. Our main reason was to vist with family near by. This house was PERFECT! Extremely clean when we arrived and came with everything we needed!! Dishes, spices, cookware, beach chairs, family games. The list could go on and on. The communication with the host was great! The check in process was the easiest it has even been for us. If we come back to this area again this will definitely be the house we would get again and again!
