Atlantic Beach Classic Family Cottage

Atlantic Beach, NC. Guests are sure to enjoy a memorable vacation in this cedar shake, all-wood interior, fully furnished, 4 bedroom/ 4.5 bath beach house. The master bedroom has a king sized bed, the others are furnished with a queen-sized bed, 2 twin beds and an extra large bedroom featuring 2 doubles. The house sleeps 8-10 comfortably. The indoor spaces feature original artwork, unique furnishings, and the kitchen is equipped with almost new appliances and cookware. Situated on the second row, the beach is just steps away. On the spacious front porch, guests can enjoy ocean views, cool breezes and lovely sunsets. And the best nap/ book reading in the world is to be found while lounging on the front porch hanging bed. There is also a large side screened porch, back deck & outdoor shower.

When not on the wide, soft sand beach (less than a three-minute walk), enjoy nearby attractions such as biking in various parts of Bogue Island, touring historic Fort Macon State Park, taking boat excursions (or your own boat) to Cape Lookout National Seashore and Lighthouse and other nearby islands, seeing weekly concerts at Fort Macon, visiting the colonial town of Beaufort and its waterfront scenery and restaurants, the NC Aquarium, and Morehead City restaurants and nightlife, savoring a Sunset drink at the bar located at the end of the nearby Oceana Fishing Pier which gives a panoramic view of the coastline, or water activities including kayaking, canoeing, and surfing.

The water remains warm enough for swimming well after Labor Day so consider a long-weekend as fall begins. In winter, enjoy seeing the sun set directly over the Atlantic Ocean due to the island's orientation along the coast and the location of the sun. A sight to see!

Second annual cousins trip
We had a blast. Everything you need is at this house, easy access to the beach, and quiet, safe neighborhood. You feel like you are at a family home, comfortable, clean, spacious, and close to stores and amenities if you need.

Family Wedding Weekend - Oct 6-9 2023
This property is as gorgeous and comfortable as the pictures show. It truly has an upscale, classic beach feel. There are three ensuites – the bedroom on the first floor can be converted to an ensuite using the pocket doors. It's not oceanfront but does have an ocean view from the front porch. There is plenty of parking – which seems to be at a premium in this neighborhood. Hannah, the owner, was overseas during our stay but was very proactive, making the check-in process extraordinarily easy. She was just a text away if there were any problems - which there wasn't. I highly recommend staying there.

Beautiful home
My family and I stayed in this lovely home this past weekend. We loved everything about the house. The porches are amazing, we ate diner on the screened in porch and drank our coffee on the front porch each morning. The kitchen is well stocked and we had everything we needed to be able to relax and enjoy the stay. We will definitely book again. Laura L. Chapel Hill, NC

We rented this house as we booked a fishing trip out of Morehead City. The location was a perfect combination for proximity to the beach and a short drive to the docks. Loved it!

Wonderful Beach Property
This is a wonderful beach property that is very close to water but also is convenient to grocery stores and other shopping. The home is large and spacious which gave us plenty of room to spread out. The property does have several sets of stairs but that is well documented in the property pictures. We loved the property and would absolutely stay here again on our next visit to Atlantic Beach.

This house is the perfect vacation place and provides great amenities. The kitchen is well stocked and the house is spacious and clean. The front porch is the perfect place for morning coffee or afternoon drinks. Enjoyed the bikes and beach chairs as well along with the porch swinging bed. Great for naps. Thank you Hannah, for a great stay.

Gorgeous house and great location
You can tell that the owners take a lot of pride in their home. It’s beautiful and has lots of personalized decorations. The house feels homey and every room has ample space. The beds are extremely comfortable with a softer king bed and firmer full beds for those who have a preference. The bedding is beautiful and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked and the layout of where things are in it makes sense. We had food delivered (door dash) a couple of times and had no issues. The beach access is a couple houses down and even though it’s public beach access, it felt very private with only a few residential neighbors being around when we’d go. The house is a short maybe two or three minute drive to Fort Macon and it’s definitely worth checking out. Definitely head into Beaufort for some quaint, local shopping! The only thing I’d caution is there are some fragrant oil diffusers that smell amazing but may be too strong for someone with fragrance sensitivities or it could possibly be an eczema trigger.

The perfect house for multi-generational family celebration
Our family had a wonderful stay. There was more than enough space for our group of 7 to not be crowded at all. Places for front porch relaxing to game night, puzzle building to quiet time to family meals together made for the ideal setting for a long weekend filled with celebrations.

Amazing Find
Beautifully located and decorated house in Atlantic Beach. Interior was well-decorated and made you feel like you were part of the family! Three different porches and an amazing family room made it easy to relax and unwind. Easy walk to downtown AC, and the beach is so close! We were very appreciate of the owners cleanliness and offerings. We will come back! Thank you for sharing your amazing house with us.

Labor Day Beach Getaway
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Surf Shack. The house is located on a quiet street just steps away from a beach access. The front porch was great for midday naps on the swing and enjoying the sunset. The kitchen was well appointed with everything you might need for making family meals. The house was very clean and felt like a home as opposed to a third party rental. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Charming house with special touches
This house has a great vibe! The variety of cozy porches to hang out is a plus. Having bathrooms for each bedroom is a bonus. The house is clean and the quality of linens was appreciated. We found everything we needed including a couple of things we forgot to bring in the pantry. There are some nice views of the ocean from the house and the neighborhood is really nice. We appreciated the close proximity to shopping and stores. The owner was excellent in communication. We would definitely want to come back again. One thing to note. We brought my elderly mother. The beds were a little high for her but she managed. The tub was also an issue for her but we used outdoor walk in shower and it was perfect! We were appreciative that there was a bedroom on the main level for my parents and the rest of us used the upstairs bedrooms. Each bedroom charming in its own way. ( do wish the VRBO fees weren’t so high, that’s the only bummer (not the fault of the house owners)

Amazing Property
This house was better than I could have imagined. Clean and felt like home, the big front porch was a hit for the entire family. The street is quiet with quick walking access to a wonderful beach. The house has so many amenities, with nice beach chairs, bikes and sand toys for our 3 year old. So many kitchen appliances and utensil included and hair dryers in every bathroom. The process of booking and communication with the owner was seamless. We are already checking each other’s schedules to plan a trip back to this house!!
