Second Stay
We were happy to return to this beach house! We noticed some renovations which was a nice touch. We enjoyed time with the family making memories. The main level of this home is great for gathering. The kitchen is open to the dining area which is open to the living areas. It’s a home with a big heart! We did have to replace a seashell lamp due to a kiddo bumping into one but the host was so gracious and we easily found a perfect replacement! We would return again.

Great property, great price, great location. We had a bit of trouble checking in but Margaret was very responsive. Property is a 5-10 min walk to the beach, is tastefully decorated and well equipped/stocked. Our family went with another family and had a great time. Would stay there again!

The house was very cute and spacious. It was a 5 minute walk to the beach which isn’t bad and is nice to have the outside hose & shower. We drove to Beaufort NC a couple times to take a ferry, only a short 40 to 45 minute drive. We did need to contact Margaret once and she was very responsive. We would stay here again.

Great Beach House!
Perfect location, very clean and spacious with room for everybody. The downstairs quarters were great for my teen son and friend. We did a golf cart for the short drive to the beach as we had a lot of stuff to carry. Beautiful home with cooking utensils, books, games, a grill, festive lights on porch. Great family time!

Perfect Vacay!
We have zero complaints, the space was spacious & open, plenty of room for the 6 of us! The downstairs apartment was perfect for our teenagers, with it's own entrance & outdoor shower right outside the door... We didn't hav to buy any extra TP or paper towels, ect, very well stocked! It was clean & comfortable in every way, with about a 1/4 mile walk to the beach, but we loved the exercise & enjoyed walking to the pier every day. We made good use of the beach wagon & umbrella. A good restraunt & an amazing Italian ice joint made that walk worth it! We would definitely choose to stay here again in a heartbeat!!

Week at EI
Good location and the cottage was very, nice. Only issue was the 4 digit code that was requested via the VERBO email was not activated, but the owners activated it remotely in a reasonable amount of time, so we were not locked out too long. Down stairs bed cover was dirty, it had pet hair all over both the bed and the pull out?? Upstairs was perfect. Neighbors across the road had dogs that barked at anything that moved on the road and it was a busy road so that was very annoying. They did make attempts to quiet them but it was an everyday occurance and that alone will keep me from renting the place again. I don't go on vacation to listen to barking dogs

Welcome Home
We rented this beautiful home during our stay in the area to welcome home our son from 7 month deployment. The house was absolutely perfect for our family with plenty of room to just hang out as well as proximity to restaurants, the beach, and grocery stores etc. It was nice to have the use of beach chairs and sand toys as the weather was so nice while we were there. Margaret is a great host and was very helpful answering all our questions and gave recommendations when asked. We would definitely stay here again if available!

Review of Beach Loving
Great location, just a short walk to the beach with toddlers. Had a slightly bumpy start, but the home owners responded VERY quickly and graciously. We had four adults, three-year-old twins, and a one-year-old, and had to do very little to child-proof the place. Well-stocked with paper goods, dishes, etc.

We had a great vacation
We stayed for 1 week- had a great time. Owner was exceptionally responsive to concerns/questions. We have been all over NC coast and this is on our top 3 list. If u have a family- would recommend renting golf-cart for beach to and from. We lugged surf boards and gear to beach- it’s a short walk- but everyone agreed that golf cart is a plus. House is clean- very open floor plan- we will stay here again.

Fabulous pink house
This property was wonderful for our stay at Emerald Isle! It had a lot more room than we expected , and it was a very easy walk to the beach. Beach chairs, toys, and a beach cart were provided which made our beach time with younger children very nice. This place was just perfect for our family vacation with 4 toddlers and 6 adults!

Great location and well stocked house
Overall, we had a great stay, despite a few challenges with the house. The pluses: great location, close to the beach and an easy walk ( paved, you can bring a cart, semi shaded). The beach was wonderful, clean and not crowded, close to a fishing pier and small local restaurant on the pier. The house was extremely well stocked. We seriously had everything we needed in the kitchen. Having access to a French press and coffee grinder was wonderful, as we like good coffee. The living room and dining room areas are beautifully decorated and cozy. Sun room and screened porch were great. We also enjoyed the outdoor shower. It shows that the owners put a lot of care into the decor. The house is also close to grocery stores and restaurants and a coffee shop. The challenges: some parts of the house could use a refresher/ deep cleaning. There were a few issues with the cleanliness of some areas, and the owners were responsive to our concerns. Also, guests are expected to make all the beds upon arrival with provided sheets. That was a surprise to us (and the sheets are kinda cheap). The downstairs apartment is also quite humid. I know we are on the beach and it's hot, but it was not comfortable and we had to reconfigure our sleeping arrangements. If you are relying on the downstairs part, this is important to consider. The rest of the house was very cool and comfortable however. And yes, as someone else has said, a few bathroom rugs would have been nice. With a few additional touches and updates, this house would be perfect.
