Nestled third row from the ocean, this sweet seaside cottage is four houses from the beach, with easy access to surf, sand, and sunshine on North Carolina’s beloved Crystal Coast. Location & Vibe Atlantic Beach is one of those rare places that’s as unspoiled as it is beautiful. The beaches remain pristine, the ocean sparkles with the sun, and the vibe stays effortlessly relaxed—no high-rises, no crowds, just salt air and southern charm. Spend your mornings walking the shoreline in search of seashells, and your evenings watching the sunset blaze across the horizon. The Space Small but roomy, this coastal cottage is thoughtfully designed for easy beach living. Bedroom 1: Queen bed Bedroom 2: Twin daybed with trundle Bathroom: Walk-in shower The open-concept living area and kitchen make it simple to cook, connect, and unwind—whether you’re whipping up breakfast before a day in the surf or winding down with a coastal cocktail in hand. Outdoor Living Step outside and embrace the laid-back Atlantic Beach lifestyle. The home comes equipped with patio seating, a charcoal grill, an outdoor shower, and a shed stocked with beach essentials—chairs, toys, and a wagon to haul it all just a quick walk to the shore. Enjoy quiet mornings, festive cookouts, and cozy nights beneath the stars. Walkable Fun & Local Attractions You’re perfectly positioned to explore the best of the Crystal Coast—from ice cream shops, local boutiques, and beach bars to Fort Macon State Park, the North Carolina Aquarium, and scenic boat cruises that showcase the area’s wild horses and dolphins. Atlantic Beach offers the best of both worlds: small-town charm and plenty to do. Why Guests Love It Prime walk-to-beach location (3rd row!) Bright, clean, contemporary beach interiors Family-friendly layout Outdoor grill & stocked beach gear Outdoor shower for rinsing salt and sand off with ease Close to restaurants, shops & attractions Whether you’re planning a romantic weekend, a small family vacation, or a quick getaway with friends, AB Sea Digs invites you to relax, recharge, and experience the simple joy of the Crystal Coast.

Nov 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great location. House was comfy, felt like home, and great fenced backyard for our dog as well. Super fun and close walk to the amazing beach. Had everything we needed, host was super nice and communicative. Short drive to Beaufort too. 10/10 We would love to rent again when we come back to the area. ##### Andrew Z. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2025
