Romantic Getaway with a jon boat, Kayaks, and three miles to the beach

This cozy cottage with amazing reading retreat is perfect for the adventurer at heart. Waterfront with 2 kayaks and a small boat with oars (trolling motor and battery for rent). 3 miles to the Beach. We catch flounder, drum, crabs, etc from the backyard. Use the kayak or boat to explore a sand bar or just float around the Marsh. The location is amazing! Steps from the water. Our home is on a busy road so there will be some road noise, we proved sound machines if needed.
Small Fishing Cottage, two bedrooms, one bathroom. Great location if you like the water. Once you enter the home and especially the backyard you feel like you are in total peace. All rooms have smart tvs, that have Netflix, Disney, and Hulu already installed and ready to use. Full size kitchen with all the cooking utensils and pans you would have in your own home to cook that family meal or to prepare the fish you catch from the backyard.

The entire home is for your enjoyment.
You only have one neighbor next to you, I own that home as well and it is a short term rental. There is a large 8-9 foot privacy fence that separates the back yards so you won`t even see the neighbors.

If you like the water, or need to relax, then this is the place for you.
Please put Kayaks and paddles away after use and please tie them up.
Please tie the boat back up so it won`t float away at high tide.

Great location if you are interested in kayak fishing. For the cost and location, it is definitely good. The interior is a mix, there are some very modern features buts the floor was fairly damaged and there was a slight plumbing issue. Overall, would recommend it if your focus is on fishing or access to the water.

Cozy spot with easy access to water and Swansboro

Our family really enjoyed our stay at this little house on the water. The kayak was a hit with our little ones who also loved to watch the crabs scurry. Swansboro, with cute restaurants and shops, is only minutes down the main road on which the house sits. Would definitely recommend!

Comfortable and convenient

We enjoyed our stay. The owners were easily accessible for any issues.The back yard area is nice as it is very scenic, peaceful and private (there are neighbors next door, but separated by a high fence). Great place for the dog, and we loved throwing the net out for bait fish.It is convenient to everything.

It was a fun experience to stay in such a unique spot. My teen and I enjoyed the kayaks at sunset. And waking up to that view was lovely. Our hosts had a lot of nice touches with the coffee station, snacks and nice bath products. (And while the location is a little unusual, road traffic wasn’t really too bad with the air conditioning on.) it was really cool to stay right on the water in a former fishing cabin, while still being easily able to explore Swansboro, Cedar Point and Emerald Isle.

Amazing place!

This property was wonderful. It was clean and quaint. The hosts were awesome and easy to reach when needed. Due to the weather we were not able to take out the john boat or kayaks, but we will have to do so the next time we come. The cottage was perfect and in a great location, close to multiple things to do and see. The trip was awesome. Thank you

If you're looking for a quaint place to chill this is it. I brought my boat down but hardly used it because the provided kayaks are all you really need to go explore off the back of the property. Definitely recommend.

Cozy Waterfront Cottage

Wish we had more time to play with the kayaks and fishing equipment. My oldest son had fun catching shrimp with the casting bucket though. It was such a short stay, but we enjoyed the extras that were offered. The coffee bar was a nice touch too. Host was very responsive to our questions and needs as well!

Beautiful waterfront views

This was the perfect spot for us! It was easy to get to the beaches and also inland. There are a couple great seafood places very close by which made causal dining easy. The cottage was decorated well and had all the essentials. I loved being right on the water. The view especially at sunrise and sunset was gorgeous. I wish I could attach pictures of how beautiful it was. I really loved being able to go out on the water so the kayaks were a huge bonus!

Just what I hoped for.

Wonderful property. Just walk out the back door and fish right off the deck. I caught pinfish, spots, a bluefish, a puffer and a half a dozen puppy drum and black drum. There are 2 kayaks and a john boat available which offer good options. Jon is a top-notch host, friendly and helpful. Thanks for an excellent vacation.

Cute little home with a jon boat which my husband and children loved fishing off of. Only complaint was that the main bathroom light turns itself off after just a couple minutes. One of my children were scared due to it turning off while showering. Had to remember to turn the other light on.

Perfect week on the coast!

We had a wonderful time staying at this waterfront cottage. So much thought was put into the way it was furnished and supplied--from the very comfortable bed, to the well-equipped kitchen, to the snacks on the counter. We enjoyed the view and the opportunity to kayak out to Shark Tooth Island and pick up some prehistoric souvenirs! We sent pictures to our friends and family and they assumed we were on a boat given the proximity to the water. The host was organized and made sure we had all the info we needed to have a completely worry-free stay. This was our dog's first vacation and he enjoyed it as much as we did! Any concerns we had about the busy road were mitigated by the enclosed front porch and soundproofing that kept us comfortable and our dog well contained. We will definitely be back to this area, either to this property or another one owned by the same host!

Emerald Isle Stay

First off the property looked like the pictures and the host was on top of communication. There was everything you needed to be comfortable and the views were great. It was so much fun to watch all the little fish and crabs. Only things I would say is for the price if everything could be cleaned a little more throughly. The room off the living room was extremely hot and we could not get it to cool down, but it’s the middle of July. We also could not figure out how to turn off the bathroom light it just made it extremely hot. Only other thing is the busy road. At times it was hard to get out and you could hear the traffic in the morning.

The access to the water and the views were phenomenal. We loved fishing off of the dock and having our morning coffee in the cozy sunroom that overlooked the waters.
