The house and property are outstanding. We would highly recommend this to folks interested in a sound-side vacation (also a short walk from the beach). The views from the house are breathtaking. The amenities, like the kayaks, paddle board, decks, dock, and outside shower are great. The sound, nearby islands, and marshy area between the house and dock are great for bird-watching, seeing a host of other wildlife, fishing, crabbing, etc. It is a very peaceful place (e.g., not on a busy road), but is close enough to easily bike to shops, etc. I wish that we could have stayed longer. ##### Ray O.

Our kids grew up in Florida and we relocated to South Carolina a few year’s ago. We try to get back to FL to visit family and go to the beach but it’s ridiculously expensive and so far to drive and we wanted to explore somewhere closer. We chose Emerald Isle and couldn’t have had a better experience. The property was very affordable and private and had breathtaking views. Teresa was more than accommodating and very prompt to answer any of our questions and to give recommendations as far as local things to do. We had an amazing day finding shells at Fort Macon, and visited NC aquarium which was surprisingly nice.The property was pristine and the listing pictures don’t even come close to doing it justice.

Also saw deer, a fox, and some big rabbits. Careful if you want to dock a boat, there's only about a foot of water at low tide. We were OK with a skiff but a vee hull could be tricky.

May 3, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Waterfront Home! This was my family second time staying in this home. Teresa is a great host. She replied to messages very quickly. Highly recommend this home for a large family. Plenty of space for everyone. We loved the dock for fishing. We will definitely stay at the property again this year. ##### LaDonna G. Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jenn K. Nov 28, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Exceptional\*\*\*\*\*\* The house & location is wonderful! The views of the sound were awesome. The walk to the beach is an easy 10min walk. Our trip started out great when the host graciously allowed us to check in early. The kitchen is very nicely stocked & was perfect to provide Thanksgiving dinner for my Marines/ family. We were pleased to find Corn hole, fishing poles, a hammock & other games in addition to the kayak, paddle board & putting green. Everything was clean, plenty of towels & it was nice to have "starters" of toilet paper & soaps. We would definitely love to return. ##### Jenn K.
