Beach just minutes away. Gorgeous views Discover this waterfront beauty on the Crystal Coast at Still Waters, formally known as Skippers Watch.

Tastefully appointed throughout, boasting luxurious amenities such as brand new Memory foam mattress toppers, bamboo sheets, all season duvets on every bed, and plush bath towels. Wake up to serene water views from both the primary king bedroom and 2nd queen bedroom. Left your toiletries at home? Rest assured, we’ve got you covered with wonderfully scented shampoo, conditioner, shower gel and the like. Fully stocked kitchen with all the cooking and entertaining essentials to include a Blackstone grill at your disposal. Keurig with fully stocked coffee bar, crockpot, rice cooker, blender, and toaster just to name a few of the items. Plenty of spices and condiments as well. Board games, puzzles, and cards for inside fun. And Roku supplied for all the tv’s. Peace and quiet abound on the property. Take in the spectacular views on the wraparound back porch any time of the day. Sip on your morning coffee watching the sunrise on the comfy outdoor swivel chairs or enjoy that evening cocktail at sunset in the Adirondack chairs on the dock. Dine under the string lights on the covered porch and enjoy a fire pit on cooler evenings while star gazing. You’ll catch site of a multitude of coastal wildlife from osprey, pelicans, cranes, egrets, geese, ducks, and song birds. You might even catch a glimpse of the playful sea otters and porpoise’s in the protected sound. Looking at the water at low tide, you’ll see fish jumping and fiddler crabs scurrying about. On a rare occasion, you might hear a bit of rumbling coming from from a different type of bird and if you look up to the sky, you’ll get to witness of one of our countries most impressive Osprey’s, our US military Osprey aircraft which occasionally run maneuvers along with the Harrier and F35’s on the nearby Bogue Airfield. An incredible display of the sound of freedom. There are tons of family fun games supplied in the shed. Take in a game of corn hole, spikeball, horseshoes, or badminton on the expansive back yard. Enjoy getting on the water with multiple kayaks and paddle boards onsite which can easily be placed in the water from the newly installed kayak launch. Drop in a fishing line or tie up one of the crab pots from the sunny dock. Want to venture out a little further on the water? You can launch your boat or jet ski at the nearby public boat ramps and tie up to the dock when the tides are right. Interested in enjoying a first rate fishing experience inshore or offshore or explore the sand bar islands? Please inquire in advance of your stay to secure a reservation with one of our experienced local guides. Heading to the beach? It’s just a quick drive over the Emerald Isle bridge. You’ll find beach chairs, umbrellas, and various beach toys in the shed. A footwash is available to rinse away the sand upon your return. Be sure to check out one of the areas favorite locations, Carolina Home and Garden. Within walking distance, a re-imagined nursery turned into a magical garden wonderland where you can get fresh eggs, custom coffees, craft drinks, and food at the various food trucks on site. There’s a petting zoo and an Adventure park for the kiddos as well. Most every night of the week, they provide some sort of entertainment from family trivia, live bands, to music bingo. Walking the grounds, you’ll find an eclectic mix of decor in every room and a beautiful live atrium. Some of North Carolina’s most quaint, picturesque small towns dot the Crystal Coast with Swansboro, just a 15 minute drive and Morehead and Beaufort, 15 to 30 minutes respectfully. Tons of incredible restaurants to choose from offering fresh seafood dishes that are a culinary delight! Enjoy all that the area and this home has to offer when you stay at Still Waters. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Ice maker - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Service animals only (pets not allowed) ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Single level property - Smooth flooring in public areas - Thin carpet in public areas - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Kayak - Water sports equipment ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Unit size: 2,300 square feet ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Minimum check-in age: 24 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Pets Pets not allowed (service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees) ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome Note from host: Children should wear life preserver by the water. ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know Extra-person charges may apply and vary depending on property policy Government-issued photo identification and a credit card, debit card, or cash deposit may be required at check-in for incidental charges Special requests are subject to availability upon check-in and may incur additional charges; special requests cannot be guaranteed Onsite parties or group events are strictly prohibited Host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property Host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property This property is managed through our partner, Vrbo.
