Nice House Near the Beach
There were a few issues with the house that need some attention - limited propane for the grill, broken coffee pot, and refrigerator was leaking at the bottom, but overall, we enjoyed our stay and appreciate the hosts willingness to allow us to bring our pups. Access to the beach was a plus!

Take me back!
I can’t say enough about the hosts, Matt and Joel, and the great find that is this house. I can honestly say the hosts are incredibly kind, responsive, and professional and the house was amazing for my family’s weekend getaway. Things we look for in a vacation: a clean sanctuary space with proximity to the activities we traveled to experience and enough comfort and ammenities to be able to enjoy some down time or a rainy day in the house. Safety is also a must and a good location means some privacy and aesthetics. This house was all of that for us, especially in January when the weather chased us inside a bit. The gameroom was a hit with my teen boys and the comfort and serenity were exactly what us adults needed. The house comes with access to a private neighborhood parking lot and beach access. But most of the time we preferred walking to the beach, which was very doable. The setting is everything you’d want and expect from Emerald Isle. We enjoyed all the home had to offer and hope to come back soon.
