Islandtime is a lovely beach cottage offering all the amenities of home. A screened-in shaded back porch provides a quiet area for relaxing after a long day at the beach. The beach access is less than a minute's walk from the front porch. Emerald Isle is known as a family town with generally uncrowded beaches, miles of bike paths, ice cream shops and natural areas. The NC aquarium is only 6 miles from our home and is wonderful for all ages.
If you enjoy kayaking, there are two kayaks available for use. The sound is just across the street and a public access allows for launching for a day on the sound of fishing or picture taking.
For those who just can't get away, Islandtime has FREE wireless and wired internet connections along with free long distance. Each room has its own TV including a new 42" in the living area. Plug your iPod into the stereo and enjoy your own music collection. Our home is dog-friendly, up to 2, with an additional $125 per pet nonrefundable deposit. Linens are not provided to keep the costs down, we recommend Island Essentials if you would like to rent linens.

Why the Owner Chose Emerald Isle
My husband grew up coming to Emerald Isle before the bridge was even built. He shared his passion for the small town and all its amenities. The best of both worlds, the sound and the beach are less than 2 minutes walk from each other in this ideal thin location on the island.
The Unique Benefits at this Beach Cottage
Within a short drive is the NC Aquarium, Fort Fisher, Swansboro, Bear Island State Park and Beaufort (a lovely boating town with neat shops).
Owner's Map of Emerald Isle
Rob and I were married on the island in 2001, with our 4 children standing at our sides. We love the serenity and peacefulness of the beach. Our home is a reflection of that enjoyment! Simple, clean and inviting.
