The perfect home away from home for your vacation. Our large, comfortable family cottage is outfitted with everything you will need while on vacation. This house is perfect for multiple families with children as we have a large loft on the top floor that has its own bathroom and sleeps 8. There are 4 additional bedrooms, all with Queen beds.
Mere steps from the beach, our second row house has both ocean and sounds views. Two porches on the oceanside feature rocking chairs and ocean views. There is a large, stainless grill perfect for entertaining!
The main floor features a great room with ample sitting room, TV, a large dining table, and French doors which open to one of the porches. The kitchen is a cook's dream: gas stove and oven, granite countertops, a large double sink, and side-by-side refrigeration. Our family loves to cook, so we think the kitchen will have everything you need and more! If cooking isn't your thing, there are MANY great restaurants nearby with options for all tastes and price ranges.
All bedrooms feature comfortable queen beds - these are not your average rental mattresses. One bedroom with attached bath is located on the main floor, three bedrooms are on the second floor, one with attached bath, and the loft on the third floor with bath has 3 Queen beds and two twins.
The second floor features another sitting room with a large couch, a large flat screen TV mounted on the the wall (with HD cable), and French doors which open onto the second porch. There are three bedrooms on this floor, the master with attached bath and two others with a shared bath. The washer and dryer are also located on the second floor.
The third floor is a large loft with with 3 queen beds, 2 twin beds, and a bathroom. The bright loft has built in drawers and a closet. The loft has great views of both the ocean and the sound!
Our family has enjoyed Atlantic Beach for over 70 years. We built this house for our family and others to enjoy, so it has comforts and touches that most rentals lack. We have games, books, and beach chairs for your enjoyment. An enclosed outdoor shower helps you clean up before coming in. Cars can park under the house and behind the house. 6 cars fit easily (more could be accommodated). We have unique hardwood floors throughout, which are made with wood that was refurbished from our family's farm in eastern North Carolina.
Atlantic Beach and the surrounding area has much to do for any age group. It is also a wonderful place to visit in the off-season.
You won't be disappointed with our home. We hope you will find yourself Atlantic Beach-bound soon!

As always the owner was delightful and made every effort to t make sure my family had a wonderful stay. As I have pets and teenagers, finding a vacation spot that works for us is difficult. This is our second year and we hope to make it a third. Altogether, we had 3 dogs (1 Rottie and 2 Basenjis) and 8 teenagers including ours and friends.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, pet owners, families with young children, girls getaway.

Had a wonderful time at the beach and spending time with family. The house was very spacious and clean. The beach was in walking distance of the house and gave excellent views throughout. I highly recommend this property and hope to return next summer.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, pet owners, families with young children.

We had a wonderful week and thoroughly enjoyed this home! The house easily accommodated 4 families of 9 adults and 4 children. The house is very spacious with plenty of room to spread out. We enjoyed being steps from the beach access- you literally walk out the back door and cross the street (not a busy street at all!). The house was cute (think vintage Martha Stewart style) and very clean (this from a self-proclaimed neat freak!). The owners were accommodating and easy to work with. No complaints at all! I would definitely recommend this home to vacation in!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, pet owners, families with young children, girls getaway.

We spent a long weekend here over the Halloween weekend. The location was perfect, just across the bridge to the island and walking distance to the circle. Just a row back from the beach! The house had a wonderful open floor plan and plenty of rooms for the 8 adults, 3 kids and 2 dogs that spent the weekend. Hard wood floors made for easy cleaning, and everyone could talk as dinner was being prepared in the kitchen. The kids loved the kite festival and everyone got to go to a Halloween carnival in Emerald Isle. Weather was a little cool, but kids in winter coats and bare feet digging holes in the sand made for some great pictures! The owners were very responsive to all of the questions I had before arrival and made everything so easy. We will definitely call them again if we come back to this area.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, pet owners, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car, adventure seekers.

Thank you so much for helping us to have a week-end full of great memories. We had an absolutey wonderful time at the beach July 4th week-end! This beach house is top-notch, enough room for all 14 of us to move around with out being in each others way. The kitchen was great, had everything we needed, we ate most meals right there so that saved us alot. The owners of this house are extremely nice & understanding! We are already looking at when to come back. The only thing missing at this house is a hot tub, which could be put in the storage/carport area underneath. We didn't take our dog because she had puppies recently but they do allow pets, so hope to take our basset hound next time. We had a mixture of ages from 9months to over 50, we were down for one in our group turning 50 on July 2, also for Jason Michael Carroll concert over in MHC, & Mary Selvidge accousitc show at McCurdy's in Atlantic Beach. In our group we were from Rocky Mount, NC - Bailey, NC - Middlesex, NC - Nashville, NC - Goldsboro, NC - Dunn, NC - Asheville, NC - Wake Forest, NC. Being able to watch the fireworks from the top deck was fantastic, got great pics. Thanks again & hope to see you again soon!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car, adventure seekers.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2009
About the owner: The house is owned (and managed) by 2 sisters and their spouses. We have 6 children, and 5 dogs total. We love Atlantic Beach and have been enjoying our 2 homes in AB for years!
Why the Owner Chose Atlantic Beach:
Our mother's aunts built a house nearby following the Great Depression - it was the 11th house on the island. We built this home for overflow from the other house! Our children grew up at Camp Seagull and Seafarer as well.
The Unique Benefits at this Cottage:
We love to relax, cook, grill, eat out, boat, and take walks on the beach.
