The Emerald Isle area has many excellent restaurants, from seafood to steak to vegan. Most deliver or offer take-out so you can bring food home or eat out. The kitchen is fully equipped so you can also cook if you prefer. There is an ocean pier in E.I. a few miles away and they offer fishing 24/7 and have all required gear and bait. You'll see ocean para-sailing and wind-surfers. The area has several excellent public and semi-private golf courses nearby. Emerald Isle has abundant shopping and all required services. Make sure you see Civil War Fort Macon in Atlantic Beach!...morecollapse

                    My husband and I truly enjoyed our stay. Wonderful to fall asleep to the sound of the ocean, to wake up taking only a few steps to enjoy the sand between our toes. Quite time was great, close enough to small town dining and boutiques for shopping. Open kitchen is a great thing, never felt like we were doing kitchen chores! Owner contact has been easy and great, even called the morning we were leaving to wish us safe travels!! Was everything we hoped! Could very easily bring the family next time ~ that is if we want to share the beach with them!

                    Owner response: Thank you! I'm really glad you enjoyed your stay and I look forward to welcoming you back soon.

                    I spent my 47th birthday at this lovely place, listening to the waves roll in and out as I slept, watching the dolphins swim the horizon each morning and evening. In the late fall the sun crosses over the beach, rising to the left and setting to the right of the house, so all day you're bathed with natural light and solar warmth. The house was quiet, peaceful, and the beach relatively deserted. It was a good place to escape the noise of my life and work on my book. Most afternoons I sat on the deck for hours, staring out at the water, clearing my head and heart. There are great restaurants and excellent supermarkets nearby. The owner has been lovely to me, very responsive and generous with information and recommendations that made my stay stress free. I've traveled solo every birthday for the past nine years. I haven't ever returned to the same place twice. I've been to many caribbean islands, houses by lakes, etc., and so far, none of them have afforded me the peace and relaxation I found here. I'm sure Emerald Isle is hopping and quite lovely in the summer, but for me, this place will become a regular winter retreat. There's just something "right" about it.

                    My family stayed here in 2011 and we couldn't wait to come back in 2012. The owners had made a number of improvements and the property does not disappoint. I admit that I'm not always easy to please; I'm fussy about cleaning and appearance. Both times I was very satisfied with everything at this house. The owners are gracious people and easy to work with. The handyman who works for them was prompt, charming and very helpful. They tell me that they are planning several upgrades and I will be eager to see what's in store; we just booked again for 2013. The best features include the view, location, comfortable house and the outside shower is fantastic!

                    This house has wide straight-on ocean views and a deck walkway makes it easy to go down to the beach and back. If you're on the beach and forgot or need something, it is easy. House was clean and well kept. Everything we needed was there. Whole family (old & young) enjoyed the house and our entire stay. E.I. is a great vacation destination and I would go back to this place. The beach was not at all crowded and we were there in prime summer. Lots to do and we saw dolphins. Back in 2013!

                    We stayed in late Aug 2012, love the area, Emerald Isle is awesome, beach is great and the area is quiet, yet a 5 - 10 minute drive to stores and restaurants. The house was great, 4 comfortable bedrooms , Great VIEWS!! There was no one renting the other side of house, so it was amazing privacy right on the beach.. And it rained one day, but we made due by hanging out under the house and stayed dry..while enjoying the breeze, Price is very reasonable!!

                    We arrived the week of 8-18-12 and were lucky enough to be met by the owners. Very pleased at how well kept the house was. Everything was clean and we even had a new dishwasher! The kitchen was fully stocked with plates, flatware, appliances, etc. The outdoor enclosed hot/cold shower was the highlight for most in our party as we didn't have to track sand through the house. Great location on the beach and only steps from the ocean. The kids loved the deck and walkway to the beach. Hopefully if schedules allow, we will be back next year!

                    Stayed at Beach House July, 2011. The photos and listing are accurate. It's a fine house and a terrific value for the price. It is not a big oceanfront mansion, so don't look at several others at twice the price and think this will be the same. It may not be as big but it's the same beach, sky and breeze as the $10,000 a week places! My children loved the beach and we walked down a block to where there are lifeguards. That was nice to have. There are great seafood places in town. Don't miss the NC Aquarium a few miles away, Fort Macon, the Emerald Isle fishing pier and of course the t-shirt shops. If work allows I'll be there for the same week in 2012.

                    I enjoyed my stay at this rental in Aug., 2011 very much. It has a great view, nice deck, comfortable furniture and everything we needed to kick back and relax for a week. We did see dolphins 100' from shore. It was really nice to walk right off the deck onto the beach to play and collect shells. My children loved it, as did the whole family. As the Governator might say: "We'll be back!"

                  Why the Owner Chose Emerald Isle:
                  We considered a beach house in several coastal communities in different states before falling in love with Emerald Isle on our first visit in 2001. We immediately knew that the small town feel, lack of high-rise condos, vacation amenities, local friendliness and gorgeous uncrowded beach made this the place we wanted to visit again and again. We still enjoy it and you will too!

                  The Unique Benefits at this House:
                  One of our favorite activities is simply to eat most meals on the deck and watch the ocean, the dolphins, people enjoying the beach, and the sunrises and sunsets. There have been a number of weddings on the beach right in front of this house.
