Downtown Swansboro is 1/4 mile away. If you have a boat you can drive to Swansboro, tie the boat to the dock and enjoy a delicious meal. If you pull a boat, getting into the driveway with a trailer can be a little tricky but it can be done. We have pulled our 20ft dually, even a 32ft camper in there. 3 miles to Emerald Isle beach, 13 miles to Camp Lejeune. Every now and then on a King Tide the water can rise to about an inch on the driveway, but recedes quickly with the tide change. I. The washer and dryer are located in the bunk house next to the main house. It is included with your rental. II. There is a full size futon and twin bed, Window AC unit, and full bathroom in the bath house that you are able to use. We recently installed a 120` projector screen for your enjoyment. III. Swimming is recommended on the right side and at the end of the dock. The current is very strong at times. We require anyone 14 and under to wear life-jackets. No diving allowed. Lastly, it can get very shallow on the sides of the dock at low-tide.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Host was amazing! Answered questions quickly and they truly thought of everything for our stay. Beautiful place - definitely wanting to come back during the summer months!!
My stay was amazing here. I loved the scenery and the privacy in the back. The house was very clean and made me and my guest feel like we were at home. The house isn’t far from plenty of restaurants to eat at. I loved house the house came with the bunk house for people to stay in also. The owners provided shampoo, conditioner and soap in each shower.
Beautiful sunset views from the hot tub or firepit. Private dock with direct access to the ICW and a quick boat ride to the ocean, small islands and restaurants.
We had a wonderful weekend trip at this property! The sunset at the dock in the back yard was lovely and the house was a quick drive from the beach. The host was accommodating and quick to respond.
The property was very family and pet friendly! Contact with the host was great! View was amazing even in the rain. The house could have used a bit more thorough cleaning as we found socks under beds, and in the pull out couch and some dishes were dirty when removing them from the cupboard but overall we could deal with it. There are only 3 bathrooms.

Liked: Check-in, communication
Disliked: Cleanliness, location
If you like to fish, boat and want direct access to the highway then this place is OK but if you care about house maintence, quality furniture and fixtures, cleanliness and road noise then think twice. This is an old property for sure as stated in the listing and the floor is squishy in many places and should be repaired. I'm not going to list all the problems we had but I've addressed them with the host and hope he follows up for the comfort of future guests. He was also responsive to our cleanliness issues and did refund our cleaning fee since we spent much of our first day cleaning and sanitizing.

I am so sorry about the issues you encountered, they have all been addressed as we shared with you during your stay. we blocked the house and replaced the shower and fixed all the issues. also, put in a new sleeper sofa. thank you again for choosing our home. Safe Travels!
We really enjoyed our stay. The location was great with views of the water on both sides of the house. We were very close to activities and restaurants nearby. Hopefully can book a longer stay later.
The communication and check-in was a breeze. The view was an instant mental reset, especially at sunrise and sunset! Very safe and relaxing atmosphere. The table tennis was entertaining for all ages. The kitchen and sink are generously sized. Will likely be fixed by busy season but. a couple of pointers to stayers in the near future: the ice machine ?may not work well? (or could've been user error or maint needed)front bathroom toilet isn't broken, just jiggle the handle after useI only saw 3 bathrooms (all with showers) if that matters to you : it worked for us :-)
The property and surrounding areas contributed to the making of wonderful memories. The shopping, fire pit, hot tub, and beautiful sunsets have us looking forward to return visits!

Great stay! Super close to everything and the hot tub was perfect for a chili night!
Bedrooms were comfy and having the large kitchen was perfect for our taco themed birthday party!
Excellent communication from the owners was great! Would definitely book again!

Stayed for one night for a short business trip. Hot tub was much needed for relaxing after our day and the living area was very inviting to sit and talk and play games. Great little spot for what we needed!

Thank you Heather for choosing our home, I hope you will consider visiting again. safe travels
Great vacation home right on the water. There were only 3 of us but would be great for a larger family. Owner was very responsive to messages and made sure we had everything we needed. Will definitely be adding this property to places to stay when we visit the area again.

We had a great stay! The property was lovely and exactly what our family was looking for.
We had a great experience here! We spent a lot of time at the end of the dock watching boats, dolphin, and baitfish go by. Easy access to Swansboro gave us plenty of dining options to choose from and lovely shops to visit. Thanks for a great trip.
