House and location was wonderful. Beach access was across the street and new walkway is very nice. The house is in a quiet location and the beach is not too busy. We had a great stay and would highly recommend.

We absolutely love this house! The location is perfectly situated between the busier area of Emerald Isle and Indian Beach! Across the street with very little traffic, right at the beach access, and with awesome ocean views. There is more than enough room, decorated beautifully, and fully stocked with everything you need (lots of pots, pans, mixing bowls, cutlery, everything). We got the linen package and had more than enough towels & linens for the very comfy beds! Loved this place so much, reserved it again for next year!! The host was awesome to work with, and responded quickly (even though we didn't have any issues). I can't say enough good things about this house and the host!

My family and I loved our stay! Easy access to the beach. Ample space for a large family to spend time together but also have space to relax alone. The top deck was wonderful to sit on with the cool ocean breeze and a pretty view!
