Golf cart and bike rentals, boating, fishing, sea kayaking, golf, and great restaurants are just minutes away. Each summer the town hosts free weekly music events. The historic and charming towns of Swansboro, Morehead City, and Beaufort with their additional restaurants and amenities are all just a short ride away. In Beaufort, you can take a short ferry ride to Shackleford Banks, an unoccupied and unspoiled barrier island populated by 130 wild ponies, for a fantastic hiking tour or picnic lunch.

I would recommend this rental to anyone! Spacious, clean, and the very best view of the ocean! We saw dolphins each day of our visit and the second story balcony allowed for great viewing of the sunrises, sunsets, beach and water.
We truly enjoyed spending the week in this beach house. It is comfortable, clean, and the location is incredible. The owner of the property was quick to respond when I had questions during our stay. This is a great place to stay on Emerald Isle.

We are so happy to hear you had a wonderful time. We hope you can stay again soon!
We stayed in October during the off season and had a wonderful stay. The neighborhood was quiet and the weather was incredibly beautiful. We loved sitting on the lower and upper decks, both of which have wonderful ocean views. The pelicans and sea gulls privided constant entertainment and we saw porpoise just beyond the breaking waves on our last full day. I would definitely stay here again.

We are so happy that you have had a wonderful stay. We hope you come again soon!
Our host responded quickly to our queries and concerns, the house was clean, the upper deck a heavenly retreat in the evening, lovely beach access. One bonus: beds already made; after a 5-hour drive and schlepping everything upstairs into the house, we found that so welcoming! We oldies had a wonderful time!

Thanks for the kind words. We look forward to your next stay.
Loved how close we were to the surf!! Usually have to bring the kitchen items to cook but all items were on site. Lots of entertaining choices between sand games (bocce, jenga..) and kids toys. Large decks to relax after spending hours on the beach. One of my best vacations!!

We are excited to learn that this was one of your best vacations. We are happy to have hosted you and look forward to your return soon. Thanks for the kind words.
A wonderful location. Right on the beach. All the rooms were clean except the downstairs bathroom that had a musty smell and some mold on the ceiling. Told the owner and he said he would have it taken care of. Besides that, a very comfortable and convenient place to stay. 2 miles from a Dollar General if you need something.

Thanks for your feedback, we will use this in enhance the property. Apologies for the downstairs bathroom ceiling. This has now been addressed. That occurs at times due to humidity that builds in that room. Sorry for the inconvenience and we hope this will not hinder your return. Thanks for allowing us to host your vacation and we hope to see you again.
We absolutely loved our stay! The house was amazing and the first floor bedroom was perfect for my elderly parents. The beach access was as promised and the views were beautiful from the balconies! Neill was a delight to communicate with, extremely prompt with responses and reached out to make sure things were going well during our stay. We are hoping to plan another trip later this year and will absolutely be booking this again!!

About the host
Hosted by Neill McLeod
We are natives of Raleigh NC and purchased this house in 2015. We have remodeled it completely inside and out to ensure the smallest detail was considered. We are continuously looking for ways to improve the beach experience, ensuring every decision made compliments the last. Our goal is to make this house feel like a home. We hope you love it as much as we do and provide us a 5-star review. Thanks for considering our beach home for your next vacation destination.
Why they chose this property
Simple, oceanfront with all the amenities you would expect. We have been traveling to the NC coast all our lives. Before purchasing this property, we had vacationed in Emerald Isle for 4+ years. Once we decided to buy a place at the beach, we took a long weekend trip over Thanksgiving and traveled the entire coastline between Atlantic Beach and Sunset Beach. The goal of the 3-day long adventure was to try and "rule out" Emerald Isle as a purchase destination. However, (as we suspected it would) the trip RULED OUT ALL OTHER BEACHES. There is nothing that can compare to the emerald waters and the east-west layout of the island. Where else can you see the sunrise and sunset on the same day right from your deck or balcony? We hope you find as much peace as we do in Emerald Isle.
What makes this property unique
The home offers a covered oceanfront deck from the 1st-floor living area and oceanfront decks off the two upstairs bedrooms which are conveniently joined by ocean front stairs. The patio under the house provides a private setting to relax and grill your daily meals. The under-house hammock offers the quiet opportunity to read a good book or a place to take a lazy afternoon nap to recover from the morning fishing excursion. We provide ring toss, giant jenga, bocce, and corn hole for your outdoor enjoyment.
