Linens, towels, and kitchen basics, shower basics are ALL included -no additional costs!
We want your family to have a great, fun beach vacation on Emerald Isle and come back next year. We've got beach chairs, a cart, a shade nija canopy and a BBQ grille for you to use. Various beach toys, plus washer/dryer, outdoor shower....
Our comfortable beach home is 100 yards away from access to a peaceful beach on a peaceful cul-de-sac. Complete decks on both floors with plenty of seating and ocean vistas/sea and hear the waves. 4 bed/3 baths in ideal shape - 2 queen bedrooms with ocean view, king bedroom with en suite bathroom, and 2 twins downstairs mean there's room for everybody. High-speed internet (30 Down/5 up) and all TVs have Roku attached.
New (2025) crossover to the uncrowded Emerald Isle beach. This little group of homes has its own public entrance to the beach with NO car parking (golf carts are ok). The Western Ocean Access beach is an painless walk to the right if you want a life-guarded beach, another coffee shop, a pizza place, and more.
Absolutely No Smoking or family pets.
This is the East side of the duplex, with an additional parking space available. The West side is also rented, no smoking or events are allowed on either half.
Check-in at 4 pm or after and check-out at 10 am on departure day.
Details about the unit
The middle floor has a enormous open kitchen and dining area with seating for eight—two sliding doors to access the porch with cafe table, outdoor couch..
The top floor has 2 queen bedrooms with access to the deck with seating and 1 shared bathroom. The primary bedroom has a king bed with a private bath.
Covered parking for 1-2 cars plus a sizable driveway with ample room for parking.
Washer/dryer and propane grille are available.
There is a doorbell cam for package safety and security. We can turn it off during your stay or leave it on - whichever makes you the most comfortable.
Beach!
We have a collection of beach chairs, a cart, “floaty things”, some sand toys, 3 sit-on-top kayaks, and a shade awning for everybody to share. Things break or get added as the season goes on, so you never know what treasure in in the "Beach Box."
Beach Access: There is public beach access 1/2 a block away. Lifeguarded beach is just to the right by the Western Ocean access beach once you hit the sand, or stay in the uncrowded section immediately over the walkway.
Fishing: The Bogue Inlet Fishing Pier is a 1.6-mile drive or a 1-mile walk on the beach to the east. Surf fishing is trendy especially when the beaches are peaceful.
Do keep an eye out for rip tides on any North Carolina beach.
Sand! Our cleaning team works hard, but please know that the wind and wet toes bring sand everywhere. Rinse your feet with the hose, or use the outdoor shower!
Kayak tours/rental and a surf shop are also within walking distance just at the entrance to our street.
Biking & Walking
Emerald Isle is bicycle-friendly with bicycle paths along the major roads and simple bicycle rental if you cannot bring your own. Bicycle or walk to the Emerald Plantation Shopping or Food Lion each morning to pick up a coffee or a treat. It's less than a mile away.
You can walk comfortably to the pier via the beach (about a mile away). Emerald Isle Woods Park is also about a mile away and has a pretty view of the sound at sunset, a fishing pier, frisbee golf and walking trails.
Theres a great playground just down the road near the EI Community Center as well.
Family Fun Activities: Right around the corner you'll find
Fun World go-carts & amusements, Salty Pirate waterpark, Emerald Forest Mini-Golf – all very close. Check for hours.
Hot Wax Surf and Paddle Sports Units about half a mile away has units available.
Golfin’ Dolphin is across the bridge and down Rt 58 ( 3 ½ miles total) - mini golf, sky trail, go-karts, more
Emerald Isle Woods Park – down Coast Guard Lane – disc golf, woodsy hiking trail, striking sunsets from the intercoastal pier.
Pine Knoll Shores Aquarium is located about 15 miles away
Eateries in the Emerald Plantation Shopping Center:
Burger place (Hwy 55 Burger, Shakes, and Fries)
Pizza place (Michelangelo’s). Saturday nighttime is completely jammed. Telephone far in advance!
American-style restaurant --Rucker Johns -everybody can find something here, and it gets good reviews
Breakfast at the Beach!
Giovani's Brooklyn Bagels - till 1pm - fresh yummy, in the back of Emerald Isle Plaza
Flip Flops Donuts - till 12 - made right on site, amazingly good independent donut shop
Village Market - breakfast and lunch, sundries, counter service. Popular
Trading Post - want something more fancy? Breakfast/brunch, lunch, dinner. Check the menu, and go early, it is popular!
Date nighttime? Caribsea is just off the main road , and there are tons of choices in Swansboro, many with vistas of the river out to the ocean.
Food/Grocery: Food Lion and Publix in the close by (0.6 miles, an 11-min. walk) Emerald Plantation Shopping Center. The prices are reasonable. Note that they are swamped on Saturday when new people arrive. And all those folks can quickly empty the fresh veggies and fruit.
Lowes Foods (3.2 miles, 11 min drive) - A trip across the bridge; usually not necessary. They will shop for you and do delivery, however.
Piggly Wiggly (7 miles and 12 mins. away from the home): A convenient stop on the way in if you are coming in from Jacksonville. If you are coming in on a Saturday or Sunday it'll be much less busy.
Shopping: There is plenty of shopping on Emerald Isle and right at the Emerald Plantation Shopping Center with beach wear, book store, jewelry, movie theater... Not to mention beach “superstores” like Waves, etc.
Closest drug store: CVS Pharmacy - Photo too (1.1 miles, 3 min drive)
Check-in/check-out: Standard Check-In time is 4 pm and check-out time is 10 am.
Beach Towels: Please bring beach towels. There isn't time to turn around the home for the next guest and clean beach towels.
Food in the House: We've tried to stock the kitchen with necessary silverware and cookware. If anything is missing, please tell us so we can address the problem. You will also find standard spices, common items (oil), and some standard refrigerator stuff.
There should be coffee pods for the first morning, and a Mr Coffee as well. And tea bags!
Thus you will find some items in the refrigerator. These items are left because when we have rented, we have been frustrated that cooking is hard without them and we end up doing additional runs to the grocery store. Please feel complimentary to use anything you find. If you have food you don't want to bring home and won't spoil in the next few weeks, feel complimentary to leave it. (We clean out and refresh these items each summer, don't worry).
Next Door: Since this is a duplex we ask that folks be respectful of the families that are renting the other side of the home and our co-owner expects the same of their families.

Emerald Isle rental property booking tips and tricks:
Getting the best rental home value:
- Reserve your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Winter holiday gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
- June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Emerald Isle. To get the best value, consider changing your family's Havelock vacation week to the Spring or Fall months. May, September, and even October offer great temperatures, fewer crowds, and reduced traffic.
- Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your family qualifies for a discount.
- Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
- Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guide magazines contain discounts for local tours, shops, and attractions.
Finding the perfect rental:
- Begin by choosing your the best vacation week and a max budget.
- Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Easy Beach Access & Ocean View! 4Bd\/3Ba -family-friendly, Walk\/bike to shops has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
- Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally available online. If they are not listed, contact the property manager before reserving the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks.
- Some rentals allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property management company about pet restrictions before booking.
- Looking for specific amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities.
- Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
More tips for your visit:
- Get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental.
- Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
- Lock your rental home while you are out. Protect your property!
- Make a record of any damages to the property during check in, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain time stamps that are very helpful if damages are attributed to your stay.
- Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are an incredible resource to find the best local beaches.
- Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best breakfast in town, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
- Don't leave anything behind! Just before you drive away, take a walk through the rental to reconfirm you've collected everything. Make sure to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
- Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
- Did your family have a terrific vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide comments. If your rental property and/or property management company was fantastic, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
