You can’t help but imagine all the potential fun in this gem of a home only a short walk from the Atlantic Ocean. Inside, you step into a living room with modern updates but plenty of casual, retro coolness. A wood burning fireplace and flat-screen intelligent TV and stereo promise cozy coastal ambiance alongside surf memorabilia and a comfortable collection of furnishings that inspire relaxation. Our home has been thoughtfully designed, furnished and appointed with everything you will need to feel right at home! I want you to feel like you're staying at your home away from home!

You can dine at the live-edge table near the fireplace or step into the more casual dining area in the kitchen with four seats at the breakfast bar. The living and dining room is flanked by two sets of French doors that offer double the outdoor options and tons of natural light. The completely equipped kitchen has an electric cooktop, convection oven, refrigerator, microwave and dishwasher; all you’ll need for casual dining for your hungry surfers. You can dine outdoors, too, in a pretty, private yard with tables and lounge space located on both levels. Follow the path to the dock for yet another spot to gather! Upstairs, you will also find two thoughtfully designed bedrooms and the freshly modernized guest bath.

Downstairs you will find a private primary suite, laundry room, den and game table that seats 6 or more. Books and games are supplied for your enjoyment.

You will appreciate the privacy of the saltwater pool, fire pit, covered porch and deck after a long day at the ocean! You can even watch the wildlife in the canal right from the living room! Three ocean access points are a short walk away - one with golf cart parking. The sound side location and access to Bogue Sound right from the yard make this an ideal place for your beach vacation. Bring your friends and family to the Surf Shack and savor the coastal vibe!

Just a short walk to the beach. You're about 2 and a half blocks away which is closer than some ocean side properties on the island.

A Vacation Rental Agreement and valid photo ID is required to book.

We follow the cancellation policy and strongly suggest that you purchase trip insurance for your stay. We do not refund outside our cancellation policy.

Although our home has been remodeled, it is not a new home. Please use caution on the sea wall. We like the quirky vibes of a classic beach bungalow. If you are looking for a brand-new place, this is not for you.

Tricks and tips to get the perfect rental home experience:

Sticking to a rental home budget:

• The earlier your group can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved very early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• June, July, and August are the most expensive months in Emerald Isle. To find the largest rental within budget, we recommend reserving in Fall or Spring months. You'll enjoy lower rates, greater selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at New Bern restaurants, beaches, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season.
• Some owners offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your group before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly costs between 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local New Bern visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental property doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides contain coupons for local tours, shops, and attractions.

Finding the perfect rental in Emerald Isle:

• Start by selecting your potential vacation weeks and a max budget.
• Note the number beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Waterfront Home with Private Pool - Short Walk to Ocean has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our vacation rental search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is usually accessible online. If not, contact the host before you book the vacation property. Note that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms.
• If your family is bringing pets, you must reserve a property that allows animals. Get details on breed, size, and type restrictions. Often, property owners charge pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a specific attraction or event? If so, use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available and included before reserving a rental.

More tips for your visit:

• Put the host's information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Don't be shy to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your vacation home while you are out and about. Keep your property safe!
• Note any damages to the property during check in, and immediately send them to the host. We specifically recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that can be useful if damages are attributed to your stay.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like unpleasant visitors disrupting your peaceful home. Practice the golden rule for best judgement. Happy residents may even recommend great local food and attractions you would have not otherwise known!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help. Who better to ask where to enjoy a steak with a view, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• When it's time to leave, take a walk-through to confirm you did not forget any personal items. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent feedback to stimulate future bookings. They'll be thankful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
