Beautiful home by the beach

The home was very clean and close walk to the beach. The only down fall was that there was little communication regarding needing to bring trash bags, shampoo, and other toiletries. We had one trash bag for a 4 day stay and 8 people. We also didn’t bring coffee as most places have a Keurig. We ended up buying coffee but the coffee maker was not really working properly for us. So we didn’t use it after the first day. All in all a great place but having the essentials of home would have been nice considering we were so far away and didn’t drive.

Awesome location

We had a wonderful stay and really enjoyed the house and location. Home was fully stocked, beautiful, short walk to the beach, clean, and a great location to everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again! We were all bummed to leave. Communication was on point so if you ever need anything the host replies quickly.

Beach Getaway

Overall the house was a nice spot for our family beach vacay. It was very close to the beach, had a lovely patio and deck, and was stocked with all the essentials. The cleanliness could’ve been a bit better, and small details like missing batteries on remotes should be addressed.

Excellent location and amenities.

Very smooth process for entry and departure. Everything was great quality, including the cookware! Hard to find pots and pans that are great to use in a rental. The screened in porch was used more than anything I think. Ample beach chairs, a wagon, and two Shibumi shades for the beach!! Will definitely stay here again.

Short Vacay

We stayed for a few days in late August. the beaches were great - almost totally empty. The house is a few houses off the beach - an easy walk and the host provided some chairs and stuff along with a cart to haul stuff to the beach. House was nice a clean and we appreciated that it was stocked with some of the essentials. Also, the screened porch was huge and was where we spent time when at the house.

Lovely stay at a charming EI beach house

This charming beach house is nicely situated in a quiet neighborhood with easy access to the beach via a private boardwalk. Very clean inside and well-stocked. The extra refrigerator, beach wagon and chairs were especially helpful. The large screened-in porch with dining area and fire table gathering area made for special evenings. We also enjoyed the private hot-water outdoor shower. Beds and linens were clean and comfortable. We were very happy with our stay!

Loved our stay

We had a great time staying here over the last week. Just a short walk to the beach with plenty of room for our family of 5. We really enjoyed having the screened in porch in the back and a nice view of the ocean from the front porch. Checking in and out was a breeze. It’s clear the property is very well maintained, clean, and well set up for a family stay. I’d recommend this property to anyone looking to visit Emerald Isle. We would love to come back in the future!

Amazing location and beautiful home. Communication with host could have been better!

This home was steps away from the beach! The location was my favorite part about our stay. The house was amazing and we really loved the porch! My only complaint is that the communication with our host was not the best. She said there was a welcome book with instructions and there was not. I communicated this with her and she did not address my concern. There are a few things that were hard to figure out without the welcome book such as: how to find the keys to the storage space that had the extra fridge and all of the beach chairs, bikes etc. and what the WiFi was and so on… one other complaint was that our reservation said checkout at 11 am, but then the host messaged me a checkout list the day before with the checkout time listed at 10 am. These complaints are things that could easily be fixed by the host to make the guests experience seamless. All in all, everything was great other than the communication with the host.

Nice Beach Home - As Advertised

We had a wonderful stay at this beach home. Everything was exactly as advertised and the pictures posted are 100% accurate. The communication with Jamie was prompt and professional. The bedrooms are laid out very nicely to give everyone their own space, the balconies (front and back) provide nice views, the beach is a very short and comfortable walk down the street. I would recommend this house and look forward to perhaps visiting again one day.

3 nights at Morning Mist

Comfortable house, well equipped, usually when we rent there are instructions about wi fi, TV etc, how to leave the sheets/ towels, etc. No cheat sheet but we figured things out.. My only complaint is that it was advertised as sleeping 10, but really only slept 8, luckily kids came and went, so it worked out fine.
