This means TWO kitchens, TWO family rooms, and TWO laundry rooms each with a washer/dryer set.

The POOL can also be **HEATED** at an additional cost. Please inquire in advance of your stay if interested to get pricing for the number of nights!

A covered gazebo leads to the private beach access.

The private oceanfront pool and hot tub with arguably one of the best views they can offer, overlooking the ocean as far as you can see , with views of the pier in the distance.

Both sides are connected by an interior door in the main living area. So stay separated, or open up for access to both sides of the home. Great for large groups and family gatherings.

There are two full kitchens and two family rooms in this home, one on each side.

Overall, EACH side hosts:

Master bedroom, with its own private large bathrooms and an amazing personal oceanfront balcony overlooking the deck, with unobstructed views of the island as far as the eye can see.
Upstairs Queen bedroom
Upstairs bunk bed room with two sets of twin bunks (4 beds in room).
Downstairs Queen room on main living level near the kitchen, with a connecting full bathroom.

It was an amazing weekend with our son getting married. We hosted a breakfast for family and was pleased with a full kitchen stocked on both sides. The location and the view are outstanding. The house needs some bathroom upgrade, but other than that we were very pleased with our stay at Pinnacle.

This was a family trip with our grown children and grandchildren. The views from the living room deck and upper decks were amazing. The kitchen was well equipped with many of the essentials and then some. Pool and surrounding deck was awesome. Despite a couple of hiccups with the pool and hot tub heat (which were corrected within minutes of contacting the host Stephanie) everyone truly enjoyed those amenities. Thank you for allowing us to share and make wonderful memories at The Pinnacle!

This home's location was perfect and the home accommodated my large family of children, grandchildren and me. We celebrated Thanksgiving with walks on the beach, some beach football, warming up in the hot tub and of course, turkey and all the fixins'. Plenty of room for my whole crew. Couldn't ask for a better spot. We hadn't been to Emerald Isle for a very long time so we enjoyed seeing all the changes.

This is a beautiful property. Plenty of room to accommodate our eleven adults and one grandchild. The pool and hot tub got a lot of use through the week. Both were clean and well maintained. Deck space was plenty for our group to spread out. Great ocean view and nice, clean beach. The two kitchens was a nice plus (especially the two refrigerators- one for food, one for beverages. Would happily stay here again.

Beautiful setting right on the water but the house and kitchen need significant updates and we were really disappointed. With a little effort it could made been 5 stars. One grill didn’t work and the other was too dirty to consider using. The dishes were totally mismatched and we needed to use dishes from both sides for a meal served on one. There was a white gritty film on all of the dishes. We had to rewash everything. They need a water softener or new dishwashers. The shower didn’t work to turn the temperature and we had to get a repairman to fix the old fixtures. The baseboards and bathrooms were really dirty. I’ve owned a beach house and for what we paid I would expected all of these issues to have been addressed proactively. Older reviews mention this and the grill. The pool was lovely as was the beach access and the tvs and living room furniture were very comfortable.

Beautiful location with comfortable furnishings and nice deck furniture. House was not clean, sand in the beds, issues with HVAC, needs indoor repairs which were reported but left undone (towel rack stopped up bath tub).All pots, pans are in need of replacement. Size of bedrooms are deceiving in online photos.

The view and location is great, house is okay

Overall, the location and view is what makes this place worth it! The driveway is incredibly steep and wprth mentioning as some may not feel comfortable driving up it. The mattresses and pillows need to be upgraded!! After a long day on the beach they do not cut it by any stretch of the imagination. All the toilet paper holders were broken, and we continued to run iut of hot water so we had to stagger showers throughout the week or you were in for a cold surprise. The kitchen could also use upgrades in terms of dishes, cookware, etc. Outside and the location was great, but neither grill worked very well and both need to be replaced.

Amazing views, clean and spacious, perfect for groups

I stayed with a few friends for a spiritual retreat, and this house was perfect. Owners were very kind, responsive, and accommodating. The house was clean and spacious, with two kitchens and two living rooms that connect via a door, which enabled us to have separate gatherings and conversations when we wanted. The pool was heated! The best part was the view of and access to the beach. I’ve stayed at oceanfront homes but none with such close views of the waves and quick access to the beach. We hope to come back soon! 10/10.

Great owner and property management support!!

This was the 2nd time staying here and it did not disappoint once again. House has tons of room, lots of parking and the views are incredible. Unfortunately, 1 of the units had a mechanical failure on one of the upstairs AC's but the property management effort and immediate response was spot on the money. They made things right, they stayed and worked until we were happy. The unit was repaired ASAP and communication was A. No complaints whatsoever and would love the opportunity to stay here again!!

Beautiful Views!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Pinnacle and it was perfectly set up for our family. The beautiful large back decks were wonderful for enjoying your morning coffee and watching the sun rise. Both kitchens are fully stocked with everything you could need and stores are located within walking/biking distance or a quick 5 minute drive. The pool was picturesque and the hot tub was wonderful for evening soaks after pool time. Only negative we had was there was quite a bit of garbage in the dunes so we tried to clean some of that up and a few bugs on the exterior of the home that we noticed but that was it! My sister-in-law accidentally left something at the house after our check out and the host graciously allowed us access to retrieve those items. 10/10 we would stay again and hope to next year!

We had a wonderful stay at the house. Location is perfect. Views are spectacular. Cleaning crew worked right until the 4pm check in time because "the previous occupants left the place a mess." They did an awesome job. The house was spotless when we checked in. We found two small plumbing issues the day we checked in, and the management company had them corrected the next morning seamlessly. Overall, an awesome experience and we would gladly go back.

Amazing location and house for family reunion

Fantastic location, we all enjoyed being on the beach and using the pool and hottub. House well appointed and allowed for different age groups to relax. A suggestion would be to power wash the carport area by the driveway and also the trash cans. Thank you for a wonderful setting for great family memories!
