First time, second row
Our dream was always to spend every Thanksgiving at the beach and we have been to Emerald Isle for 23 years straight. Grandchildren have always loved it and have made many memories there. This property is great, providing space for gathering or for finding a place a little away from hubbub.

Fresh with Ample Amenities
As soon as we walked in after quite a long travel day, we broke into "oohs and ahhs". It just clean, bright and accommodating. The owner has thought of so much to help make our stay easy and fun. The pool and volleyball court were a hit! This is in part because the owner supplied the balls and pool toys. Her beach chairs were being used at the beach, of course, and along side the volleyball court. Helpful for my 83-year-old mom. The decks were where we were most when not away from our home away from home. The view and sound of the ocean is surprisingly good from being across the street. I highly recommend this home for large groups.

Wonderful Weekend despite rainy weather!
Valerie is quite possibly the kindest host of any rental property I’ve used! It’s obvious she cares deeply about the experience and comfort of her guests and we felt that the entire length of our stay. The house is well situated near a public beach access but offered enough to keep us entertained through a tropical storm! The kitchen was also well stocked with equipment and spices which was helpful. We’ll definitely be back!

Nice
It’s a nice place with close access to the beach and the manager was responsive. The pool guy came on Saturday (we did not know he was going to come) and there is lots of stairs (for those with older family) spacious for our group and loved the second level porch.

About the host

Hosted by Valerie Jonas

Host profile image
Emerald Isle is our favorite Beach Town. It's both small enough and big enough (population). It's remote but not too remote; it has all conveniences of a bigger beach town but offers a different atmosphere. The people are fabulous and the small businesses (not chains) are great!

We love all the beach activities here, the historic areas (Swansboro & Beaufort), the Croatan National Forest, & the big cities are just a few hours away! :)

We are very excited to share our beach home with you. Owning this and sharing it has taken decades of effort to realize. We live in a great country where we have the opportunity to work hard, save and make investments back in ourselves and others. These opportunities are nothing that we should take for granted. We thank our military for protecting the freedoms we have and that we can freely enjoy our great country!

Why they chose this property

We were drawn to this property because of several reasons. It's located off Coast Guard Road, therefore, there is less traffic. The size of the property has allowed us to put in both a Pool and Volleyball court. We liked that it was 2nd row where we can see the Ocean but have privacy that Oceanfront homes do not afford renters in the peak season. The inside of the home is fabulous. It has 3 levels each with a living area, 2 levels have a full kitchen, there are 4 full bathrooms and 2 decks with a patio. This set up allows for people to gather and still have personal space. We felt it was an amazing house that could be shared with other people to make wonderful lifetime memories.

What makes this property unique

* 2 individual kitchen areas with one on ground floor
* Location off Coast Guard Rd
* Near the Emerald Isle Woods Park (off Coast Gaurd)
* Near the Ocean Oaks Playground (off Coast Gaurd)
* 2 decks, 1 patio
* 3 Living Areas
* 4 Full Bathrooms
* 2 Outside Showers (one enclosed, one not enclosed)
* Pool & Volleyball Court
