About this property

Sound & Seadogs Great Stay Middle Row! EI Bungalow 1 Min. Walk to Beach & Sound!

Sound & SeaDogs Flat is the perfect coastal escape, ideally located just steps from the beach on one side and the sound on the other—both approximately a one-minute walk away. This charming, single-story, pet-friendly bungalow offers 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, thoughtfully designed for comfort, convenience, and relaxation.

Inside, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen featuring a full-size refrigerator, stove, microwave, dishwasher, and a convenient Keurig coffee station. The open-concept living and dining area provides a welcoming space to unwind after a day in the sun, while the in-unit laundry closet with an over/under washer and dryer adds everyday ease.

The home comfortably accommodates guests within approximately 900 square feet and features two well-appointed bedrooms:

Bedroom 1: King bed with blackout curtains for restful nights

Bedroom 2: Two twin beds, perfect for family or friends

TVs with Roku devices and Spectrum streaming are available in the living room and both bedrooms.

Step outside to enjoy the 16-foot adjoining patio, complete with outdoor dining seating and a gas grill—perfect for sunrise coffee or relaxing evenings after a day at the beach. Guests also have access to an outdoor shower for rinsing off after sandy adventures. A private paved driveway entrance offers parking for up to three vehicles or a combination of car, boat, and trailer (under 20 ft).

The Emerald Isle bike path runs adjacent to the property, making it ideal for family bike rides, walks, or jogs. This bungalow is adjacent to, but not attached to, another property. Its single-story layout, minimal steps, and convenient beach access make it especially well-suited for retired guests, families with children, or anyone looking for easy in-and-out beach days.

Nearby Attractions & Activities:
In addition to the nearby beach and sound, attractions within walking or short driving distance include Island Water Sports, the North Carolina Aquarium, Bogue Inlet Fishing Pier, and Fort Macon State Park. Popular activities in the area include biking, jet skiing, paddle boarding, fishing, boating, kayaking, miniature golf, and exploring the charming waterfront towns of Morehead City and Beaufort.

Local Dining:
Local eateries just minutes from the bungalow include the Crab Shack and Anchor Drafthouse, known for pizza, a local bar atmosphere, and waterfront seating. A must-try food truck favorite is Captain’s Kitchen, offering fantastic seafood along with burgers and hot dogs. Don’t be discouraged by the line—it’s well worth the wait!

We loved this little place! Brian was super helpful with getting us checked in/out and sent along a lot of great information. The bungalow was perfectly sized for our family of 3 plus small dog. The beach was a quick walk down a short path and across an empty street. The sound was a similar short walk the other direction. It felt like we were equidistant from lots of places to eat/shop to the east and west.

Comfy Cottage

This place was perfect for the two of us! It was in a perfect location and close to the homes the rest of our larger families rented. Brian the concierge was a great personal touch! The only better of would be to have a little bit larger bathroom but the owners compensated by allowing the outdoor shower of the main house to be used! We would definitely stay there again!

Amazing stay

We enjoyed our stay. The property was easy to find. We were greeted very nicely and even had wine waiting for us. The beach is close by and the property provided privacy. The beach inside was beautifully decorated and had everything you need. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything you need and everything was new and worked perfectly. The property managers are great to work with. Overall we enjoyed our stay and hope to return soon.

Great stay; great location

We've stayed at this property twice and have enjoyed it. It's worked well for our small family of three and nice to be able to bring the pup along. It's not a fancy place with bells and whistles but comfortable, economic, and location is great.

About the host

Hosted by Mark & Andrea Brown

Host profile image
We’re Mark and Andrea, and Sound & SeaDogs truly is our home away from home. Mark is an Indiana native, and Andrea grew up just down the road in Beaufort. From the moment we discovered Emerald Isle with family nearby, we knew it was a hidden gem—one that quickly captured our hearts and became a place we return to again and again. This bungalow is our happy place, where life slows down and the simple joys of the ocean take center stage.

The name SeaDogs is especially meaningful. It’s inspired by the Beaufort High School mascot from the 1940s, a small tribute to Andrea’s roots and the deep history of this coastal community that means so much.

When we first purchased the property as a foreclosure, it needed more than just repairs—it needed love. Through countless hours of hands-on work, thoughtful updates, and a lot of care, we brought new life into this little bungalow. Every improvement was made with the hope of creating a space that feels comfortable, welcoming, and easy to enjoy.

With the beach just steps away on one side and the peaceful sound on the other, Sound & SeaDogs offers the best of both worlds. Whether you’re starting your day with coffee on the patio, enjoying time by the water, or winding down in the evening, we hope—just as we do—you’ll feel a deep sense of peace and happiness here, one that keeps drawing you back year after year.

Why they chose this property

A true home away from home, paired with a quiet, family-friendly beach that never feels crowded. In just a minute’s walk, you’ll be greeted by stunning sunrises in the morning and calming sunsets in the afternoon.
