Great Family Getaway

This is a great place to stay if you have a large family. Would highly recommend it. Although it is a little bit of walk to the beach, the location is wonderful. And the house has a nice layout for a large group of people.

Thanks for the feedback! Our property has 5 bedrooms. If the listing is clearly read there is a heading “Bedrooms and additional sleeping spaces”. Each room has exactly what beds are listed in the room. The infant pack n play is listed as an additional sleeping space, the 6th. The dressers are occasionally moved, there is at least one in each room; one may have been moved out of the en suite. In addition there are 4 full sized couches, one of which is a pull out!

This home is perfect for your large family stays!! Had our whole extended group come, and there was plenty of space for everyone to swim, play, sleep, cook, eat, and hangout. The beach is steps away, and there are a dozen more entry points just minutes down the road. Highly recommend the crab steamers at Snappers, Lookout Cruises out of Beaufort, & Idle Hour Biergarten and Shark Shack, both in Atlantic Beach!

Great space

We had a great time at our wedding weekend staying at this VRBO! There was so much space and the layout was perfect for a large group. Only thing I would say is watch out for bugs, but it is in the woods so it makes sense.

Thanks for the feedback Madison! We have struggled this year with pests. Although we do have monthly service, after speaking with the pest control company back in august they had indicated the island is experiencing an unusual amount this year! But as always anytime there is a concern, please reach out to our property manager!

Mimi & Baba’s Beach Week

Had another wonderful week at the Octagonal home in Emerald Isle. New downstairs lighting was great! It’s only a short walk to the beach for the grandkids, aged 1-6, and wagons worked great. The outside shower to de-sand everyone is wonderful. Kids loved the pool as well.

Livin' the Best Life

Our party had an awesome stay! Initially, the downstairs 'bunk' room was slightly smaller than assumed; however, everyone found their 'space.' The home is conveniently located to everything we wanted to do, and the pool quickly became an integral part of our getaway! The teenagers of the group enjoyed gaming with the pool and ping-pong tables, while the adults could relax upstairs. The beach was a quick walk, and the neighborhood was friendly and quieter than I imagined. Overall, everyone enjoyed the home, and most of us were livin' our best lives in that pool!

A great week at EI

My family of 11 really enjoyed this house. The pool is such a nice feature. The house is a bit dated but has incredible space! Bedrooms are huge and it has so much seating. Only 1 flight of steps which is also nice. We appreciated the 2 refrigerators and library of great books as well. Located on a quiet street and easy walk to the beach. You won’t be short on space or beds in this house!! We would definitely stay again.
