About this property

3 Bedroom, One Bath Waterfront Home On Nelson Bay (Core Sound)
This sound-front home is perfect for the family who enjoys water activities such as swimming, fishing, kayaking, sailing, windsurfing or just relaxing while enjoying the spectacular waterfront view. The sound is shallow and kid-friendly and an ideal site for learning to swim and frolic in the water. For a couple, it's ideal for a peaceful, private get-away.

Private sandy beach, shallow water dock suitable for smaller boat, excellent fishing and crabbing right off the dock. Crab pots provided no license needed in NC for a crab pot tied to your private dock.

There is a nearby boat launch. Unspoiled beaches can be reached by a boat ride across Core Sound or by car on Cedar Island, 8 miles away. Ferry's are available in Atlantic or Cedar Island for day trips to local beaches as well as Okracoke Island (a fun day trip-take bikes).

Outstanding cuisine can be enjoyed 30 miles away in historic Beaufort.

Worth it - even solo when it’s not that warm!

I stayed in this nature oasis with just my two dogs (was supposed to be 3, and all humans bailed). It was SO AWESOME! Walking out to the beach, working with the tides to see it all rush in, then out, the quiet, THE BIRDS, the fiddler crab town at low tide, rescuing hermit crabs at low tide by the dock… it was all with the drive and expense. The house is REALLY comfortable. I do get uneasy in some places alone, but I felt at ease as soon as I walked in the door. There are kayaks (a two person and single, plus SUPs and I wish I could’ve used them. I would stay a month if I could. I could go on and on about it for days. But this is already a novel. Oh, my dogs had a blast too! Plus you can see sunrise and sunset and travel to all the other islands/beaches easily. There is a neighbor dog who walks onto the private beach once a day, but I never saw him/her. Just tracks and ____.

Awesome place!

Windswept made me feel like a kid again! We spent hours on the pier and on the beach collecting shells and watching the fish. We can't wait to get back to Windswept again!

Perfect Destination

I was looking for a place that my family and our dog could enjoy without the summer crowds. Windswept certainly delivered beyond our expectations. We fished all day, walked the beach for shells and enjoyed the water toys. My older children enjoyed bike rides in the evening exploring the neighborhood. The house is older, but that is part of the charm. Our evenings were spent in the screened in porch enjoying the nice ocean breeze. We enjoyed dinner at Patty's which is right down the street. Our kids loved going to Davis Shore Provisions for souvenirs and pie! This was the most relaxing vacation we ever took and can't wait to return. The owners were excellent with communication as well.
