About this property
The Sandlot- OCEANFRONT House w/ Pool & Hot Tub, Amazing views. Beach access.
The Sandlot -
Stay right on the beach! Nestled just steps from the Atlantic Ocean is this completely updated 8 Bedroom, 6 Bathroom cottage that sports incredible views, an oceanfront pool, hot tub, and spacious oceanfront trex deck.
The home is currently offered as a single family rental. Originally set up as duplex, a doorway INSIDE the home between the living rooms separates or connects the two sides. This allows you to enjoy and share your space, but also gives you the convenience and separation should you choose! (TWO kitchens, TWO Living spaces!)
The layout includes two identical sides. This means there are two fully stocked kitchens (one on each side), and two family rooms (one on each side), with a doorway connecting the two sides that is accessible from inside the home.
The home was renovated in 2022 to include brand new kitchen cabinets and countertops, new floors through the home, new paint, and a brand new master bathroom on both East and West sides spring 2023. New decking and new roof! The home feels brand new.
Each master bedroom has a king bed, and its own, amazing, large private oceanfront covered balcony overlooking the pool and beach, with unobstructed views of the ocean. Each master bedroom has a brand new master bathroom put in the spring of 2023 with walk in shower, toilet, and single vanity.
Overall, EACH side hosts:
An OCEAN FRONT Master bedroom on the top floor, with private spacious balcony overlooking the pool and direct ocean views. A second bedroom upstairs with two sets of twin bunk beds (4 twin beds total) A third bedroom upstairs with queen bed. A play area/ lounge room with daybed (floor space here will fit a standard size pack-n-play). A first floor bedroom (with queen bed), convenient to the first floor bathroom and kitchen.
Totaling 8 bedrooms, 2 play/rec rooms, and 6 bathrooms.
Fully fenced in pool area for an added safety measure. You can walk right to the beach access without needed to enter the pool area. Great for young kids. Pool and hot tub are professionally cleaned and maintained 1-2x per week depending on season.

This house is an absolute gem. Aaron and Stephanie are fantastic, you could not ask for better hosts. This house has great views, great layout and PLENTY of parking which is so difficult to find down there with big houses. Usually, you have a house that can sleep 22 people and have a driveway big enough for 4 cars, but not here. There is a gracious amount of room for parking. The Sandlot offers 8 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, 2 kitchens, great hang out area on the back porch, heated pool, hot tub... this house definitely has everything you will need! The Sandlot is a great option for your EI stay!! A
We love staying at the Sandlot! This was our 3rd year renting this cottage and we have already booked it again for summer of 2026! We are a family of 8 adults and 7 grandchildren- the layout of the rooms/ bedrooms is perfect for us. The close proximity to the gorgeous beach is a plus, along with the fenced in pool. We highly recommend this cottage to rent!
We had the most amazing vacation here! The whole place is extremely calming, with a superb pool and hot tub that made it feel like a true getaway. The walk to the beach couldn’t be easier, it’s right on one of the best stretches of beach, and the lookout is so extraordinarily beautiful. One of the highlights was the master bedroom, you can literally see the beach right from the bed, like something straight out of a movie. Everything about this place is spectacular. We felt so cozy, and the beds were unbelievably comfortable. Hands down one of the best stays we’ve ever had.
Wonderful home for our group! Everyone had the space they needed and the views and serenity were amazing! There was an issue with the pool heater but the hosts were very attentive and accomodating. Great vacation!
We were able to spend an amazing week with my children and grandchildren. Weather was beautiful, spent everyday at the beech and the pool. Laughs, good food, great views, wonderful home and Awsome experience. Highly recommend and we will look to stay at this home ago. Thank you
This property is amazing I would recommend all family’s to stay here! A very short walk to the beach which was amazing. The house also was very nice and clean. Dog friendly which made our whole vacation!
We spent a week at Sandlot. Excellent location. The views from the decks were fabulous. The pool and hot tub was an added bonus. Plenty of space for our group. We breakfast on the west side and dinner on the east side. Our only suggestion is need better cookware. Bigger frying pans and updated cooking pots and storage bowls with lids. We would definitely stay here again if we visit Emerald Isle.
Beautiful property, including pool and hot tub. Short walkway to beach! Perfect vacation for our family of 13, with 6 grandchildren, all ages 8 and under!
Wonderful family vacation week, beautiful ocean views! Our grandchildren not only enjoyed the beach, but the pool as well. This was our 2nd year in a row staying at this beach cottage, we are planning on returning next year!
We had a wonderful time. The location couldn’t be better. Quick drive to town easy access to the beach very clean, updated amenities. It was so nice. We felt like we had our own space.
The home is beautiful and comfortable. Master suites have an incredible view! Spent a lot of time in the pool (heated) and hot tub. Plenty of room for everyone (10 adults) to live comfortably for 4 days. Kitchens were well equipped and plenty of bath towels provided.
This was the perfect place for our family! We used the decks, pool and beach access every day. Having two kitchens was ideal since we have a family member with an extreme food allergy. Beautiful location and we enjoyed awesome sunrises and sunsets throughout the week.
The location. Pool and hot tub were a hit and the pool company came several times while we were there. The house was not very clean and we had to recast all the dishes before using. Also one side of the house had most of the kitchen supplies so we had to keep taking things back to our side. It would be nice if the cleaning people or those there before us would have split stuff up. Made it hard particularly in the mornings to make stuff whe. You discovered you did not have a dish or something to make an early breakfast. We had a great time and would stay again but I did think the house keeping could have done a better job
The home was very clean , and just steps from the beach , the heated pool and Hottub was awesome! The only thing I would suggest is that you bring dish towels and maybe a few bath towels and rags, there wasn’t many of those. But we had an amazing week and would definitely go back!
Thank you, Stephanie, for a wonderful vacation in your beach home. We all thoroughly enjoyed everything, from the fantastic communication, your generous hospitality, and the well appointed (and extremely comfortable) accommodations. The heated pool was worth every penny, the hot tub was a huge hit, the rocking chairs were loved by all, the gates were certainly appreciated with a toddler, and the proximity of the beach couldn’t have been any better! We hope to return again soon 😊

Thank you so much! It makes us so happy to hear that you appreciated all the little things that make The Sandlot such a special place. And glad you enjoyed the heated pool - it is such a wonderful addition, especially with kids and for evening swims. We hope you are able to return in the future!
We can’t thank Aaron and Stephanie enough. This was the perfect house with perfect views for our intimate wedding weekend. We called twice due to needing maintenance and Aaron picked right up and communicated so well about when they’d be there. This was our first big “group” vacation and everything was beyond perfect and we’re already looking at dates for next summer to stay again.
Did not live up to a high end place for money we paid. Sliding glass doors ocean side were a huge struggle to open and with broken locks. One shower had standing water which was resolved towards end of stay. Mold on fence and siding. Ants a big problem around pool. Would not stay again.

Excellent and cozy cottage
Our first time in Emerald Isle and it will not be our last!
This cottage was perfect and so comfortable. The view from the master bedroom in the morning is stunning, and the private deck off the master is an added touch.
We loved the added feature of the pool as well. Plenty of bedrooms and amenities in a relatively small footprint. Recently remodeled, everything was a pleasure and just about perfect, seriously.
Emerald Island is also a gem, quiet, beautiful and friendly.
You cannot go wrong with the wonderful cottage!
Our family has rented a beach home every summer for many years. This was the best yet! It felt like home for our growing extended family. It was super clean when we arrived and even had some necessities that most homes don’t provide (hand soaps, toilet paper, paper towels, etc.), so we didn’t need to run out asap to purchase them. The pool was great for the children when we weren’t on the beach. Overall an excellent stay and we hope to book again soon!
