Linda, the owner, was very helpful and quick to respond with any and all concerns. The home was lovely and well maintained. The golf cart was a huge benefit for driving around the island. We enjoyed our stay so much. The only issue we had was not wanting to leave. Great location and great property owner communication. Highly recommend this place for a lively stay in Emerald Isle.

Everything was perfect and owner was so helpful and responsive! The house had everything we needed and the golf cart made staying on the sound side perfect! Easy trip to the beach and back. Beds were very comfortable and linens and towels were high quality which you don’t usually get with rentals on vacation. Couldn’t have asked for anything else ! We will be back next year.

The house was exactly what we were looking for. I came with my family and my 2 older parents that don’t get around well. This house was perfect for that. Great location. Able to get in town with the golf cart. Easy access to the beach. The host was amazing, very informative, and cared for our safety. We were there during hurricane Erin and she notified me of updates on progress and warnings that were being issued. Also notified me of things to do. A turtle bridge, live concert, and a few others. I would recommend this rental to others.

Perfect Home - Wonderful Host!

We absolutely loved Sunshine House! It was one of the most comfortable and well furnished homes we've ever stayed at. The beds were heaven, it was beautifully decorated and it had EVERYTHING we could have asked for or wanted. The golf cart was the highlight of our mini-vacation. It was so much fun taking it to the beach and out to the very close-by places for dinner and drinks. Thank you Linda for sharing your home with us - you are wonderful host!!

July 4th at Emerald Isle

This rental had everything you needed and a bit more. The unit is clean, comfortable and modern. The beds were AWESOME!! Great proactive communication from owners and going above and beyond. With the rental having a lot of little things that you typically need to pack, this is by far the least we have ever had to do so (Used our smaller Jeep vs. SUV). Parking is covered. Party of four (with two kids 14/8). This made our trip way more enjoyable (especially for Dad). This unit also offered a golf cart included in your rental cost. It felt like everyone on the island uses them and there is plenty of golf cart parking at public beach access areas. The beach is about 5min away from the unit. This unit has a shared wall with another rental but we did not see them until the next to last day of July 4th. The separation between each unit is very good (this unit is front facing). A shibumi is a necessity on about every NC beach typically and glad the owners included that as well (One less thung to pack). Tips.. Walmart will do a grocery delivery if you have Wal-Mart. Breakfast is served at most restaurants. No fast food close by (which to me is a good thing). We have rented a GREAT deal of beach houses/Condos and this one ranks in the top three.

Host profile image
Mike and I love God, family, friends and fun! A place at the beach is our dream come true. Our wish for you is that you have the best experience ever spent at the beach! We hope you love it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because it is beautiful. We love the location being in a neighborhood where you can go to the beach, ride bikes, go to the ICW, take walks, the kids can ride their bikes in the cul-de-sac or you can cruise in the golf cart. We also LOVE the outdoor space. The view from the deck is beautiful and there is water all around us.

What makes this property unique

We do a signature drink for the summer months. Your ingredients await you. We also provide: shampoo, body wash, laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, DAWN, cleaners, foil, saran wrap, paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags, hand soap, PAM, and some spices.
For the outdoors, our house comes with a six seater golf cart, 4 bikes, a paddle board and life jacket, two kayaks, corn hole, a shibumi tent, beach chairs, beach towels and a large deck with a gas firepit, and we have a gas grill.
