About this property

Amazing Ocean Front Cottage on the Crystal Coast

This beautiful newly remodeled Beachfront Cottage in Emerald Isle is just perfect. A little bit of Paradise right on the beach. Just step off the deck directly onto the sand and catch the next big wave or relax in a chair reading your favorite book. This wonderful Emerald Isle Vacation home has 3 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms, and Sleeps 8. The Master bedroom has a King-size bed and a Twin-size daybed with a private bathroom. The other 2 bedrooms both have queen-sized beds. There is a full bathroom in the hallway. Our advice? Just walk in the front door and let the fun begin! Who knows, you may even SEE turtles at See Turtle Cottage! 🐢

Tiny but cute, 3 bedrooms were plenty for us and our 3 kids. Sooo close to the beach, it was fantastic. The place was very clean and had everything we needed for a great week at Emerald Isle. The deck was great, and we enjoyed eating outdoors a couple times. I recommend visitors bring their own toilet paper and paper towels unless you like the super thin stuff. We really enjoyed trips to the aquarium and fort macon. Did not like the fish hut grill, but enjoyed Gaffers, Trading Post, and especially enjoyed Crab Claw at Atlantic Beach. We would stay here again for sure.

Great house and wonderful view

This house was ideally located right on the beach with a great deck and fabulous deck chairs that were high enough to watch the dolphins and the sea birds!! The walk to the ocean was easy and the house was well equipped. Plenty of towels and amenities made the stay enjoyable. Joyce, the hostess, was great !!! We would stay here again !!!

Great beach location!

This typical NC beach cottage sits right on the beach and close to restaurants and stores in either Emerald Isle or Atlantic Beach. Clean and recently updated this sweet cottage is small but is packed with all the amenities you need for a great trip.

Beachy Keen

Another lovely week at See Turtle cottage on the ocean at Emerald Isle… our 6th or 7th year? We keep returning every year because of the location, the comfy size and the outfitting of the place… everything we need! And the beach is just a few steps away.

Great location

Easy walk across dunes to the beach, as it is very close. The place is nice and as advertised. The only things we disliked were the high beds (why?) and one sofa in the front seriously needs to be replaced. Otherwise a nice, thrifty place.

Spectacular Beachfront View

Amazing smaller but really quite roomy beach cottage with direct beachfront. Wonderful deck with stairs to beach. Very clean and comfortable. Fully loaded with everything you’ll need, including a newer gas grill. You can’t go wrong with this one. The best beach rental I’ve ever stayed at in Emerald Isle. Will definitely be back and can hardly wait!
