Perfection!
This is my second stay and won’t be my last. The property provides easy access (and views!) to the beach. The house is very comfortable and has all the comforts you need while on vacation. I love staying here - it feels like home, but also feels like a a vacation oasis. The Moore’s make the entire process so easy and accessible. Always a great experience . . . except the party where your vacation has to end. ;)

A true “home away from home”
This lovely home was the perfect place for our trip to beautiful Emerald Island. The owners have gone overboard by supplying everything you could possibly need while away from your own home. The location was also great, it was quiet, peaceful and relaxing. We hope to rent it again in the near future.

Great Location and Pet Friendly
The duplex was very clean and well furnished. The half bath was in the master bedroom which was nice. We brought our dog and laid blankets we brought with us on the furniture so his hair wasn't a problem. It was very convenient to charge our non-Tesla electric vehicle. And, the outdoor shower had hot water. The owners were extremely friendly and quick to answer any questions. We even had a special request at the end of our stay that they were very receptive to. Thank you for such a great experience!

Wonderful 2nd row stay
My wife and I stayed here with our 2-year old and my father in law in mid April. We loved this unit for how easy it is to get out to the beach and the view from the front porch. This is the best view I have seen for a 2nd row house so far. The space was clean and comfortable with brand new appliances. The neighborhood was very quiet and the beach gear available was a plus as well. We have stayed at many places around Topsail and would definitely return!

Spring Break 2024
The house was very clean & had everything we needed. Great location. The only suggestion I would make is to try to put more sound proofing between the units. At times, we could hear every word that was said in the next unit. Thank you!

Great location!
Beautifully updated home in a great location! Could see the ocean from the front deck and beach access is right in front of the property. Very comfortable and clean home that is wonderfully updated with all the amenities. We brought our small dog and there were great grass areas for her and a quiet little street for walks! Overall perfect set up for us!

The property was very nice, clean, and well equipped for short or long stays. The large porch facing the ocean is perfect for taking in the sights and sounds. We also loved the short walk to the beach.

We had a wonderful week at this house. It was really a relaxing place to stay. We loved the proximity to the beach and everything else Emerald Isle has to offer. Super clean house with a nice kitchen and great view from the front deck. We would recommend it to friends and family and would definitely come back again in the future.

Cleanest rental ever!
This property is such a great rental! I’ve stayed at various rentals on the beaches of NC and this one was by far the cleanest. The owners were amazing at communicating in a timely manner and were super friendly. The beach access is so close and you can still see the ocean from the cottage. Everything worked perfectly during our vacation and we couldn’t have asked for a better outcome. Our neighbors were very nice and hopefully our four and six year olds didn’t create too much noise for them!

Everything We Could Possibly Need
The Moore’s really seemed to have thought of everything. The place was clean, very close to the beach, and had everything in the kitchen that we could need. Communication with the host was top notch and immediate. We had an internet outage (an issue with the provider, not the house), and James sent his father over to deal with the company to get it straight. The father was extremely nice but also made sure to give us plenty of space. He made sure the internet provider got the issue resolved ASAP. We had 2 adults and 3 kids on one side, and my parents on the other. Being able to open (and close) the doors between the units was definitely nice. We also really liked that the location is at a dead end, so only golf carts, bicycles, and walkers/joggers could pass through. We will absolutely be back. Highly recommend this location.
