Bringing a boat? Put in at Bush Marina a few blocks south. Don't have a boat? A local captain in the neighborhood offers sunset cruises and charters to a barrier island that leaves from The Breezeway Dock.

What should you bring or know?
Our no-pets policy is strict.

Guests will be required to e-sign a rental agreement, provide a valid government ID, and provide a refundable security deposit that will be held on a card starting the day before your reservation and released 2-5 days after checkout if no damage is found. Please ask if there are any questions during this process; this is compliant with NC law and all booking platforms' rules. Failure to sign the agreement, provide the ID, or provide a security deposit is grounds for the reservation to be canceled at no plenty to the host.

This listing is for the upstairs unit only. Please see my other listings for the whole house rental or downstairs rental.

Great Place! Quick & Easy Beach Access!

The place was great, had all the kitchen items needed and more. Living room very cozy. Main shower is huge; can easily shower with a couple small children if needed. Seating area outside was nice, great anytime but perfect for those coffee mornings and evening wind downs. Beach access was 4 minute easy walk. Get on Empie from the rental road and walk straight to the beach access point.
