Almost Ocean Front, 2nd Row, Great Ocean Views, Easy Beach Access, Quiet Street

This 2nd row beauty has it all! Great OCEAN VIEWS without the oceanfront rental prices (and it's CLEAN)! Beach access is easy and quick, right across the street. Over 2,000 square feet, on a quiet, non-busy street with a view of the ocean or Bogue sound from every single window in the house! Make this your 2nd home for a week (or two) and you'll never want to leave.

We want your family & friends to have a great experience and forget all of their worries while making great memories that will last a lifetime. Sound too good to be true or too much like a Hallmark card? Well we aren't kidding!

Wake up every morning and walk directly out of your bedroom onto the deck and breathe in Emerald Isle's salty air. Hear the waves crashing on the beach. House has 4 bedrooms with two King beds and two Queen beds (all with deck/balcony access) plus a kids' loft/entertainment area on the 4th level with 4 twin beds. In the den you can even watch TV, look to your left and see the ocean... of course, that's just from the inside, wait until you step out onto the decks!

Beach access is literally steps away across the street with a wooden walkway leading directly to the surf. Families with young kids will enjoy this convenience by not having to walk far with all your beach supplies and stuff! You also have the convenience of our exhilarating outdoor shower with hot/cold water to wash off the beach sand and lotion.

Cook all of your favorite 'beach foods' in our fully equipped kitchen while looking at the emerald blue ocean. Then dine and entertain inside with family & friends while enjoying the great ocean views from the large eating area, or have your meals outside on the upper deck where the view and sounds of the ocean enhance the experience.

Watch schools of dolphins in the morning swim by & flocks of pelicans dive in for a snack in the afternoon. If you need some shade, head down to the lower level deck & relax on one of our lounge or rocking chairs. Of course, the decks have great views, but nothing can beat hanging out on the beach & swimming in the ocean. After a long day, enjoy our outdoor shower (w/ hot & cold water) and indulge in some great local seafood at one of many restaurants within minutes of the house. After the kids have gone to sleep, sneak back out on the deck and look at the moonlight shine over the water with a glass of your favorite beverage. Get the best sleep of your life (as long as you put on plenty of sunscreen) and wake up ready to do it all over again!

I hope some of these words have captured just a small picture of what it is like to vacation at Beach Retreat: East. We have posted lots of pictures but nothing compares to actually being here. We truly look forward to helping you and your family have an amazing 'Beach Retreat', so please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions, comments or concerns.

If you are vacationing with multiple families, please see dates for Beach Retreat West, listing #395470. Rent both sides and vacation together.

Thank you for visiting our page and we hope your toes are in the sand very soon!

Wonderful Stay!
My family and I loved our stay! Easy access to the beach. Ample space for a large family to spend time together but also have space to relax alone. The top deck was wonderful to sit on with the cool ocean breeze and a pretty view!

All the benefits of first row
The house was great, all the things you'd expect. Most importantly, the first row house between this house and the ocean is small and the public access point is right next to it, so this second row back from the ocean house felt just as good as first row in my opinion.

This was a beautiful home that perfectly accommodated our large family of 12 (8 adults and 4 children). The loft space provided the perfect kid’s retreat. The owner has thought of and provided nearly everything, and the easy beach access is unbeatable. We had a fabulous experience in Emerald Isle!
