It's time to have the vacation you've been waiting for at this charming oceanfront home with easy public beach access. Just steps from the sand, you can take in the beauty of North Carolina's Crystal Coast. And there are no worries about bringing sand back up to the house - you can rinse off in the enclosed outdoor shower before heading inside.

When you step into the Sandfiddler Cottage, you step into a simpler time. Enjoy lovely sunsets on the oceanfront deck or do a little soul-searching while resting under the stars on the porch swing. After a day of exploring, head back to the house for a family feast prepared in the well-equipped kitchen - listen to them all chattering around the two dining tables! After that, relax in the living area and watch a little TV or play games with the family.

There's plenty of room for the whole gang here, including a primary bedroom on the ground level and a bonus room. Additional amenities include a full-size washer/dryer in the garage, free WiFi, and a telephone for local calls.

Great location
This was my first visit to AB and the location of this place was perfect: easy beach access, great view of the beach 🏖️ and an easy walk to restaurants and Hang Ten 🤙 donut shop (which was good for before and after beach 🏖️ walks).

Location was great. It is walking distance to donut shop and to night life at the circle. Deck to sun and see the ocean was nice.

Good location but not clean and full of roaches
It was a good location with not a long walk to the beach. The overlook deck was nice especially at night to watch the stars. Was a very quiet neighborhood

Can't beat the location! The photos really don't do this property justice. Right on the water and quick walking distance to several food and drink destinations. Our whole family had a wonderful time! Thanks for the hospitality

RIGHT ON THE BEACH
House was good. Location was great, sitting right on the beach. Two decks, with one detached and on top of the dunes for incredible views, but both decks are in desperate need of repair. Boards are loose and sticking up, and dozens of nails heads are sticking up causing trip hazards and cut hazards if you walk on them barefooted.

Great private beach access, and outdoor spaces for oceanside views but not a clean place
We had our family reunion at the Sand Fiddler. I will start with the positives: the private beach access, outdoor shower, and outdoor patio spaces to view the ocean are really lovely. You're close to the Atlantic beach boardwalk which is nice as well. There are plenty of rocking chairs to sit and enjoy with your loved ones. The downsides are: the beds are very old and uncomfortable, and the biggest let down was it just didn't feel and seem cleaned thoroughly. The bathrooms, in particular the showers have a lot of old rust & mold. And the linens have a lot of stains. It feels like the cleaning was just a "gloss over" before we arrived. If you are paying for cleaning, you expect it to be better. So overall, I would not stay again but we appreciated the quaint home for the week.

Comfy Home
This sweet home is comfy and sleeps lots. Owners have done some nice updates. Would like to see updated appliances in kitchen and maybe lamps with USB ports since electrical outlets are sparse.

Sand Fiddler
The Sand Fiddler was perfect for our stay. Plenty of beds to go around. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The decks were great and the beach access was outstanding. We will definitely book the Sand Fiddler again.

Lovely home with great views of ocean. Beds are soft, but there are plenty of them to choose from. Well stocked kitchen, great decks and very dog friendly. Would rent again.
