About this property

Waterfront living - Captain's Cottage

~2750 square feet of living space in this one-of-a-kind waterfront vacation home, named “Captain’s Cottage”, located within walking distance to popular downtown Swansboro. The highlights of this waterview home are relaxing while yachts and boats cruise by, strolling down to shop or dine on the waterfront or enjoying time with friends and family taking in the breathtaking views. Kids and adults can enjoy additional entertainment in the ground-level game room with a game of cards, ski ball or a friendly foosball game.

Boaters will enjoy the boat lift and easy access to a launch and trailer parking. More information is available upon request.

Kayakers will enjoy the two single kayaks (with easy launch), paddles and life jackets or bring your own!

Bedroom 1: Queen | Bedroom 2: Queen | Bedroom 3: 2 Queens

Ground Level: Entry door via keyless entry with your code that is provided 24 hours prior to check-in. The ground floor also features a table for 4, foosball and skeeball for entertainment. A full bathroom (shower only). Additional roon with flat screen TV (with Roku), perfect for a “kid” TV room.

First Floor: Waterfront main living area. Two living room seating areas, dining room and fully stocked kitchen. The main living room features a flat-screen TV with cable. Easy access to the backyard and sprawling views of the Intracoastal Waterway. Bedroom 1 and 2 as well as a shared full bathroom and large closet for clothing storage.

Additional Amenities: 2 single kayaks. Boat lift that can hold a 24 foot boat (launch and parking details available upon request). The dock is the perfect spot for fishing or just relaxing.

Parking: 3 cars if parked at a bit of an angle. 2 cars parked normally. Out of respect for the neighbors, we ask that parked cars don’t block the road in any way.

This place was awesome. Decorated very well. Game room is very cool. Great dock to fish from and the views were great as well. Only thing missing was my wife and I having more time to stay.

Survived tropical storm Ophelia

My family came into town to surprise our son for his birthday. He is stationed at Camp Lejeune. We were only in town for 3 days and of course it was right when tropical storm Ophelia made land fall so the weather was wet to say the least. However the stay was still nice, the house is in a perfect location for anyone who enjoys a vacation on the waterfront. We walked down to the shops and restaurants in Swansboro, very convenient. Parking at the house can be tricky but we were able to park two Toyota 4 runners and one Nissan Sentra and not be in the roadway. So it can be done 😂. Would definitely do this property again in the future. PS did some fishing from the dock and caught a flounder, a few croakers, a Florida pompano, and a very large stone crab. Thanks again
