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.

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.
