The Perfect Stay in Swansboro

The house on Shore Dr was perfect for our family and dog. The house was very organized and clean. It was very cute. The bedding was excellent and very comfortable. The amenities and location of the house to downtown Swansboro was ideal for walking to dinner or the waterfront where we had access to kayaks/SUP and place to keep our boat. Kim and Jerry were great hosts. We would recommend this place to anyone. John & Lori

Lovely very dog friendly home

We stayed at this VRBO for a week as we celebrated our son’s 20 year military retirement. I was especially impressed with the awesome dog friendly accommodations from the wooden fenced yard area to the doggie bowls and pads supplied. This VRBO is close to shopping, restaurants and the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and would choose this place again if needed. Thanks sooo much for the hospitality!

The Shore House

We did enjoy staying at the Shore House!! We loved the remodeling! You had it well supplied! In fact, I found the iron & used it. Couldn’t find iron board till last day!! We did have unexpected guest. My brother & his son joined us for 2 days, thus I owe you more money! I didn’t get to take the sheet off their beds. My only suggestion for you is in bathroom. I would add a rail to hold on to when getting out of the tub. The towel rack should never be used as rail. We are 75. We are coming Sept 26 for niece’s wedding!! We will probably book it! Thank you!

Comfortable family vist

This was the perfect place for a weekend visit with family. Very clean home with everything in its place. Renovated home conveniently located to everything. There is a public park within eyeshot of the driveway. The fenced in back yard is perfect for pets if you have them. The owners were welcoming and flexible with our potentially changing plans.

Welcome to the Shore house, a place where the sea breeze carries whispers of joy and memories yet to be made. As you step onto the sandy shores of our little slice of heaven, may the waves of tranquility wash over you, bringing serenity to your soul.
Growing up at the crystal coast, surrounded by the beauty of nature's wonders, has instilled in us a deep appreciation for the simple pleasures of life.

Swansboro, the friendly city by the sea, welcomes you with open arms and warm hearts. Here, amidst the laughter of seagulls and the gentle lullaby of the waves, may you and your loved ones forge unforgettable memories that will stand the test of time.
