About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

WATERFRONT, gorgeous, PVT DOCK, relax, DOWNTOWN, fish, RETREAT

Step off the back porch and onto your PRIVATE dock!!! Watch the egrets soar, hear the rustle of wind in the marsh, and smell the salt air!

This adorable cottage by the sea has been here more than 100 years, and is just as adorable today as it was when it was built. It's got a wonderful open layout, with a nice deck and back yard that leads to your private dock! The side porch is a great place to sit and relax in the shade

Inside you will find a huge kitchen, with tons of working space, a cozy living room and 50” tv.

There is one bedroom on the main level with a queen bed, and a twin bed. There’s a full bath, washer and dryer on this level.

Upstairs you will find two light filled bedrooms and a full bath between them.
The bedroom overlooking the water has a king sized bed, and the one overlooking the street has a queen.

High end towels and linens, comfortable beds, black out curtains - we want you to love your stay here.

Large back deck with a gas grill, private dock that you can moor your boat!

Well equipped kitchen, washer/dryer. This is a cute home, built in 1910. It's survived most of the hurricanes and is packed with history. It's steps from downtown Swansboro, and you can walk to almost everything. The home has been in my family more than 50 years, and it's got a great feel.

BEACH ACCESS: The closest beach with "waves" is Emerald Isle. Its about a 20 minute drive. You can take a private charter to "bear island" aka Hammocks Beach State Park on the Lady Swan for a minimal fee. There is also the NC State Ferry that you can take to Hammocks Beach State Park, google for all the info.

BOAT RAMP: The boat ramp (NC Wildlife ramp) is about a mile from the house, very convenient for launching and retrieving the boat or jet ski!

BOATERS: Dock info. The dock is private. It has about 2 feet of water at low tide and 6 feet at high tide. It's easy to access from the ICW. You need to make certain the tower/console will fit under the White Oak River Bridge. It has about 6 feet of clearance from waterline to bridge at high tide. Most boats under 26' don't have any problems.

Idyllic spot

We visitors this property for a short visit. We found it charming and convenient. There is a wall of windows that face east and in the morning at sunrise the space is bathed in a beautiful golden yellow. We loved it.

My husband, sister, and brother-in-law enjoyed the quaintness and character of the home. Views were amazing! I loved the fact that I knew the people associated with the house. We enjoyed being able to walk to the shops in downtown Swansboro. Even though the fish were not biting, it was still nice having a private dock. It was a very relaxing getaway! Thanks for a great stay!Belinda K. Turner

Lovely old home on the White Oak

It was so peaceful on the dock. I just chilled for several days and walked across the highway to eat. My grandson packed up my bathroom things for me and accidentally put your blow dryer in my bag, sorry. I need an address to mail it back. Such a lovely old home!

Made the Best of it Despite Tropical Storm

House was clean and well stocked. Views of White Oak River were incredible. Walking distance to all the restaurants in Swansboro. The shared driveway with Il Cigno Italiano was a little annoying at dinner time, but that was minor. Evan was super responsive and helpful and on top of things when the power went out due to a tropical storm. Would definitely stay here again.

Great House

The house is in very good shape and we were provided with all of the necessities, including trash bags, dishwashing detergent, paper towels, toilet, paper, etc. The owners took great care in making sure the house was perfect for a group of four adults. The house would be also very good for a family. We would definitely stay there again.

Hidden Gem

Wonderful place to stay for a couple of days when to visiting my son whoo is a marine stationed at New River. Came to spend the Easter holiday. This home is situated off a busy road butlt you don't hear the traffic and it's like you're in your own little Oasis. Beautiful water views, wonderful sunrises ,clean comfortable beds, and close to so many restaurants and shopping within walking distance. Looking forward to staying again. We used the kyak and the house had plenty of beach chairs for a relaxing day at the beach. Highly recommend!

Winter coastal getaway

Fun stay! Beautiful historic cottage with mesmerizing views of the White Oak River. Perfect for two couples. Very responsive host and easy check in/out process. We lingered over the views, delicious meals and walks to downtown Swansboro. The home was very well-appointed and full of character and charm. Proximity to Hwy 24 was not an issue during our stay. The sunrises and sunsets were a main attraction. Would recommend for a relaxing visit to the NC coast.

A Wonderful Stay

This is our second time renting the property. The house is simply perfect for a family of four and could easily accommodate six. It's very clean and we had everything we needed to relax and enjoy our vacation. The views from the property are beautiful. We enjoyed coffee and sunrises on the dock and a game of horseshoes in the yard. The kitchen is well-appointed and it was great to be able to do a load of laundry before heading home. There are several grocery stores nearby. It's a quick walk under the bridge to Old Town Swansboro. We ate dinner while enjoying live music at the Boro, grabbed coffee at the upstairs coffee shop, and did plenty of shopping. We didn't pull out the kayak but were happy it was there and saw several people out on the water in front of our house throughout the week. While the house sits on the main road, it's very quiet inside. Its location is also perfect for heading over to Emerald Isle too. Can't recommend it enough.
