Charming Soundside Home including Golf Cart, Kayaks, Bikes & Linens-Emerald Isle

Beautifully appointed and remodeled home at Emerald Isle within only 1/2 block of Bogue Sound and a short 10 minute walk (or 5 minute golf cart ride) to the Lee Avenue beach access. Relax on the screened porch with a cup of coffee in the morning or in the evening with a glass of wine. You may spot a few deer going through the yard which are a delight to kids and adults alike. Three bedrooms (all with new queen mattresses- a queen and twin air mattress for a tag-a-long guests), two baths with a brand new outdoor shower (Carport level). Amenities included in the rental are: 2 kayaks with paddles, 1 stand up paddle board, boogie boards, 4 bikes (bring your own helmets), 10 beach chairs, Shibumi, beach umbrella, ping pong table, sand/beach toys and corn hole. Games and puzzles are also included along with beach towels, sheets/pillows/blankets for beds (triple sheeted) and towels for bathrooms, outdoor shower and kitchen. The home also offers a fully equipped kitchen, large walk in closets, washer and 2 dryers. A golf cart is included in the rental unlike many homes on the island. All these extras are huge cost savings for our guests, especially considering you typically have to rent linens, kayaks, paddle boards, bikes, and a golf cart. This home has everything. Just bring your food and clothes!

Great family vacation!

This is a great spot for your next family vacation at Emerald Isle! The house is clean and comfortable and the location is great. You are close to the beach and plenty to do. The property owners provide many things you will need for your stay so there is less to pack...always a plus when traveling with kids! The owners go above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable and are highly responsive. Ping pong table was great too!

Beach vacation

The house is great and the owner was very responsive but there are a lot of dos and don’ts. It’s a little hard to completely relax and not worry about accidentally doing something wrong. The primary access to the beach via golf cart was closed for bridge repairs the first part of our week. That was inconvenient! But the screened porch and the outdoor shower made up for everything!

Relaxing Beach Getaway

We loved this lovely beach getaway with so many wonderful amenities that made our stay enjoyable for us and all of our children. The home was clean and well stocked with things to make our stay welcoming. The screened in porch was a quiet place to start the day! The location was perfect with easy access to the beach and the sound. So many things to brag about. We would definitely recommend this rental and hope to be back.

Chele's treehouse, Emerald Isle NC

Spotlessly clean, well-appointed and lovingly decorated home with great amenities like a golf cart, kayaks, chairs and beach bikes. Felt right at home...enjoyed the screen porch and deck for outdoor dining. Wish it was a bit closer to the beach, but the golf cart makes up for this. Would stay there again!

Great place to stay in Emerald Isle

We had a fabulous week in Emerald Isle and much of that was due to staying in this house. Use of the golf cart for beach (parking right at the beach access) and ice cream trips was so fun and convenient. We also enjoyed spending time at the house playing ping pong or hanging out and watching movies. The owners were very responsive and great to work with. We'd stay here again, and again!

The house was well decorated and welcoming. Loved screened in porch for early morning coffee. Well stocked kitchen. The yard was beautiful with flowers and planters. Golf cart was a plus to get back and forth to beach and get ice cream. Had everything there that you would need for the beach. Hostess, Angela was awesome! She was quick to respond to text and answer questions. Love everything was labeled and directions were typed out placed throughout house from how to use Alexa to what to do before leaving. The notebook full of helpful information was great!

This house has all the amenities you need for a relaxing beach stay. It is truly like staying at a friend's home. Angela was incredibly attentive and you can tell this home is more than a rental, but her sanctuary she is sharing with her guests. The host was very invested in our enjoyment of our stay. Our family especially enjoyed the outdoor living spaces, which were great rain or shine. The location is perfect for day trips to areas of intrest nearby. We enjoyed discovering the charming town of Swannsboro.

Perfect Home for your Family Retreat or Girl's getaway!

Beautifully decorated and immaculate home was the perfect getaway for our family of 4 (2 grown sons 24 & 25). Amazing resort touches with fragrant hand soaps in each bathroom, spa towels, fantastic cuisinart coffee maker, and access to all the toys needed to keep us all entertained. Private and beautifully landscaped, we saw deer early morning on the property and heard an owl several nights from the screened porch. The screened porch is set up for some serious R&R, reading or a glass of wine and it has beautiful edison string lights for the night. Close by and easy access to lots of great restaurants, and to catch the sunset off the sound. Owner was fantastic with communication! We would love to come back again - so glad I found this home on my VRBO search!

Wonderful experience!

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Emerald Isle! The beach was beautiful and so close to the house we rented. Chele’s Island Tree House was also perfect! It was comfortable, extremely well equipped, clean and close to everything. The owners provided a golf cart and all the essentials (chairs, umbrellas, towels, beach toys etc) for our use at the beach. We will definitely go back to Emerald Isle and hope to stay at Chele’s Island Tree House again!
