We did not bring pets because my. Brother got sick and could not come.. Golf cart was fun but had a flat tire on back right and the headlights did not work. We got tire pumped. Loved house and pool and sitting inside and outside. This is my second time renting this house. It is wonderful.

Perfect Coastal Getaway

The Boro Bungalow was immaculately clean and decorated beautifully to set the tone for a coastal getaway. The furniture and bedding were very comfortable and the location was perfect for exploring Swansboro and the beautiful Crystal Coast. While the grill and pool provided a wonderful retreat from the busy days of exploration, the fire pit was an added treat and perfect for making s’mores at night.

Boro Bungalow

We had a perfect stay @ the Boro Bungalow. The house is simply perfect and so much fun! Ideal location to head into Emerald Isle beaches and then come back and hang out by the pool…the golf cart made for fun family cruises to downtown Swansboro and all of its charm… the house is spotless, family friendly in the cutest quiet neighborhood. Thank you so much for a wonderful getaway!

Perfect Little Getaway

We stayed at Boro Bungalow for a 3-night stay. We had been so looking forward to this getaway and it did not disappoint! We mainly booked the cottage because it had a private pool. We didn't even go over to the beach as we hung out at the pool most of the time. The pool was perfect! The pictures don't do the property justice! We loved it and will be back again. The only thing I might suggest is that it would be nice if the bedrooms had a bedside lamp. There was only one in the master suite. Otherwise, everything was great!!!! Thanks Laura for your hospitality!!!

The house was great! Kitchen had everything we needed, the pool was great, landscaping was beautiful. The golf cart was a great bonus, we took cruises everyday. It was great to be able to grab a drink and cruise down to the waterfront for sunset. We had a wonderful time!

Love the private pool!

This is a fantastic property with a private pool, grill and entire house. It is within walking distance to historic Swansboro. They even have pool floats. It was nice they furnish the linens, towels and even pool towels. The Lowes grocery store close and there is a great fresh seafood market between the bridges to Cedar Point. Nice quiet neighborhood.

This was a very special house. My sister and brother and their spouses stayed there. They found it perfect in every way, clean, well appointed. We loved the back deck and the pool and the wood to build a fire outside. We even had visiting kids in the pool. The golf cart was the cherry on top.

Second time staying here and now we consider this home away from home and will be booking again for next year. The owners are very responsive. We had a little trouble with the golf cart and they were there within minutes to get it fixed! Neighborhood is so nice and quiet! Perfect location and just a few minutes drive to Emerald Isle where we spent the day and then back to hang around the pool. Cant wait to get back!

Perfect Little Paradise!

We loved everything about the Boro Bungalow right in the historic district of Swansboro! The home has been beautifully done with updates throughout. The pool was fantastic every day after a day of adventure. The weather was hot and the pool was a great way to cool off! Our pups loved the fenced-in back yard, and my husband and I loved that they were safe and secure, but able to move about freely. The home was very clean, comfortable, and in a perfect location-2 houses down from a cute park if you have little ones and walking distance to Front Street in downtown Swansboro. We definitely enjoyed the golf cart provided to explore the neighborhood, too. We walked our 2 pups daily and loved that we were so close to the water. There's even a water view outside of the bathroom window and from the back deck! Swansboro might be the friendliest place we have been- living up to it's name, "The Friendly City by the Sea". Everyone was so kind and welcoming and we loved exoloring the boutiques and restaurants downtown. We loved listening to music at Bake Bottle and Brew and we got to attend their last Sunday outdoor music concert at the pavilion downtown. A beautiful small coastal town with all it's charm! We also loved exploring the nearby towns of Emerald Isle and Beaufort (an absolute favorite)! If you love small coatal towns, get to Beaufort too! Our host was very responsive when I would reach out with questions or small needs. We absolutely recommend!!

Amazing House for our Family Beach Trip

This house was perfect for our family beach trip; even our dogs were able to come and that meant the world. The pool and fenced in backyard was gorgeous—-my teenager had us swimming in the pool every single night of our trip. My husband loved that we could take the golf cart downtown to eat. The house was clean and prefer for our family of 3!!!

Trendy home for a great family vacation

The home was just as described. We enjoyed riding the golf cart to town and enjoyed several restaurants. The pool and outdoor area were well managed and secure for our small dog. We would return to this home and the overall areas. Highly recommend visiting Hammock Beach State park and taking the ferry to Bear Island, only 5 mins from the home. The drive to several nearby beachs had plenty of shops and restaurants to make the drive worth while.
