Beachfront vacation rentals in Appalachian Mountains

This home exceeded our expectations! The location of this home was just beautiful. The home itself was very roomy yet cozy for 2 families with 3 children to enjoy. It was also super clean. This Airbnb had the best equipped kitchen i’ve ever seen in a rental with plenty of good quality pots, pans, dishes bowls, various glassware for cocktails, and grilling tools. Even plenty of plastic dishes for kids, ziplock bags and plastic wrap! No detail was forgotten. There are plenty of areas to enjoy meals or just hang out inside the house , out on the deck or on the patio. I also wanted to mention there were plenty of towels, extra pillows and bedding for all 7 of us. I didn’t have any issues but reached out to Matthew to let him know we were very pleased with his home and he responded right away. Matthew’s home provided us with the opportunity to enjoy a wonderful family vacation in Emerald Isle and we look forward to visiting again in the future.

Our second stay at this beautiful location. You can't beat the view and proximity to the beach. The owner is very responsive, and communication was timely and clear.

Well equipped house within very short walking distance to quite, private beach. Great amenities -- including bikes, kayak and paddle board. Private beach was gorgeous and very dog friendly, water was calm and shallow. Short driving distance to Lewes for great food, including terrific crabs.

We absolutely loved our stay at Kearney Castle and we will definitely be back. The rental was in the perfect location and the views of the ocean were perfection. I love that the owners allow us to bring our dogs. They loved the beach too! The hosts recommendations for local restaurants were spot on. We loved Mulligans and Noosa Beach Grille. The deck was awesome also. we visited off season but the street was quiet and the beach was mostly empty, which we loved for the dogs! The house isn't brand new but that's what we loved. We loved the handwritten note instructions on the fridge and the sea shell shelf as a guest book of memories for all the past guests!

Michelle’s home is pristinely clean and beautiful! The layout is perfect for a group. The elevator was so helpful for my ADA needs, as well as in general for our groceries and luggage. Between the two decks and fenced backyard, there are multiple outdoor ocean side options for relaxing, meals, or games. Our group also really enjoyed the kayak. Michelle is a great communicator and so hospitable. Highly recommend, and we look forward to a future stay.

Space was perfect for us staying as a family of 6. Bedrooms were great and the home offered plenty of space throughout. Awesome backyard, although we did not really use - very close beach access. Had all the amenities we needed for a long weekend!

This place was just perfect for my little family! We loved the location, and enjoyed the amenities of the home. Stef was a great host, providing helpful information in advance! Highly recommend!

Perfect little place, for my solo shelling trip. The location could not be any better, when I’m not on the beach, I am on the porch taking in the ocean views. This was my second stay at this lovely cottage, and I have already booked my next stay.

Our stay at Pam's place was fantastic. We love the beach and it was so nice to have the balcony, as well as both bedroom windows facing the ocean. The location was perfect. The space itself was very clean and larger than expected. Everything was outstanding

Place was very nice and though we did not need anything, Cindy reached out multiple times to make sure all was well. Seven men on a golf trip and my son’s birthday. Plenty of space and pool was really nice after golfing in the morning and afternoons. Kitchen table was big and had plenty of room for meals and cards at night. Home was as advertised. Plenty of room for all of us. Short ride to many golf courses and Muriel’s Inlet for the restaurants. Would definitely stay there again.

We had a wonderful stay at Dare2Dream. The house is in the perfect location at North Beach. The private pool/spa and the elevator made our stay perfect with children and elderly parents. We had plenty of space, everyone had a private bedroom and in suite bath. Love the decor and the views. Will we come back, absolutely!!

Clean fresh feeling, well furnished and comfortable. Kaili was extremely responsive. Pool is lovely.

Lovely home! Super sweet and responsive hosts. This was a perfect getaway for our spring break. The home itself was beautifully decorated and had plenty of space for several adults and children. Each room has its own full bath which made things easier for all - and the hot water heater handled the load of us incredibly well! The car port and side yard handled our three large SUVs with room to spare. The balconies were lovely to utilize in the mornings and afternoons, and we spent several nights around the huge fire pit. The wall separating the two units is very thin, which was the only drawback when the neighbors were up late. Otherwise, awesome stay and would highly recommend!

Summer’s place is a great place to stay. Right across the street from the beach with easy access. Home is a nice clean and relaxing place to unwind after a day at the beach. Summer was very accommodating with a request and truly appreciated her hospitality. I highly recommend staying here. Great bang for your buck. Would definitely stay again. Thanks so much Summer!!

We had such a great time here that our 6 year old son cried when it was time to leave! The house is beautiful, comfortable, clean, and the backyard is truly an oasis. The pool and backyard area can’t be beat! The pool toys provided along with the backyard games were such a fantastic addition to our stay. Upon arrival, we were met with a box of baked goods and even little chocolates on the beach towels! It was such a nice touch that we’ve never experienced before at a rental. The beach is only a five minute walk away and the restaurants at barefoot landing are only a five minute drive. This location really is amazingly convenient! The neighborhood felt safe and we enjoyed going for walks with our dog in it. This truly felt like home away from home and we hope to be back in the future!

Very nice cottage in the middle of nature and in front of the lake… ideal for a break from the city ! Megan is reactive and communicating with her was easy.

We cannot wait to return. This house looks small but had everything our group of 5 needed and more. Two bathrooms, sizeable bedrooms, well stocked kitchen and personal touches, too. We woke every morning for the amazing sunrise which can be viewed by sitting comfortably on the deck, the rocks, or right inside the house, if it gets too cold. We cooked at home, but also loved 908 Bistro and Captain Parkers pub. Easy drive to Chatham. This house is so very lovely and nothing compares to being right on the beach. Samantha was very responsive. Instructions were clear. We were there off season, so it was quiet and peaceful. Already searching for dates to return.

This home is absolutely beautiful. I loved being able to wake up early and watch the sun rise over the Chesapeake bay. Even though it was cold the kids enjoyed splashing in the water with their rain boots. We spent the Wednesday before Thanksgiving at colonial Williamsburg. Afterwards we ate at Captain George’s, a place Tas recommended. It was absolutely worth it. I was also pleased with being able to make a good Thanksgiving meal. The stay was relaxing and peaceful. We would love to come back in the near future.

Shay was an excellent host and I would definitely return for another visit. The place is really as it is right on the lake shore with a private beach. The house is excellent with all the required amenities for a quiet and peaceful weekend. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a lake front holiday.

A beautiful property just as described! A great to place to stay!

Perfect location for a Thanksgiving get away. Super close to the ocean and the little downtown area. Access to Morehead City and beautiful Beaufort is just minutes away. The house efficiently packs 3 bedrooms and 3 baths with a fully loaded kitchen. Beautiful sunsets and amazing ocean walks. Communication with Steve is a solid 10!!!

we rented La Spiaggia in December, and while it's mostly going to be more beautiful and better in the summer (since it's a beach house) it was still perfectly fine in the winter; well insulated and with good strong heaters. speaking of the beach I can't stress enough of how close this place is to the water; I'm talking literally ten steps to the sand. I would certainly recommend the place as a great summer getaway!

Although we stayed at a home that we did not select (due to homeowner emergency) we were provided a home with identical amenities. Nicole was very responsive and her property was well taken care of. The location was awesome! Just a few minutes walk to the beach. She provided lots of recommendations and the house was more than adequately stocked. Each bedroom offered extra linens, extra bath towels and more than enough kitchenware. Will definitely stay at one of Nicole’s properties again!

Our stay here was phenomenal!! Nhiza was very responsive and helpful with any questions we had. The house is right beside a public beach access so we were able to walk to the water very easily. It was also well stocked with dishes and towels for us to use. I would definitely stay here again!!
