Some places simply take your breath away from the moment you arrive. Summer Loving is one of those places – a sprawling, oceanfront retreat where every detail is designed for togetherness, relaxation, and unforgettable memories.
Located in the sought-after Sea Watch community along North Carolina’s Crystal Coast, this magnificent 8-bedroom, 7.5-bathroom cottage combines luxury amenities with the kind of charm and comfort that makes you feel instantly at home. Four of the bedrooms are spacious primary suites – two of them oceanfront with private baths and deck access, including one with a whirlpool tub. The lower level delights younger guests with a whimsical children’s bedroom, complete with a custom-built castle bed, slide, and TV.
From the moment you step into the top-level living area, the ocean is your constant companion. Twelve windows and a pair of French doors frame sweeping Atlantic views, filling the space with natural light. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream – granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, double ovens, two refrigerators, and two dishwashers – perfect for cooking and serving meals for a full house. Gather around the bar or enjoy leisurely dinners at two large dining tables that seat everyone comfortably. A wet bar with a mini fridge off the living area adds to the ease of entertaining.
Entertainment is endless here. Watch the big game or your favorite films on one of 11 flat-screen TVs, curl up in the theatre room with its large projection screen, or head to the rec room for some friendly competition with foosball, pool, and air hockey. Music lovers will appreciate the state-of-the-art sound system that plays throughout the home and out by the pool, setting the soundtrack to your stay.
Outdoors, Summer Loving continues to impress. Sip your morning coffee on covered and open decks furnished with rockers and lounge chairs, or dine al fresco at the large outdoor table overlooking the ocean. Cool off in your private 13’ x 28’ oceanfront pool, unwind in the hot tub, grill up fresh seafood, or test your skills on the putting green. A private boardwalk leads you directly to the beach, with a dune deck that’s perfect for sunrise, sunset, or spotting dolphins.

See what some of our previous guests had to say about their stay in Summer Loving:
“This is our second visit to this house. It is our annual family reunion and there are 21 people of all ages that come from all over. We have been getting together for 11 years and this house is the only house everyone agreed to come back to. Conveniently located to many things it is great for all of the teens and young adults in the family who like to explore. This house had something for everyone.”
“The house was fabulous for our family get-together of five families numbering 20 people. The kids loved the “castle room” as they called it, and the theater was a big hit as was the game room. The spacious top floor “gathering space” was perfect for our group, and it was one of the main reasons I tried to get this particular house. We were amazed at how well-provisioned the kitchen was and that we were able to seat everyone for the evening meal. The pool was in constant use and the beach convenient without being right on top of it. Emerald Isle Realty was great to work with and very responsive to our needs.”
