We had a wonderful time at the Rustic Peacock. It had everything we needed and LeAnn couldn’t have been nicer or easier to work with. The location was lovely and kept us socially distant from other visitors on the beach. One of our most highly rated vacations and we’ve been up and down the coast!

Location was great! When we arrived the umbrella outside was broken and i told the cleaning company... all they did was take umbrella from the pool and brought up to our deck... hence we did not have an umbrella at the pool. The outside furniture was ok not the best. The dishwasher was broken till thursday... the owner was responsive but it was a major inconvenience with 9 people in one house. The man putting the dishwasher in was not wearing a mask and very slow!!! Other than that it was a great week.

The best two weeks of my life! I’m not sure how to accurately describe the experience we had other than to say you have to experience it for yourself! The house is situated right on beachfront on the point of Emerald Isle. The point is a magical place that must be experienced at least once if you are a beach (and shell) lover. The neighbors are very friendly, the vibe is positive and it feels cozy and safe. The house looks exactly as it does in the listing but better in person. It’s updated and was perfect for our family of 6. It could easily fit 10 people. Check in couldn’t have been any easier. The owners responded to my emails in record time and with more thorough info than I even asked for. They were AMAZING! I had the rare opportunity to meet them while we were there and they were even more friendly in person. The decor is coastal, warm and inviting. The property is well maintained and everything was in good shape, it was clean, PLENTY of towels (which has been an issue with previous rentals), spices, salt and pepper, coffee filters, coffee, oils and vinegar, garbage bags, and more were there. I cooked all but two meals and had everything I needed there! The appliances are all worked well and having a washer & dryer was a huge bonus. Because of the pandemic, I am homeschooling my children and the wifi worked great for us the whole time, even during a two day wind storm. The pool was an amazing feature as I have one child that doesn’t like to swim in the ocean. She said it was her favorite part because it’s clean and warm :) I have not one bad thing to say about our stay here! The only thing I would want to make a potential renter aware of; there is a short walk from the end of the boardwalk to the beach and you have to walk through the dunes which can get a little challenging. This was no issue for my husband and I, or our children but may be an issue for folks with limited physical capabilities. That said, you are 4 houses away from the end of the road and right at the end there is public access to the beach. There is a staircase that brings you over the dune and you can walk downhill and then on mostly flat sand from there out to the beach/ocean. So if you are traveling with someone who is limited in their ability to walk tougher terrain I would highly recommend taking that route to the beach. We met a wonderful family while we were there and decided to make this an annual trip with them so we WILL be visiting The Rustic Peacock again!

We really enjoyed staying at this property. It is located at the very tip on the western side of the island, and the beach is much wider there with few people around. You could walk around the tip of the island to quiet waters. The house is big and has all the needed amenities. The pool is nice for young kids and adults. It is big enough to have a room for a few people. Would definitely consider coming back.

Wonderful rental. We loved the location and having a pool was an added bonus. LeAnn was very responsive and made everything so easy. This is a great spot!

Wonderful property! We really enjoyed our stay and hope to return again! Check in and out was very simple, house was amazing! Great time at the beach!

Was looking for a place to unplug and found the perfect place. The vacation rental we originally had booked was damaged with the hurricane. We had less than one week to find another place. LeAnn answered all questions quickly and we booked this unit in less than 1 day. The views are amazing. Loved the sunsets, pool, peace and quiet. It is exactly what our family needed. Can't wait to return.

Wonderful views! Quiet location with endless beaches! Right on the beach and loved the pool! House had everything we needed.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Rustic Peacock - West. The rental was well appointed and provided everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. It was nice having the option of going to the beach or just relaxing in the private pool. The beach was HUGE and being almost at the end of the point, few have access so it was very private. Overall we were very pleased and would recommend.

Overall, the home was ideal for 2 families. The beach was amazing and we really didn’t have any issues with sharing the pool with another family in the duplex. The only changes I would suggest are for the outdoor porch to have better coverage as the one small umbrella didn’t really shade from the morning and afternoon sun. Also, it would be great to have an outdoor enclosed shower with hot water. Other than that, we had perfect weather and really enjoyed our vacation week!

Such a great home! Just stayed at this spacious, clean, beautiful home with gorgeous oceanfront views, pool, and large outdoor deck seating. Close to everything including the pier. LeAnn so wonderfuly accomodating to answer any questions and make sure all needs met to have a great time! The walk to the beach is a little hike but the 9 of us managed just fine. No problem for us but might be for someone with heart or breathing issues. Thanks again for the opportunity to share in your paradise!

This was our first trip to Emerald Isle and this location near the point was ideal, no crowds. The unit was clean and appropriately furnished with all of the necessary kitchen items. The pool was a real bonus for everyone, especially the grandchildren.

The Rustic Peacock truly felt like a home away from home! It was clean and very well taken care of. Truly perfect for our large family. Breathtaking views of the beach, and it felt like it was our own little beach with it being right on the point. We will be coming back!

Nice house! New paint, carpet and furniture. All necessary items in kitchen and decent towels and linens. The location is the best part! Beach is super wide so takes some steps to get to ocean but it’s quiet and beautiful! Great hosts who replied timely to everything we asked! Will return.
