Buoy Oh Buoy! Cheerful family beach cottage just a block from the Ocean & Sound!

Escape your everyday stressors and relax at our cheerful beach cottage, Buoy Oh Buoy!

Located in the quiet heart of the Crystal Coast, you won't have to compete for the perfect beach spot. Enjoy the best of both worlds only one block from either the Atlantic Ocean or the Bogue Sound. A variety of restaurants and local attractions are just a short drive away. Vacation just moments from the very best Emerald Isle and the charming seaside towns of Beaufort and Morehead City have to offer!

Buoy Oh Buoy is outfitted with everything (everything!) you will need for a perfect beach getaway - chairs, umbrella and Shibumi sunshade, beach towels, a beach cart, coolers, commercial ice maker and even a margarita machine! There are two kayaks for an adventurous day on Bogue Sound. If you prefer to be active on land, Buoy Oh Buoy is located on Emerald Isle’s, safe, well-maintained running/walking/cycling path, near Mile Marker 13.5.

After fun in the sun, Buoy Oh Buoy has a hot-water outdoor shower to rinse off. There are two hammocks under the house where you can unwind with a great book. The deck offers a gas firepit and a hammock porch swing—perfect places to continue reconnecting with your loved ones.

Inside, the kitchen is meticulously equipped to turn your groceries into fabulous meals. No need to worry about hauling anything to the beach—the kitchen has a large refrigerator with ice maker, high quality cookware and cutlery, loads of chef’s tools, an enameled dutch oven, bakeware, and a slew of small electrics, including Kitchen Aid stand mixer, Breville ice cream maker, slow cooker, panini press, food processor, Nespresso Pixie espresso machine and Keurig coffee maker. The outdoor gas grill allows you to serve up summer anytime of the year. There's plenty of dishes, glasses, and utensils. Afterwards, don’t waste precious vacation time scrubbing; let the dishwasher do the work!

The primary suite is located on the top floor with a queen bed, large walk-in closet, full bathroom, and a private balcony with seating for two. On the main floor there are two additional bedrooms, each with a queen bed and closet space to unpack. The main floor bedrooms share a full bath, which also houses the large capacity Maytag washer and dryer. All beds include premium mattresses, cozy high thread-count linens, and extra pillows. High quality bath and kitchen towels are also provided.

On rainy days, gather in the living room and enjoy a movie from our beach-themed DVD collection or stream your favorites on AppleTV with Netflix, Hulu, HBOMax, Disney Plus, or Peacock. A collection of board games, card games, and puzzles are also provided. High speed Wi-Fi is accessible throughout the cottage, and Apple HomePods makes high-quality music streaming a breeze. We also provide a guide for nearby destinations to explore while you are staying with us.

We hope you enjoy your time at Buoy Oh Buoy and love your time on the Crystal Coast as much as we always do!
