Welcome to Paws Awhile, your charming Oceanside retreat where relaxation comes naturally and every day feels like a breath of fresh, salty air. This beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home was thoughtfully curated to create the perfect setting for a memorable beach vacation - whether you’re traveling with family, friends, or your canine companions.

At the heart of the home, you’ll find a warm and inviting great room that seamlessly blends the living, dining, and kitchen areas into one comfortable gathering space. Designed with connection in mind, this central hub is perfect for movie nights on the Smart TV, catching up on your favorite shows, or simply enjoying each other’s company. High-speed wireless internet keeps you as connected as you’d like to be, but if unplugging is your vacation goal, there’s plenty of space to do that too. The dining area offers the ideal backdrop for card games, puzzles, and lingering conversations long after dinner ends.

The well-equipped kitchen is ready for everything from easy beach breakfasts to full family feasts. Featuring updated stainless steel appliances and stocked with all the essentials - utensils, small appliances, slow cooker, and even a gas grill - you’ll have everything you need to dine your way. Prefer to skip the cooking altogether? That’s perfectly fine. This is your time to unwind.

Step outside and let the coastal breeze do the rest. The front porch is furnished with rocking chairs - perfect for morning coffee, afternoon reading, or sunset chats! The back deck invites you to soak in the sea air, while the enclosed yard provides a wonderful space for family fun, including your four-legged friends!

Ready to hit the beach? The nearest public beach access is just one block away at Deer Horn Rd and Ocean Dr - making spontaneous seaside strolls effortless. For added convenience and fun, a golf cart is available to rent for $200/week + tax.

When it’s time to rest, three comfortable bedrooms await:

• Bedroom #1: A spacious King Suite with Smart TV and private en suite full bath - your peaceful retreat at day’s end.

• Bedroom #2: A cozy Double bedroom with Smart TV and access to a shared full bath.

• Bedroom #3: A Twin-over-Double Bunk room with Smart TV - ideal for kids or additional guests. Bedrooms #2 and #3 share a conveniently located full bath.

Located in the heart of Emerald Isle, Paws Awhile places you right in the middle of everything. Within two miles, you’ll find grocery stores, coffee shops, local restaurants, mini golf, walking and bike paths, and the Salty Pirate Water Park. The Bogue Inlet Pier is nearby for the anglers in your group, while a scenic drive brings you to the North Carolina Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores, Atlantic Beach, Fort Macon State Park, Morehead City, and historic Beaufort.

With so much to explore and a welcoming place to return to each day, Paws Awhile is the perfect home base for your next unforgettable beach getaway!
