READY TO EXPLORE
BEAUFORT
Make sure you plan a trip to Beaufort just a 20 minute drive off the island. Enjoy dinner at one of the many restaurants. Do a little shopping, buy some freshly made fudge and stroll along the dock of the inter-coastal water way. Look at the spectacular yachts anchored for the night. Make sure you visit the General Store for hand dipped ice cream. Better yet, book a boat tour and watch the horses run free on Shackleford Banks.

Atlantic Beach
The AB Town Park features a splash pad, large skatepark, 18-hole mini-golf course, half-court basketball court, picnic shelter, concession stand, & public restrooms. The park is free for use (mini-golf & concession stand items for a fee). The mini-golf course and concession stand are open on weekends only from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m. with mini-golf costing only $6 per person (age 6 and under free!) – the best family-friendly rates on the island!

Pine Knoll Shores Aquarium
The Aquarium has four main galleries that take visitors through the Mountains to the Ocean of NC. Inside the aquarium, at the start of your tour is a 32-foot smoky mountain waterfall. There are over 430,000 total gallons of saltwater and freshwater combined in displays.The Aquarium is 93,000 square feet.The largest habitat holds 306,000 gallons of saltwater.There are two hiking trails at the aquarium, The Theodore Roosevelt Nature Area trail and the Alice Hoffman Nature Trail.

Cape Lookout
History comes alive at the Cape Lookout Lighthouse and Keeper’s Quarters built in the mid-1800’s to warn passing ships of the dangerous coastal waters. Standing at 163 feet tall, the 207- step “Diamond Lady” lighthouse was painted with a distinctive black and white diamond pattern in order to distinguish direction -- North and South from East and West -- and differentiate it from other North Carolina lighthouses. This Crystal Coast must-see is open to visitors to climb during the summer, May through September.

Shackleford Banks
For more than 400 years the wild horses of Shackleford Banks have taken care of their young, frolicked on pristine deserted beaches and foraged for food with not a saddle or fence in sight. Visitors make their way to the island by private boat or ferry running from Harkers Island, Beaufort and Morehead City – and the captains of Island Express Ferry Service are more than happy to dish most of their secrets to shelling during the ride.

We know you will enjoy your stay. Our guests come back year after year and leave us many wonderful stories of their vacation.

'At the beach, life is different. Time doesn't move hour to hour but mood to moment. We live by the currents, plan by the tides and follow the sun.'

Very nice condo
The heated pool & jacuzzi were great. I think the pool was actually warmer than your average pool in the summer. Unfortunately you had to get out eventually. Beautiful view. Elevator made it being on the 3rd floor not a big deal.

Just perfect!
This property and its surroundings just blew me away. It truly does feel like paradise, the pictures don’t do it justice. The views from the balcony, the well manicured pool area, decorations, everything was just perfect. It was our 1st time in this area and definitely won’t be the last. Bonnie’s hospitality made our stay even better. The condo is well equipped with everything you may need and more. More times than not, it felt like the whole area was just for us, the beach is very private. The weather was perfect for this time of year, we took advantage of it and used the pool and hot tub every night. The heated pool was definitely a plus! I just can’t say enough about this place and area. We chose this place to celebrate my 40th birthday and it’s been the best birthday by far. Thank you Bonnie for letting us stay in your place!!! See you again soon!

Anniversary Getaway
Relaxing and enjoyable beach vacation. We went during the off season so a lot of places closed by 8pm. Area is quite, which I found to be super nice. There was a slight bug problem but it seems like management was already aware of it and was spraying around the property.

About the host

Hosted by Bonnie Barefoot & Jim Peden

Host profile image
My family and I have vacationed at the North Carolina beaches all of our lives. We have two grown children, one is a teacher and the other is a doctor. My husband and I are both N.C. natives. We are both retired. We love to share our beach home with friends and family. Our guests return year after year. We enjoy hearing about their families and special events in their lives that take place at the beach.

Why they chose this property

We purchased our condominium at the Ocean Club resort because of its beautiful landscaping, well built units, and great amenities. We are original owners and have made many Ocean Club friends over the years. The N.C. beaches are well maintained and Indian Beach has a great family atmosphere.

What makes this property unique

Our family enjoys the year round heated pool and jacuzzi. We love to watch the sunsets while sitting on the sound side dock or sit on our ocean front deck and watch the dolphins play in the surf.
Our condo has a walkway to the beach and pool. You do not have to walk across hot cement to get there. Take the elevator down to the covered garage area and access the walkway.
