Plan B 2024 trip

Great stay! This was a plan B family trip on short notice since Hurricane Helene ruined our N.C. mountain trip. We couldn’t have asked for better for our group ranging from age 1 to 80. This property was perfect for all of us.

Our Stay

The host Adam was outstanding! We arrived early and he allowed us to check in before our scheduled time. The house was absolutely beautiful. My only concern was the cleaning staff was not great! There was dust everywhere on the counter tops and in the bathrooms. We actually had to clean before getting comfortable. Outside of that it was amazing!

Relaxing Getaway

We enjoyed every minute of our stay at this beautifully renovated home. We spent mornings adventuring in Beaufort, Morehead City and Atlantic Beach and afternoons relaxing in the hot tub or on the back deck or playing a game of pool, with evenings spent paddling on the kayaks that are available. This is birding paradise, be sure to bring binoculars! The host Adam lives right down the road and is there to help with anything you might need.

Nice!

We really enjoyed our stay. The neighborhood is very quiet and the location was very convenient for a quick drive into Beaufort or Morehead City. We loved the huge back deck and all of the nature and privacy. The host was very quick to respond to questions. We loved the layout of the home and all of the fresh, modern updates. The finished garage space was a nice bonus, especially since it was raining during so much of our stay. It was nice to hang out and play pool. We would stay again in the future.
