Location: Oriental, Central Coast, Coastal, North Carolina, USA (30 Miles from New Bern, the Closest Airport)

Accommodations:  Cottage, 2 Bedrooms + Detached Unit, 2.5 Baths (Sleeps 4-7)

Picturesque waterfront home with stunning views of the Neuse River!! Rock or swing on the wrap-around porch and watch the dolphins come up the river to play in the morning and head back down at dusk. Relax on the pier as you fish for croaker, flounder and more—or, tie a crabtrap to the piling and have fresh crab for dinner, unless you prefer grilling steaks on the gas grill.

Take a dip in the pool, or relax on the riverfront in an Adirondack chair as you watch the boats go by. The private beach is a perfect place to swim, sunbathe, kayak—or just relax in the hammock. Whatever you choose, you are sure to enjoy the slow pace and peaceful atmosphere at China Grove Plantation. For variety, bike or jog to Oriental, the “Sailing Capital of North Carolina,” or visit Coastal Living’s “10th Anniversary Idea House,” located at near-by River Dunes.

Cala Lily Cottage at China Grove Plantation sleeps 4-5 and features a separate guesthouse that can accommodate 2 more. Beautiful ocean-toned furnishings create an atmosphere so tranquil you will never want to leave. Ceiling fans in every room, separately zoned central air and heating systems, and a gas fireplace keep guests comfortable. The vaulted cathedral ceiling in the great room, which opens to the kitchen, allows everyone to visit as meals are prepared, while listening to their favorite background music on the Bose surround-sound system. The kitchen boasts new appliances and lots of amenities.

The upper level bedroom features a king bed, as well as a very large window seat perfect for curling up with a book—or for the night. The main floor bedroom (queen bed), with its private bath suite, includes a shower and separate soaking tub. The separate guesthouse is set up for entertaining, with a game table, TV/DVD, stereo system, refrigerator. The guesthouse sofa, with large cushy pillows, converts to a comfortable queen-sized bed for guests who want a private spot steps away from the main home. The main house and guesthouse feature easy access with only a single step up to each.

  • We escaped the New York holiday scene for the peace and quiet of the Inner Banks. Cala Lily was clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated. Our family has been renting coastal homes in the vicinity of Oriental for the past four years and this cottage is by far the most well appointed home we've stayed in. The morning sunrise walks to the point and the sunset toasts on the porch make Cala Lily truly a special place. We are already planning our next visit!

  • I stayed at Cala Lily cottage for a week in the Spring. The cottage is beautifully furnished and very comfortable. It has a very homespun beach feel to it. The view is spectacular of the Neuse River and I thoroughly enjoyed watching as kayakers and sailors moved up and down the river as I sat on the pier out the front door.I loved the fact that I could walk out the front door and be at the pool.The pool itself was extremely clean. The town of Oriental is a quick drive and quaint.I enjoyed having coffee in the morning at the locals place.The people were extremely friendly.The weather was beautiful for April although evenings were cool light jacket weather. I would go back in a heartbeat.
