Location: Beaufort, Central Coast, Coastal, North Carolina, USA (Near Outer Banks, Cape Lookout, Morehead City, Beaches.)
Accommodations: Cottage, 3 Bedrooms + Other (See Description), 3 Baths (Sleeps 2-8)
Lovely, Spacious Cottage in Historic and Beautiful "Beaufort-By-The-Sea". Great for Honeymoons, Golf, Fishing and Family vacations. We now have golf packages at discounted rates available for nearby Crystal Coast Golf Courses and Resorts!
Located just across the street from waterfront properties, you can enjoy fabulous views from the home's upper deck of Taylor's Creek Waterway and its ever-changing panorama of beautiful sailing ships, pleasure boats and fishing vessels. Visible just across the waterway, Carrot Island's many birds and famous wild Spanish Mustang horses are always fascinating to watch. And beyond the island, view the spectacular vista of the Back Sound and Shackleford Banks (portions of the Southern Outer Banks).
The spacious Master Bedroom has a king bed with a bath that connects to a smaller bedroom just right for kids on the queen inflatable mattress (adventure sleeping!). The large Front Bedroom has a king bed also and uses the hall bath and the Upstairs Bedroom has twin beds and roomy bath with shower. The Living Room sofa can sleep a child or small adult.
The cottage is decorated around a nautical theme and features hardwood floors, a large living room with built-in bookcases and fireplace with remote controlled gas logs. The Kitchen is fully equipped. There are many great cook books to choose from including seafood, coastal and local cuisine. The dining room seats 6-8. There is a unique wrought-iron and wood spiral staircase leading to an upstairs gathering room with bar and of course the deck!
All linen and towels (including beach towels) are provided. In addition, feel free to use on hand staples and supplies such as: tea, sugar substitute, salt & pepper, sugar, mustard, ketchup, mayonnaise, various other condiments, spices, paper plates, napkins, plastic flatware, paper towels, coffee filters, Kleenex, trash bags, dishwashing and laundry detergent, dish detergent, soap, cleaning supplies, dish linen, plastic & foil wrap and toilet paper. Basically, all you need to add is food and drink!
Many books on-sitefor you reading pleasure. Near by are several video stores and the public library. For rainy days or family fun there are games and cards available.
Beaufort is easily accessible via Interstate 95 or 40 to Highway 70 East (a four-lane highway).
The quaint shops, bustling marina and excellent restaurants are within walking/biking distance. Wander the lovely historic district, visit the Maritime Museum, go scuba diving or on a sightseeing cruise, drive a short distance the numerous Beaches or (my fave) simply sit on the front porch swing, enjoy the sea breeze and do nothing at all. You just may never want to leave!

Homeowner Response:
We value our guests observations and comments. As a result of this comment, several of the Master Bedroom's shades/blinds are being replaced this Saturday during the turnover cleaning. As far as the mattresses are concerned - they are more of an individual's personal comfort as far as firmness etc. We have had more than several comments in the past about them - all positive and at least two inquiries as to their exact brand so that these individuals could purchase the same ones.
