About this property

Reelin In The Years is the Perfect blend of rustic charm and modern amenities!

Reelin' in the Years at Arlington Place is the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern amenities! The unique details and décor both inside and out make this cottage one of a kind. This is one of our Outfitter Cottages near Mill Creek and the kayak center. Neighborhood and cottage amenities make it the perfect for adventure or just relaxing.

This beautifully appointed 2BR, 1.5BA cottage features an open living, dining and kitchen area for a comfortable relaxing stay. This cottage is fully furnished and boasts 2 bedrooms (both upstairs) with a full bath. The primary bedroom has a king sized bed with a queen bed in the second bedroom. A shared full bath is upstairs. The first floor includes an open living room, dining room, kitchen, washer and dryer and powder room. The kitchen is equipped with refrigerator with ice-maker and water dispenser, gas stove/oven, dishwasher, drip coffee maker, microwave and all your basic cooking utensils. Off the living area is a 420 sq ft covered and screened in porch to expand your living space. WIFI and Streaming TV comes complimentary with the cottage. Linens and towels are provided. This cottage has a keypad entry for self check-in/check-out.

This delightful community boasts access to amenities that include clubhouse, pool, tennis courts, community boat ramp, and trails. The pool is open from mid-May to mid-October, from 8am - 8pm for you to enjoy. While you're there, step into the clubhouse with its large living area with TV, streaming services of Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN+. The community center also has an efficiency kitchen with a refrigerator, toaster oven and sink. There is also a small fitness room, restrooms, a landline phone, and Wi-Fi. Just outside of the community center and pool, you'll find even more activities for the whole family. There's a playground area for your younger children with sand volleyball, basketball and tennis courts for everyone else. You also have access to a gazebo, firepit, and park area across from the clubhouse. Please bring your own equipment for the sports courts.

If all these amenities are not quite enough, let us also introduce you to the Outfitter's Center. Located near the Outfitter's Cottages, it is a large screened-in wood building with a double sided stone wood burning fireplace and seating inside and on the back deck. There is charcoal park grill there that you are welcome to use. The kayaks are located on the left side of the center and are available on a first-come, first-served basis. You can follow the pier behind the Outfitter's center to the kayak launch. You will launch your kayaks into Mill Creek there. It's about a 1 mile paddle to the mouth of the river.

There is also a boat ramp located towards the riverfront where you can launch your boat. A parking area for your boat and trailer is adjacent to the ramp. You will need to sign a waiver in order to get the access code and parking passes prior to your arrival.

This home is perfect for a whole family getaway!

Weekend get away

Was perfect weekend in a private out of the way location but close enough to local restaurants in the area to go eat dinner or lunch with a short drive. Well worth the drive for a low key relaxing weekend would highly recommend.

Serene Getaway

Clean and comfortable house in a great location to get away from it all. Very quiet yet close to the neighborhood amenities. Short drive to Oriental or easy day trip to Atlantic Beach.

Last minute getaway

We have a wonderful time at Reeling in the years. The neighborhood is beautiful and the location is so relaxing. Check in was an ease. The house was clean and had a very cozy coastal atmosphere. We loved setting on the deck listening to all the wildlife. Enjoyed walks, fishing and playing cards. The beds were very comfortable. It was a wonderful time at this gem of a place for a last minute getaway.

Great property!

Our stay at Reelin' in the Years was great. The property was clean & comfortable. Nice finishes & modern appliances. AC worked great & screened in porch with fan is nice. Back porch overlooking Mill Creek is also perfect. It was relatively quiet during the first week of June 2023 & convenient to access the pool and paddle Mill Creek down to the Neuse from the outfitter center, two houses down. Recommended!

Reeling In The Years

Overall very disappointing considering the location & cost. Never able to connect to house internet so shared next door. Very limited TV servive, house poorly stocked. Not up to usual VRBO standards.

Property is great and we had an amazing time. My only complaint is that the smoke detectors go off when using the over/stove top. Just turning the oven on and opening the door will set them off.
