Great time in Beaufort!

We had a wonderful time at this cute house! We were there right after Christmas and the house was decorated and we got a welcome gift! The house is perfect for a family of five or six and has a fenced in back yard as well. It is super close to town and just a perfect place for a getaway!

Lovely cottage full of artwork

We stayed here for my mom's 85th birthday getaway. The location is great, near the waterfront and main business district, and the house is beautifully decorated with an amazing collection of artwork, comfortable beds and other furniture, and a well-appointed kitchen. The back yard was also lovely and great for our dog.

Great stay in Beaufort

The house was very cozy and well supplied. There was a nice welcome gift and card waiting for us in the dining area. The house was very clean for being pet friendly. We couldn't take advantage of the rockers on the front porch because of the surprise storm with blowing winds and driving rains. The neighborhood was very quiet and those we met (when we could finally sit on the porch) were friendly, We highly recommend staying here. Laurie is an excellent host and very attentive to your needs.

2nd time, just as good as the first

Five stars! We loved our weeklong stay here, as repeat visitors. Attractive, comfortable house in a perfect location in downtown Beaufort, walkable to all in-town activities. Perfect size for a family of 4. Homeowner is extremely responsive to any and all concerns. Look forward to our next visit.

Wonderful Home, Lovely stay

Our first time staying at this lovely bungalow. Immediately felt at home and was very appreciative of the warm hospitality in each room, clearly the owners strive to leave a great impression with their guests which is very much appreciated and especially on our wedding weekend. Everyone was super impressed and we will surely book this property again!!

Don't look any further - you found it!

This property (and the host) exceeded our expectations in every way. The location is IDEAL - perhaps 5 houses from the water and a five minute walk to downtown Beaufort with its shops, bars, and restaurants. The property itself is WONDERFUL, craftsman-style bungalow that has been expanded and renovated - super welcoming and comfortable. The fenced-in backyard was immaculate and showed signs of recent landscaping. The host put so much thought and love into the decor and provided lovely, welcoming touches that demonstrated such pride in the property. We felt like so much more than guests! This spot will be our first (and only) choice when we head back to Beaufort.

Perfect Couples Getaway With Dog

Beau Tonic and the host provide the perfect Beaufort vacation! The single floor house, the location and the yard are all super for a getaway, and we enjoyed our stay so very much! It is wonderful to be able to bring the dog as well, and they even had a welcome gift upon arrival. We look forward to returning.

Perfect in every way!

We travelled here for almost a week with my elderly parents, husband, and dog, and this house and kind host made it possible for us to have the most wonderful Christmas holiday together. There is not enough space for me to write all the good things that I want to say about staying here, so I'll summarize: wonderful helpful and kind communication with the host before and during the trip (including last minute accommodations for a late check out), beautiful house (even better than the photos!), so so so clean, had everything we needed in stock including clear labels and tips, comfortable porch and sitting area inside, big kitchen for family cooking, a big table for eating and playing games, and single level for my elderly parents (including a good railing at the back entrance for anyone mobility-impaired). Such a great location close to town and yet peaceful, also less than 1 block walk from the water - and the best part was there's a garbage can (dog poop) and a bench (elderly parents) right where the road intersects with the water, making many walks easy and possible.

It was perfect all the way around. Communication with the property manager was excellent. The pictures don't do it justice as it was even better then advertised. I short walk to downtown and you have everything you need. We would certainly rent again.

About the host

Hosted by Laurie Daniel

My husband and I are from Durham, NC and currently live in Raleigh. We both grew up coming to the beaches in Carteret County and have always loved it. Our honeymoon was in Indian Beach and Beaufort has always been our happy place.

Why they chose this property

This is a peaceful, sunny home and you feel good as soon as you walk in the door. We've tried to make sure you have everything you need to enjoy and get the most out of your stay. It's perfect for a rest and rejuvenation break and equally as perfect for an active, full speed ahead vacation. Everyone is very friendly and there's always something to do. We love the small town feel of the area and the beautiful nature that surrounds us. It truly is our Beaufort Tonic and our small piece of paradise.

What makes this property unique

We love our front porch and many a bottle of wine has been consumed watching the horses on Carrot Island and the boats drifting down Taylor's Creek. We love being able to walk to Blue Moon, Aqua or Beaufort Grocery for dinner or down to the Dockhouse for some music. You won't want to miss the Beaufort Wine and Food Festival or the Summer Party hosted by the Beaufort Historical Association. Take a water taxi over to Shackleford or Bird Shoals and do some shelling. Atlantic Beach is just minutes away by car . The NC Maritime Museum is special and features all things related to Blackbeard the Pirate and Cape Lookout is breathtaking.
