Very charming, welcoming, clean and nicely decorated. The kitchen is well equipped for light cooking. The gardens are absolutely beautiful. The patio in the garden is a very nice place to have morning coffee, afternoon tea, drinks and if it’s not too hot, an evening fire in the fire pit. The host is wonderful and very helpful.

Stayed here while visiting family in the area. This place is in the middle of everything in Beaufort - though stays quiet as it's set back from Live Oaks. Janet was a great host with tons of recommendations and a very friendly dog.

Daniel, thank you for the fabulous review. I hope you and Jamison can come for another visit soon. Since I am a local and think Beaufort is the best place to live in the world (and I have traveled a lot), I'm always excited to share what is happening in the area and the best restaurants to visit. Since Beaufort is dog-friendly, even Jamison wasn't left out on the fun! I'm so glad you had such a great visit with your family.

Old Homes Week

I selected Janet's apartment because it fit our need. We were four and the space was right for our needs. Also, I am a Beaufort native and I recognized the name of the hostess as a member of a family with whom I was familiar. My family had a very comfortable stay. The facilities were described precisely and the hostess helped us enjoy our stay.

An absolutely lovely getaway!

Oh man. My partner and I had such a great stay here. Janet, the owner, was incredibly friendly, responsive and hospitable. She even had a bottle of wine waiting for us when we arrived. She is a Salter as well, which connects back to Salter’s Path, which was really cool and added a bit of history to our stay. The apartment above her home was rustic (in all the right ways) and clean, filled with paintings she’d done over the years which were a beautiful addition. Whenever we had questions she was more than willing to assist. We loved it here and will definitely be back!

What an amazing find! We were treated to a bottle of wine and juice for my 5 year old upon arrival! This cottage apartment has everything you need and more while staying in beautiful Beaufort. The owner has taken time to make sure you have all you need will staying there, from beautiful decor to a kitchenette, linens, and more! Take time to get to know the owner, Janet and her fur baby, Chloe! Janet will welcome you with a smile and give you some great tips on where to go eat, shop and explore! Also, get to know Chloe, Janet’s precious dog. My daughter played fetch with her in the evenings & fell in love with her, you will too! We can’t wait to return!

Wonderful Experience in Beaufort

My partner and I stayed with Janet for three nights! The property was absolutely beautiful, full of lovely wooden furniture and art done by Janet and her family. There were four rooms - a bedroom, a large bathroom (with a great shower), a living room (with TV, couch, plenty of DVDs and games), and a kitchen (table/chairs, fridge and freezer, dishes, simple cooking supplies). There was a coffee maker and coffee provided as well - really, Janet went above and beyond thinking of everything we might have needed. Janet was just the most wonderful hostess - she was full of great recommendations for things to do around Beaufort, and we enjoyed a glass of wine on porch and an outside fire with her and her friends. We would be remiss if we didn't mention Chloe - a friendly, well behaved, and energetic Aussiedoodle who completely stole our hearts. Puppy cuddles were definitely a bonus of this stay! We were about 10 minute drive from the beach, a few minutes drive from downtown Beaufort, but in a quiet and charming neighborhood. Couldn't have asked for a better stay for a beach vacation!

About the host

Hosted by Janet Salter McLendon

Host profile image
My name is Janet SALTER McLendon. I grew up in the house, and the family-loving vibes are everywhere. I have lived in the area most of my life and moved into the family home after my parents passed. I am a retired Instructional Technology Facilitator who taught in the Carteret County School System. Currently, I manage two RV parks, five vacation rentals, and a marina. I love cooking, painting, resin art, and working in the yard and garden, but most of all, I love to travel (the reason I continue to work to support my travel habits). Chloe, my Aussiedoodle, and I welcome you to "A Salter's Path". We love to meet our guests on the porch around 5 pm for a beverage and to get to know each other. Since I have lived in the area for most of my life, I am your concierge and can advise you on restaurants and places to see and visit. So porch time is important! I have a Google calendar of events that are happening in this area. Check out what is happening during your stay, or look at the month's head for other things you may want to come back and experience.

Why they chose this property

This property is in a quiet neighborhood and within walking/biking distance from downtown Beaufort. Beaufort is a historical town that will take you back to the 1700s. The double-decker bus tour will show you around town and the area's history. The Maritime Museum features Blackbeard's Queen Anne’s Revenge Artifacts and explores what working in the waters for a living around Beaufort was like. Beaufort has hosted a Pirate Invasion every year since the 1950s. Dressing like a pirate is a good idea, or they may just kidnap you and take you back to their encampment! If you can’t come that weekend, there is a pirate ghost walk you may want to checkout. Water sports include kayaking, paddleboarding, boat tours, and parasailing. Numerous boat trips are available for you to take and explore Cape Lookout, Rachel Carson Estuary, Sand Dollar Island, and Shackleford Banks, where the Spanish wild mustangs are located. Book the Crystal Coast Lady, tour the waterways, or take the Lookout catamaran on a sunset cruise. Oh, do not forget to spend time in downtown Beaufort; the shopping and the restaurants are fabulous.

What makes this property unique

I am! I love to meet people and share my knowledge of the area. You can play downtown all day, but come home to a quiet, safe neighborhood. I have two bikes you are welcome to use, and avoid both the parking and the fees during the day, downtown parking is free after 5 pm. We are only 15 minutes from Atlantic Beach and Fort Macon, five minutes from the Beaufort Club Golf Course, and twenty minutes from the Core Sound Waterfowl Museum and Heritage Center.
