About this property

Enjoy spectacular sunrises, moon lit nights and gorgeous views of Core Sound from this recently renovated historic studio cabin. Pet friendly. 200 feet of private beach (this is the sound so it is not a beach with waves) and shared pier access. Pier can be used for motorized or non-motorized boats but the sound is very shallow and requires a flat bottom boat. Queen bed. High speed internet and smart TV. Streaming services with your own account. Bring your bikes to explore the town of Atlantic. Bring your boat/kayaks to take advantage of the outstanding fishing and beaches of Cape Lookout National Seashore that can be accessed by boat or ferry. Enjoy lunch at White Point Take Out. Dinner at Paddys Take Out or Wild Wills Revenge. No grocery store in town so make sure to stop along the way in Beaufort or New Bern. Dollar general is 5 miles away in Sealevel. Lovely restaurants and shopping in Beaufort, Morehead City and Atlantic Beach 25 mi. away.

Another great New Years break!

My wife and I have stayed here every New Years weekend for the past 3 years. If you are looking for a restful and quiet getaway we'd highly recommend this cottage. A short drive to Cedar Island and you'll have miles of beautiful beach to walk and enjoy with very few people at this time of year.

This is a tough one to review

OK- I am not reviewing this exact property. Why? - the system double booked this place (now fixed). The owners quickly and kindly offered us a large farmhouse that was 2 homes away from this one. It was fabulous. Large home, all the amenities and an amazing view and dock. Normally no pets but the owners made an exception for us. We agreed to not use the upstairs to save any additional cleaning with the dogs. Very clean and welcoming. No issues at all (well, there was no power when we got there due to prior storms). Caretaker was very responsive and let us know when Duke Power would have power back on. All in all a great stay and would book from these owners again.

Little getaway for relaxation and some fishing

Property was gorgeous and peaceful... Owners had problem with Vrbo and other company with overbooking but they took care of us and gave us their other Property which was just as charming as the cabin. Dock was so gorgeous... have nothing bad to say about anything. Extremely Extremely clean and Property was Very Maintained...

Such a beautiful relaxing cabin

I got out to relax and enjoy the view that the cabin provided. I had a wonderful time. The property was very well stocked and had the odds and ends you might forget. Would love to return.

Nice little cottage

The cottage was perfect for us and our two Yorkies. The only negative was its proximity to restaurants and the actual beach.

Perfect for 2

A beautiful waterfront location if you’re looking for a place to sit on the deck and enjoy the view. Also plenty to see and do in the area. Very quiet, lovely sunrises, lots of water birds to watch.

Cute and private bungalow on the water

We loved this little cottage! It's true that this isn't the kind of beach you can lay out and comfortably go swimming at, but we had a great time searching for shells, fishing, and wading through the water. If we had water shoes we probably would have gotten in more. It's also true that some residents and other visitors will come down the spur road occasionally, but we didnt have any issue with that, and it didnt happen an unreasonable amount of times so it still felt very private and secluded. We loved the abandoned buildings next to the property as it made it feel even more private for us, and if anyone thinks the house being overtaken by nature is ugly then I just feel sorry for you. Beautfiul views all around. We ordered groceries for pick-up in Beaufort on our way down, it was only about a half hour away. The only thing I will say is that if you plan on cooking A LOT like we did (we stayed 6 nights and cooked all but 3 meals) you might wanna bring a couple of your own pans and cooking utensils. You can tell the pans havent been taken very good care of by previous guests so it can be a challenge to work with them, but that's not the fault of the hosts. Appreciated all of the cookware/utensils they have there though and we made it work. We also tried both restaurants in town and they were both fantastic! Lastly, we really appreciate the hosts allowing us to bring our dog who greatly exceeds their weight limit as its very challenging to find places to bring him.He loved it!

The cottage was lovely and the view was quite beautiful. There were many amenities and the property manager, Felicia, could not have been nicer or more helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

Clean and Cozy

Pros: very clean, clear communication, seamless check-in/out process, dog friendly, A/C, propane grill, great wifi connection, large deck to sit and watch the water, felt safe. Perfect for 2 adults and 1 dog. We made sure to bring enough groceries since there is no store nearby. Didn’t get to try the restaurant but the host was kind enough to leave menus in the info packet. Not a beach. I learned that it is the Core Sound when I got there so don’t expect this to be a private beach, even though the picture looks like it would be. Most likely will have to drive somewhere to go to the beach/fishing/out to eat. Other reviews are right, all sorts of ppl coming in and out of the abandoned warehouse next to the property. But for us, staying 2 nights was the perfect amount of time just cooking, relaxing, watching Netflix, and playing with the dog.

Absolutely charming!!

I absolutely loved my stay here. It’s clean and it’s comfy. The view and sunrises are amazing. I enjoyed walking on the little private strand. I played with the hermit crabs walking on the shore every morning. They were adorable!! I’d never seen so many in the wild like that. I got some amazing videos of all of it.. some people have complained about the warehouse.. I myself enjoyed exploring it. I thought it was cool!! People did constant drive down there but it was only to look at the beautiful view with their families.. I didn’t see a problem with that as it didn’t interfere with my private time there at all.. the scenery is spectacular. I watched dolphins each day as I enjoyed my morning coffee.. it’s very secluded and private. I went alone to “recharge” and it was wonderful. I’d absolutely recommend this place and plan on coming back again. It was perfect. This place is a piece of paradise.
