Steps from the water with a private dock, a big relaxing porch & great amenities
Our cute and cozy cabin is steps from the water of Back Creek. Bring your boat and come out for a relaxing stay! Don't forget the poles. There's plenty of fish right out your front door. The cabin itself has all the comforts of home. It is open spaced with a full kitchen, queen bed and two chairs that convert into single cots. Our peaceful porch is perfect for a cookout, napping on our lounge for two with mosquito netting or just watching the fish jump. The space The picturesque and quiet town of Bath is North Carolina’s oldest town and port of entry. Bath is home to less than 300 folks and was the stomping grounds of Edward Teach, the infamous pirate Blackbeard. Located on the Pamlico river, there is water everywhere. Our property is peaceful and serene with a large and inviting porch. Our home sits on the back of the property while the cabin is steps from the water and dock. Our cabin is designed for two or a small family. While we can sleep four, it is one open space with no bedroom for privacy. You can bring 4 adults, but the chairs that convert to cots aren’t great for older backs and we DO NOT recommend unless you want to tough it out. Children will sleep just fine. We are in walking distance to all that Bath has to offer. There is a visitor’s center, two restaurants, a store, shops and several historic sites. We’ve even got an ABC store! Goose Creek State Park is only 6 miles away. It has beautiful hiking trails and private sandy beaches. We hope to host you soon! Guest access You are welcome to wander anywhere on our property!

Beyond our expectations for a single room cabin. Had everything you could possibly ask for in terms of supplies. Very peaceful property and the creek view, along with the gentle breeze was very relaxing. The host was very customer friendly! We would most certainly recommend this property to our all our friends
We had the most relaxing time here. The weather was gorgeous and we even saw the pink moon over the water. It was so peaceful. Waking up to the view was amazing. The hosts were so nice. It was clean, cozy and comfy. Great coffee and tea bar with tons of options! There are restaurants close by and it's an easy drive into Washington. Our dog loved it here. We'll be back any time we're back in town.
Absolutely beautiful place and peaceful area! Host were very accommodating, super helpful and friendly! Would highly recommend for a peaceful, relaxing getaway!
This was the perfect getaway for me and my husband. We wanted to unwind after the holidays. The cabin was so quaint, it had everything you could think of and more. Being on the water, sitting on the deck or porch was so relaxing. The hosts were very nice and easy to communicate with. Will definitely be back.
The cabin was clean, cozy and had a very cute theme. It was perfect for a weekend getaway. We had everything we needed and appreciated the pet friendly touches. I’d definitely recommend booking to enjoy a coffee with a view. :)

Great place on beautiful water. Highly recommended!
This is a great location to visit with excellent accommodations. Carmen and Darryl were excellent hosts with whom you would like to share a glass of wine. Carman even facilitated our kayak adventure.
Awesome time here! Couldn't have asked for a better location/scenery for a relaxing weekend. The hosts (Carmen and Darryl) were excellent. They added a lot of small touched that really made this weekend great!
This was my second time staying at Carmen and Darryl’s Bath cottage, and I enjoyed it just as much as the first time. It’s comfortable, clean, peaceful, in a beautiful setting, and convenient for me to visit with family. I’ll very likely return.

It was a pleasure to host you again Becky. You are welcome anytime.
The house was in a quiet neighborhood. The scene from the back porch was very calming. Nice, on the water views. A great place if you need some quiet time away from people.
Very peaceful place to stay. Host was excellent with communication and available to answer questions. The dock and water were beautiful! Great for a weekend getaway!
We are transplants from California. We love it here and we’re never going back except to visit our massive family. We are very outgoing, friendly and happy people. We have met the nicest folks and have made lifelong friends with our rentals. We enjoy every aspect of hosting and treat all of our guests like family. We’re simple laidback folks with a quirk or two. Who isn’t quirky? We love to host and entertain and meet people from all walks of life. When can we meet you?
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with Bath the 1st time we visited and hoped that one day we could live here. When we came to view the property a year later, we knew we found home.
What makes this property unique
Our place is special because we are on the water with a private dock. The porch is perfect for relaxing and the neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. We’re sure you’ll love it as much as we do!
