About this property

BEAU-COUP: A spacious, family-friendly home a block from the water in Beaufort.

A spacious, family-friendly, art-filled home just a block from the Taylor's Creek waterfront and a short walk to the charming downtown Beaufort historic district, Beau-coup offers a comfortable, convenient base from which to explore "America's Coolest Small Town" and the stunning Crystal Coast landscapes and waterways of the Rachel Carson Reserve, Fort Macon State Park, and Cape Lookout National Seashore, with their pristine beaches, uninhabited islands, and rich history and maritime cultures.

Located in a quiet residential neighborhood and adjacent to the oldest house in Beaufort (c. 1700)—where Blackbeard the pirate reportedly briefly resided—our peaceful family home features four bedrooms, two full baths, a large, modern kitchen, and plenty of common space (including a living room with abundant seating, front porch with swing, back screened porch with couches, and an ample back yard patio) to host up to eight guests. We're just a block from the water and a ten-minute walk to downtown, the perfect spot for a quiet visit to one of the most interesting, beautiful, and unique coastal towns in the South, the jewel of the Crystal Coast. Come visit us in Blackbeard's backyard!

We provide guests with a unique code for unrestricted, twenty-four hour entry to the house. You'll have the entire property to yourselves and total privacy.

Although we visit Beaufort as often as we're able, we live a few hours away in Chapel Hill. Please message us with any questions, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

Please carefully read our house manual and extensive local guidebook, both available here upon booking, for details, rules, and recommendations for local activities, exploration and recreation, and dining.

Host profile image
We moved to Chapel Hill, North Carolina, in 2006 from Philadelphia to attend graduate school at UNC (folklore for Brendan and costume production for Samantha). Although we both have backgrounds in art, these days Brendan works as a writer and record label owner, and Samantha is a real estate agent and designer. We have one son. We have been visiting Beaufort for almost two decades and are delighted to share our home and local knowledge with you.
