Everything was great! A wonderful property, and Michelle was amazingly quick to respond to any question we had. Our boys thoroughly enjoyed fishing off the dock, and made friends with neighbors who offered advice! Everything was clean, well-maintained, and the perfect weekend getaway accomodations. We hope to return and stay again!

Great property right on the Neuse River in a neat neighborhood/community with a key west/island type vibe. Dale met us at the property, and offered solutions to parking our boats and campers. They were gracious in allowing our charitable organization to use their property to host 3 veterans in an inshore fishing camp. The house was great, and we hope to use again for the same event in the future.

Our stay at Sunrise on the Porch was wonderful. The home I was very comfortable for our family of 7. The beds slept great and we had plenty of room. The views are amazing and the property grounds are well kept. This area is so peaceful and is full of great fishing. The owners of this home are fast to respond to any questions. Dale even came out to help us catch and cook some crab caught off the dock on the property grounds. I highly recommend this home for your next vacation. We definitely plan on coming back.

Wonderful cabin for a family weekend getaway

The cabin was the perfect place to stay with our family for spending the weekend attending the NC Fossil Festival in nearby Aurora. We really enjoyed all of the outdoor seating options with beautiful views of the river. We even got to see a rainbow over the river! The house was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. We highly recommend this cabin!

Really special place

This is at least the 6th year we have stayed at this property. Owners are so welcoming, and do everything they can to make your time there relaxing. House is very comfortable, has everything you need and just a short drive to the ferry to morehead city/Beaufort area and quick drive to oriental !! We love going and the owners and folks in the area make you feel like you are part of their community.
