We stayed for family weekend at ECU. Walking to dinner on the boardwalk to the quaint town of Washington and playing some pickleball right there at the nearby park. The back yard is huge and peaceful. We had everything we needed.

We love staying here and our dog always enjoys the big backyard to run it. While we prefer to stay on the water, this is a very fast drive or a quick walk to Backwater Jacks where we like to dock our boat. Convenient to Food Lion as well! Also, the yard is shaded which is nice during the hot months like July! We will definitely return!

This was our first time staying in Washington and we couldn’t have picked a better place to stay! The home was perfect for us and our dogs. They loved the yard, the shade from the trees, and the easy walk downtown. It’s a quick 20min drive to Goose Creek State Park as well which is a bonus!We definitely plan on staying here again in the future, and would recommend this cottage to anyone, especially if you are traveling with your dogs!

We had a wonderful stay in this cottage in Little Washington! The cottage is extremely clean, comfortable, and well-stocked. Our schnauzers loved the huge, fenced-in yard. The location is within walking distance of the waterfront, Estuarium, restaurants, and breweries. The owner, Patty, was top-notch in terms of prompt communication and addressing questions. Highly recommend this property!!
