Wonderful in every way for family and friends

A special vacation celebrating a birthday with family and friends in a prefect setting and location. The house was cozy, nicely decorated and comfortable with a connection to historic Carteret County. It is conveniently located a short walk from the waterfront. Hard to imagine a more ideal cottage for us.

Perfect for us!

We needed a place to stay for a last minute fishing trip, and "Fish Tails" was everything we needed and more. It is very convenient to the Morehead City waterfront, local restaurants, etc. The cottage is very nicely appointented and maintained. We go down several times a year to go fishing, and this is now our first choice for future trips!

Super awesome cottage.

Small nicely decorated beach cottage. With owners easy to communicate with and ready to answer any questions along the way. We overslept and texted the owners to request a few more minutes to check out and they put no pressure on us. Giving us the time to not feel rushed in the morning to check out. Was an awesome stay.

Fish Tails Cottage

The cottage is quite comfortable and very quaint. One bedroom opens up to the living room, and does not have a door. Just something to keep in mind. Otherwise, the neighborhood is very quiet, very close to the beach, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Very fun.

Cute cottage. Not much privacy, so stay there with people with whom you are comfortable. Nice little kitchen. The big dining room table handled meals and games well. Both the front and back porches were pleasant. It is a quick walk to the restaurants and shops on the waterfront. The host was communicative and had good suggestions for us. We had a very fun stay.

Cute, quaint, centrally located

We loved everything about this property. The owner met us at the house and it was so nice having someone who knows the area meet and greet you. They gave us some suggestions on where to go eat (which were really good) and even took time to check on us our 2nd day. The house is central to so many places so don’t just limit your time at Atlantic beach. The neighborhood looks like it’s more year round residences vs weekly rentals and the neighbors were friendly. Will definitely stay there again.

Noisy air conditioner

Would not have rented had I seen it didn't have central air. However, it would have been fine if the unit in the small bedroom wasn't so loud! It was impossible to sleep with it on! Needs replacement!!

Quiet and Cozy

The house showed well like in the pics and is centrally located to a great selection of restaurants. The outside back porch was great to sit and relax and the house was clean. This house has air conditioned window units and it stayed muggy only in the one back bedroom. There is only one bathroom and you have to go through a bedroom to get to it. The pillows on the bed were definitely outdated. Overall - this is a cute little house in a quiet neighborhood.
