Thank you for taking the time to write a review. Ken may have been traveling and stayed at many listings. Just to clarify for guests looking to stay at Calico Escape, we do not have a pool or breakfast.

Quiet efficiency with gorgeous sunsets

This was the perfect place for my stay - quiet, beautifully situated on an inlet with a dock to walk out on and a patio to enjoy the sunrise and sunset. The unit is extremely well laid out, perfect for a single or couple. Pleasant and very helpful host. The location is convenient to downtown Morehead, historic Beaufort, and the beaches are just a short drive away - but this is an ideal place to come home to, whether you've been swimming or boating or visiting family.

morehead city stay

The unit was clean, beautiful view, tv had plenty of options, bed was comfortable. The only odd thing is that there is no sink in the bathroom, so you have to use the sink in the kitchenette but it was ok. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to stay there again.

Perfect place

I was in town for a week of training, so alone and had a schedule. The unit was perfect in every way. Located super near the training site but even better was the location on the river. Every morning i walked out on the pier and watched the sunrise, crabs, watermen, sea birds, mussels spitting, and just enjoyed the start of the day. The bed was very comfortable and the unit, clean. I would stay again for sure!

We are sorry to hear that you did not enjoy your stay. Everything is as advertised (queen bed, eating area, etc) and the pictures are very accurate. We have a beautiful creek view but it does have high tide and low tide which in our opinion adds beauty and variation to the view. Our dock is just a community dock so for those whose trip agenda is fishing, we recommend booking a fishing charter or fishing at Oceanana Pier which is close by but has deep ocean water.

Getaway

My husband and I wanted a quiet place for a little getaway. This place was perfect for the two of us. It was very clean and easy to access. Beaches and food were a close drive. The pier also had a great view.

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It was clean, well appointed, and very quiet. The view of the river and access to the pier were a great added bonus.
