We loved the cottage...small but perfect for us. Private, clean and very comfy. We could walk to everything and absolutely loved Beaufort! Note about the bathroom...it is very small and if you are a large person, it may be difficult to navigate.We will definitely stay here again! The Host was great.

We stayed at the "hideaway" for a quick little coastal getaway tacked on to a family reunion in another part of the state. It was very cozy and welcoming, and very clean!! It was an easy walking distance to the shops and restaurants downtown and an easy drive to Morehead City and Atlantic Beach should you choose to venture to either of those places. Very peaceful neighborhood. Wonderful hosts!

Great little cottage; centrally located to shops/restaurants. Really nice. Only suggestion is to put blinds on door.

That’s a new door that we just installed to allow more sunlight in. A blind to cover the glass is a great idea. We’ll add...... Enjoyed having you. Come back soon. Steve
