About this property

Private house in quiet village close to Cape lookout National Seashore

The William Andrew Way House, ca. 1872, is one of the oldest remaining homes in the charming village of Marshallberg, North Carolina. Marshallberg is one of the 13 communities of Down East on North Carolina's Crystal Coast. Marshallberg is close to the Cape Lookout National Seashore and is part of the North Carolina Outer Banks Scenic Byway. The Way House was thoroughly remodeled and modernized in 2012.

The kitchen is well equipped by the owner who loves to cook. It has a gas stove and dishwasher, an island counter with stools and a custom-built wooden table that seats 10 (and is great for working on jigsaw puzzles).

The master bedroom has a queen bed and private door into the bathroom.
The second bedroom has a queen bed and a single bed.
The library has a new Ikea couch that folds out into a single bed.
The library has a smart TV, DVD and Blue Ray player. There are also books and jigsaw puzzles and yoga equipment.
The house has WiFi.

The Way house has a private screened-in porch off the kitchen surrounded by bird-filled green space with a table and chairs for dining al fresco and the house comes with a gas Bar-B-Q.

The location is very quiet. There is a public dock off Center Street that faces Core Banks across Core Sound. The park at the end of the Marshallberg Road is a favorite place to watch the sunset. Beside the park a small harbor holds both pleasure and working boats. The village offers interesting walking and bicycling; two bikes are included with the rental.

Marshallberg is a short drive from the Harkers Island ferry to Cape Lookout National Seashore, the Harkers Island Waterfowl Museum, the Cedar Island ferry to Ocracoke, lovely Beaufort NC, Atlantic Beach, hiking in Croatan National Forest, historic Fort Macon State Park, historic New Bern and other historic North Carolina coastal towns.

The Way House suits couples and young families or as a writer's retreat.

Cute farmhouse away from the bustle of the main beaches
Overall we really enjoyed our stay at this cute renovated little farmhouse. It was very clean on the inside and comfortable. The neighborhood is fairly quiet and about half hour away from various activities like access to the ferries, beaches and shops. The only reason we give a four-star to the check-in process is because of our little snafu with the keys. Thanks to very helpful neighbors who helped us get in contact with the owners who live in Canada, we were able to resolve the issue. We would definitely recommend this house for couples and small families. The beaches in the area are absolutely beautiful for the North Atlantic. We highly recommend making use of the various ferries, especially to the lighthouse.

Our family of 4 stayed here for 5 nights as we visited Cape Lookout and surrounding areas. It was a nice getaway home, comfortable, quiet, and clean. We enjoyed all of the amenities that were offered to us. The only issue we had was the water was slow to drain down the tub. I would recommend this home and we would use it again.

Great time
My husband and I had a very nice time staying at this quaint little house. It is located in a quiet and walkable neighborhood. We enjoyed the large kitchen, the screened in back porch, and the library/TV room. Nicole and Alan are very gracious and helpful hosts and we are glad they shared their family’s vacation home with us!
