8 / 10Excellent·Apr 2026
The place was cozy, inside very clean and had what we needed. The outside landscaping could really use some work as briars were growing up through the deck. They did say that there would be bottled water and toiletries, however, there was none to be found. We enjoyed sitting on the deck watching boats going in and out and it was a perfect place for Bible and coffee in the morning. The peace and quiet was what we treasured the most. We were able to bring our dog, which is why we chose this property and we would come back with him again.

Great little cottage that was close to our fishing spot! It was tidy and had all of the basics that we needed for a weekend getaway. We did find the bed to be a lot more firm that we are used to and struggled the get the cottage cooled to a comfortable temperature the first night. The A/C unit is located in the bathroom and can't really cool the whole cottage that well. We closed off the kitchen / living room area the second night and that helped a good bit.

Everything was ok except my spouse and myself were very disappointed with the tv not having local channels on the Hulu app. We had to drive all the way to New Bern to watch the baseball playoff games. A vacuum would have helped to clean up a bit.
