Charming Historic Cottage with Private Waterfront on Core Sound -Pet Friendly

Enjoy spectacular sunrises, moon lit nights and gorgeous views of Core Sound from this recently renovated historic studio cabin. Pet friendly. 200 feet of private beach (this is the sound so it is not a beach with waves) and shared pier access. Pier can be used for motorized or non-motorized boats but the sound is very shallow and requires a flat bottom boat. Queen bed. High speed internet and smart TV. Streaming services with your own account. Bring your bikes to explore the town of Atlantic. Bring your boat/kayaks to take advantage of the outstanding fishing and beaches of Cape Lookout National Seashore that can be accessed by boat or ferry. Enjoy lunch at White Point Take Out. Dinner at Paddys Take Out or Wild Wills Revenge. No grocery store in town so make sure to stop along the way in Beaufort or New Bern. Dollar general is 5 miles away in Sealevel. Lovely restaurants and shopping in Beaufort, Morehead City and Atlantic Beach 25 mi. away.
During your stay at this cottage, you'll be close to Cedar Creek Marina. The cottage includes amenities such as a kitchen and a patio.
  • Air-conditioned cottage with kitchen, patio and living room
  • 6 minutes by car from Cedar Creek Marina and 7 minutes from Mariners
Charming Historic Cottage with Private Waterfront on Core Sound -Pet Friendly offers its guests barbecue grills. The front desk is open around the clock.

8th Anniversary

It was a quaint and cozy cabin. Our overall experience was wonderful. It started off rocky as we arrived later than we anticipated. We knew the cabin was pet friendly and anticipated such but was very disappointed when we pulled the navy blue bed linens back and they were covered in pet hair. Dollar General to the Rescue! We had an amazing time. Even in the rain. I can’t imagine the stories this small piece of heaven could tell. I know there is a history here that is amazing. Thank you for sharing with us!

Cute little cottage

Just needed a place to stay for business so this was a perfect spot for a quick trip. Comfy bed and full kitchen was all we needed. Right on the wayer was a plus.

Another great New Years break!

My wife and I have stayed here every New Years weekend for the past 3 years. If you are looking for a restful and quiet getaway we'd highly recommend this cottage. A short drive to Cedar Island and you'll have miles of beautiful beach to walk and enjoy with very few people at this time of year.

This is a tough one to review

OK- I am not reviewing this exact property. Why? - the system double booked this place (now fixed). The owners quickly and kindly offered us a large farmhouse that was 2 homes away from this one. It was fabulous. Large home, all the amenities and an amazing view and dock. Normally no pets but the owners made an exception for us. We agreed to not use the upstairs to save any additional cleaning with the dogs. Very clean and welcoming. No issues at all (well, there was no power when we got there due to prior storms). Caretaker was very responsive and let us know when Duke Power would have power back on. All in all a great stay and would book from these owners again.

Little getaway for relaxation and some fishing

Property was gorgeous and peaceful... Owners had problem with Vrbo and other company with overbooking but they took care of us and gave us their other Property which was just as charming as the cabin. Dock was so gorgeous... have nothing bad to say about anything. Extremely Extremely clean and Property was Very Maintained...

We had a nice, quiet weekend here. We liked the layout of the house, the deck, and the large yard. We brought our dogs, and they had a blast running around. They even made a doggie friend. Neighbors are very friendly. We would definitely stay again.

Such a beautiful relaxing cabin

I got out to relax and enjoy the view that the cabin provided. I had a wonderful time. The property was very well stocked and had the odds and ends you might forget. Would love to return.

The cottage was perfect for us and our two Yorkies. The only negative was its proximity to restaurants and the actual beach.

A beautiful waterfront location if you’re looking for a place to sit on the deck and enjoy the view. Also plenty to see and do in the area. Very quiet, lovely sunrises, lots of water birds to watch.

Cute and private bungalow on the water

We loved this little cottage! It's true that this isn't the kind of beach you can lay out and comfortably go swimming at, but we had a great time searching for shells, fishing, and wading through the water. If we had water shoes we probably would have gotten in more. It's also true that some residents and other visitors will come down the spur road occasionally, but we didnt have any issue with that, and it didnt happen an unreasonable amount of times so it still felt very private and secluded. We loved the abandoned buildings next to the property as it made it feel even more private for us, and if anyone thinks the house being overtaken by nature is ugly then I just feel sorry for you. Beautfiul views all around. We ordered groceries for pick-up in Beaufort on our way down, it was only about a half hour away. The only thing I will say is that if you plan on cooking A LOT like we did (we stayed 6 nights and cooked all but 3 meals) you might wanna bring a couple of your own pans and cooking utensils. You can tell the pans havent been taken very good care of by previous guests so it can be a challenge to work with them, but that's not the fault of the hosts. Appreciated all of the cookware/utensils they have there though and we made it work. We also tried both restaurants in town and they were both fantastic! Lastly, we really appreciate the hosts allowing us to bring our dog who greatly exceeds their weight limit as its very challenging to find places to bring him.He loved it!

Remote and beautiful

The cottage was lovely and the view was quite beautiful. There were many amenities and the property manager, Felicia, could not have been nicer or more helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.
