Cute bungalow
Cute bungalow was clean, spacious and met all of our needs on our recent stay. Proximity to downtown offers the ability to walk to a variety of restaurants, a few shops and campus. The house provided everything we needed, the beds were comfortable and the coffee bar was a great addition. We spent a lot of time outside and enjoyed having that extra space in the yard as well. We will be back!

Pirates Retreat
Owner was very communicative and helpful! 5 star owner. Cottage as advertised and clean, neat, well updated. Neighborhood was just ok but close proximity to uptown which is nice and new. TV was streaming only which is a pain in the rear. Overall would stay again for sure.

Cozy, Clean and Convenient!
We throughly enjoyed our stay over the long weekend. The house was cozy, clean and convenient...indoors and outdoors… great all around for us and our pups. All was comfortable and enjoyable, we even had some family and friends to visit/hang in the family room and enjoyed Sunday family dinner in the Dining Room. The kitchen is smaller but with creativity it's definitely large enough to pull off a big meal. We are so happy to have found this great option for a Greenville getaway. Thank you so much!

Absolutely LOVED staying here. The house is so cute, nicely decorated and has everything you could ever need. The backyard and front porch are so cute. Walking distance to downtown and campus. Cassondra was extremely detailed in her communications and was a wonderful host. We will try to stay here every time we visit Greenville. Highly highly recommend staying here!!

Good Times
absolute perfection for 5 friends re-connecting from grad school which was 20 years ago! one of the best VRBO homes I have stayed in. proximity to ECU campus, downtown, shops, restaurants, bars could not have been closer. I never used my car during the 4 day stay. we did not mind the proximity to ECU student/Greek housing either, but other guests may need to consider this ;)

Getting Our ECU Senior Settled and Celebrating His 22nd Birthday
We loved staying at the Pirates Hide Away! It is our 2nd time staying here, and we will definitely stay again in the future. The house is only 1 mile to our Son's house, which made it very convenient for us getting him settled in for his Senior year at ECU and for celebrating his 22nd Birthday! We look forward to our next stay!

Nice clean place in downtown Greenville
Overall this was a good experience. The pros are the place is very clean, they provided a lot of items in the kitchen such as coffee and a little ice maker and the kitchen was well stocked with items needed. Also the rooms were larger and all had ceiling fans. Bathrooms have nicer towels, shampoo and soap dispensers on the shower walls, and even makeup towels. The AC worked well though it did go out the second night and they promptly had a repair person over on Saturday morning and quickly fixed the issue. I appreciate the quick responsiveness of the owners. The areas of improvement that would make it exceptional were the grass outside was very high and as a result there were a lot of mosquitos in the yard which made sitting outside challenging. There was also a neighbor throwing a party which was louder but still to be a little expected in a college town. Many of the door knobs in the place come loose to the rooms as they are very old doors and knobs and could be tightened and resolved. The final item to note is there are cameras stated in the listing. They do not create a super inviting feeling to want to sit outside and enjoy the nice porch and area. I understand the need for protection but it makes the experience of being outside less comfortable from a privacy and conversation aspect. Overall I do highly recommend if you need a place in Greenville to stay!
