Perfect House on the Water
Our stay at this VRBO rental was fantastic! The house was beautifully decorated, incredibly clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable vacation. With four spacious bedrooms, it easily accommodated our group, and the beds were wonderfully cozy—everyone slept so well!
The fully equipped kitchen was a highlight, allowing us to prepare meals with ease. It was stocked with all the essentials, making cooking a breeze.
The location couldn’t have been better—just a short distance from the inlets and the ocean, offering a perfect blend of serenity and convenience. We also loved being close to grocery stores for quick errands, and the nearby restaurants provided plenty of great dining options.
The price was fair for the quality and amenities provided. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and will definitely consider returning for our next getaway!
Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing, well-located, and comfortable vacation home.

Quiet Creekside Adventure
This turned out to be one of our favorite beach house rentals that our family has stayed at. The creek and kayak provided endless fun for kids. There was plenty of room to spread out in the house and the street was very peaceful. Living room with plenty of large windows overlooking the creek made for a cozy setting. Location is great - short drive to the beach, Fort Macon, Beaufort, and the aquarium.

STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND BOOK THIS PROPERTY!
Communication was so great, and super fast! Owners went ABOVE and BEYOND to make sure our trip with a toddler on oxygen was perfect- from getting our oxygen delivery to the house days before our arrival, checking in on us, etc. Inside is beautiful, and perfect! SOOO SPACIOUS! Outside is perfect, and we loved the water in the backyard, even got out a canoe one evening! Location is great. I feel like we did everything around Morehead City/Emerald Isle/Crystal Coast- but we're definitely looking for a reason to come back to this property!!

Great family house!
We were in Morehead for our wedding and used this house for our family, for our rehearsal dinner and for the girls to get ready on Saturday! It was perfect! Great space and beautifully located on the creek. Perfect views and pictures, plus the kids had a great time running around in the back yard! The house was decorated lovely- simple and beachy and Mel is great as a host. Easy communication and very kind! Will definitely stay there again!
