Everything about this place was amazing. From the communication with the owners to the location, it was all great. The only bad thing about our entire stay was having to leave.

Our second time staying here. Another enjoyable trip. Very well located historical home with some upgrades. Comfortable inside. Wonderful morning shaded two story porches. Bring your books. Private courtyard in the back. The owner maintains the southern coastal charm with the landscaping. The house is well equipped inside and out. 4 bikes are in the garage. Easy walk to downtown-less than 10 minutes. Country gift store around the corner. Breakfast diner and wine/beer bar across the street.

Overall lovely home near everything
Older home with plenty of charm and very spacious and comfortable. Beautiful back yard, porch and front porch to relax and enjoy. Furniture and layout of home was all very comfortable. The only reason I did not give it a five was due to a couple of areas needing improvement such as one ceiling spot in need of patching and repair. Owner was very responsive!

Wonderful home!
Win - win! The house was perfect for us. Being just blocks from the waterfront made for a beautiful breeze whenever using the outdoor seating. I am slightly handicapped and the master bath provided just what I needed. Nice kitchen and plenty of seating for all who are staying. 2 thumbs up. I will return.

Visit with Marine son
We had a wonderful time with our son and the other family that shared the house with us. House has areas for people to spread out into and do different things. Beds are very comfortable and the backyard is great for grilling out. The town is just a few steps around the corner. Highly recommend. Owner easy to communicate with.

Had a great time, took advantage of the bicycles, went to the beach every day.
First time staying in Morehead and not on the beach, but close enough to everything. The beach, Fort Macon, shopping, restaurants, had a great time. Thank you.

Very pleasant stay with great central location
Our group really enjoyed the house in morehead city. It was a short drive to Atlantic beach one direction and also a short drive to Beaufort in the other direction. We utilized the nice backyard space for cooking out and road the provided bikes around the neighbor enjoying local shops and food. Highly recommend the corner store up the street they were very nice and had good ice cream. Overall a lovely and accommodating stay.

Amazing place!
We rented this home for the 33rd annual seafood festival and our time spent here unforgettable. For the past 33 years, our family has spent the seafood festival weekend on the boat at th Dockside. Our family has outgrown the boat and we decided to rent this home that is close to all the shops, dining, and night life that downtown Morehead city has to offer. The home was clean, well stocked, and did not disappoint! The pictures don't do it justice. We hope to return in 2020!

JUST PERFECT!
The home was perfect for our family. Every detail anticipating what someone would need was already taken care of. It was beautiful inside and everything published as included was there and working well. We loved having bikes to ride, a nice patio, being in walking distance of food locations, the balcony with swings and chairs was a BIG hit also. We would definitely stay again when we visit Morehead.

Cute house in a great downtown location
We stayed here for a weekend and really enjoyed the property. The house is bigger than expected - in addition to the den and kitchen pictured, there is another large living area. The bedrooms are all very nice. The kitchen had most of the amenities needed and the owner said they are adding some additional items needed based on our feedback. Everything was smooth with check-in / check out - the owners were very responsive when we had questions. We enjoyed walking around the downtown area and exploring the neat shops and walking to dinner in the evening. We will definitely consider staying here again when we return next year.
