A roomy cottage right on the water. A little dated but adequate for our needs.

Gray Goose was a cute little place right on Brice’s Creek. Very private, and lots of kayaks to use while there. The place was pretty clean - bathroom off the master was a bit small for my very tall husband. Toilet and sink are very short but the walk in shower was great. Kitchen was well appointed with dishes, knives, pans, tools, spices and paper goods - the addition of a couple more cutting boards and some serving bowls/dishes would be good. Beds were average comfort and an extra blanket or two would be great. Would also recommend better curtains in the master bedroom as the outside lights really illuminated the room and could not be turned off. Excellent communications with Jeff (the owner) - he answered the few questions I had very quickly. Nice washer and dryer in the house. The next door neighbors have quite the animal collection - tortoises, an exotic bird and two large porcupines! The property was separated by a large fence - my only complaint was their dog was allowed to bark loudly rather early in the morning. Not sure if the creek is swimmable - boats tend to zoom around the curve in front of the beach so little ones would need to be watched carefully. Very close to town - maybe a 10 minute easy drive. New Bern was a lovely little town for shopping and dining. Added bonus of watching plans and jets from the back porch as the airport is very close by. We took day trips to Oriental and to Beaufort- highly recommend both. Our favorite room in the house was the back porch - excellent place to relax. Thanks Jeff!!
