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.

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!

Clean and Cozy
Pros: very clean, clear communication, seamless check-in/out process, dog friendly, A/C, propane grill, great wifi connection, large deck to sit and watch the water, felt safe. Perfect for 2 adults and 1 dog. We made sure to bring enough groceries since there is no store nearby. Didn’t get to try the restaurant but the host was kind enough to leave menus in the info packet. Not a beach. I learned that it is the Core Sound when I got there so don’t expect this to be a private beach, even though the picture looks like it would be. Most likely will have to drive somewhere to go to the beach/fishing/out to eat. Other reviews are right, all sorts of ppl coming in and out of the abandoned warehouse next to the property. But for us, staying 2 nights was the perfect amount of time just cooking, relaxing, watching Netflix, and playing with the dog.

Absolutely charming!!
I absolutely loved my stay here. It’s clean and it’s comfy. The view and sunrises are amazing. I enjoyed walking on the little private strand. I played with the hermit crabs walking on the shore every morning. They were adorable!! I’d never seen so many in the wild like that. I got some amazing videos of all of it.. some people have complained about the warehouse.. I myself enjoyed exploring it. I thought it was cool!! People did constant drive down there but it was only to look at the beautiful view with their families.. I didn’t see a problem with that as it didn’t interfere with my private time there at all.. the scenery is spectacular. I watched dolphins each day as I enjoyed my morning coffee.. it’s very secluded and private. I went alone to “recharge” and it was wonderful. I’d absolutely recommend this place and plan on coming back again. It was perfect. This place is a piece of paradise.

Peaceful getaway
This is a lovely out of the way cottage, perfect if you want peace and quiet. But be prepared to drive to Beaufort if you want a restaurant. The only real downside was lack of a sandy beach so not much room to shore fish. The place was extremely clean with some nice homey touches.

Nice little place
The cottage was cute and comfortable. Everything was accurate, and very clean. We were able to get into the cottage earlier than expected and we really appreciated that! The communication was great. Bring your own water and food, there's not much to do around the area, which we did know. One of the pictures on the listing appears to be the Atlantic Beach, not part of core sound. The little private beach was really nice, I just wish it had been cleaner. There were bricks, metal pieces, and broken glass that you did not see in the pictures. There is also an abandoned house and Warehouse near the property. The abandoned warehouse says no trespassing, but people are constantly coming and going there. We saw/heard a couple teenagers smashing things in the warehouse, and when we looked that way, they got in their golf cart really quick and drove away. It seems to be the neighbors, which is no fault of the owners at this cottage. The parents would even drive their little kids out here to explore the warehouse, which we thought was weird. Other than that, we had a really nice time and for the most part it was very quiet. I wouldn't be back just because I'd like to be closer to the beach next time, which was about 50 minutes away. North Atlantic Beach & Emerald Beach were really nice! If you are not bothered by the warehouse and the people coming and going, I'd say definitely go for it! The cottage really does have amazing views as stated in the other reviews.

Great weekend getaway!
Great host and great location! My wife and I enjoyed some much needed rest and relaxation away from the kids. This place was exactly what we needed. Peaceful and quiet with a great view! The hosts were awesome and had everything ready for us when we arrived. Highly recommend and will likely be coming back. Thank you!

Enjoyed our time at the Sound, sadly the rain from the previous week caused the beach to be less than expected but we still loved our time there. We are considering a return trip! The cottage also had some really cool little details within it.

Nice LITTLE place but surroundings, umm
The place is nice enough, but its adjacent to a house dilapidated and being claimed by mother nature. Literally part of the entry. There is a condemned warehouse next door as well that is an "attraction" for all the neighbors looky loos etc. So, its not very private, non stop cars parking to fish there on this private no trespassing property as well, and some of the neighbors in golf carts steady stream every night and day coming buy and either waving or even flipping us off a couple times. The view shown in the pictures is there, just don't look to the right. Not much at all to do there no restaurants etc, The oven and stove didn't work, the grill was great though! If you go, don't look to right don't want privacy bring plenty of your own food etc. and cook it on the grill. I'm sure the owners are nice people but we wont be back.

Perfect tiny cabin on the water
We stayed 5 nights and loved it! We brought our 16 year old dog Joanna, and she enjoyed her first beach trip! My husband and I cooked dinner every night together in the perfect little kitchen and slept very comfortably in the bed. The yard out back, leading to the water, is so beautiful! We enjoyed spending time out there, even though the weather wasn't perfect. We would love to stay again!
