Excellent Location for Exploring Pocosin Lakes Wildlife Refuge

Situated right on the Refuge Road, the location can’t be beat, but this is also an overall great VRBO. The cottage has been nicely refurbished, has all the amenities you’ll need and the owners are great and went out of their way to help make our visit Spectacular.

This house was perfect for us, we were there to see the swans and pungo lake was close by. It’s an older home but decorated cute and was very clean AND there was a loaf of pumpkin bread and jam waiting for us!!

PERFECT location

It was supposed to be me and my sister but her plans changed so my hubby came with me. It was a PERFECT location to spend 3 days at Pungo looking for bears and wildlife. Before we have stayed IN Washington and had to drive an hour each way roughly. Now we could go out as many times as we wanted to throughout the day and then return to rest at the house and use the bathroom and eat etc....... There is a Great Horned Owl that perches each night across the street on trees and poles and came in the yard at least once or twice each night. The house was comfortable and very clean. I have already made reservations for a few times next year. The little corner store makes breakfast and lunches. Simply limited menu but worked out well. I would recommend. The house had all the things needed in the kitchen. I always bring my Keurig and it broke. I was happy to find that the house has a coffee maker AND all the supplies (filters, cream, sugar, coffee). They always had a bunch of cooking spices, and all the laundry soap, dishwasher tabs, dishsodp, hand soap and shampoo that we needed. Sheets and towels were high quality. We needed for nothing while there. Perfect stay!!!

When we arrived, the door code did not work. The host did not answer for an hour and a half. When she did, I was told she had forgotten we were coming. The house had not been cleaned at all. She gave us fresh sheets for one of the beds. It was a very important trip for us, and a very poor experience. Would not recommend.

Second stay at this jewel and will be back !!

We absolutely love this home. It’s located on a preserve that offers wonderful photography in the winter (birds) and spring (bears) and many other species of animals/birds throughout the year. The home has everything you would want/need - TV, cable, internet, well supplied, outdoor seating and on the preserve. We will be back !!

We have nothing but good to say about this property ! It was clean, roomy, and had every thing we needed in the kitchen. And the location was perfect for us as we are into nature and photography. The owner was very responsive and helpful. In fact, we enjoyed it so much that we already booked our next visit. If you decide to rent this home, you will not be disappointed.

Can't Wait for Our Next Visit

This is our third stay on Leah's property, and we're already thinking about when we can go again. On two sides are huge farm fields, and the property is on the very edge of the Pocosin Lakes National Wildlife Refuge. We've explored this area in spring, summer and fall, and each time found a different profile of critters. Bears, turtles, birds, etc., etc.. Whenever I write a review of this place I leave out a lot, because we'd like to keep it all to ourselves. Thank you Leah (and family). We hope to see you soon. r&d

Peaceful and tranquil

We arrived late and Leah had left the back porch light on for us. Communicating with her about our stay and our needs were outstanding. She truly cared that we had everything we needed and we couldn't have asked for a more tranquil and peaceful home to stay in. Everything we could have possibly wanted or needed was provided and Leah was just a phone call away if we needed anything. The home was so clean and everything was new and beautiful. Sheveven provided things for my grandkids to play with. They were very happy playing soccer out in this large yard with a ball that Leah provided. Coffee, sugar, creamer was provided and I had everything I needed! Don't hesitate to stay in this warm and inviting home. The sunrises on the porch are spectacular!
