Sunset cottage

Beautiful cottage in a gorgeous location while still being conveniently close to Beaufort, Atlantic beach, and anything else. Cottage was clean, cozy, with stunning views inside or out. All together made for a great trip!

Perfect Cottage on Calico Creek

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our group of four had an amazing time at Sunset Cottage on Calico Creek! The place had everything we needed, and we loved the style of the place that gave it so much character. The screened-in porch was perfect for morning coffee and evening drinks while watching the creek. We also appreciated the tandem kayak — a great touch for some spontaneous fun on the water. It was the ideal mix of comfort, style, and relaxation. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a unique stay in Morehead City!

House has potential

Location was great! Management company was great! House itself was just ok, but could be cute as a button! Den and porch furniture need to be donated to Good Will or thrown in dump. They were old, stained , uncomfortable ,etc. We covered them up prior to sitting on them. Also need more sitting options in den. House had one couch and one chair. Decor is awful as well but the furniture was definitely our biggest complaint. Rest of house was fine though! The last suggestion would be to have cleaning supplies avaliable to help keep house tidy. House didnt have a broom, toilet bowl brush etc. I'm just one who likes to keep things clean etc. We would stay here again IF owners updated the furniture and decor. Again, the house has so much potential! Wouldn't take much to make it a more comfortable, appealing vacation home. Overall our time in Morehead City was great!

It served the purpose for a place to stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House was ok. Both bedrooms upstairs. Furniture to sit on (inside and out) both need updating and improving upon. Old and uncomfortable. Enjoyed the screened porch since the weather was very nice.
