Front St. Waterfront Cottage with Private Dock, Views, Walk to historic town

Definitely a 10 out of 10! Stan and Lauren are wonderful to work with. Communications were prompt and thorough. We were minutes from downtown, restaurants and grocery stores.This was a Spring Break trip for me and my husband, teenage daughter and my mom. We each had our own rooms and bathrooms which worked out perfectly! The cottage was very welcoming and we had everything we needed. We loved spending time sitting at the table or in the family room chatting while watching the creek and the nature preserve.The weather was beautiful, so we always had the windows and screen doors open. Most nights you could here the ocean. The deck upstairs is a great addition to the cottage and it was fun to go up there to look out over the preserve.The wildlife that we saw just from the house was more than we could have asked for. We saw the wild horses on the reserve across the creek from the cottage. My husband kayaked over to the reserve one day and was able to see additional horses on the other side during high tide. There were two days when we spotted the dolphins in the creek. During low tide one afternoon we spotted an ibis eating near the dock. But our favorite was the green anole that would come out on the porch several times a day and delight us with his little dance and chest puffing.We would definitely recommend Stan and Lauren's cottage to anyone looking for a wonderful waterfront getaway!

Great place. Would stay again.

Host were welcoming and available. What a great view!

It would be impossible to choose any one thing as standing out above another at this property as every single aspect was outstanding, from the initial contact with the owner, to the home, itself, the amenities, cleanliness, the surrounding property, the incredible dock, location, and the town. I really hate to brag too much because I want this to be our own secret oasis but the truth is I couldn't find a single thing to not love about our entire stay here. It is truly one of the best VRBO rentals we've every had. The owners could not have been more helpful, friendlier, or accommodating, before, during, and even after our stay. The home, itself, is absolutely stunning, as is the property it sits on. I would daresay it's one of the best pieces of property in Beaufort, situated right on Taylor Creek. The photos online do not do the home justice. It is truly beautiful in person. The views are stunning, so even from inside the home, you feel like you are outside. And if you do any cooking like we do, we were thrilled to find the kitchen stocked with really good quality cookware, not the usual scratch and dent kind that should've been thrown out years before. It was the perfect vacay for our family, friends, and doggo. Our greatest joy was probably time spent on the dock every day watching the boats cruise Taylor Creek, the almost daily visits from the wild ponies grazing on the island across the creek, the dolphins playing in front of us, and visits from the various sea birds.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this VRBO in Beaufort! The home was incredibly comfy, clean, and stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. From the cozy furnishings to the thoughtful touches throughout, it was clear the hosts put a lot of care into making guests feel welcome. Having the dock for our boat made it perfect for our needs The location was perfect for exploring beautiful Beaufort, and we felt right at home the entire time.Highly recommend—would definitely stay here again!

We absolutely loved our stay! Stan was incredibly responsive, and the house was truly perfect. It had everything we needed, from a fully stocked kitchen to comfortable, well-appointed bedrooms. The inside was amazing, but the real bonus was the dock! We were able to put our boat in and dock overnight, then took a quick 5-minute ride up Front Street to all the shops and restaurants. It couldn’t have been more convenient. We will absolutely be staying here again!

Excellent location for a visit to the Crystal Coast. Beaufort is charming and just a walk away. We enjoyed our time. The host is very available if needed.

Stan was an excellent host and this property is just amazing! We travel to Beaufort/Morehead City every year for our anniversary, and this waterfront cottage did not disappoint. Nice new dock with a cleaning station and the views from the second story deck were just phenomenal! We had great fishing, got to see the dolphins and ponies, and truly didn’t want for a thing! Outstanding place to stay and we can’t wait to go back!

Location, location, location. On the water and close to the shops & restaurants.

What a gem. We had an amazing time, just so relaxing and such incredible views. We will be back for sure. Owner was available for anything we needed the entire time. Bring your boat and enjoy!

Our stay could not have been better. Lovely house, fabulous views of the water (and horses) from inside the house, very comfortable. Very quiet neighborhood, felt very safe. Loved exploring (and shopping) in Beaufort. We were there during Erin, which had little to no impact on us. Couple of extra high tides, which caused some really minor road flooding. Certainly would choose this house again!

Great Home & Location. Excellent Docking for our boat . Looking forward to staying again. Highly Recommend!

We had a fabulous time. The pictures don’t do this home justice! Stunning views! Stan was very helpful and communicated with us throughout our stay to make sure everything was perfect! We will definitely stay here again.

Perfect.

We really enjoyed this beautiful, comfotable home on Taylors Creek.We spent most of our time on the dock wayching boats and the wild horses. We saw porpoises one evening.The house had everything we could possibly want or need for fun, comfort and cooking.It was nice to walk to town for shopping and restaurants. We even made the short trip to Atlantic Beach for a nice day at the beach.Perfect in every way.

As soon as you walk in the front door, you get the distinct feeling that you’re home. It’s cozy and has a nostalgic feel with the bathroom tile walls and quirky dining room chandelier. But the view is the best!! We saw and heard horses right across from the house, and though I didn’t see dolphins, I’m pretty sure I heard them one night. Great communication with the host, too. The house has everything you need to cook or bake and the furniture is very comfortable. It’s a 10 minute walk to downtown and the neighbors are super friendly. I can’t wait to go back!!

We stayed for 5d in the winter. The property is on the channel, and it sits within a quiet neighborhood. The owners were responsive once we made contact with them. The decor is nautical and there are lots of board games in the unit for family time. However, we found ourselves minimizing our time in the unit because it was difficult for us to breathe. The owners, to disinfect the air and surfaces the he home, fill it with ozone between visitors. I have exercise-induced asthma, which I think this exacerbated. The property has been smoked in and pets have stayed there. We normally do fine around light amounts of these indoor allergens, but when we turned in for the night, we breathed dust and dander from the comforters and developed stuffy noses and more coughing. I had difficulty breathing and sleeping during the nights.

The property was lovely with amazing views. Had everything we needed for a holiday stay.
