Everything was even better than we imagined. The balcony with views over the river was exactly what we wanted and more! The house is well equipped, clean and spacious, could easily accommodate 6 very comfortably. We will be back for sure!
This house is amazing, and we were very comfortable during our stay. We enjoyed the quiet and the views, and we would stay here again the next time we are in the area.
We came in town for a wedding. Wonderful house. Loved the views.
If you want to get away for peace and quiet, this is your place to stay. It was easy to get in and get settled. The cottage was perfect for 4 adults. The bedrooms are really nice and are all on the first floor. The kitchen and living room are upstairs with a gorgeous view from the balcony. The furniture was the best at Cottage #3. That's mostly why I chose this cottage. Furniture was very comfortable. Kitchen was stocked with all things you need to cook. It was like a home away from home. We ate on the balcony while we were there. The fishing pier was right in front of this cottage, and we fished for hours! It was really fun. We wanted to go kyacking but we never saw any around or any paddles. They have a little beach area below the rocks where you can go walk and hang out. The town of Oriental is small, but they have some great restaurants and a Piggly Wiggly and it's only 10 minutes away which is very convenient. We grilled out one night on the grill. They do have a pool but never got a chance to use it. Overall, it was a very nice place, and we would go back again!
The property is amazing - very well equipped. We had everything we needed to stay in and enjoy the view and the area. Each of the rooms had multi-prong extension cords with USB ports - such a small but so important in today's device filled world. Plenty of pots/pans for you to cook. Right amount of seating with couches and dinning table. The location and views are remarkable and short drive to downtown Oriental and easy drive to New Bern.
You would never think that paradise is down this unpaved gravel road, but once you see the sign that says private road you are transported. The units are close together, but they have a shutter that provides privacy while you are enjoying the deck overlooking the Neuse River. Oriental is a cute town about 10 minutes away. The Silo is a great restaurant. You could also choose to head the other way to New Bern which is about 20 minutes from the unit. It's a hot tourist spot. Captain Ratty's was very good. There are some stores as well that you can wander through. Who knew that Pepsi was founded there as well. There is a very small museum as well as an old fashion soda shop that you grab a bite to eat. There were a few kayaks that we saw on the property but we weren't sure if they were up for grabs for everyone or only to specific units. We didn't see any paddles, so we couldn't use them. You can fish off the dock, so bring your pole. I did speak to the rental agency regarding the lack of pool chairs. We were a family of 5 and there were only 4 chairs, so not even enough for my family let alone for the other 7 units that are on the property. We truly enjoyed our time there and we will be back without a doubt.
The house was amazing! It was beautiful and had everything you need to enjoy a long stay! The water was comfortable and fun to fish in, the beach was nice to walk on and the pool was comfortable. We will stay again!
We loved everything about this property. The inside was like a model home. The only thing I would change is not having the plug-in deodorizers. I am highly sensitive to smells so I had to deal with headaches every day even though we unplug them immediately. I would definitely stay here again.
My husband, my daughter, and I and a friend had a most wonderful time. The cottage is so well appointed and so beautiful. If you are interested in cooking, you have a fully equipped kitchen with a really pots and pans. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms are clean and lovely and showers are great!! Being able to sit outside, either downstairs on very comfortable chaises or upstairs, looking at the beautiful view made our day! But if you want to be inside, the living room is also incredibly comfortable and you can still see the beautiful view. We would definitely return.
We had a great time during our stay. Only wished we had known that the pool was closed during the days we were there. Other than that, the house had everything we needed. We love the location and will stay again!
This was such a peaceful and enjoyable stay. The property was pristine and the views were gorgeous. I highly recommend this property to anyone who has plans to enjoy all that the Pamlico area and Oriental have to offer.
Property is just as advertised! The views are amazing! You won’t be disappointed with this property!
Simply awesome.
The property was great! It would be ideal for a family reunion. The only downside was the distance to everything, but that could just be me.
Loved every minute!
We had a wonderful vacation. The house was very clean, and anything I needed for meal prep was included in the kitchen. The view is beautiful as well with easy water access. We loved our relaxing week.
We truly enjoyed our stay. Beautiful view, the house was clean, and the atmosphere was homey.
Beautiful home! Beautiful property! Beautiful view!
