Winter GetwY & Adventures!

We loved our stay, everything you could want, a beautiful home with plenty of room. Furnished with everything you could possibly need. The view was amazing, enjoyed every gorgeous sunset. We took our kayaks and enjoyed them so much. We would go right out back and enjoy the marshes across the way, and took them to Beaufort and went across the river and hiked the trails to find wild horses and the beautiful beach. Thank you for sharing your home. Steve & Val

Wonderful stay!!

I rented this property for a stay to attend my granddaughter’s wedding! We had 4 generations under one roof. The home is beautiful, spacious, and had three bathrooms (which came in real handy with all us girls.) Spectrum was very responsive when I couldn’t get the lockbox open. Someone arrived within 10 minutes to help. Superior service!

Relaxing retreat house but could have been cleaner

This was a great place to relax and recharge. It fit our family and it was a peaceful space. When we arrived we noticed that the house could have been cleaned more thoroughly and during our stay we saw a few cans and paper plates scattered in the bush area around the side of the house. Though, those experiences did not significantly impact our enjoyment of the house. What did have an impact was that most of the waterfront area is gated off by the neighbor and only a very small grassy part of the waterfront was accessible. Based on the pictures, we had expected to have more space on the beach area behind the house to enjoy. On the brighter side, when we had challenges with the internet and the grill, the property managers were very helpful and even came to the house to help turn on the grill. All things considered, we had a good experience at this house.

Vacation at the River

We spent hours looking at properties to rent and decided on this one. The rental process was easy and the communications leading up to our arrival were concise and provided all of the info we needed. The home was clean and inviting. The natural light and the view out the back is amazing. The kitchen is well-stocked with everything needed for meal prep. Beds were comfortable. Our favorite part was being so close to the water. We could launch our kayaks from the little sandy beach at the edge of the backyard. Great place to paddle! It is close to Beaufort, Harkers Island and a quick ferry ride to Cape Lookout and a fantastic beach. We can’t wait to go back!

Beautiful and Tranquil - stunning views and sunsets!

The minute you open the door you have a clear straight view to the water in the back. The layout of the home is open and roomy. The kitchen is spacious and well stocked with pans and utensils. The decor is lovely. Privacy lattice on deck so you can enjoy your morning coffee in your PJs. Close to Beaufort and Morehead City. We have stayed here twice and love it. Very clean -housekeeping does a very thorough job.

Beautiful Home & Views

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The view was amazing and the property is beautiful. We only had a couple of issues: 1. No WI-FI for the first 2 days. 2. Fan with light in living room didn't work therefore we either had to have the really bright main lights on or leave it completely dark.

Spectacular View!

The view alone was worth every penny of reservation. The sunsets were amazing. When standing on the back porch, .you see water from left to right...as far as you can see and you're literally 10 steps to the waters edge. The kitchen and dining area were huge with plenty of room for a large family. Very remote quiet and peaceful location. Pizza delivery service was available from Harkers Island. Spectrum Properties were easy to work with on reservation. Overall stay and accommodations were excellent. The only negatives would be the upstairs carpet needs cleaning and there's only 1 TV in the living room area and 1 older tv in a nook area upstairs. No TV''s in the bedrooms. We did bring an extra TV from home for my boys to play video games but who needs TV's when you have such incredible views of the sound :). Overall great choice for a week or weekend get away

Beautiful View

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The views are absolutely gorgeous and the location for us was perfect. The back deck was nice to relax on. The living room and kitchen were very spacious with enough room for us all to spread out. The house was stocked with everything we needed for our stay. The only thing I wished had of been different was that there had been 3 bedrooms with queen beds instead of 2. There were 3 couples and only 2 queens beds. The other rooms had bunks and twin beds. Wasn’t a huge deal because we pushed the twins together to make a king but definitely would have been nice to not have to deal with that. Otherwise the house was perfect for us. Plenty of parking for our vehicles and boat. We will be renting again if available for our dates!
