Great trip!

A very nice home with two bedrooms on the top floor and a kids room on the bottom floor. Nicely kept. Great feel. With 5 adults we did run out of hot water. Oops. Elevator was a nice surprise. Easy walk to the restaurants in the evening. Close drive to Fort Macon and Beaufort for the ferry. Nice quiet neighborhood.

Renter

The beds need new mattresses. The king size bed was very firm and worn. The queen bed was very firm. Did not use the bunk beds. The couch cushions had stains on them as well as the recliner. The recliner shows signs of wear. We couldn’t get the code to work in the front door so we used the key. Other than that the home was fabulous, next door neighbors dog barks very early in the morning. Wished the park next door would have been mowed. Would stay again but additional fees charged by Vacasa are ridiculous. Other companies do not charge the extra fees. I’ve had this happen once before with Vacasa. Will not rent any property affiliated with Vacasa because of the additional fees charged by them.

Short Visit

We were in Morehead City to visit with my daughter’s fiancée. The house was as described and clean. The bed in the master had not been made, but the sheets and comforter were there and clean. We had a little difficulty with the number pad to get in, but in the long run it worked and was fine. Overall it was a good visit and nice place for our stay.

Seafood not Turkey

Biking and kayaking are great options. Kayaks were larger than expected so we could not use:( Views were fantastic. Freshest seafood on the grill cannot be beat! Elevator is very convenient. Decor gave a very nice ambiance to the entire house.
