This home is in a lovely community. It's quiet and relaxing, and the home is well-appointed. My husband is a kayak fisherman and launched his kayak from the nearby ramp, and he had quite a bit of good fishing while we were there.

Spent Lavor day weekend with family fishing and boating as the weather and wind permitted. Beautiful place, we love the Pamlico / Neuse River area. Caught a mess of fish including my wife's first Bull Drum. Spent the rest of the week with a group of friends. Could not have asked for a better week! Everyone loved the house. We will definitely be back!

My family and I had such a relaxing time. The scenery with all the nature is what we really enjoyed.The dock for fishing was so nice.I now want a screen porch on my house after enjoying the one one at this house.Very kind town!! Great job to the owners of “Cast Away” for making their home feel like a home away from home.Would live to visit again.
