Beautiful Historical house in heart of Morehead City
Recent Renovations! First floor hardwood floors replaced! This 120 year old house in the heart of Morehead City, NC is full of charm and very family friendly. The wrap around porch is wonderful for the mild winters and beautiful summers. This house sleeps 12 guests and is ideal for wedding and fishing parties. House features 1 king bed in downstairs Master, 2 queens, 2 sets of twin bunk beds, and a day bed with trundle upstairs. Upstairs bathroom is newly renovated, whole house has been newly painted, and all furnishings are brand new. Kids can enjoy a "playroom" upstairs equipped with games, smart TV and the day bed with trundle. The wrap around porch features a dining table for 4 and the kitchen seats 4 at the bar counter. A short walk to restaurants such as Promise Land Market (3 minutes), Full Circle (5 minutes), Jacks on the Waterfront (7 minutes) and shopping. A 6 minute drive to City Kitchen just over the Beaufort bridge offers beautiful views. The house is also a short 6 minute drive to kayak launch at Conch Point. Our house is ideal for a coastal getaway with friends and/or family. Public beach access is a short walk at Bogue Sound and also available at Atlantic Beach, a 10 minute drive away. Beautiful historic Beaufort is a short 8 minute drive. So much to do for all! Dont forget about the aquarium and laser tag in Atlantic Beach.

Did the job
It's an old house and is not level, like the whole foundation has made the house unlevel on the inside. Doors don't shut correctly. It was plenty big and close enough to many bars and restaurants. Some things need updating. Main shower for example. Again, it did the job and we had a great family trip.
The home is a historical home with lots of character. It is in a great location, a very short walk to all of the restaurants and downtown. We absolutely loved it.
Quaint and roomy, this historic house has a cool lean, sticking doors, an awesome porch and tons of room. A quick 5-10 minute walk to many food and beverage options, this place was perfect for a 2 day business trip
This house is in a great location to downtown MHC and it was so nice to be able to walk to and from the waterfront. The house was very clean, great condition, and plenty of room for all our friends and family! Thank you!
This is our second time renting this house! We love the location and convenience to downtown MHC and the waterfront. Everything is within walking distance. This house has a lot of character and is very comfortable for larger groups! We will definitely be coming back!
Management work with on adjusting date of trip in a very fast responses , Had a good time staying at your rental, everything went as planned but the fishing. Would book again with you

Home is not kept up, stained carpets, and an actual tree branch growing in the bedroom!
The house is charming from a photo but needs some needed updates to the moldy bathrooms, kitchen, and “game room”. I am familiar with houses of this age but this is one that lacks attention starting with the overgrown landscaping and dirty pitches.
The floors are not study you walk in some of the rooms and you can fall through.More utensils can be added in the kitchen, some of the bedroom drawers had stuff in them
My daughter, grandsons, and I enjoyed our weekend stay in this lovely home. My seventeen year old grandson told me this home is a favorite among the places we’ve stayed. At times we could not even coax my youngest grandson (age 12) out of the house. He felt it was his personal playground—bunk beds, swinging seat in the large playroom, putter ball! My daughter loved the character, and I took a ride down memory lane! The location put us close to Beaufort, Fort Macon, and iconic places like EL’s Drive-in, Sanitary Fish Market, and Oceana Pier! Our thanks to the graciousness of our wonderful hosts, the Poole Family, for sharing their lovely home with us as we honored the memory of my husband and created new memories!!
