Great spot near cedar island boat ramp.
My family and I returned to stay at this house as we were in town for the annual fishing tournament. It was clean and cool and situated fairly close to the public boat ramp we used. Property owner remained is close contact and when an issue arose with the house she took immediate action to resolve the problem. Another great trip down east!

Peaceful and remote
The home was as described, in a remote old fishing town and very quiet. It was nice for an older home and very clean. If you are looking for a peaceful place away from the crouds, this is that place. It's about 45 to 50 minutes to Morehead City and Atlantic Beach.

Quite and serene with water view
Overall was well worth the cost and enjoyed our stay. Had a minor hiccup with the check in, but Penny resolved it in literally less than 10 minutes from our call to her (at a late hour no less). A must go to is taking the ferry (about 15 minute drive) to Ocracoke Island for the day. Since it is in a quiet location, there wasn't a lot of choices to eat out (sit down location) nearby but Penny let us know upfront about that. There is a little Take Out cafe about a 2 minute walk from the house which had good food at a very reasonable price for a quick lunch or snack. Only issue we had was the tap water so should plan to bring your own.

Wonderful house, everything you'd want and more.
If you're looking hoidy toidy, this isn't it. If you're looking basic value and local charm, it is. To fully appreciate it, you need to bring a boat.
