10 yr anniversary retreat
We so enjoyed the quiet, quaint towns in and around Swansboro. The views from this home are gorgeous and so peaceful. Adorable home on the waterfront with a short walk to the cute town shops and restaurants. There’s a fantastic coffee/ice cream shop overlooking the water with several waterfront restaurants just blocks from this home. Lovely stay! MaryAnn was wonderful and so kind!

What a great location!
We loved our time in Swansboro. Mary Ann was so helpful and easy to get ahold of. Within walking distance of old downtown, with plenty of restaurants and live music to choose from. The view across from the house is absolutely amazing. Coffee on her dock, watching the dolphins swim by as the sun came up was an awesome experience. Highly recommend this spot!
