About this property

Front St. Waterfront Cottage with Private Dock, Views, Walk to historic town

The only true waterfront rental house with water views from almost every room and a private dock, 10 steps from your door! Very relaxing and natural decor-everything blends in with the beautiful water that is just steps from your back door. When you enter the king size master suite, you will be overwhelmed by the view. It has its own bath and a large glass-walled view with access to a private deck. Enjoy watching dolphins, boats, sunrises and sunsets on the calm waters of Taylor Creek. The remodeled second master suite has a queen bed with full bath and water view. The kitchen has an open floor plan with a breakfast bar and a large pine dining table that seats 8 and allows everyone a view of the wild ponies and sailboats. The second story deck with spiral stair affords gorgeous views all the way to the Atlantic ocean and Shackleford Banks-a perfect sunset watching spot for cocktails! You can walk or bike to town every day or night for lunch and dinner in Beaufort's historic downtown where there is no shortage of restaurants and ice cream parlors. This is a kid-friendly town where streets are all flat and perfect for bicycling. Air filtration/ ionizer unit in living room to aid air quality and virus removal. NEW 38' FLOATING DOCK FOR 2022!
REMINDER- BRING YOUR OWN SHEETS AND TOWELS.

Great place and location!
Had a great time and did see the wild horses. We also were able to get the SpaceX launch on video which we weren’t expecting to see.

Birthday in Beaufort
Great long weekend in November. Beautiful weather until Saturday when rain started. House was great location and very nice. Great sunset views and dolphins on the creek. Great restaurants in town and close to house. Trip to Cape Lookout was a great fun day. Plenty of room in home and very quite. Easy to walk to town on sidewalks. We rented a golf cart to zip around downtown. House is easy to enjoy all one level. Overall a wonderful weekend. Owners were super kind and response quickly. No issues. Easy arrival and departure. Stan was wonderful to work with and made it great!! Would go and enjoy again.

Wonderful views and convenience
Family trip down to our beloved Beaufort. House was wonderful in layout, location, and amenities. Dock was in great shape and upper house deck views captured us every night. Would definitely go back.

About the host

Hosted by Stan Breakell

Host profile image
We fell in love with this town while dropping our oldest son off at Camp Seagull in 2001.
We have brought our 4 boys here since then and they have all grown up loving Beaufort as well. 5 of us got certified for scuba here at Discovery Dive and we tend to make every vacation a diving opportunity. We hope to retire here one day-we finally got our boys out of college!!! We know you will fall in love with Beaufort too!

Why they chose this property

Carrot Island is right across the creek and you can watch the ponies and dolphins from almost any window. Private dock in backyard that does not even require you to cross the street!. 1 level living. Large windows and open floor plan bring the views all the way into the house. Deep water dock for serious boaters and sailors.

What makes this property unique

You can see the water from the front door all the way through the house. When you walk up the spiral staircase to the second floor deck you know you are living large!
