We had a wonderful weekend. The home was lovely, clean, quiet. Amenities were good. Kitchen was large and easy to navigate. The bed was comfortable. Very nice bathroom. Loved the screened in porch with rocking chairs to enjoy our morning coffee. Close to shopping, tavern, wine bar/ bakery - these destinations were walkable and lovely to visit. We look forward to visiting again!

Easy stay in great location

Stayed here for one night before camp drop off, plenty of room and super convenient to the town of Oriental. Didn’t get to enjoy much of the stuff around because it was a short day, but the bikes would’ve been loved by all. Hot water, cute house, great location- would gladly stay here again.

Great location in lovely costal town

The house overall was perfect for our family. Everyone had their own bedrooms, with the kids upstairs giving us all some room. The dogs loved the great big back yard. The location was perfect, so close to town, it was easy and fun to bike to the park and coffee shop daily. We hit the foods trucks across the street at the brew pub for easy meals. Overall it was a terrific stay, we love Oriental and hope to stay at this property again.

Perfect getaway!

We had the best time during our stay in oriental. The house was clean and had everything we needed. It was very cozy and plenty of space for our family (4 adults 4 kids). The “secret closet with kids toys really made this place magical for our kiddos and was a lovely surprise. We especially enjoyed the screened in porch, option to ride bikes and the proximity to the waterfront and coffee shop. We hope to return!

Perfect Getaway with Charm, Comfort, and a Great Yard for Dogs!

We had a wonderful 3-day stay at this charming 1930s home in Oriental, NC. The house was clean, cozy, and well maintained—perfect for a relaxing getaway. We especially loved the screened-in patio where we enjoyed morning coffee, the super comfortable bed, and the beautiful, spacious yard. The fenced-in area was a huge plus for our dogs, who had just as much fun as we did! Communication with Ashley was smooth and easy, and check-in was a breeze. We’d absolutely stay here again!

Comedy of errors first day

….. but owners were awesome! First I couldn’t understand the lock box, and of course, right after calling, I figured it out, sooooo, sorry for the numb brain call, second, we wanted to watch Game 7 Stanley Cup, couldn’t figure out the Roku stuff, we don’t have Roku, unfamiliar territory, but they walked us through it in a huge laughter event. After that, our stay was still awesome, no hitches no glitches. Neighbors were nice, town was friendly, views on river spectacular. Town was as special place for my girlfriend, grew up there family vacations since a child. I’m glad I made the call. Thanks folks Kevin and Susan

The most relaxing place ever

From the moment we pulled in the driveway we could tell that this was going to be a great place. The porch to sit on, screened in porch to relax on, peaceful location, great yard - it was incredible. It is close enough to everything to be convenient but in a quiet neighborhood. This is my new favorite place. We slept great, the pups slept great after playing in the backyard and we could walk to the marina. This was a little slice of heaven.
