Great view

The property isn’t near all the tourist trap areas, which is what I prefer. It’s a short drive to a beach, maybe 45 minutes to Morehead city. The view off from the deck is definitely worth the drive.

Weekend Getaway

We wanted someplace to go where we could rest and relax. This was perfect. We brought all our food because we didn't want to go out at all. The kitchen could use a few more items like baking dishes, tops that fit the pots, etc. Towel racks in the bathrooms would be a great addition as well. There were a few dust bunnies around, but overall it was very clean. Would definitely stay here again.

Comfortable stay in Stacy

The home is well appointed, and has almost anything you may need during your stay. The Open floor plan is nice for meals and resting after adventures on Core Sound. The living room is comfortable and the house has great internet for staying connected or streaming if you so choose. There was a lot of thought put into the guest book with information on nearby dining, ferries, and beach accesses. The property manager Kim and her son were both quick to respond to questions or issues, and quickly remedied schedule issues several weeks ahead of our stay as well as one problem at the beginning of our stay. The house borders a marshy area and the mosquitoes can be ferocious. I kid you not, one of them monsters drug a decent blue crab out of the canal kicking and screaming 😂. Please heed the warnings to bring bug spray for any stay on the NC sounds. They only really got bad two days of our 7 day stay, but that was plenty. The house location is a bit away from the action of Morehead City and Atlantic Beach, but still close enough for day trips to sight see or enjoy some activities. The small dock was nice and there are ample small blue crabs to see and catch if you want to drop a hand line or pot overnight. The only thing I’d like to mention is that there are 2 photos on the VRBO Listing that are not from this property. They are photo number 22 & 23 with the caption “Fishing off the dock” and “Views from the porch”. These two photos are from the yellow house Kim manages a little farther into Stacy. We enjoyed our stay and will keep Kim in mind next time we plan a stay in Carteret County. Thanks for a great vacation!

Great location, very relaxing

Great location, cute home to rent, spacious. On the online listing, I wish I would have known the pull out couch was in the loft for proper sleeping arrangements to be planned out. The home needed a deep clean as there was candy papers, dust and dirt under the beds and couches. Overall, great experience and nearly a full kitchen of dishes and cooking supplies. Due to location, I recommend to bring your own groceries or get them on your way in as there isn’t anything local within 25 mins

Nice place

Overall it was a nice property . Only concern we had was the amount of bird poop in the lower parking space. This could be a very big problem for someone with kids who would likely be down there running around when outside. They really need to address this problem.

Amazing property and host

First time getting a place like this. Normally I get hotels because I was afraid of the hassle and scammers. There was zero hassle very simple booking and checking in. When I needed anything the property manager replied immediately or called. Great location we were able to visit shackleford cape lookout and Emerald Isle from this location. Clean beautiful exactly as pictured. Everything was provided even things I wouldn’t even thought to bring. I decided to extend our stay and the host made it very easy to do so. We had 7 people 4 adults three kids there was plenty of space for everyone. We’re already planning another trip and will definitely be using this hosts properties for our next trip. Worth every single penny

Family fish & fun getaway

The property was clean and in a great location. We enjoyed the fishing near by and the beautiful sunsets from the porch. The ground level was a great place to store the fishing gear as well as clean the fish (you may want to carry your own fish cleaning table as we did.....there isn't one at the house.) The property is just as you see on the VRBO pictures.

Men’s fishing trip

Men’s fishing trip. This was a great spot to hang out with a group of guys for a flounder fishing trip. Great views from the back porch, convenient to several boat launches. Everything we needed for half a dozen guys to fellowship, fish, and just generally hang out and have a good time. Definitely would stay here again. We stayed last year in a similar house from the same folks,, it was great also.
