Perfect vacation house for our family
Fourteen of us got together for Thanksgiving weekend. 12 stayed in the house consisting of boys age 7 and 8; 2 teen/adults, and the rest the parents. 2 live in Morehead with mobility issues so the house worked beautifully for them. VRBO hosts thought of everything, and our dogs (extra fees charged) really enjoyed romping in the back yard. The house is one block from the water and five blocks from downtown Beaufort, NC. The teens rode the furnished bikes and we walked into town so no parking hassles on a busy weekend. This house is not fancy, but utilitarian so we didn't constantly worry about the children making a mess. We mention the pet fee, but if you left your dogs at home, you'd be paying lots more in boarding or sitting fees. The hosts furnished plenty of soaps, paper products, and washing supplies to last our entire stay. They thought of everything down to aprons, and plenty of pots and pans and serving dishes for a big Thanksgiving meal for 14. Two years ago we stayed at Emerald Isle. While beautiful, it was isolated requiring driving to everything, and not a lot of fun for kids who want to explore. The weather cooperated, which always helps, but the house was so comfortable the family could just hang there if necessary. Neighborhood walkable with sidewalks in most places, and one could spend days touring the charming houses and yards. The house offered enough parking for lots of vehicles and no one had to park on the street. Neighbors welcoming.
