The town of Beaufort-by-the-Sea has been a favorite for centuries. From long-ago sailors who dropped anchor in Beaufort Inlet after a wearying voyage, to tourists from near and far who long to experience the modest-town vibe of this southern town, to Blackbeard himself, who famously hung out in these parts after pillaging and treasure seeking on the open sea.
This pretty home on Live Oak Street, Green Turtle Cottage, is in keeping with the overall appeal of historic Beaufort, which is made up of period homes, white picket fences, and old live oaks. The home itself has vintage appeal from the get-go with a welcoming front porch ideal for sipping coffee in the mornings. The interior is attractively refreshed with wood floors and white walls for a fresh and inviting feel. Luxe, modern details like the striking black-and-white, bespoke tile in the bathrooms and diagonal checkerboard slate in the kitchen are both classic and crisp. Unwind in the evening on the brand-new back deck, complete with a charcoal grille and outdoor dining table with seating for six. So much sunlight, warm natural textured touches and the homey vibe round out the comfort of this ideal little place where you will appreciate to be.
When you’re ready to venture out, the French bakery, Les Ciseaux, is only three blocks away, where croissants and baguettes are baked fresh daily. The Olde Beaufort Farmer’s Market is just beyond and is a favorite for locals and more.
The center of downtown is Front Street only mins. from the front door. Stroll along Taylor’s Creek, and watch for ferry boats, dolphins, and wild horses across the waterway, visit downtown's stores and art galleries, and savor the many delicious eateries, bars and cafes.
Life couldn’t be more handsome when you happen to be in Beaufort!

Strategies to get the very best vacation property experience:

Finding the best rental value:

• Summer months are the most expensive season along the coast of NC. To book the largest rental within your budget, we recommend reserving in Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rental rates, greater selection, warm weather and the absence of large crowds at local restaurants, tours, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• The sooner you can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best rental homes are reserved very early. Booking your rental up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Property management companies sometimes offer discounts for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family.
• Management companies and individual rental owners often offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally will cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Many management companies supply Morehead City area visitor guides which often include coupons, either offered independently by local companies, or by way of a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Morehead City area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning and choosing your prefect Morehead City vacation home:

• First, have your group agree to trip dates and a spending budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration you need. Green Turtle Cottage in Downtown Beaufort, NC has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible on booking websites. If not, email the property manager before you reserve the property. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which usually includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to establish what configuration is optimal for your group.
• Are you visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
• If your family is vacationing with pets, you'll need to find a pet-friendly vacation rental. Request details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, hosts charge additional pet fees.

Advice for your stay:

• Take a copy of the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property. We recommend storing the host's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To make certain that damages aren't linked to your stay, note any problem areas during arrival. Get in touch with the property manager immediately to record your findings. If there is a dispute, having a record of concerns and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Hosts are there to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Be respectful of your neighbors. Often, adjacent homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night out, or the best spots for fishing?
• Keep your rental home locked while you are gone! Don't let crooks spoil your family vacation.
• When it's time to leave, take a final walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and look for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host is not available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did you have a great time? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or property management company was wonderful, they would love to hear about it. If anything was amiss and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
