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 striking 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 charmingly refreshed with wood floors and white walls for a fresh and inviting feel. Luxe, modern details like the beautiful 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 adore 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 appreciate the many delicious eateries, bars and cafes.
Life couldn't be more impressive when you happen to be in Beaufort!

Finding the best vacation rental experience:

When to go & When to reserve a rental home:

• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation homes are reserved early. Booking your rental property six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and book your vacation home.
• To get the best value, try changing your group's trip dates to the Spring or Fall shoulder seasons. May, September, and even October offer pleasant temperatures, , and greatly reduced traffic. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with loved ones at your favorite beach.
• Owners sometimes offer special rates for veterans. Remember to ask your host or property manager if discounts are available for your family.
• Property managers typically offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance. Trip insurance, which usually will cost between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Often, management companies supply New Bern area travel guide magazines that include money-saving deals, either offered directly by local companies, or by way of a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Planning, selecting, and booking the right New Bern rental home:

• Choose dates and budget.
• Note the number beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Green Turtle Cottage in Downtown Beaufort, NC has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally accessible on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, call the property management company before booking the vacation home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Some rental properties allow pets, but others don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask the property manager about pets before booking.
• If there's a particular New Bern beach you long to visit, look for rentals that are either close by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Proper accessibility can make or break a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental.

Additional considerations:

• Get the owner's phone number and entry/exit procedures for your rental. We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by locking and securing the home when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• At Check-in, document any issues with the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all correspondence in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can typically help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Re-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Please make sure to walk through the property a final time and keep an eye out for damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever possible. If the host is not available, ensure that you take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on excellent reviews to stimulate new reservations. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something went awry, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience find their best rental home. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
