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 alluring 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 handsome 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 appreciate the many delicious eateries, bars and cafes.
Life couldn't be more handsome when you happen to be in Beaufort!

Tricks and tips for getting the best New Bern rental experience:

When to visit & When to book:

• Summer time is high season in Beaufort. Book your vacation in Spring or Fall to get the benefit of gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at the beach.
• In the New Bern area, The sooner your group can reserve a vacation home, the easier your search will be. The best rental properties are booked early. Booking your vacation property six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and book your rental home.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner whether your group qualifies for a price reduction.
• Property management companies often offer renters an option to buy trip insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Often, rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitor guide magazines which will include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship between the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find New Bern area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Planning and picking the best New Bern vacation home:

• Start by choosing your a vacation week and a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Green Turtle Cottage in Downtown Beaufort, NC has 2 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our New Bern vacation rental search.
• Precise information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally available online. If not, reach out to the property management company before reserving the rental. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
• Visiting for a single event or attraction? Use a map search to find nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental
• Do your family pets travel with you? Many vacation homes allow animals, but guidelines and restrictions apply. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Remember to ask the property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Pet fees or costs could be applied to your agreement.

Have a great stay:

• We recommend storing the manager's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas upon check in. Call the property manager right away to document any damages. If there is a dispute about legal responsibility later, having a record of problems and contact attempts will be valuable.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, A/V setup or kitchen appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent quite a few problems.
• Be a good neighbor. Often, adjacent homes are filled by permanent residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules is the right thing to do.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home when you are away, just like you would at home.
• Upon check-out, complete a walk-through to make sure you have not forget any personal items. Re-check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the rental a final time and keep an eye out for any damage. We recommend walking through with the host whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, remember to take photographs of the rental to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a excellent vacation? Most vacation rental websites make it easy for vacationers to provide feedback. If your property and/or host was fantastic, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
