Nice house for a short weekend stay

Relaxing Stay

Great location with quick access to the island, restaurants and shopping. The home is an excellent size for a couple or small family. Melissa was quick to respond to emails and all pertinent details were provided. We had a relaxing stay…just what we needed.

Great location

Great little place in a good location. Pet friendly but be aware there isn’t a fence so you’ll have to bring a lead if your pup is curious. Tons of space and a great little kitchen

Great House!

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon and absolutely loved it! The host was very accommodating and the house was awesome. It is a short drive to downtown Morehead, Beaufort, and Atlantic Beach. While it was perfect for a honeymoon, there are also beds for children that make it a great house for families as well.

So perfect for us

If I were going to own a beach home, it would be this one! Very clean, well stocked, great location, small but quaint, room for our boat and trailer too. I can’t say enough great things about this home. It was perfect for our infant, 3 year old and two adults. We enjoyed the space thoroughly and felt right at home with all the amenities

Our stay

Was overall satisfied with our stay. The house had anything you needed which was appreciated, was clean, and the decor was very nice. It was located convenient to town. However, the neighborhood was very run down. The shower head could use a dip in vinegar and shower drain seemed clogged. The house smelled kind of musty. Minor fixes needed but enjoyed our stay.

Great Location & Good Vibes

We LOVED our stay!!! My husband, our 2 boys (18 & 11) & dog enjoyed Good Vibes. We know the area and the location. This is a GREAT location. Short distance to a great grocery store, shopping, beach, Beaufort, Aquarium, Fort Macon, etc. Clean & Comfortable. Awesome owners. Very responsive & went above & beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Thank you all so much for opening your home:-)
