My favorite vacation rental
We've stayed in a few rentals. This one tops the list. It is not run by property management, and the owners live nearby. The owners added several extras not found in other rentals such as many condiments and a bowl of packaged snacks. Pet friendly. Outdoor area to enjoy with the dogs. Location is great. It's close to a coffee shop. The town is super cute. A short drive to the ferry. Plenty of activities.

Amazing Host
My wife and I had a wonderful stay here at Anchors Away! Sue was amazing host. She stopped by to ensure our check in process went well and to see if there was anything she could do for us. They even brought us a healthy amount of steamed shrimp from their market! It was delicious too!! The house is a very short 6 minute walk to the waterfront where all the stores and restaurants are which is great. We will definitely put this house on our first look any time we come back to Beaufort.

Perfect location and attentive hosts!
The location of this house makes it perfect for walks to Front Street with our dogs, going out to dinner and anything else you may want to do in “downtown” Beaufort. It is extremely well stocked and if you are missing anything the hosts are willing to help in every way. Highly recommend their fresh seafood business - Darden’s Seafood- even if you aren’t staying in the house. Great place to unwind and relax with family.

Gorgeous Historic home in Beaufort
This house impressed. Immaculately clean, very well equipped and well located. The owners were friendly, even dropped in to say hi and leave a basket of the freshest shrimp and oysters from their seafood business. Those Salty Dog's sure tasted great, Darden's!

Amazing Week!
Wonderful location to the water front. House was clean and accommodating. Seeing the original key to the house added to the houses nostalgia. Great location to visit Shackleford Banks and Cape Lookout. The owners were out of town during our visit but still made sure we enjoyed some shrimp. Shout out to Dace for helping with our questions and his food recommendations while his parents were out of town. Hope to return next year.

We walked to Front St every night. The neighborhood seemed very safe. The house was exactly as advertised. It was perfect for us! The house was very well stocked and very secure for our doggos. I would be interested in returning in the future if we ever marks it back that way!
