About this property

Call My Bluff- Quaint Cottage Overlooking the Neuse River. Honeymoon perfect!!

  • Perched on a bluff overlooking the Neuse River, nestled among ancient oaks and pines –you'll discover the magic of CALL MY BLUFF cottage located next door to the Journey's End cottage. The shared 70' dock provides ample space for gathering over coffee in the mornings, sunsets in the evening, relaxing, fishing and enjoying the views of water foul along the river. Dolphin frequent the waters off of the dock. Conveniently located between Camps Seagull and Seafarer, the cottage is only 10 minutes away from Oriental, the sailing capitol of North Carolina. A free ferry ride across the Neuse and a short drive will take you to Beaufort, Morehead City, and the world-renowned beaches of the Crystal Coast. Historic New Bern is just up the river, and the tri-county area has an abundance of restaurants – from Mom'n'Pop shrimp burgers to 4-star International Cuisine. CALL MY BLUFF cottage features a painted white pine interior with one bedroom, a large open living space, and a stocked kitchen. A waterfront screened porch and deck with expansive river views and continuous breezes will be the perfect beginning to your CALL MY BLUFF cottage stay. Cottage accomodates five, and rents from Saturday to Saturday. Long-term renting available. Perfect for honeymooners!!

Great Getaway

We had a great time at this quaint cottage! The view is amazing! We enjoyed fishing and relaxing on the river, and visiting many of the nearby towns. Our host, Terry, was so welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed for our stay. We can’t wait to return to our new favorite spot!

Most of a week away!!

Loved relaxing and watching the river!!! We saw dolphins out back and other wildlife. Across the river we got to see the fighter jets coming and going. Rented a boat and spent the day on the river. A short drive to the ocean after an easy ferry ride. The cottage was lovely and perfect for two. The outside shower is a treat as are the kayaks. Great place and a great time!! Thank you and we hope to return🌞

Cutest cabin on the river

This was the cutest cabin right on the Neuse river. It's so cozy but can actually sleep a good amount of people with the loft. The bed was so comfy and plenty of extra blankets and bedding provided. The AC was cold and everything you need is right there. The porch is screened in and I loved spending hours on it watching the birds and occasional dolphins go by. Terry was so helpful with ferry info and what to do across the river. Can't recommend this place enough

A wonderful get away location!

Call My Bluff called my bluff😊😁😁in a great way!! My goal/need was to do nothing!! l just needed another week to continue my relaxing.. The quaint & pleasantly old beach feel of this rustic cabin is charming & felt like home. All you need to relax is there! I can’t say enough about Terry! There for every question & helpful at every corner. LOVE the dock & sunsets…….. the river fish weren’t interested in worms, but they were there teasing us!! A wonder and cool time to be introduced to the Neuse!! Day trips to historic NewBern & quaint Oriental were grand! I’ll be back!!!

One of the most relaxing places we've stayed! Sitting on the screen porch overlooking the river was lovely. Even in the hot afternoon, the breeze from the river was refreshing. Terry is an attentive and thoughtful host. The rustic cottage was charming and well equipped for our stay.
