Cozy Dog-Friendly Cottage in Heart of Beaufort

One of the few pet-friendly cottages in Beaufort! Come enjoy a comfortable one-bedroom cottage with a big yard 2 blocks from the waterfront. Set back from the road this cottage is unique in the heart of Beaufort. Ideal for a morning coffee on the porch and afternoon walk on the waterfront with your pup. Relax with a board-game or puzzle and enjoy dinner on the screened in side porch. Connect to WiFi to work remotely or disconnect and enjoy Beaufort. Check us out on insta @thesouthernsaltydog!

My approach with this space is to keep it comfortable and dog-friendly while celebrating our coastal town of Beaufort. For the pups this means dog beds throughout the cottage, a complimentary toy and treats upon arrival and baggies conveniently provided for keeping the yard clean! For our guest this means a great room blending a comfy couch, workspace and dining area lined with bookshelves stocked with puzzles, games, and all the gadgets to make a good martini (shaken not stirred). A beautiful screened in porch provides outdoor dining or relaxation space. The king size bed with its fleece lined comforter and (many) pillows creates a space for a peaceful nights sleep.

I can accommodate up to four guests if needed with an air mattress upon request. I can also provide two large kennels if needed for an extra $25 charge if needed. Note that at this time the yard is not fenced in as I am waiting on a contractor with availability and any pups need to be under voice or leash control at all times when outside for their and our neighbors safety.

Guest access to the home is provided by a long grass drive way leads to the gravel parking spots by the potting shed. The restaurants, museums and state park ferries are three blocks away on Front street. Morehead City is a ten minute drive across the bridge.

We do have a working fire place in the cottage but instructions for use are provided upon request and the guest accepts all liability for damage to the house if used incorrectly.

Beautifully Decorated Cottage

The conveniently located cottage was beautifully decorated, private, and clean inside. We were a bit disappointed that the outside needed some attention. However, we and our pup enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful Pet Friendly Property

We were looking for a short getaway with our pup, and this home was just what we needed. From the fenced-in yard to all the pup-friendly amenities, it was perfect. This house is clean and well-maintained. The garden is magnificent. I could sit in the rocking chair on the porch all day and smell the magnolias.We will likely return!

Great Rental

We were very happy with our stay. The house had all we needed, and enough space for 2 people and a big dog. We especially enjoyed the screened in porch. The garden is lush and conveniently fenced in. Quiet neighborhood and a short walk from the water and Front Street with restaurants and shops. Beaufort is a great town to visit. We visited Carrot Island and saw wild horses. Highly recommend this rental.

Quiet and Cozy Pet Friendly Home

Well maintained property. Owners were attentive to our needs and provided lots of goodies for dogs. Our pups loved the fenced in yard to explore in. Location is awesome, only two blocks to the waterfront, shops and restaurants. Would definitely stay here again if we venture to Beaufort in the future.

Great Place for Families w/ Kids and Dogs

We had a fantastic stay. All of the amenities you could possibly need were available. This rental was perfect for our dogs. We never travel with our pets because it is so difficult to find any place that is pet friendly and doesn’t cost a fortune. The home was absolutely beautiful and the pull out worked great for our toddler. We will definitely be staying here again if we are in the area in the future.

Great pet friendly rental

We were very pleased with this rental! We've stayed at other pet friendly rentals that weren't as accommodating as this house was. Our dogs loved the fenced in yard so they could run around. We could tell they were relaxed and happy! The house was clean and very convenient to walk to Front Street.

Lovely house

This is an amazing property, tucked in behind some houses, so not directly visible to the road. The house was very clean, well decorated, and was very comfortable overall. If I can return soon, I will. Highly recommend!

Perfect Long Weekend Getaway!

Such close proximity to downtown Beaufort's shops and restaurants. Enjoyed the 10-minute walk to Cru every morning for coffee but didn't have to as the kitchen was so equipped with everything you needed from all the spices to coffee and popcorn. This was the most pet-friendly house we have ever stayed. Fully stocked with cookies, crates, toys, and poop bags. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again.

Quaint and Cozy

My husband and I brought our 3 dogs with us for a much needed relaxing long weekend. We were pleasantly surprised by the accommodations for us and them. Sarah had treats, beds extra poop bags waiting. We thoroughly enjoyed the porch and the dogs enjoyed the fenced yard. Very quiet and peaceful.

Perfect bungalow in a perfect location!

My husband and I stayed here with our dog for five days, and couldn't be happier with our choice. Location is great- a leisurely 10 minute walk to Cru for coffee or the waterfront for dinner/shopping, and far enough away from the 'main drag' for it to be peaceful when we wanted it. My husband was able to work during day over zoom, and the internet worked perfectly the entire time. Sarah's a great host- responsive, personable, and knowledgeable. A+, would stay here again in a heartbeat!!

Very well appointed cottage

We spent Thanksgiving at this beautiful cottage with our 2 border collies. We loved the fenced in yard and the proximity to shops and restaurants. The gardens are beautiful although somewhat overgrown. There was a slight problem with the refrigerator door staying closed. That being said, we absolutely loved the property and the town. We will definitely book this cottage again!

Dog friendly Beaufort house.

The house was spotlessly clean and very dog friendly as advertised. The fenced front yard was great. It was an easy walk to the center of Beaufort for restaurants and shops. My only complaint was we were initially given the wrong the wrong WiFi code. We could not use the internet or watch tv. I texted the host but got no reply. By accident I discovered the current WiFi at the desk. Also the house was a little chilly in the morning - especially the bathroom. We could not control the heating.

House is Absolutely Amazing! For me and my dog!

This house is amazing. Beautiful and plenty of room for a 1 BR. The fenced in front yard is full of wonderful plants and flowers. It is fenced in and my dog loved it. We both especially loved the screened porch. Every afternoon or evening was spent there winding down! Everything is clean, well decorated, functional. The hostess was so nice to return our messages. I go to Beaufort every year and will be staying here from now on. It’s a bit of a walk to town, but not bad at all. Very dog friendly! Wood floors and plenty of dog beds.
