Perfect place to relax.
We loved every inch of Sweetwater Cottage. The neighborhood amenities are very nice and easy to access. Bullfrogs sang us to sleep. Spotless and comfortable! Super quiet neighborhood. Nothing is closer than Oriental, so plan your trip accordingly. We ate at Brantley’s, Barcos, and Toucan Bar and Grill. All were good. We took the ferry from Minnesott Beach and spent a day in Morehead/Beaufort-great day trip. We left relaxed and rested. Highly recommend. My only criticism of the trip? It’s been so long since I lived down east, I forgot what sweet tea tastes like when made with sulfur water …

The bunkie is super cute and the furnishings are well suited. However, The room, bedding and linens all smelled like artificial fragrance. It was like walking into Ulta and being consumed by scent. There was a thick layer of dust on the air intake and black handprints on the attic access door. my husband said there was black stuff growing in the ice machine.

16 Backcove Circle was the perfect place for a quiet getaway! The bunkie was the absolute cutest -- inside and out. The shiplap, hardwood floors, reading nook with built-in bookcase made all of my Joanna Gaines dreams come true. I stayed in the winter, so it was quiet, which is what I was looking for, but I'm sure the community atmosphere would be amazing during the summer -- I'll have to come back! I wish it had been warmer so I could have taken advantage of the available bikes. The overall community is so picturesque to drive through or run through (it's the perfect place for your daily workout)!

Short getaway
Very cute little cottage, comfortable bed and nice Bathroom. Little deceiving in that you don’t have a water view. We couldn’t get into the carriage to use bikes but they were available at the provision store. No one else in the bunkers while we were there which was fine we were getting away for short break . Would be very nice if you had a boat, wouldn’t recommend if you’re looking for a lot of activities! The community is beautiful homes are replicas of old homes and the gas lamp posts throughout the community are so neat!
