Cottage

Kolby's Kottage is one of the last over the water bungalows on the safe and protected Radio Island Causeway between Morehead City and Beaufort NC. Open the front door and you will be amazed at the spectacular view like no other. The best feature of this home is being directly over the water as the tide rises and falls. Standing on the dock, you can see the flag at Fort Macon, Carrot Island grazing horses and the Atlantic Ocean. This 1300 square-foot Cottage was constructed in the 1930s and refreshed in 2022. The bungalow has modern amenities, granite countertops and tile baths yet the integrity of the 1930s is ever present. Kolby's bungalow has the original wood floor, tongue and groove wood walls and a view that is indescribable! Sleeps 8, a unique set up of open areas (three queens, two single trundle beds) Park your boat on the floating dock and cruise to Beaufort inlet (1 mile) Beaufort waterfront or Morehead city waterfront....go fishing or kayaking from your dock… The options are limitless. Ideal for afternoon cruises and /or dining. Watch dolphins feed from the comfort of your living room. The enormous roomy dock is overlooking the western entrance of Taylor's Creek and provides a spectacular sunset every evening. Come and share this unique experience on the Crystal Coast.

My husband and I along with daughter Kolby have traveled extensively and have brought what we believe to be simple luxury. We all three welcome you to relax in Kolby's Kottage, an experience you won't forget.

Tips to get the perfect Beaufort rental experience:

Finding your perfect rental:

June, July, and August are the most expensive months along the coast of NC. Reserve your Beaufort, NC vacation in Fall or Spring to enjoy gorgeous weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Beaufort, NC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
Book your rental as soon as possible. Rental schedules often become available a year in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during Thanksgiving and Christmas get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
Veterans and Active Duty Military members may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
Management companies and individual rental owners typically offer customers an option to obtain trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
Often, rental management companies supply Beaufort, NC area visitor guides that include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Choosing and booking your prefectrental home:

Select dates and max budget.
Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. Cottage built over the water!! Newly renovated! has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts is generally accessible online. If you don't see them listed, contact the host before you reserve your home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds.
If there's a particular Beaufort, NC destination you love, browse homes that are either near by, or those that cater to your needs.
Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. .
If your family is bringing pets, you'll need to search for a property that allows animals. Make sure to ask for specifics on breed, weight, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts charge additional pet fees.

Some things to know before you go:

Get the host's contact number and check in/check out procedures for your rental property.
To ensure that damages aren't attributed to your family's visit, inspect for any problem areas upon your arrival. E-mail the rental manager immediately to relay any issues. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be helpful.
Ask questions. You may want instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or WIFI setup. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent lots of concerns.
Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific resource to find the best local beaches and restaurants.
Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
Keep the property locked while you're out! Don't let crooks spoil your family vacation.
Double-check the property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at departure. Check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
Go through the rental one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We advise walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, ensure that you take video of the rental to record its condition.
Did your group have a fantastic time? Most rental managers make it easy for vacationers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was defective and they failed to correct it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
