Another Great Stay
This is the third year we have stayed in this property and we have it booked for next year. It is clean and well stocked with everything we need. The full moon over the sound is incredible.

The house was a great location, stocked with what we needed, and easy to clean up at checkout. I had a question upon arrival and it was quickly answered.

Weekend Getaway
We wanted someplace to go where we could rest and relax. This was perfect. We brought all our food because we didn't want to go out at all. The kitchen could use a few more items like baking dishes, tops that fit the pots, etc. Towel racks in the bathrooms would be a great addition as well. There were a few dust bunnies around, but overall it was very clean. Would definitely stay here again.

Comfortable stay in Stacy
The home is well appointed, and has almost anything you may need during your stay. The Open floor plan is nice for meals and resting after adventures on Core Sound. The living room is comfortable and the house has great internet for staying connected or streaming if you so choose. There was a lot of thought put into the guest book with information on nearby dining, ferries, and beach accesses. The property manager Kim and her son were both quick to respond to questions or issues, and quickly remedied schedule issues several weeks ahead of our stay as well as one problem at the beginning of our stay. The house borders a marshy area and the mosquitoes can be ferocious. I kid you not, one of them monsters drug a decent blue crab out of the canal kicking and screaming 😂. Please heed the warnings to bring bug spray for any stay on the NC sounds. They only really got bad two days of our 7 day stay, but that was plenty. The house location is a bit away from the action of Morehead City and Atlantic Beach, but still close enough for day trips to sight see or enjoy some activities. The small dock was nice and there are ample small blue crabs to see and catch if you want to drop a hand line or pot overnight. The only thing I’d like to mention is that there are 2 photos on the VRBO Listing that are not from this property. They are photo number 22 & 23 with the caption “Fishing off the dock” and “Views from the porch”. These two photos are from the yellow house Kim manages a little farther into Stacy. We enjoyed our stay and will keep Kim in mind next time we plan a stay in Carteret County. Thanks for a great vacation!
