About this property

Beau Point: Dog-Friendly Waterfront w/dock "Where live oaks meet the sea…”

Beautiful private sound front property shaded by 100-year old live oak trees with a dock. Just one mile from The Boathouse Marina, public boat ramp, and two miles from the Beaufort docks...perfect distance for golf cart rides. This amazing tucked-away rental sports the most incredible sunrise in Carteret County as it rises over Harkers Island bridge. Life is slower here where the egrets fish in the marsh and dolphins play as the tide lazily rolls in. This 1800-sq-ft comfortable cottage has been recently renovated and boasts three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, full capacity laundry room, and spacious living and entertaining areas, including two outdoor decks for additional leisure. Plenty of space to park boat and trailer in yard. Male and female beach cruiser bicycles provided for meandering through town. Brand new dock that is 12-foot on the T. Catch crabs in the crab pot provided and fish off the dock. No swimming due to oyster rocks in the marsh and shallow water. Bring your kayaks for incredible adventures through the marsh. By boat, it's only 20 minutes to get to the Cape and 7 minutes to Wade Shore and Shackelford Banks. Gas up the boat around the corner at Boathouse marina. Linens included; smoking outdoors only. We charge a $150 non-refundable pet fee for one dog under 50 pounds. Copy and paste link into your browser for house instructions.

Our stay

The home appears to be clean and the owner was good with communication but there was an unpleasant pet odor in the TV room after we settled in later that evening. This might have not bothered some but we are very sensitive and have rented many many pet friendly homes. We decided to check out that morning and I did let the owner know the reason. She sent her property manager in and she took a video and said she did not smell anything. So that was our stay! A partial refund would have been fair in my opinion but owner rejected .

Perfect Coastal Getaway

We were supposed to be in Florida for New Year’s but travel conflicts changed our plans. After several cancelled flights we decided just to drive down to the NC coast and found this great hideaway. Description and pictures are all accurate and views are absolutely beautiful. Home is minutes from downtown Beaufort which was perfect for enjoying all of the wonderful restaurants and scenery. The property owner was extremely hospitable and prompt with our inquiries. We will absolutely consider staying here again.

Three of us guys have stayed here 2x to be near where we like to fish. Having the boat dock soo close to the house is very convenient. I highly recommend this spot to anyone who is looking to get on the water or wants to take in Beaufort, Atlantic Beach, etc. Great host as well. Jen is fantastic!!

Best view I’ve ever had and I have stayed in many places

The view was incredible. Only two issues that wasn’t really that big a deal. The front door was so swollen. You pretty much had to kick it to get in. There had been a lot of rain though. The Sulphur smell in the water was very strong. Expect some sulfur smell being at the beach, but this was the strongest . Like I said minor things I look forward to staying again. And hopefully will see you next October Thank you very much for letting us stay

Perfect family getaway

Our family loved this property. The live oaks, view of the water, and the dock -where our 2 eight years old spent hours fishing, checking their crab pots, and working on using their cast nets- were perfection. The house was great and had all the necessities. The owners were a pleasure to work with. We hope to visit again soon.

Relaxing and Excellent Location

House was very short drive to Wildlife ramp, which was perfect for us. And the home had excellent view of the water and was very spacious, clean, and beachy. The ONLY complaint is we hope they can install a door of some type between bathroom and bedroom- other than that it was PERFECT!!

Great location & beautiful view

This house has such beautiful views! It is conveniently located so that Front Street in Beaufort, Morehead City and Atlantic Beach are just a short drive. The neighborhood was very quiet. There was plenty of room for our family and it was nice to have our dog on vacation with us. Hostess was easy to communicate with.

The location was on the water and the dock and setting made the place. Great place for morning coffee and afternoon beverages. The bathroom setup made it hard to share with a bigger group. The bathroom sink needs to be fixed so water can drain without prying a knife in. The front steps are out of code with the top step off by 1 and one half inches. You should fix before someone gets hurt.

Peaceful Neighborhood

If you love beautiful sunrises, watching the dolphins in the sound and a quiet neighborhood then this is the rental for you. The kids loved riding the bikes. We rented a golf cart and as it was just a short drive to town, we took it everywhere. The home was very clean and spacious. The kitchen did lack some amenities like a single serve coffee maker, but the drip coffee maker worked fine. We enjoyed sitting on the dock drinking our morning coffee and fishing. The host was very responsive to my texts.

Beautiful, peaceful escape.

If you want peace and quiet that is close to Beaufort, this is the place for you. We rented a golf cart which was fun. This area is a gem because it is “old Beaufort” in that it seems to be folks whose families have lived and grown up here, so definitely be respectful of that. The huge Live Oaks are gorgeous and having them as company on the back deck for morning coffee and evening wine was fantastic. We loved being able to leave our boat at the dock and were blessed to have great weather - went out to Shackelford Banks and saw some ponies and out to Cape Lookout. The house is clean and spacious and the bedrooms are at one end of the house so if there are late nighters or early birds, no one is disturbed. Beds are very comfortable, washer and dryer was appreciated, the kitchen was sufficiently supplied, although a second medium sized pan would have been welcome. My only suggestion would be to have some starter bath soap in the bathrooms. We will definitely be back!!

Wonderful place to stay

We loved staying at The Black Cat. We will definitely rent again. Check in was super easy, Jen gave us the code to the house and we just walked right in. I have been coming down to Beaufort for years and love how quiet and peaceful this property is. If you don’t want to stay downtown Beaufort this is the best house on the island in my opinion. The 2 porches and the dock are the best places to hang out. If you have a boat there is a dock to come and go from also. We had no complaints about this property and will definitely be back. Thanks again Jen!

Fantastic stay and the best boat dock!

We had a wonderful stay. My wife and I had a king bedroom and her parents did as well. Our son took the room with two beds. There was plenty of room for all of us and there was even a day bed in another room we didn't need. The kitchen is large and open to the main dining area, plus another TV room with nice leather couches and an amazing view of the water and live oaks. Of course, the boating in this area is one of the main attractions, so having our own boat dock available was so nice. We put the boat in on day one and never had to take it out until the end of our stay. The dock also has some amazing sunrise views. The location is very convenient to the public boat dock and downtown Beaufort. Great spot for sure!

Nice place - especially if you bring your boat

Beaufort is a beautiful little town. House was very nice and served our family well. Pretty much everything we needed was there. I have a home nearby but can’t use it yet so I wanted a place nearby that I could have easy access to my boat. Very close to the free boat ramp and the Boathouse Marina. Took about 15 minutes to get to Wade Shore on Shackleford Banks to anchor off the shore. Best place to be on a nice day! Fished off the dock at night. Would be a great spot for kids to shine a light in the water at night to observe the shrimp, fish, crabs. Nice views from the back room or porch overlooking the North River, Harkers Island.

About the host

Hosted by Jen

We lived in Beaufort for seven years and developed strong ties to the area and her people. It was our dream to someday own land where the grass meets the water and 23 years later here we are. It truly is a slice of heaven. Welcome to our happy place!

Why they chose this property

We were married at the end of Lennoxville Point in 2003. We believe Lennoxville Point and its surrounding area to be the prettiest and best location in Beaufort!
