Gull Cottage in Historic Beaufort-by-the-Sea
About this cottage rental
Nestled in Beaufort, this charming cottage for $190 per night is a great option for your next break. Cute cottage on Moore Street in the Historic District of Beaufort located directly across the street from Homer Smith Docks and Marina. Such a quiet and charming location for you to relax. View Town Creek and Newport River from the front porch. Walk 3 1/2 blocks to Front Street and view the ponies on Taylor's Creek. Everything Beaufort has to offer in the Historic and Restaurant District is within short walking distances. There are several businesses that rent kayaks close by. There are also inexpensive ferry boat rides to Cape Lookout and Bird Shoals. Finally, I am a USCG licensed Captain, and am certified to take paying passengers on charters on my boat(s). However, I highly recommend the inexpensive ferry boat rides that depart from downtown Beaufort, unless you have a specific reason in mind… The cottage has new paint and carpet throughout, with plenty of brand-new beds and furniture. On the other hand, it's quite quaint with some beautiful antique furniture, artwork by true local artists, Core Banks seashells scattered throughout, and if you look closely enough you will smile if you notice a few of the front rooms that aren't as perfectly square as they were intended to be. In addition to the three bedrooms and two baths, you'll find a nice large living room with two couches with cable TV and Internet. Cook in the kitchen if you like, you'll find everything you need. There's also a back porch for grilling and your own back yard with a small fire-pit with plenty of oak to burn. There is plenty of parking.

The cottage was wonderful from the moment we stepped in. Great space, clean and well appointed. The location was perfect, just a few blocks from downtown Beaufort. Craig made sure we had a smooth stay and was very helpful with great suggestions on things to enjoy amd places to eat while we were here. We would definitely stay there again!

Craig is a wonderful host -friendly and great recommendations! Cottage is cute and clean! We had 4 adults and two infants and it was very spacious, we enjoyed sitting out front and being able to walk to Beaufort waterfront (half mile walk). House had everything we needed and Craig was very responsive. We can’t wait to stay here again.

If you want a comfortable, clean place to relax and call home while spending time at the beach or marina, this spot certainly is one to consider. Easy parking, all around quiet neighborhood and great location. The host was very helpful and quick with any questions about the area.

Our 3 day stay at Gull Cottage was just what we were hoping. It was in a quiet area and was very clean and comfortable. The distance to the waterfront for dining or to catch the ferry is very walkable. Check in and check out was easy and our host was very welcoming and provided a lot of helpful information. We will definitely stay here again when we return to the area.

We really enjoyed our stay. It was perfect for our long weekend getaway. Was a short walk to museums, restaurants, and sight seeing. Central to many things to do in the surrounding area. Craig was very kind, and even shared some local fare with us!

We had a great time. The cottage was exactly as it looked online. It's across from the marina area, and a few blocks walk through lovely neighborhoods to the "downtown" with shops and restaurants and more waterfront. Craig was very helpful and our arrival was easy. We'd stay here again.

Craig is an amazing host we enjoyed our stay so much! I had to leave so early I forgot to sign the guest book & say thank you!
The cottage was larger than I expected and had everything we needed. I didn’t notice if the was a hair dryer in the other bathroom but I brought my own. I was using the guest bathroom & there were big bottles of shampoo & soap if you need.
The kitchen was pretty well stocked and we did use the BBQ. Craig left a bag of fresh shrimp in the freezer that were awesome BBQ’d. We also bought some fresh smoked fish from him you must try!
Beds were well dressed , clean and comfortable there were plenty of towels, even a couple beach towels in the cabinet in the hall. Laundry room has a full washer & dryer and a hanging rack. Wifi code is in the book.
We had a bunch of local family pop over to check the place out, we had a lot of visitors after a funeral and we had plenty of room for everyone. Plenty of parking right out front.
Check in in simple code lock easy enough. It’s a short walk to front street in a quiet area. Enjoyed the Waterbug tour CA John was awesome!
The cottage is just as it looks I’d love to rent it again if I’m ever back in Beaufort.

The house was small but perfect for us. We were sad the bunk beds weren’t there, just because the kids were excited about them. However, there were two twin beds in a room perfect for the kids. The cottage is a short walk to town through all the historic homes but still in a nice quiet corner near the water. It was quick and easy access to Atlantic Beach and everything you could want to do. A fantastic weekend stay and we cannot wait to return!

Everything was clean and very nice. The master bedroom mattress needs to be replaced. With 2 people in the bed you roll to the center of the mattress. The location was perfect.

3rd time staying!
This was our 3rd stay at the Gull Cottage! Obviously, we love it! :) it is perfect for our family of 4. The location is central to so much! We enjoy being able to walk downtown to the shops & restaurants. We especially love being so close to radio island. The owner, Craig, is super friendly. We will be back again and we cannot wait!

My wife and I originally rented this place to spend the weekend with our daughter and her husband. Unfortunately one of her female dogs had a litter of puppies so they couldn’t come so we invited a couple of our friends and we had a great weekend. Excellent little cottage close to everything and we absolutely loved it.

Great quiet get away!!
Gull Cottage was the perfect quiet hide away with close access to all Beaufort has to offer. The cottage has ample space and a great shady front porch. The pair of bikes available were great to take quick rides down to the waterfront. If you have a boat this place sits only a minute away from a good public ramp next Town Creek Marina. Can't wait to stay again!

We absolutely LOVED the Gull Cottage! It's clean and just the right size, and it has anything you could ever need.

He went way above and beyond the call of duty to make sure our stay was wonderful!
