Crystal Coast Log Cabin Retreat

My 70 year old father had battled cancer for several years. He was told in late June 2011 that there was no other treatments available for him. His desire was to return to Croatan National Forest which was a favorite family vacation site that we went to over 30 years ago. We immediately began the search for the perfect vacation spot and found the Crystal Coast Cabin. We were blessed to get to spend the week at the cabin with him. The cabin is both beautiful and centrally located. He watched the 4th of July fire works for the cabin's pier, he toured Fort Macon, enjoyed a day at the Aquarium, was able to use his metal detector once last time (a favorite of his), watched his children and grandchildren catch crabs and shrimp from the dock, rode a boat to Shackleford Banks (his favorite), enjoyed the beach and fed the seagulls one last time. All of these memories were GREAT but just getting him away for a few days and being with him in the peaceful cabin were just as GREAT!!! Daddy passed away a few weeks later but never stopped talking about his last trip to Croatan and how nice the cabin was. My family definitely plans to vacation at the cabin again! Nastasha was wonderful working with us on last minute reservations. GREAT RENTAL EXPERIENCE!

3 Couples all agree, this is the place to be!! Beautiful home, stocked kitchen and linens. The weather could have been better...but still in all, would LOVE to come back SOON!!! Central to so many spots, wish we could have stayed longer!!!!! Scott and Natasha could not have been nicer~Thank You

Our stay at this cabin was excellent. We used the cabin for the first 2 days for customers and we all went deep sea fishing. After the customers departed for home, the second 2 days were spent relaxing with the wives. The cabin is very cozy and warm. The hardwood floors throughout the first floor are very nice. The outside yard is very spacious and sitting on the back porch was a great way to unwind. We had a fun time fishing off the dock for croakers and even caught a few crabs. The Newport River is a very relaxing spot and the cabin is located close enough to Morehead and Beaufort for evening fun, but far enough to enjoy the peace and quite. We loved our stay and plan on staying again in the future.
