Exceeded my expectations, even after reading reviews and looking at listing pictures. The place is beautiful and well maintained. I’ve stayed any many rentals and overall this may be my favorite. So clean, so well-organized, had zero issues with anything. SO peaceful. My favorite part was listening to the sound of the wind through the trees and the wind chimes. We will be back 100%.

Beautiful stay on the river!
We loved our stay at this property! The listing was 100% accurate. We worked remotely for the two weeks we were there and had no problem with internet. The living spaces were great, but the screened-in porch is the star of the show! Such a beautiful setting and our dogs loved being able to run in the yard. We travelled from out of state so observing the weather and changing river levels was fascinating! We had lovely days when we spent time kayaking with the provided gear and loved sitting on the dock watching the wildlife too. Because we were there for 14 days, we took a weekend side trip to Wilmington and the ocean beaches which was also fun. We also attended a Friday night concert at the waterfront park in New Bern. We ate dinner in Oriental at Silos and Toucan Grill and enjoyed ice cream at The Bean. The Piggly Wiggly grocery story had everything we needed, and Food Lion was just a bit further away. I highly recommend this property!

Cast Away indeed
We just returned, and it was everything that we imagined and wanted we arrived to blue crabs in the crab pot (Which by the way is already in the water hanging off the dock). My son caught fish every single day! The kayaking was so Peaceful. We loved the little town and even took the ferry down to the crystal coast and saw the wild horses. My favorite place was Screened in porch with the beautiful breeze, wind, chimes chirping, birds, and smell of the saltwater.

Great location!
This home is in a lovely community. It's quiet and relaxing, and the home is well-appointed. My husband is a kayak fisherman and launched his kayak from the nearby ramp, and he had quite a bit of good fishing while we were there.

Great Getaway!
Cast Away was a wonderful getaway from all the hustle and bustle of everyday life! We thoroughly enjoyed crabbing and kayaking near the dock. We also enjoyed our time on the water (even though fish were nowhere to be found). And the screen porch was perfect! The art in the home is also unique and a breath of fresh air from stock art found in a lot of places. There are also little touches or handmade pottery throughout the home which I thought was lovely. The town of Oriental was pleasant and my son declares The Silos pizza the best pizza he has ever eaten. Two small recommendations would be a grill brush for cleaning the grill and stair treads for the wood stairs. But that wouldn’t stop us from visiting again! Thank you for sharing your gem of a getaway with us!

Home Away From Home
We LOVED our stay at Cast Away. The house is appointed perfectly for a family, especially one that has a fisherman. We have been renting vacation homes in NC for 20 years and this was the most comfortable I have ever been. The screened porch was our favorite place to sit and bird watch, Great Horned Owls, wild turkeys, red head woodpeckers, pelicans, herons of all sorts. The fishing was outstanding, We caught a 34" Redfish fron the kayak and hooked a 40"+ right from the dock that broke me off. The crab pot produced every day and even though we didn't keep them the kids loved catching and releasing them. The kitchen was perfect and had everything we needed to cook with. The basement ping pong table and dart board were perfect for the days it rained. We have never in 20 years stayed at the same place twice but this one might be the first.

Cast Away is the perfect spot.
This is the second time we have stayed at Cast Away and it continues to impress. It is a great location to access the waters we want to fish. We spend quite a bit of time fishing on my boat, so after a long day on the water, Cast Away has all the amenities to make us feel right at home. It really is a great place.
