Beautiful home! Great location close to downtown and all the best of Beaufort. We enjoyed using the beach bikes, and the beach umbrella and chairs were so convenient. Robin was extremely responsive and courteous about a slight a/c issue during our stay. Would definitely recommend this place!

Three of us stayed at the Starfish. It is a sweet little cottage in the town of Beaufort. We walked everywhere we wanted to go, except to the main grocery store. That is why we visit Beaufort, so we can walk everywhere and be near the water! We were so happy with this cottage and would definitely stay again in the future. We sat in the rockers and swing on the front porch every morning for coffee and breakfast.

I have stayed at the Starfish Cottage numerous times and it has always been clean and comfortable. A bonus is that they allow pets.The cottage is walking distance to everything that you would want to explore in downtown Beaufort. It is located across from the seasonal farmers market.A great place to stay while visiting Beaufort, NC.

Lovely home, comfortable spaces and beds! Good hot water in the shower and a good amount of pots and pans in the kitchen. If you haven’t visited Beaufort, know that this is a fantastic location close to the shops and restaurants downtown and across from the Saturday farmer’s market location.

Beaufort is a great place to spend a few days and our rental at "Starfish" gave us a way to explore and enjoy the area. The home is part of a four-unit "complex" located on a busy main road into the heart of the town. Road noise and traffic during the day was very noticeable but no issues for sleeping. "Starfish" is directly across from the county courthouse so we got to watch a wedding "on the grounds" and walk across the street to the farmer's market on Saturday. The house was clean and had the essentials for the trip. The front porch rockers and swing allow you ample space to set back, wave hello to the many walkers passing by, and the good spot for an afternoon nap.

This is a lovely property. It is well-maintained, clean and comfortably furnished. We enjoyed walking to the waterfront, shops and restaurants. Turner St is a busy road and the traffic noise early in the morning and in the evening made conversation on the porch less pleasant. The mattress on the queen bed in the front bedroom was very soft. Other than those 2 things we enjoyed our stay very much and will plan to return.
