We really enjoyed our stay at the Seashell Cottage. It was a very nice home with everything we needed. It's located on a dead end street and it was very quite. If we ever visit the area again we will definitely stay here again.

Quaint, comfortable home, well kept, nicely decorated and equipped. Meg is friendly and responsive in providing booking information and directions with an excellent information folder in the home. Seashell Cottage, located in Sea Level (almost at Sea Level an hour north of Beaufort, NC) was Great for us, half mile from our daughter and grandkids. Near sound water views and rural community.

Lovely

The perfect place for a seaside getaway! Just unfortunate we came on a severe weather, so we just stayed indoors. But the amenities and place made us feel at home!
