Cute bungalow
Cute bungalow was clean, spacious and met all of our needs on our recent stay. Proximity to downtown offers the ability to walk to a variety of restaurants, a few shops and campus. The house provided everything we needed, the beds were comfortable and the coffee bar was a great addition. We spent a lot of time outside and enjoyed having that extra space in the yard as well. We will be back!

Pirates Retreat
Owner was very communicative and helpful! 5 star owner. Cottage as advertised and clean, neat, well updated. Neighborhood was just ok but close proximity to uptown which is nice and new. TV was streaming only which is a pain in the rear. Overall would stay again for sure.

Getting Our ECU Senior Settled and Celebrating His 22nd Birthday
We loved staying at the Pirates Hide Away! It is our 2nd time staying here, and we will definitely stay again in the future. The house is only 1 mile to our Son's house, which made it very convenient for us getting him settled in for his Senior year at ECU and for celebrating his 22nd Birthday! We look forward to our next stay!

Cozy, Clean and Convenient!
We throughly enjoyed our stay over the long weekend. The house was cozy, clean and convenient...indoors and outdoors… great all around for us and our pups. All was comfortable and enjoyable, we even had some family and friends to visit/hang in the family room and enjoyed Sunday family dinner in the Dining Room. The kitchen is smaller but with creativity it's definitely large enough to pull off a big meal. We are so happy to have found this great option for a Greenville getaway. Thank you so much!

Good Times
absolute perfection for 5 friends re-connecting from grad school which was 20 years ago! one of the best VRBO homes I have stayed in. proximity to ECU campus, downtown, shops, restaurants, bars could not have been closer. I never used my car during the 4 day stay. we did not mind the proximity to ECU student/Greek housing either, but other guests may need to consider this ;)
