    "This neighborhood is quiet when it counts and lively in the summer. It's located near the water, but not to close, with a deeded day dock and 6 boat slips on the intercostal waterway. The residents are friendly and helpful, crime is non-existent, and everyone keeps their yards and homes tip-top. Great for children and adults, good place to move about on a golf cart, and there seems to always be a breeze in the summer. Located near friends in Goose Creek. Located between Morehead City and Swansboro. Lowes, Lowes Food, Wilco Hess, Goose Creek Marine, McDonalds, Hardee's, Subway, Walgreens, Golfin Dolphin, etc., are just a few minutes down the road. Great views, some better than others, all and all an outstanding place to raise a family, retire, or just kick back and enjoy the good life. "

    "Wonderful area to raise a family , retirees, or young folks who like swimming and surfing at the beach. Atlantic Beach, Emerald Isle, and Fort Macon only minutes away. Or get there by boat from your waterfront property in Newport on the mainland. Only 3 miles to the beach by boat. Enjoy your private dock and boat lift. And the Croatan High School is literally across the street. One of the TOP rated high schools in the state of North Carolina!!"
