Gatekeeper’s Cottage at Chinaberry Grove..

Fresh air, open skies and a lot of space. A place where children can run and adults can play ride bikes and take long walks. Pocosin Lakes National Wildlife Refuge and six other wildlife refuges are located within an easy drive. Our community of Terra Ceia is located in the center of the historic towns of Belhaven, Bath, Plymouth and Washington. A day trip to the Atlantic Ocean is easy as the cottage is approximately ninety miles to beaches both north and south.

The space
Each bedroom has a private bath.

Guest access
Please read the captions on our photos for a walking tour of our 4 acre property! It’s in the country, so it’s quiet and peaceful.
Also a benefit of where we live, it is VERY dark on moonless nights! In fact, we’re located in the last “dark sky” area on the east coast of the USA. So, bring your telescopes and check out the stars and milky way! There is nearby access to water for boating, fishing and swimming. The yard hosts an array of birds and friendly wildlife and during the winter months depending on wind direction you can see thousands of Tundra Swans flying over the property to feed in nearby fields. You will see amazing sunrises and sunsets. Located nearby is a family farm that grows fields of seasonal flowers with a showroom that sells an array of bulbs. Also nearby in the town of Belhaven is a family owned and operated five star restaurant. Our goal is to give you the best that country living has to offer.
