Grantsboro is a small, quiet town in Pamlico County (pop. ~692) at the intersection of NC‑55 and NC‑306, offering a low‑traffic, affordable base with easy access to Pamlico Sound waterways for fishing, paddling and relaxed outdoor time — an inviting spot for multi‑week stays.
If you want more restaurants, nightlife and attractions, historic New Bern—with Tryon Palace, waterfront dining and boutiques—is only about 14 miles away, and the coast at Morehead City/Atlantic Beach is within roughly a 50‑mile day trip for beaches, fishing charters and bigger-city amenities.
