Located at the site of a former Indian settlement along the Neuse River, Minnesott Beach is a quiet golfing, sailing and retirement community boasting an 18-hole golf course, marina, world-class boys camp and NC Ferry Terminal to and from Cherry Point.
The old settlement is thought to be one of the largest Indian trading centers in the South Atlantic states and the name “Minnesott” is said to have originated from an Indian word meaning “land of the sky-tinted waters.”
