Welcome to Carteret Curated
by Mary Cheatham King Real Estate
A CELEBRATION OF LOCAL SMALL BUSINESSES
Carteret Curated is an Instagram account dedicated to shining a light on local small businesses! Every year we host the People's Choice Awards, inviting our community to vote for their favorite businesses. The result? A comprehensive guide celebrating each of the nominated local small businesses that make our area so special.
$3,252 RAISED!
The 2025 Crystal Coast desk Calendar (designed by our Marketing Manager, Andie!), features scenes from all around Carteret County by 12 local photographers; plus, each month is filled with our area's most popular events! All proceeds from the sale of this calendar went directly to MCKRE Gives, then distributed to local nonprofits and organizations!
Through your generous calendar purchases, we raised and donated $3,252. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you!

Each year, we host a two-week long initiative where folks in the community get to vote for their favorite local small businesses in a variety of categories. THE BEST PART? Every business that receives a vote gets featured in our annual People’s Choice Guide — a digital and printed resource that locals and visitors can refer to throughout the year.
