This property fit our family perfectly. The property was spacious enough for our family to spread out and be comfortable. We really enjoyed the outside space as well as the inside space. Being able to look out and see the water was a added bonus and we really appreciated that. We are so glad the property was available.

Comfortable stay!

My family and extended family, party of 8, stayed for a week. I can say enough about how easy it was to feel at home here. The home is spacious, well appointed, and clean. We were there over the Christmas holiday so we actually used the kitchen a few times. It was helpful to have common spices and an abundance of cooking tools to make it easy. We throughly enjoyed our stay and will return when in New Bern area.

Well Stocked home

We found this home to be comfortable, peaceful and just what we needed. We were in town for a funeral and we completely enjoyed the screened in back area for morning coffee and evening chats. The weather was perfect and we had plenty of room to all hang out. They thought of everything in this house! Thank you

Girls Weekend 2023

The space was perfect for our needs. Each lady had her own bed. The ample living space was comfortable. The screened porch was lovely. Quiet neighborhood, conveniently located outside of downtown New Bern.

New Bern Family Reunion

We had a family reunion in New Bern and were looking for a nice play to stay for our trip. We now have a new standard for vacation rentals going forward. This place was perfect! Clean, spacious and the amenities were fantastic! If we ever visit the area again we would definitely book again.

2023 White Family Reunion

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your home. My parents who are in their 80's did not have to climb steps and the location was spacious and very clean. This is definitely a location I would use again for family events in the New Bern area. This beats an hotel stay any day of the week. Thank you for sharing you home. We were well please with all your amenities and your quick responses to our needs. Bonnie
