Fantastic stay for event in New Bern

We were blown away when we walked in the door. The home was beautiful, well maintained, and accommodating for guests. The kitchen had everything we needed, the beds were very comfortable and the hosts were very attentive when we reached out! We will definitely book this again for future trips/events we have planned in New Bern.

Huge house with historic charm

This house is in a great location- you can walk to so many restaurants, shops and historic properties without ever getting in your car! If you want a great place to walk with your dog, Martin Marietta Park is just a short drive away and has nice flat trails.

Christmas with our Marine

I can’t say enough about this home and the host! Great location, so much space and character in the house. We were coming in for Christmas to see our son and the host made certain the home was festive and decorated. So considerate! Host was very attentive to any questions! Will be staying again on future visits!

Great home and wonderful stay

The house was very comfortable. We enjoyed sitting on the porch in the mornings drinking our coffee and enjoying the peacefulness. We loved how it was close but not too close to downtown. The only problem was not being able to connect to the wifi on the back room tv. The couch in the front room needs to be replaced as you sink into it and it is hard to get out of. But otherwise, it was a great place and would love to stay there again.
