Wonderful house!!

We had a wonderful weekend in New Bern! The house was perfect! It had everything you could possibly need for a weekend trip! We were so impressed by all the little details. The old charm of the house was adorable! It was in a perfect location for spending ample time downtown. It was a super short drive or uber ride to the local shops and bars. Everyone we met was so friendly. We would definitely rent again!!

Home away from home

This was our 4th stay at this property. We have family in the area and the cottage - or the “little yellow house” as my mother-in-law calls it ;-) - is just minutes away from where they live. It’s so comfortable and convenient to everything. The owner is very easy to work with and does a great job of responding quickly to any questions we have. We travel to New Bern about every 3 months now. It is truly our home away from home!

Home away from home

We were in town for a retirement. This cozy house was truly home away from home. Cozy and inviting. She was stocked with more than you could imagine to make the stay easy. The location was great, easy to access. We were able to head out the the beaches a few days and it was super great to be able to come back and hose everything off before our return home. Highly recommend and would stay again

Charming bungalow!

We stayed here for two nights to drop off our kids at camp, a big trip with lots of logistics coming from NYC, and this sweet house was such a welcome respite, the perfect place to stretch out. We loved the swing on the front porch (lovely reading spot), and the screened in porch our back was just the right size for yoga with my kids. Amazing attention to detail — candy jars, coffee and creamer, snacks, and lovely toiletries. A great family alternative to the motels and B and Bs in town, it’s a 5 min drive from the shops and restaurants we love in New Bern.
