Beautiful house in great location. Close to water and close to historic downtown New Bern. Saturday even had a little craft show with local vendors and food trucks just 100 yards from the front porch by the water..

The house was comfortable and the neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. The kitchen was more well-stocked than my own. We had a great visit to New Bern and the house was conveniently located.

We were very comfortable in this home. We found the property clean and just as described online. There were bonuses we did not expect. The fresh cut flowers on the dining room table were a pleasant surprise. And, the chocolate chip cookies were delicious!I might add, that after traveling almost 1,000 miles, the mattress in the master bedroom was very comfortable. We would stay again.

The Heath House was the perfect place for our girls’ trip!! The cookies and flowers were a nice welcoming touch. The house was very clean and had everything we needed and full of character!!! Never heard any street noise or the neighbors. The occasional train whistle only added more charm to the neighborhood. The beds were very comfortable and there was no lack of hot water. While we could’ve walked to downtown, we knew we would be shopping so we took advantage of the free parking near the shops. Communication with the host was effortless. The only thing we lacked while staying at the Heath House was more time.

We had an excellent stay at the Heath House, a lovely historic home in the heart of New Bern. We felt like we were staying in a doll house. PJ was a great host, the house was very clean and comfortable. The front porch was a lovely place to sit and sip our morning coffee even during a week with temps in the nineties. We would not hesitate to book there again.

This is a well maintained historical property near many attractions. The host is responsive and accommodating. The king size bed is very comfortable. The upstairs is very warm, even adjusting the temperature. The ceiling fans are helpful. Only one house key is provided, which complicates the logistics of coming and going from the property- if there are multiple people staying (there are two bedrooms).The backyard is very well maintained and there is a grill and fire pit, which are ready to be used.The washer and drier and full kitchen are ever helpful for longer stays.The plants, fresh flowers, coffee, and cookies are thoughtful touches.We will definitely consider staying here again- as this was overall a good experience!

Neighbors were inquisitive but friendly. The rule for families with children under 25 is a bit excessive. Home is cozy and clean. Great location convenient to downtown and Neuse River.

Host went out of his way to ensure a comfortable stay. A snow storm threatened to cancel our trip & he shoveled the front walk & steps so we could get into tbe house safely & took the time to check out road conditions for us. Freshly baked cookies greeted us when we arrived. Home is well equipped, clean, and very comfortable!
