The property was perfect for the 4 of us (my wife and I and our two dogs). It was very clean and thoughtfully stocked. Communicate with Chris was easy and he was quick to respond with any questions we had. We will be checking with him first on any return visits.

Chris was a great host. Check in was a breeze. House is well stocked and comfortable. Fenced in backyard is good if you bring your pup. The house is close to town and route 70. This is our second time renting the the house so that has to tell how much we liked it.

The owner's directions for check-in were accurate and everything went smoothly. The home was charming, clean, and matched its photos. The kitchen was well-equipped and the house contained everything that we needed for a smooth trip. The location was perfect for easy access to downtown New Bern in less than 5 minutes. Grocery store across street was convenient for making dinner. Walked our dog around the neighborhood and fenced in yard allowed our pet to have some room to stretch his legs.

Retro Retreat was the PERFECT place for us to stay in New Bern! We needed a dog/pet friendly home as we had to travel with our Lucy for a family event. The decor was colorful but soothing at the same time, the beds and couches were comfortable and there was absolutely everything we needed plus three (yes 3) coffee pots. The location was very convenient to our family's homes (but not too close) and only 10 minutes from the lovely downtown area. In addition to the great downtown restaurants, there's one local favorite within walking distance. The site is also just a short trip to Morehead City, Atlantic Beach and Beaufort. Chris was an awesome host, providing clear information for both check-in and check-out. Additionally, he responded quickly to any questions and offered recommendations for restaurants, and checked in on us every day. We did not want to leave, but "real life" was calling. I'll defininately chose this (if available) for any future visits to the area.

Guest booked but never actually checked in. They requested an early check in, which was granted but the guest never showed up. I hope everything is ok.
