Perfect location to walk to town! We brought our dog and the fenced yard was nice to have. There’s even a garden in the backyard with tomatoes and herbs. The home was very comfortable and the perfect size for myself, my husband, and our dog. Thanks for a lovely long weekend!

The property was located in down town New Bern, which made getting around town walkable. The outdoor space was nice. The only thing to keep in mind is the bedrooms are upstairs. But there is a sofa bed downstairs. The hostess was very responsive to all of my inquiries. Our stay there was just what we were hoping for.

Property was exceptionally clean and well appointed with everything one might need. Lots of charm and character in this older home. The home is conveniently located to everything in the historic district. We would definitely consider staying here again. The host was quick to reply to any correspondence which I certainly appreciated.

We had a great stay in New Bern! This is an older, but very charming house. It’s walking distance to downtown, so it was perfect for us. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. The side yard is fenced in and perfect for our fur babies. April was quick to respond with check in/ out info, and to any questions I had. I definitely give this 5 stars and highly recommend!

Great, cozy, comfortable, close to everything. We loved staying here. The space is charming and we had everything we needed. We appreciated having plenty of towels in kitchen and baths, a comfortable bed, the lovely blooming Confederate jasmine, and an easy walk to everything in the historic district. We didn't bring pets but even though the space allows pets, it was super clean. No trace of past furry friends. Check in and out was easy and April was very responsive to questions. We would gladly rent this space again!

The house was great alternative to a hotel because we have 2 miniature dachshunds and we enjoyed being able to be so close to downtown, take them into the yard, not worry about the occassional bark, etc. The house was neat, clean and the process was extremely easy. These old, historic houses are interesting because they are "old", but that adds to the charm. We were very happy with our stay and recommend this property and April to anyone visiting New Bern. It's also right across from the Police Station which might be a comfort to some.
