I rented both sides of this beautiful duplex for out of town family that was coming in for our daughter’s wedding in downtown NewBern. It is a wonderful house and our family raved about how nice it was and the convenience to downtown shops and restaurants. Would highly recommend this owner and rental. Thank you

Quiet and convenient stay

We were in town for Easter weekend and this home was great for our needs. It is in a quiet historic neighborhood from which we enjoyed the walks to town with our dog. Would definitely stay here again.

Great stay in New Bern!

This was our first time to New Bern and we loved our house. We were in for a family wedding and the house worked out perfectly. The location was perfect, within walking distance to shops and restaurants. The house was well equipped and well appointed. We would highly recommend staying at this property.

New Bern visit

This old house is filled with charm! Tall ceilings, wooden floors and vintage furnishings were coupled with beautifully renovated bathrooms. The downsides were creaky and uncomfortable beds and an unusable outside space in the back.

This old house is very charming and in a quiet neighborhood. Easy walk to local restaurants and downtown for shopping. Keep in mind that this is an old house but some simple updates could make this a great stay. The back porch area needs a lot of work and was not a comfortable place to sit without much cleaning. The front porch had only one chair (I suspect the renters in the attached unit took it as they had 3) and could not be used by more than one person to have coffee or cocktails. Beds were comfortable enough but pillows were not. Plenty of bedroom space and bathrooms were good sizes as well.
