Crew Bern House

LucasRating, 5 stars5 days ago

This place is perfect. We have stay at a lot of AirBnB’s and none of them ever feel like home, until we stayed here. The house is brand new, everything was clean and so nicely furnished. Beds were comfortable, and had great bedding. Furniture was very nice, not the cheap stuff normally found in rentals. This is the level I was expecting when I paid what I did. We plan to come back to New Bern often and this will be the only place we stay. Great job to the owners. If you’re reading this review, just book it. I promise it is worth it.

Riverside Serenity

LaraRating, 5 stars1 week ago

What a hidden gem! We stay here with our children (8 and 5yo). The house was incredibly clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Wonderful view from the deck. The property is beautiful. We fished off the dock for hours and had a blast swimming in the pool. We even saw a dolphin swim within 20 feet of the dock! Oriental is a cute town nearby - we had great carry out from The Silos and went to The Bean for ice cream. Piggly Wiggly grocery store had everything we needed. We loved our stay here and have already booked our next trip! Thanks for having us.

Beautiful Beachfront Home w/Stunning Views

TimRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

Excellent! Beautiful location right on the water - easy enough to just walk right out and be on the water. Place was very clean and comfortable. Nice to wake up and see sunrise over the water. Large windows made it amazing. Plenty of amenities like deck chairs, hammock, kayaks, life vests, etc. Really just a vacation ready to roll. Side yard was huge and very dog friendly. Even met the neighbor and he was nice as well. New Bern was 30 minute drive away and great to walk around downtown if you want that. Ben was excellent host. Very kind, super responsive, and made us feel taken care of if we needed anything. Highly recommend if you're looking for a quiet vacation spot on the water. Excellent experience and can't wait to visit again!
