Best Location in Oriental, NC! King Room.
Good place to stay only down side is the walls aren’t very sound proof woke up and heard the neighbor snoring a couple times😂 Great location

Waterfront Getaway in sailing village of Oriental
The place was really nice with a useable dock on the water. The host was super friendly and responsive and gave us some good local recommendations. It was definitely a quiet, quaint, and peaceful getaway!

The Whitehurst House, Historic Downtown New Bern
My stay at the Whitehust House was delightful. My host Pollie is amazing and incredibly helpful making sure my time spent here was wonderful. This is a first time staying in downtown New Bern and I love the fact I could walk everywhere. It was such a treat. Perfect location and terrific host makes it a place I plan to return.

New Bern Waterfront Porch Escape
We absolutely loved our stay at the New Bern Waterfront Porchescape! The home was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully outfitted with everything we needed for a comfortable trip. The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk to all the shops, restaurants, and charm of Downtown New Bern. We barely used our car! The hosts were incredibly accommodating and responsive, making us feel right at home. One of our favorite parts was relaxing on the porch, enjoying the peaceful views and coastal breeze. This place is a true gem—we can’t wait to come back!

River's Edge
We had a great experience in this cozy waterfront condo! There were lots of activities to do around the area, but we also felt comfortable staying in and taking in all the beautiful nature. We will certainly be back!

Luxury 2 BR. Suite, Bead Diva Loft
We travel to eastern NC every year to vend at a local festival and always enjoy finding a new BnB to stay in. This location was excellent and is the perfect spot for 2-3 guests. Super clean and felt like home!

Luxury 2 bedroom suite, Cloud Break
Jennifer was a wonderful host. She upgraded us to a larger cottage due to work she needed to do to the original place we booked. It was a great location for us. We were in town for CycleNC Coastal Bike ride and we could ride our bikes to the registration area and the starting line. We could also walk to a couple of restaurants and a microbrewery. She was very responsive and getting in was a breeze, as was checkout. Thx so much Jennifer for being such a great host!

Sailor’s Choice @ Blackwell Point Marina
This apartment was perfect for the 3 of us. It has everything you need. the view is beautiful. The beds and furniture was comfortable. We loved it and can't wait to stay again. Thank you Sarah, you're a wonderful host.

Captain's Quarters w/ Boat Slip
The Captains Quarters was a great stay for my family and I. The boat ramp, which is literally right out the front door, being available was a huge plus as we brought our boat. The outside space was wonderful and the inside space was the perfect size for 3 kids and 2 adults. The inside space was very cozy and has a great view of Blounts Creek. This is a perfect stay for the fishermen and hunters as well as family's looking to stay in a relaxed environment and spend some time outdoors. Judy was very communicative and helpful with any questions we had. Will definitely be staying many times again in the future.

Neuse River Retreat
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful cabin. Terry is an exceptional host, she went above and beyond to accommodate a special request and made sure we had everything we could possibly need and more for the perfect stay. The surroundings are beautiful and the cabin is so charming. We would absolutely book again and recommend anyone else to do so!

Crew Bern House
Beautiful house in a beautiful location. It was clean, bright and airy. The screened porch was a great spot to watch the dramatic weather during our stay.

Drake's Cove -Waterfront Oasis
This home was one of our best stays ever. The house was beautiful and very well appointed! I appreciated the labels on the kitchen cabinets as it made everything easy to find. And the labels on the light switches helped as well! We cooked in and found everything we needed in the kitchen plus we enjoyed being able to grill. And the snack basket was a nice touch! The house was immaculate and very well cared for. We enjoyed hangout there when we weren’t out exploring. It was an easy drive to downtown New Bern. And the property and neighborhood were great for our dog. Jacqueline was friendly and proactive and we could not have asked for a better host. We would highly recommend this home and would definitely return. All around great stay!

The River House w/Boat Dock and Kayaks
Zero issues! Everything went smooth. Got this for my grown kids to come visit and they enjoyed the stay. Will definitely come back !

Welcome to Sailors' Haven
Our Children are sailors and this place was a perfect fit that was better than described. The personal touches and amenities for our family will have us back on the next trip. We have a child at Camp Seagull and this made our drop off seamless while being able to check out the local community within close walking distance. Community was super friendly and Lisa was an amazing host! We’ll be back!

Riverfront New Bern House: Gourmet Kitchen & View!
Our family enjoyed the convenience to the family that we were visiting, and everything was clean and working properly. There is a faucet in the kitchen sink that has the valves reversed from a normal installation, but I figured that out. There were plenty of chairs on the deck and the house was interestingly appointed and homey. I need a bit more light and I thought it could have been more bright in the master bedroom. The only thing my elderly mother complained about was that there was a flight of stairs to climb to get to the bathroom. Not much can be done about that, so I think it is a nice house to stay in and we would do it again. Mom probably won't make another trip there anyway. The A/C system works well and you can change the temps in various rooms. Kept us cool all the time.

Dream Weaver
Great little place. You can tell it’s a nice little water community of similar getaway style homes. Clean and easy.

Marina Vista Condo III
Everything was great! Place was clean and had a wonderful few! Will definitely be booking again !

Marina Vista Studio I
Great place to stay! My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights, playing golf at Harbour pointe and exploring downtown new Bern on day 1, and then touring tryon palace, playing disc golf, and enjoying the amenities on property on day 2. Sara’s is a great dinner spot nearby for dine in or pick up!

New Bern condo with a view!
We had a wonderful stay at this new listing! The home is very comfortable, quiet, and well-appointed — perfect for a relaxing getaway. The highlight was definitely the beautiful deck overlooking the Neuse River — the view is absolutely stunning and made for peaceful mornings and unforgettable sunsets. Although this is a new listing, everything was smooth and thoughtfully prepared. I'm sure the owner will earn Super host status in no time. Highly recommend! We will definitely be back.

The Crow's Nest
I had a great stay here! Patricia was very responsive and helpful. This place is at the top of my list in New Bern.
