Perfect place to get away!

The home is beautiful and in a great location! The house is in a good neighborhood and very close to downtown New Bern. The owners are amazing, they check in to make sure everything is perfect! The house is very clean, looks like it was recently updated, and has everything you need! It was just two of us, but we will be bringing family to stay with us here in the future!!

This property is fantastic. We have stayed in VRBO properties all over the country and have not found one as clean as this property. It is very fresh looking; decor is just right; beds are superb; the extra personal touches are fantastic; and the property manager is excellent.

Just book it.

We were in New Bern for a friend’s birthday party. This house was more than we expected. Extremely clean and roomy. The back yard fire pit area was private and relaxing. The host Stephanie was extremely helpful and made the check in and out process super easy. We will definitely stay here again.

MacAuthur Retreat

We had a wonderful time at this house. It was not to far from everything we wanted to do. Very clean, comfortable and well stocked. The host was very responsive to us during our stay. We did not have any problems. We walk a lot so we met several people in the neighborhood who were very friendly. We would stay there again!
