Nice House, Pleasant Neighborhood

We enjoyed our stay at this well-appointed three bedroom house. Fairfield Harbour is very pleasant and our kids had fun in the pool. Getting out on the water with our kayak and SUP boards was easy. We appreciated our hosts for their good communication and restaurant recommendations in New Bern. We would definitely stay here again.

A lovely stay!

Cannot thank David and Terri enough for the use of their property! My fiance and I rented the house so we could get married in the lovely town of New Bern. Communication with the owners was a breeze. The place was well deoarated and had everything we needed on hand. I loved the set of woods at the back of the property! Will definitely stay there again!!

Our overflow family stayed there and had nothing but positive comments. We didn't get to enjoy it enough. 3 bedrooms make it very desirable. The hosts were gracious and accommodating.

3 Day stay in Fairfield Harbour

The house was clean, in a quiet neighborhood, and had everything we needed for our stay. Check in was very easy with excellent communication from the host. The hosts we very friendly and responded very quickly to an issue with the AC, getting it fixed within a couple of hours. The ping pong table was a nice bonus and got a lot of use during our time there. Thank you for allowing us to stay.

This was our first time staying in a VRBO and I was nervous about it. David and Terri communicated all of the information we needed to arrive and check in. Upon entering the home I was extremely happy with how clean and comfortable the home was. I will definitely consider staying here again!

Hi. Thanks for choosing our home. David and I, Terri, love New Bern. We also live here in this quaint little corner of our world and love it. We love to share with our guests all that New Bern has to offer. We both love the water. We actually met on a little island called Hope Town, which is located in the Bahamas. Some of you may have been or heard of it. We love to go sailing and take advantage of all this area has to offer. Enjoy our home and please reach out with anything you may need!
