The home is conveniently located at the end of a cul-de-sac, with plenty of yard space and a huge driveway for multiple cars.

This is an entire home rental so you will have private access to every room in the home. Spend a day relaxing at home, or rent kayaks at Merchant's Grocery and Shell Gas Station (9 min. drive) for the day to savor the peaceful Neuse River as a family. If you want some pool time, call or stop by the local Twin Rivers YMCA to see about how to get a pool guest pass throughout your stay (just be sure to arrange this in advance). Near Atlantic Beach, there's also Fort Macon Park, Pine Knoll Shores Aquarium, and some GREAT places to shop and eat! We supplied a Welcome Book on the kitchen table for you to see some of the great things to do in New Bern. Don't worry about bringing a bunch of different outfits either!!! This family home has a washer and dryer so that you can do laundry before heading home! There is also a carport and shed on site-- please note, these are not available to guests.

Feel complimentary to reach out with anything you may need!

The home is at the end of a cul-de-sac giving tons of space and privacy for your stay!

The neighborhood is just off the main road US 70. The home is at the end of the street so you don't hear the traffic passing by.

Our top New Bern rental home booking tips and tricks:

Sticking to your rental budget:

• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules generally become available twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacations during Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
• To book the best vacation home within budget, we suggest booking in the Fall or Spring. You'll benefit from lower rates, better selection, beautiful weather and the absence of large crowds at the beach and popular Pamlico area attractions. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a discount.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for specifics.
• Often, property management companies supply Pamlico area area visitor guide magazines that include special offers, either offered independently by local businesses, or through a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Choosing the perfect vacation rental in New Bern:

• Start by having your family agree to dates and a budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your family needs. Quiet Extended Stay with Spa Bath, Fenced Yard has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available online. If they are not listed, contact the property manager before booking the vacation property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to establish what configuration is optimal for your family.
• If your group is bringing pets, search for a rental that allows animals. Request information on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Usually, property owners charge additional pet fees.
• Are you visiting for a specific attraction? Try a map search to locate nearby rentals.
• Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for guests with disabilities. .

More tips for your visit:

• Be sure you get the property manager's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, elevator or thermostat. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief phone call can prevent a lot of difficulties.
• Ensure you protect the owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property while you are away, just like you would at home.
• Note any damages to the property at check in, and immediately send them to the owner. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain time stamps that are helpful if damages are assessed.
• Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often a fantastic resource to find the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Neighbors can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fishing?
• Double-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all personal items at departure. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Inspect the property a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We recommend inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Leave a review! Property owners rely on excellent feedback to inspire future reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
