Perfect Little Bungalow!
We enjoyed our stay in New Bern! This house is very clean and well stocked with anything you would need. Beds are very comfortable. Close to town, but not in town. Convenient to all areas. Loved both the front and back porches! Especially the porch swing. Just what we needed. We will be back! Thank you Maura and Peter.

Picture Perfect
Your property is gorgeous and we are lovef being so close to downtown New Bern! You did a fantastic job with renovating and decorating this lovely home. My travel buddy and I have stayed at many VRBO's and this is one of the nicest at which we have been. The proximity to downtown makes it very appealing. The cleanliness, your notes, the snacks, coffee, kitchen basics, laundry basics, and personal touches are amazing. The local literature was also very helpful. I can understand why your reviews are always so positive!!! If I have a reason to be in New Bern again, I would definitely seek out this property!

Great experience
This was the second time I have stayed in this property. Everything was great and the location near my family was perfect. Communication with the owner during a trip delay due to weather was excellent. Highly recommend this property. Look forward to staying again in the future.

Cute and Cozy
My sister and I are originally from New Bern, we just don't get to go back often or as much. Since we had an ample amount of time off for the holidays, we decided to book this place (after reading reviews). We were super close to all of our favorite places to eat (Smithfield's Chicken &BBQ) and (Hwy55), just a couple (too many to list)!!! Maura's place has cute decor, I hated that I couldn't enjoy coffee on the porch (it was too cold), but I did love the porch swing! Overall, it was a great stay!!! Thank you Maura!!!!

This was a great house and had everything needed to feel like home away from home. The location to family was just perfect. Seemed central to everything.
