the get away cottage
We had a nice time! It would be nice in the summer to use the kayaks-we did have a little trouble at night navigating, the GPS had the road names wrong- but we got it the second night- and learned our way around, Randy even said he would like a little place like this out on some land- just don't know where? but that is a huge compliment!!

Lake house retreat
We only had a short stay here as we were road tripping to other places but this was an awesome stop along the way. This is a home on the owners property separate from their house. It had everything we needed to feel like we were at home. It was quiet and peaceful. The waterfront is beautiful to walk down to. We met one of the owners, Marisol who was sweet and welcoming and we appreciated her hospitality. Would 10/10 recommend staying here for a quiet getaway that’s close to New Bern. This is the cleanest property I have ever stayed at!!! Thank you for having us.

Everything was wonderful. Marisol and Matthew were great hosts and their property was perfect for our short trip. The rental and grounds were dog friendly (and Lucy loved their dog Roo) and a short drive to downtown New Bern. Their suggestions for local food were also great! We can't wait for another excuse to book so we can enjoy the river some more. Thank you!
