Cottage vacation rentals in New Bern

We wanted something close to Camp Lejeune and not too far from the beach and this place checked both those boxes. Clean and quiet yet not too far from restaurants and shops. It was a very peaceful and relaxing getaway. Carol was an amazing host.

Staying at this Airbnb felt like a true escape. The location couldn't have been better – being mere steps from the beach was such a treat, allowing for spontaneous walks and the calming sound of the waves. It was wonderful to find such a genuinely dog-friendly place; my pups absolutely loved it, which made the stay even more enjoyable for me. The entire atmosphere was incredibly relaxing, and I found the off-season to be a particularly lovely time to visit, with beautiful weather and a sense of peacefulness. The property itself had everything I could possibly need, making it easy to settle in and feel comfortable. Amy was fantastic – always communicative and helpful, ensuring a smooth and easy stay. While there were plenty of options for things to do in the area, I also appreciated the opportunity to simply unwind and work remotely in such a serene setting. The upper deck was my favorite spot for getting sun many hours of the day. I’ve stayed in many airbnbs and this is a favorite!

Mallory & John were both very friendly, quick to respond and accommodating to our check in needs and questions throughout the stay. The home was clean and well equipped. Perfect for my family and only 10 mins from the beach! The kids loved the pool and backyard space for fishing, running around and relaxing in the hammocks. My only suggestion would be to pack bug spray for the back yard since you are near the lake (the mosquitoes loved us!) and to be prepared for a bit of a bumpy ride into the neighborhood as there are many potholes in the gravel road leading up to the house. Not a complaint and not the hosts fault of course. Just want to help! We would stay here again :)

I have booked multiple Air BnB’s this by far has been the best experience. The home was beautifully decorated and very welcoming. The snacks were an added bonus and perfectly picked! If you are considering booking this DO IT! Board games and books are available. Kristy has equipped that house with exactly what you need to enjoy time as a couple or with children.

Very close to the beach as well as shops & restaurants. very cozy home and elizabeth is very sweet and quick to respond!

It was asolutely beautiful here! after booking, we were so excited to hear they installed extras on the property and we got to enjoy a fire pit as well as the jacuzzi. easy drive to the beach and local stores and shops to entertain everyone. I would definitely come back with my littles next time, there was a lot to accommodate children! the only issue I had was unlocking the door and even though it was 1am, I was able to get someone on the phone to let me inside. wonderful stay!! 10/10

This is my family and I favorite place to stay! We fish off the dock, go kayaking, swim and play in the sand. It’s an easy walk to the ocean side if you want to go there. We spend most of time at the at the beach area there at the house.

We had a great week at Jill’s place! We brought our two pups with us and they enjoyed the fenced in yard. We liked the convenient location and short walk to the beach. The place had everything we needed. When we had a problem, Jill was quick to respond and addressed the issues immediately which was great. Made our stay so much better! The only thing I’ll note for future renters is to keep in mind that you’re on the bottom floor with other renters above, which means their footsteps can be very noisy at times. We had our infant with us who goes to bed early and naps during the day, so we were very aware of the extra noise. But other than that, it’s a great spot and we would love to have Jill as a host again!

Hilda was very helpful and responsive. Her home was perfect for our family vacation, we loved sitting on the porch and enjoying the views. The beach access is a short walk across the street. The home was very comfortable to stay in, a nice quiet neighborhood. Restaurants and grocery stores are only about 10 minutes away. We would definitely stay again. Thank you Hilda!

We loved everything about this house! Perfect location, great and VERY responsive host, clean! We had an issue where we couldn’t find something (our fault) and they brought us a replacement. The views are amazing! Everything was in the house from linens, to bikes, the deck was great! I can’t say anything bad at all! We will definitely visit again!

What a charming little cottage in the historical section of Beaufort! It was perfect for our needs as my daughter was fishing in the Big Rock Tournament, and I tagged along to enjoy Beaufort while she was out on the boat. We loved the neighborhood and enjoyed being able to walk to dinner and to the waterfront. Thank you for sharing your home!

The Cottage has an interesting vibe from feeling as though you’re in your Grandmother’s kitchen, to a Cabin with your parents when you were a child. I love the (Brady-Bunch) / game room etc. The dogs thoroughly enjoyed the backyard with no incident. I would most definitely rent this ARBNB again! Brendan Watson-Dukic

The cottage is downright adorable, perfect for a getaway! Host is incredibly helpful and friendly.

Perfect place for the weekend! The backyard was great, our dog really enjoyed her time back there. Beds were very comfortable and the whole place as a whole was exceptionally clean. Would stay again!

Great location for a slow, beach getaway with my family. We especially enjoyed the lovely, breezy porch and the beautiful, wooded location. Walking to the beach and to the ferry was easy. We appreciated all the extra amenities: beach chairs, puzzles and kitchen equipment. We would probably pack more water for drinking next time, but the little store had everything we needed. The drive onto the island, while truly stunning in many places, reminded us that our country is deeply divided and it will be a relief when the election is over.

Cathryn was very responsive and helpful with any questions we had. Place looked just as shown in the pictures and was very clean. Would definitely recommend to any family or group of friends who want a fun trip to the beach!

We came down for a family reunion and stayed at this wonderful home. The home is cozy, clean and in a fantastic location. Ronald was quick to answer any questions I had. Looking forward to staying here again.

We had a great stay!! Perfect for our little fishing getaway. Didn’t find the huge redfish, but maybe next time. Thanks for sharing your home with us!

Everything about this Airbnb was amazing! We wanted to stay close to family and this was the perfect location. Very close to the harbor! Which made boating very easy. Everything was very clean inside. Amanda was a great host and we would definitely stay there again!

We had a great week at the beach staying at Sue’s house! The house was the perfect size for our family of four. It was just a short walk to a public beach access. We also enjoyed kayaking in the creeks behind the house, watching the beautiful sunsets on the back deck, and grilling and eating in the awesome area under the house. Sue was very responsive whenever we needed anything. We would definitely stay here again.

This was our family of three's third stay at Soundmohr and we loved it as always! We love having our own space instead of a noisy condo, and you can't beat the view of the sound with the private pier. Trent has always been friendly and accommodating and is very responsive to any concerns. Wish we could have started longer!

very nice get away from your everyday life, especially when visiting from the city. only about 15 minutes away from the beach. The place looks exactly like the pictures. Extremely beautiful and peaceful my family really enjoyed their visit.
