About this Property

• Sleeps 4

Come relax at one of the most special condos in New Bern. This corner 2 BR/ 2 BA unit has balconies facing the marina that are prime for calming. The side balcony that faces the fishing pier and kayak launch is a shady spot for dining.

Just 20 mins. from the airport and downtown New Bern, this sailboat and golf community is a jewel. We are a short 1 hr 15 mins from Atlantic Beach and the NC Aquarium. The appealing town of Oriental is only 40 mins away.

The space
We created this space to be a relaxing hideaway. It is the kind of place where you will adore doing tons of interesting things or just doing nothing. Read a book in the balcony breezes, swim at the pool, walk around historic downtown New Bern, fish, golf, or stay in and work from "home." Everything is better here!

Guest access
Guests have access to the entire condo. They also have access to the Rec Center amenities and need to call them directly to schedule. Access may be limited due to Covid. Community activities include putt putt, tennis, basketball, golf, swimming, gym, kayak & bicycle rental plus great running trails.

Other things to note
There is a modest boat ramp, kayak launch space and fishing pier next to our building. A bigger boat ramp is located just mins. away via a different street in our community. Guests are welcome to use these. If you plan to bring a boat please let us know in advance so we can obtain a Boat Ramp Pass for you. Kayaks, fishing poles and canoes can be rented from Stillwater Kayaks (a 5 min walk).

Strategies to get the optimal vacation rental experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Booking in Spring or Fall is a great way to save on your vacation home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Pamlico area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open a year in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups book their Summer vacation rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Veterans and Active Duty Military members may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property manager if your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Property managers often offer customers an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for additional information.
• Find a copy of your local Pamlico area visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local articles, visitor guide magazines contain money saving offers on nearby tours and attractions.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Choose a group leader, choose your vacation dates, and choose a max budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration you need. River's Edge has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is normally accessible on booking websites. If not, contact the property management company before reserving the property. Remember that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to determine what is right for your group.
• Are you visiting for a specific event or attraction? Try a map search to browse nearby rentals.
• Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with disabilities. Confirm all required amenities are included before reserving a rental.
• Some properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of dog or cat, weight and breeds may be restricted, and additional fees may apply. Ask the property management company about pets before booking.

More considerations for your visit:

• Put the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
• To ensure that damages are not linked to your family's visit, make note of any problem areas upon check in. E-mail the property manager immediately to report any damages. If there is a dispute, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a fireplace, stereo or appliance. Contact your property manager. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of concerns.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like loud visitors bothering your peaceful neighborhood. Employ the golden rule for common sense. If they like you, locals might even recommend great restaurants and scenic spots you would have never otherwise known!
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Locals can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to go for the best drinks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for fine dining?
• Protect the property owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would at home.
• Double-check the property to make sure that you've packed all belongings on check-out day. Make sure to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• After your trip, leave a review! Property owners rely on great ratings to compel more bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other families will will be grateful for your review find their best rental home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the property manager had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
