Welcome To Drake's Cove!
The space
Discover the allure of this beautiful 2-story home with its main living areas strategically placed on the upper floor, offering a captivating view of the serene cove. Just a 15-min. drive from the historic downtown of New Bern and an painless one-hour journey to Atlantic Beach, this residence seamlessly blends convenience with coastal tranquility. Each bedroom, as well as both living rooms, features its own Intelligent TV for your entertainment.
The first floor is a haven of relaxation, featuring a full bathroom with a opulent 6' soaking tub and a separate walk-in shower. Unwind in the family room, equipped with a Classic Arcade Game offering a selection of over 5000 games, and step through French Doors to access the backyard and covered patio. Three bedrooms on this level cater to diverse preferences – a king-sized, a queen-sized, and a bunk bed accommodating both full and twin-sized beds.
Ascend to the second floor and be greeted by a flood of natural light through a wall of windows. Parlor comfortably while appreciating a movie on the 65" 4K Intelligent TV or prepare a family feast in the well-appointed kitchen with a double oven, microwave, and dishwasher. Gather around the dining room table to relish both your culinary creations and the charming vistas. The coffee station, featuring a Keurig, drip coffee maker, and electric tea kettle, ensures your favorite brew is always at hand. There is a dedicated game area that is equipped with family friendly board games and puzzles. A full bathroom with a combination hottub tub and rain shower head adds a touch of luxury, and a generously sized bedroom with two queen beds completes this floor.
This home has direct access to the water, multiple staircases and is not childproof. Kids are welcome but must be supervised at all times. Embrace the coastal appeal and comfort of this inviting home during your stay.

Broad Creek Recreation Center
We can arrange guest passes for 2 adults and kids at the Broad Creek Recreation Center. There is a pool, exercise center, Jacuzzi, Sauna, Tennis Courts & Playground. They do provide towels, so no need to bring any from the home. Additional guests can purchase a day pass at the center for a nominal fee.
Pet Agreement
We appreciate our dog and are pleased to allow you to bring yours, if he/she is
well behaved. Our preference is not to allow dogs on the furnishings. We recognize this can be a difficult request, so we offer a compromise. If you have a dog that is accustomed to getting on furnishings, please bring a protective blanket to
help protect the furnishings.
A booking with a pet agrees to the following:
I agree that my dog is up to date on all vaccinations and that he/she are on a flea/tick preventive.
I agree to provide my own dog bed and supplies.
I agree to pay a $200 fine if I leave my dog unattended and they cause a disturbance.
I agree to pay for additional cleaning, repair or replacement of any items damaged by my dog. The fear and separation anxiety experienced by many dogs left unattended can result in barking/howling and destruction of floor and door
frames. Please know your dog and do not leave him/her alone in the home, uncrated, if this is a possibility.
I agree to always pick up after my dog.
I agree to keep my dog on a leash always held by me or a responsible individual when outside—and I will remove the leash from my dog only while he/she is at the dog park, or within the confines of the home. I also agree to keep my dog close to me when other people/dogs are around
I understand this is a peaceful subdivision and I agree to prevent my dog from barking excessively or causing any other disturbance while staying at the property.

Our top Pamlico area rental home tips:
When to book & When to go:
- The sooner your group can reserve a home, the better your selection will be. The best rental properties are booked very early. Reserving your rental property six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
- Booking your vacation rental in Fall or Spring is an excellent way to save on your vacation. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of suitable properties.
- Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your family qualifies for a special rate.
- Property management companies usually offer their guests an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your property manager for more information.
- Often, management companies and vacation rental houses supply Pamlico area area visitors guide magazines which often include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a partnership between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Pamlico area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.
Choosing and booking a perfectvacation home:
- First and foremost, have your group decide on dates and a maximum budget.
- Decide how many bedrooms and the configuration your group requires. Drake's Cove - Waterfront Oasis has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Pamlico area rental home search.
- Precise information about bedrooms and bed counts & types is almost always available on booking websites. If you don't see them listed, contact the property owner before you book the home. Remember that most listings specify the maximum guest capacity, which frequently includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You will need to establish which bed configuration is best for your vacation family.
- If your family is traveling with pets, filter your search for a pet-friendly rental. Get details on breed, weight, and type restrictions. Note that some property managers require additional pet deposits and fees.
- If there's an individual Pamlico area attraction you love, look for homes that are either nearby, or those that cater especially to your needs.
- Proper accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
Some things to know before you go:
- Get the owner's phone number and check in/check out procedures for your rental. Put the host's information in your smartphone and wallet.
- Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, television set or kitchen appliance. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief call prevents lots of difficulties.
- Lock your vacation home while you're out. Protect the owner's property and your things!
- During check-in, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
- Be respectful. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
- Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
- Double-check the rental property to confirm that you've packed all personal items at departure. Re-check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
- Go through the rental a final time and look for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the property to record its condition at check-out.
- Did your family have a great vacation? Many vacation rental websites make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or property management company was wonderful, they will likely appreciate your kind words. If anything was out of order and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
