SUMMARY
Formerly an animal and vegetable farm, this gorgeous home sits on 10 acres and is only 2 miles from from hwy 55 and hwy 70 and not far from hwy 17. It has a cavernous yard with back porch and wheelchair ramp. Surrounded by a mature forest, the home is still a short drive from New Bern's burgeoning downtown, cozy eateries, fashionable pier, and close by attractions such as local fishing, boating, bird watching, Atlantic Beach, Emerald Isle, Fort Jackson, Camp Lejeune, and Cherry Point.


THE SPACE
The home is new, but the land was farmed by my granddad and dad (and their siblings) since the early 1900’s. There were cows, horses, goats, hogs, chickens, dogs, and of course vegetables and flowers. Farming is what helped them survive the Great Depression, raise their families, and continue up to 2013 when my father sold the last goats. It really is a special place where time seems to stop and anxiety falls away. I hope you appreciate your stay.

This is a newer home and completely refreshed from the kitchen to the closets. There are tons of windows, which make the home bright and airy and provide vistas of the broad yard and field.

With 4 queen beds, everybody in your group will get the space and privacy they want for the price you want. The Master Suite has a queen bed, giant walk-in closet, and private full bathroom with garden tub and shower. The second bedroom has 2 queen beds and a walk-in closet. The third bedroom has 1 queen bed and a walk-in closet.

The home includes an eat in kitchen with breakfast bar and dining room, a enormous living room, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and laundry room.

This home is great for individuals, families, or groups. Kids are welcome, but please note the home is not kid-proofed and does not provide any infant/toddler supplies or furnishings.


GUEST ACCESS
Guests can access everything, including a entirely equipped kitchen and the washer and dryer. Please, clean what you use (dishes, stovetop, spills, etc.) and return everything to its place (games, remotes, keys, etc.)


OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
To stay in this home, at least one guest should be able to open the front gate by hand. It is about 20 lbs.

The interior doors are wide enough for wheelchairs and there is a ramp on the back porch.

This is a non-smoking home.

Animals and farm animals formerly lived on this property.


THE NEIGHBORHOOD
I adore this little area because it is a safe, peaceful, close-knit community. All of the neighbors know each other and are very friendly, but there is so much land between this home and the next, that there is tons of privacy. The home is tucked away, surrounded by mature trees and forest, but still less than 2 miles from highway 55 and highway 70 and not far from highway 17. You'll never have your roads blocked off for marathons and festivals, but you'll still be able to savor all the downtown activity.

You'll be about 10 mins. from anything in New Bern. With fast and painless highway access, downtown is nearly a straight shot from any close by road.

Tips and Tricks to get the best Pamlico area vacation rental experience:

Getting the most from your rental budget:

• The earlier your group can book, the easier your search will be. The most desirable vacation rentals are booked early. Booking your rental property up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and book your vacation rental.
• Booking your Pamlico area vacation home in Fall or Spring is our favorite way to save money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable homes. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Pamlico area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your family qualifies for a price reduction or discount.
• Property management companies typically offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
• Find a copy of your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitor guides have discounts for nearby shops and restaurants.

How to pick the perfect rental in the Pamlico area area:

• First and foremost, have your group select the best dates and a budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. Sleeps 6 in 4 Queen Beds, former farmland, near New Bern, home of Tryon Palace. has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific details about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is commonly available online. Otherwise, email or call the host before you book your rental. Remember that most listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds and bunks.
• If your group is bringing pets, you will need a property that allows animals. Request information on breed, size, and type requirements. Some property owners require additional pet deposits and fees.
• Visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.

Considerations for your stay:

• Review check in & check out procedures before leaving home. Save the directions to your phone, and take a printed backup.
• Hosts are available to help! Feel free to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Keep the property locked while you're away! Don't let burglars spoil your family vacation.
• Upon arrival, document any damages to the property and immediately contact the host. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
• Be a good neighbor! You wouldn't like disagreeable visitors bothering your peace. Apply the golden rule for common sense. Happy residents may even recommend great restaurants and places you would've never otherwise known about!
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually 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 crabbing?
• Re-check every room of the property to confirm that you've packed everything at departure. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Walk through the rental one final time and look for damage. We suggest walking through with the host whenever you can. If the host is not available, remember to take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Remember to leave a review! Property managers rely on good feedback to compel more bookings. They'll be thankful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationing families will be thankful you shared your review find their best vacation rental. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
