- Private vacation home
This private historic bungalow (c. 1850) is located in the heart of historic downtown New Bern and steps away from shopping, dining, and the waterfront. The bungalow was originally a law office and sits on the property of the historic Coor-Cook residence (c. 1790), listed on the New Bern Architectural Walking Tour.
Guests have access to the entire bungalow- one bedroom with queen-sized bed. Full bathroom. Eat-in kitchen. Separate living room. WiFi. Onsite parking for 1 car.
Please note:
-there is an active train track in Hancock Street. The train comes by most days and some nighttime. It does not blow a horn.
-the bungalow sits next to our family residence which includes two very friendly cats who roam the property.
-guests do not have access to the backyard of the main home; however, the bungalow has its own modest front yard space with a patio table and two chairs.
-both the bungalow and the main home next door are historic structures that require ongoing exterior routine maintenance and repairs (wood rot repair, painting, etc.). Host will make every attempt to limit the disruption this may cause guests, but guests should be aware prior to booking.

Booking the best Pamlico area rental home experience:
Get the most from your vacation rental budget:
- The earlier you can book, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental homes are booked early. Reserving your rental property six to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
- Summer time is high season in the Pamlico area area. Reserve your vacation home in Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities.
- Some property management companies offer discounts for active duty military and veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
- Property management companies typically offer renters an option to add vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed time as a result of medical-related catastrophes or weather, as well as evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for specifics.
- Find a copy of your local Pamlico area visitors guide magazine when you check-in. If your rental doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitors guides contain deals for nearby restaurants, attractions, and tours.
How to choose and book a perfectrental:
- Start by choosing a vacation week and a budget.
- Note the number beds and the configuration your group needs. The Cottage on Hancock - entire historic cottage has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms.
- Specific information about bedrooms and bed types is almost always available online. If you don't see them listed, contact the property manager before reserving the vacation property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds in living rooms.
- Some properties allow pets, and others don't. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional charges may apply. Ask the property management company about allowable breeds and types before booking.
- Are you looking for particular amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists.
- Appropriate accessibility can make or break a vacation for those with limited mobility. Make certain to ask about specialized equipment and wheel chair accessibility.
During your stay:
- Take a copy of the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your .
- Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
- Keep the property locked while you are away! Don't let burglars ruin your trip.
- During arrival, record any damages to the rental property and immediately contact the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
- Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll magnify your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are usually a great source for finding the best local attractions.
- Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
- Double-check the property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at check-out. Make sure to check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
- Go through the property a final time and keep an eye out for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest inspecting the property with the property manager whenever you can. If the host isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the property to record its condition at check-out.
- Did you have a fantastic time? Most rental websites make it easy for guests to provide feedback. If your property and/or property manager was wonderful, they would love to hear it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to correct it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your review.
