Cottage holiday 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 :)

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

This was an absolutely perfect Topsail vacation home! We loved every minute of our stay. The location is absolutely fantastic. So close to the little local shops and restaurants as well as super close to the bridge going over to the mainland.. The house itself was spotless and quite comfortable. Had everything we needed to cook full meals. Plenty of kitchenware for our group of seven. Proximity to the beach is by far the most fantastic detail of this house! The little private sandy beach *yard* attached to the deck is awesome for kids and the beach itself just down a few steps is so amazing. We could even sit in bed and see the ocean waves! This is the best house with beach access and views we've stayed at in Topsail. Also positive to note, the entire property being fenced in felt incredibly safe for kids and was fantastic for our dog. We realized the apartment was a part of the rental unit and we were so pleasantly surprised! It was a great separate space! Overall highly recommend!

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!

We had a wonderful vacation stay at your home. The location is convenient and your home had what we needed. We enjoyed using the kayaks. We didn’t need to use the bicycles. Thank you for allowing us to stay here. We would stay again if the home was available.

Diane was a wonderful host and her place is adorable! You get vintage beach cottage feel with modern upgrades and amenities. Clean, well-appointed, charming, conveniently located to the beach (2.5 blocks) shops, restaurants, nightlife, and just across the bridge from the Big Rock fishing tournament. The Atlantic Beach sand is the best we've ever experienced and the surf was gentle on several days. We saw dolphins and all mannwr of birds, fish, and other wildlife. The area has a calm laid back vibe. We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 weeks in her sweet beach home! Make sure to grab a scallop burger "all the way" at Big Oak Drive in while you're there!

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

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.

Daniel's house was just perfect! It had that warm, cozy, beach vibe, just warm and inviting. Plenty of space for our group of 6. The home was clean and exactly as described. Everything we needed was there. Daniel even called before checking to let us know one of the remotes was not working and he was running out to replace it. I told him no need as we were not planning on watching any TV. He was going to make sure all was perfect. Highly recommend this perfect cozy cottage. The onsite driveway parking was a plus also.

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!

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!

Nice little country cottage.

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.

This home was beautifully set up and very comfortable. Such a quiet, peaceful neighborhood. Took a walk by the water multiple times. We would definitely stay here again!
