About this property
Cozy riverfront cottage with an amazing view, minutes from downtown New Bern.
We hope you’ll enjoy the amazing views, frequent breeze, unforgettable sunsets and quick drive to downtown New Bern as much as we do. Nestled waterfront in quiet Bridgeton, across the water from New Bern, you can enjoy the river while taking in the view of the New Bern waterfront from the sun room, living room, open deck, screened in porch or yard. There is a free NC Wildlife boat ramp just minutes away for boat launching and Bridgeton has a nice waterfront park that is a short walk away with a kid’s play structure, picnic area and open recreation field.
Guests are more than welcome to enjoy the dock! There are gray, plastic Adirondack chairs located next to the back deck steps that can be taken onto the dock. Please do not leave them unattended, as the wind has a tendency to blow things into the water. The boat lift pictured is not available for guest use and a boat (also not for guest use) will be present on the lift during most stays as will a sailboat in the wet slip. Please do not board the boats. There is currently no ladder into or out of the river.
We currently do not allow pets on property or smoking (or vaping) in the home. In order to help safeguard the property (and keep on eye on weather conditions) we have two security cameras present- one at the front door (a doorbell camera), and one facing the waterfront. The cameras are strictly for security purposes and do not record continuously.
Please note, our cleaner's rate structure varies by number of guests (linens) as do operating expenses (utilities). To be as fair as possible to couples and small families, our nightly charge and cleaning charge reflects six or fewer occupants but we welcome larger groups of up to ten. To help account for the difference in our expenses, the rental structure includes a $10 per night, per guest charge for each guest over six to offset the higher utilities and cleaning fees we must pay.

We travelled here for a week as a family with several younger children and really enjoyed our stay! The house had plenty of space for us, had a wonderful kitchen, and we also enjoyed the access to the river right at the back yard. It made for very relaxing afternoons, and the perfect place to watch the sunset at the end of the day.
Great riverfront cottage with a nice view of New Bern! Very clean and stocked with everything we needed and then some! Very convenient, short drive over to New Bern. Thanks for hosting us, we had a great time and definitely would love to return!

Thank you for the wonderful words! We’re so glad you enjoyed your trip and your time at our cottage. We hope you can return😊
This has been one of the best vrbo’s that I have stayed. The home was exceptionally clean and anything you would need is there. The views are exceptional and the screened in porch and sunroom were fantastic. I look forward to another relaxing trip in the future. I had one small question and Susan replied very quickly. The pictures on website are completely accurate.

Our family enjoyed our visit to Bridgeton and surrounding areas. The check in process was painless. Everything was just as shown in the photos. The home was beautiful and enjoyed the dock for fishing and relaxing. Would love to revisit.

This was our second stay here and it was every bit as good as the first. Great location right on the water and close to downtown New Bern, clean as a whistle, quiet and well equipped. We'll be back next year!

Property offered everything we were looking for. A place to call home for the weekend, directly on the water and close enough to the city with plenty of shopping and great places to eat.

Extremely clean, nicely decorated, every drawer and cabinet shelf labeled so you know where everything goes. Loved that! Foodie kitchen with all the gadgets. Loved the screened in porch with fan. The hosts have put a lot of thought into this place and it shows the love. Would definitely recommend this place, you can’t go wrong. 5 stars!

Thank you for the glowing review😊We love that you loved the house and that it had everything you needed for a great trip!
Oh, my word!! I cannot emphasize enough the quality of this Vrbo vacation spot! From start to finish, Susan did everything you could hope for to ensure a wonderful place to stay. Communication was thorough and the entrance and location were well explained and easy. The home is BEAUTIFUL! It was clean, it smelled great, and everything was so organized. We had more than you could possibly need for supplies also. And the view from the porch was heavenly! Thank you, we all hope to be back!

The house is very clean and awesome and very well stocked! I loved the large open-floor plan and the two patios (one screened and one open) right on the waterfront! We spent 10 nights there and hated to leave! The owners are awesome and very easy to work with! I'd recommend this cozy cottage to all my friends who are traveling to New Bern! The sunsets and beautiful and the view is absolutely amazing!
We had a great weekend! Views were amazing. We visited Aurora and looked for sharks teeth then did a little fishing from the dock.

This is a beautiful waterfront property with updated features and great waterfront views. The house was impeccably clean and welcoming. The house is very spacious. My entire family enjoyed their stay. We would definitely stay here again.
