My home is a cute 3 bed 2 bath on deep water Brices Creek, ideal for swimming, boating, fishing and this property has its own Private Beach! Only six minutes to Historic Downtown New Bern. Located on a quiet large private wooded lot with huge views over well known Brices Creek. Bring all of your water toys as there is a boat ramp a quarter of a mile away! While you launch your boat, jet ski or kayak please enjoy Merchants Grocery famous cheeseburger or stop by early for a hearty breakfast. At night you can head into downtown for a seafood dinner or stay at home and relax on the forty foot back porch with incredible views over the creek. Watch the wildlife from the SHARED private dock and if you are extremely lucky you could see a dolphin swim by! Don t forget to bring your fishing rod for some excellent bass, crappie, brim, striper or catfishing. You also have use of a SHARED dock that is behind The Grey Goose (off to the side of the property not directly behind the house) used by two rental cabins that are on the other side of this 1.3 acre property. DOCK ACCESS CLOSES AT 9:00 P.M. OR DARK WHICHEVER COMES EARLIEST EXCEPT FOR GREY GOOSE RENTERS. QUIET HOURS ARE FROM 9:00 P.M. TO 8:00 A.M. PLEASE RESPECT OTHER GUESTS.

Great place.

The place was clean and in a great location for our needs. We needed something close to downtown New Bern and the Gray Goose fit the bill. We would definitely stay here again. Plenty of room for 6 adults and a dog. Beautiful location on the river.

Family Staycation

My family (husband & 3 kiddos) enjoyed our stay. We took the kids out on the water and fished a little. The beds were comfortable and the home was clean. The driveway is well marked and easy to find. We plan to be back.

Wonderful

We had such a great time. We had everything we needed. The only down fall of our stay was that the fish just weren’t biting. Communication with Jeff was outstanding. Thank you and we hope to return to the area again

Thank you so much for the excellent review. I will do my best to make sure the fish are biting when you return. Not that much I can do. But in our area for some reason crickets are the best bait you can have. Next time you come into town and stay I will buy you some crickets. Thanks, Jeff

AMAZING stay for our wedding party!

Man oh man I cannot say enough good things about this property. We just recently got married at Amelia Grove, right down the road from the Grey Goose. My husband and a few of his groomsmen stayed at this house, and it was the PERFECT place for them and honestly anyone looking to stay close to property for their wedding. They raved about the beach and back porch, and just had the best time. This is also where all his groomsmen got ready for the wedding and hungout before the ceremony, and it could not have been more convenient. I could not recommend this place more.

Excellent and Beautiful Cottage

This was one of the most absolute perfect properties we have stayed in. It was AMAZING!!! The interior was so comfortable providing open views to the water. The balcony was so wide and open allowing gorgeous views of the water and fish literally jumping all around. Jeff was outstanding and responded immediately. A+++ all the way around.🤗

Relaxing Get Away

Jeff was fantastic to work with, very responsive. At first sight, you may not think this property is all you signed up for. But then you open the door to a gorgeous get away with a stunning view of the lake. Comfortable beds, clean, fully equipped kitchen and plenty of kayaks for the whole family. Our only regret is we didn't stay longer.

Great stay!!

This was a great house! Check in was super easy. Everything was clean and organized when we arrived. There was plenty of space for everyone. We LOVED the deck and the beach in front of the house. We spent one whole day playing in the water. It was perfect! We would definitely stay again! A small issue arose (something we did, nothing wrong with the house or amenities) and the owner was super friendly and accommodating in a way I feel like you don't see nowadays! We were super close to everything we needed in town! Great stay all around!

Great location

A little pricey for me, and the house itself I would rate as funky but chic, but its right on the creek with beautiful views and a short drive to town. Eagles flying about. Kayaks, etc. Should have brought my boat but its 800 miles to where i live. We went in late March, would be great in the warm months. I give it a 4 out of 5. Do it.
