All I knew was that this place was literally between two of my sons who are in the Marine Corps. We wanted to go to welcome home one from deployment and celebrate the other’s 25th birthday!!! Could not have asked for a better location!!!! Secluded but still close to grocery stores. The Best way to celebrate the above and also an Easter Egg hunt for the grandkids!! Definitely will stay here again!!!!

Cute country stay

The pictures dont do it justice. 3bed 1 bath in the country on a dead end drive thats private. Everything was maintained & very clean. 10-15 mins away from new bern, 25 mins from Jacksonville and like roughly an hour to atlantic beach/ emerald isle. I would come back again. The owners were great and even had travel sized items .

Relaxing Getaway

Country Home is a very appropriate name for this lovely vacation rental. Everything is exactly as described. The home is very spacious. The pictures do not do it justice. The Host go to extra measures to make sure you’re comfortable and have everything you need. We had such a relaxing time. We were in the area for a race at a local racetrack and this gave us an opportunity to get away and unwind between practice and race day. During the entire booking and stay Mike and Cheryl were always available to answer any questions we had. Unfortunately we only race here once a year, but hopefully we’ll be back here for next years race!

Nice and relaxing.

We stayed for just 1 night and had to leave because we had a family emergency and had to turn right back around and make a 10 hour drive back home. In the 12 hours we were there i can say the following: The home was very clean, stocked with everything you would need to cook/clean/bathe etc. There are 3 bedrooms. We only used 2 bedrooms and the beds were comfy. There were no creepy crawly critters in the home at all as it is very well taken care of. I wish we would have been able to complete our stay and enjoy it. Thank you. Thank you for your hospitality. It was appreciated.

Overall a truly charming and quaint country experience. A serene setting made it an ideal destination for a relaxing getaway.

Great Getaway - All Essentials Provided

I was very impressed with all the little details. All essentials were provided. You literally just need your clothes and food! The owners will get you started your first night there with laundry and dish detergent, 2 toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, a bag of ice, and even a dozen local eggs! Loved that they even had charcoal and a lighter. Air conditioning was great and the house was extremely clean. Games provided and DVDs, as the satellite is in and out on most channels. However, DVDs were perfect for the little time we had in the evening. I would suggest a tankless hot water heater to the owners if you find larger groups staying at the house consistently. We had 4 adults and knew not to be too long in the shower or to run the washer concurrently. A rooster could be heard on the screened in porch and the street provides a nice little walk. I would definitely stay again and the other 3 in our party agreed.
