The house was clean and comfortable with great views of the canal from the windows. Rooms were comfy. We had a great time fishing off the dock. The host of this property is very responsive. He returned our calls quickly and he checked to make sure that everything was in order when we arrived. Beautiful neighborhood, quiet location

Our stay was exactly as hoped for, quiet rural waterfront property, family friendly and very relaxing. Marty stayed in touch & helped with a small issue, making sure we were happy! We were, thanks so much...loved & would definitely recommend!

Property was excellent for a quiet family get away. We enjoyed the seclusion of the area and the peaceful neighborhood. New Bern downtown shopping was great and so many fine places to enjoy a meal. Looking forward to returning sometime with my husband and bringing our boat to explore the rivers. The owner took the time to call before we arrived to let us know about a repair earlier in the week concerning a spot in the yard and was very nice to make sure we knew everything was ok.

Our time at Anchors Away was great..... A lot of room to spread out for sure. The water was the best view whether on the deck, in the house or on the dock. Check in was easy. We liked the area where the house is at, To get to anything you have to drive to but we didn't mind because it is worth the drive to see new things. When we had questions or needed to know something the owner was quick to respond and talk with. Happy Vacationers who stayed July 1st to July 6, 2023!!!

Our family had a great stay at this house. The house was perfect for our two families to have their own space and the kitchen is a great size for us to work together making meals. The kayaks and canoe were our favorite part, with a quiet spot on the river to paddle atound and meet wildlife. Overall an amazing getaway!

Loved having kayaks to explore and spending time on the dock. House was well- equipped and comfortable.

I gave 4 stars instead of 5 (for accuracy of online listing) because the owners are selling themselves short on all this house has to offer. Please add more pictures of the dock, the deck and barbecue, the bathrooms, the laundry, the large kitchen, the many expansive rooms, the kayaks, the turtles coming up to say hello, the jumping fish (if you can get a good shot of them). There were four in our party and we had plenty of space, whether we wanted to be in the same room or separate ourselves for alone times. The wifi is a solid and dependable 10Mbps DSL. The grill is easy to use. We kayaked to the Trent River (more life jackets would be helpful as well as a stabilizing bar to lower yourself into the kayak). We sat on the dock, amused by the fish that would leap out of the water for six feet at at a time, often multiple jumps that took them halfway across the pond. We fed cheerios to the turtles (I hope that's okay). The neighborhood is quiet, good for walking and biking. When we had questions (which were few), the owners were very responsive. The only reason we would not return is that we typically never stay at the same place twice, because we like try different venues and a variety of accommodations in our retirement years. But I highly recommend this property. We had a very nice and relaxing time.

My family and I really enjoyed this property. Working with the owner was east and helpful. Quiet neighborhood. Close to tourist areas.
