Weekend at New Bernies was a clean and comfortable place for our family to relax and reconnect. The location is beautiful and well worth the adventure down the bumpy dirt road to get there. The hosts supply kayaks and accessories, yard and board games, fishing gear, and comfy chairs to enjoy the view. WiFi was spoty but plenty of better entertainment options. My biggest complaint was Weekend at Bernie’s was not included in the DVD collection ! Thank you for a wonderful vacation experience, hope we are able to visit again.

Beautiful property. We had a great time and hated leaving. There was beautiful sunsets every night and we loved sitting on the dock watching them. The wifi was a little bit spotty at times, but was fine. We loved that it was in a secluded area with lots of privacy. The kayaks and paddleboat were very fun and we took them out pretty often. Overall, it was an amazing place that we want to come back to one day!

very nice

This property has amazing river views but is 5.5 miles off the paved road. The dirt road has been graded but has many ruts and waterholes (after it rains). It took about 25-30 minutes to get back to the house or back out to the paved road. If you are in an old vehicle you could probably go a little faster but it still takes a while to reach the property. The house has some updates (stainless appliances) but could have used a thorough cleaning. The kitchen chair pads were stained and needed cleaning or to be replaced. Bathrooms had newer toilets and were clean. The king bed linens were fine and the bed was comfortable. There was a nice screened-in porch with string light but no switch to turn them on. There were two spotlights on the corner of the garage that stayed on 24/7. They were right outside the king bedroom and shined through the blinds making it difficult to sleep. The yard has a wonderful view but the old flower beds had lots of weeds growing up. We went out to sit at the rod iron table set in the yard and one of the chairs was broken and almost laid all the way back. It was further from downtown New Bern than expected. We adjusted our schedule to only come and go once daily to avoid the extended drive in and out. We elected to to leave a day early to avoid the long drive in an out. A little bit of elbow grease and TLC would make this property spectacular.
