Come relax at one of the most special condos in New Bern. This corner 2 BR/ 2 BA unit has balconies facing the marina that are prime for calming. The side balcony that faces the fishing pier and kayak launch is a shady spot for dining.

Just 20 mins. from the airport and downtown New Bern, this sailboat and golf community is a jewel. We are a short 1 hr 15 mins from Atlantic Beach and the NC Aquarium. The striking town of Oriental is only 40 mins away.

The space
We created this space to be a relaxing hideaway. It is the kind of place where you will appreciate doing tons of interesting things or just doing nothing. Read a book in the balcony breezes, swim at the pool, walk around historic downtown New Bern, fish, golf, or stay in and work from "home." Everything is better here!

Guest access
Guests have access to the entire condo. They also have access to the Rec Center amenities and need to call them directly to schedule. Access may be limited due to Covid. Community activities include putt putt, tennis, basketball, golf, swimming, gym, kayak & bicycle rental plus great running trails.

Other things to note
There is a modest boat ramp, kayak launch space and fishing pier next to our building. A bigger boat ramp is located just mins. away via a different street in our community. Guests are welcome to use these. If you plan to bring a boat please let us know in advance so we can obtain a Boat Ramp Pass for you. Kayaks, fishing poles and canoes can be rented from Stillwater Kayaks (a 5 min walk).

Tips and Tricks to get the perfect vacation property experience:

How to get the best rental value:

• Booking a rental in the Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of acceptable homes.
• The earlier you can reserve a vacation rental, the easier your search will be. The most desirable rental homes are reserved early. Booking your vacation home 6-12 months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to plan and reserve your rental property.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a reduced rate.
• Management companies and individual rental owners usually offer renters an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which normally will cost between 1% - 5% of the stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed days as a result of personal medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great local stories, travel guide magazines have discounts for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

How to choose and book your Morehead City vacation home:

• Choose a designated group leader, select your dates, and select a max budget.
• Decide how many beds and what type of bedroom configuration your family requires. River's Edge has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking websites. If they are not listed, contact the property management company before you book your home. Remember that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
• Are you looking for unique amenities? Most rental search websites include search filters with amenity lists. Use these filters to your advantage to find the perfect rental home.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental.
• If your family is traveling with pets, you must reserve a pet-friendly vacation rental. Make sure to ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Be aware that some hosts charge pet deposits and fees.

Additional considerations:

• We recommend storing the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• At Check-in, make note of any issues with the rental property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all coorespondence.
• Ask questions. You may need instructions for a hot tub, television set or coffee maker. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief text message can prevent a lot of difficulties.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay more pleasurable. You will enhance your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors can be a terrific resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Local residents can often point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to find the fresh catch of the day, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Lock your rental while you're out. Protect your property!
• Re-check the property to confirm that you've packed all of your family's items at departure. Remember to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on great ratings to propel more reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will will be grateful for your experience find their best vacation home. Remember to be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
