Pet Agreement
We love our dog and are pleased to allow you to bring yours, if he/she is
well behaved. Our preference is not to allow dogs on the furnishings. We recognize this can be a difficult request, so we offer a compromise. If you have a dog that is accustomed to getting on furniture, please bring a protective blanket to
help protect the furniture.

I agree that my dog is up to date on all vaccinations and that he/she are on a flea/tick preventive.
I agree to provide my own dog bed and supplies.
I agree to pay a $200 fine if I leave my dog unattended and they cause a disturbance.
I agree to pay for additional cleaning, repair or replacement of any items damaged by my dog. The fear and separation anxiety experienced by many dogs left unattended can result in barking/howling and destruction of flooring and door
frames. Please know your dog and do not leave him/her alone in the house, uncrated, if this is a possibility.
I agree to always pick up after my dog.
I agree to keep my dog on a leash always held by me or a responsible individual when outside—and I will remove the leash from my dog only while he/she is at the dog park, or within the confines of the house. I also agree to keep my dog close to me when other people/dogs are around

We really enjoyed our stay at Drakes Cove. The house was very clean and had everything you could possibly need. We would definitely rent here again!
This is the second time we have stayed in this house. The location is perfect for our activities. Check-in and communication with the owner was great. People need to realize that the living area is on the second floor, so if stairs are an issue, you need to think about it. For us, it was great and we would stay there again.
Everything worked Family very happy Very lmpressied
Comfortable with many amenities. The house was very clean. I did do a lot of cooking and the kitchen was well supplied with everything I needed. We would stay here again.
Highly recommended - great location, well appointed, and great host!
We had a WONDERFUL time on vacation! Fairfield Harbor is a great community that offers something for every age group. My kids range in age from almost 17-4, and they all had a great time! Fairfield Harbor has a golf course, 2 outdoor pools, 1 indoor pool, mini golf, pickle ball, basketball, 2 playgrounds and much more! The house was as pictured, was very clean, and Jacqueline was very prompt to respond to my questions. We definitely would return!
The house was in a nice location and was so clean and well stocked. It was a beautiful home. It had plenty of places to sit outside and enjoy the scenery too. Loved it!
Great location, great place. Just needed one more bathroom.
Overall property was amazing our kids loved fishing from the back yard. We all had plenty of room, the house was stocked with everything you could possibly need including board games. The host were very responsive and were great to work with.
Highly recommend. Very nice accommodations in a very nice community conveniently located 10 minutes from New Bern, NC.
Beautiful home on waterfront near New Bern. Host was very accommodating and had everything you would need.
While the property is gorgeous, clean and located in a quiet and friendly community - it's the attention to every little detail that made our stay exceptional! Delightful signs with instructions for anything that could possibly come up during our stay and wifi password. Swift and friendly communication with the host. Beautiful view of the dock and large living spaces and decks. From excellent water pressure in the showers to a kitchen fully stocked with everything (but the food) to enjoy a meal with family and friends, this place was better than staying in a hotel! We're already planning our next stay.
Absolutely everything is thought of for the best trouble free stay. The communications with this very gracious host was flawless and will rate overall 10 out of 10.
I have given our thoughts to the host/iwner
The home was roomy and clean. All the little details were considered including provided games and toiletries. Back yard leads to private dock for your boat. Everyone loved the house and enjoyed their stay. We even got to access the clubhouse, and some enjoyed the indoor heated pool on a chilly day and mini golf. The host was very polite and ensured all are requests were fulfilled. We definitely would stay again.
From our first look at the pictures of this house to the final contact with Jacquie, my friends and I were very impressed! The house was exactly as described and seen in pictures. Jacquie is the quintessential hostess - every light switch, cupboard and drawer was labeled for our ease in finding things. There was a basketful of snacks left for us to enjoy. There were night lights in almost every room and each closet was fully stocked with hangars. It may sound trivial but these were the attentions to detail that put the icing on the cake for us. Thank you so much Jacquie! We hope to return again!!
House was spacious, clean, kitchen was well organized with labels on cabinets and drawers and right on a canal. Loved having our morning coffee sitting out back enjoying the water. Days were spent golfing, taking advantage of the community pool and day trips to Atlantic Beach and Emerald Isle. At night we took advantage of the great restaurants in downtown New Bern. House has a great location and we will be back!!
Lovely immaculate home exactly as described. Communication with the owner was quick and easy. The layout of the house was perfect for our family of 9. Loved having all the kitchen cabinets labeled.
We really enjoyed our time at drakes cove in New Bern. Great location to take in the city, eateries and Harkers Island. Plenty of room for our large group with areas to separate when we needed the space. Very clean and well stocked!
Place is amazing will definitely be back!
This was a very clean and comfortable property with plenty of room to spread out. What a joy to sit out on the back deck for a morning sip of coffee or an afternoon of relaxation. We were happy with the location because of a great golf course right across the entrance. But a comfortable distance from the heart of New Bern. Jacqueline was easy to communicate with and responded to any questions we had immediately. We would definitely plan to stay here again.
We went to New Bern to celebrate a family birthday. Drake's Cove was the perfect house for us! The back yard provided a beautiful view while enjoying happy hours and corn hole. It has plenty of seating for great gatherings outside. The large deck was perfect for easy access and great views :=) The house is nicely equipped with spacious bedrooms (we had 6) and a great family room / eating area. The huge table was perfect for game playing. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you would need to include a great variety of snacks. The location was great to get to New Bern and other area attractions. Jacquie was a fantastic host to work with, she replied very quickly to any questions I had prior to arrival. I would highly recommend Drake's Cove and Jacquie, it was the perfect accomodation for us.
