Higgins Downtown Depot
Great location, within walking distance of all Tryon Palace and downtown main street. Top of the line counter top appliances. Nice fenced in backyard for kids to play in. Management service was extremely responsive to all questions and request. Upon arrival the toaster would not work, they had a new one delivered the next morning.

This is probably the best VRBO I stayed in years! Everything is top quality! Excellent.
Every detail has been thought of in the place.
I would recommend to everyone. There customer service it’s outstanding.

Great home and location
We stayed with friends at this home and really enjoyed the home and the location. We were able to walk everywhere we needed to and had comfortable living rooms and bedrooms. Just caution that as listed the bathroom upstairs does not have a stand-up shower, while it does have a shower handle for in the tub. All 4 adults and 4 kids shared the downstairs bathroom shower. Kitchen was fabulous and wonderfully supplied. Host was responsive for needs. Loved seeing the train go by, was not loud and enjoyed seeing it pass by. We will definitely consider this again next time we are in New Bern. Thanks!

Great location
House was as advertised and in good condition. Check in and check out were easy. It is really fun to learn about the history of the home. It has been renovated nicely. Be sure to make note of the bathroom situation when booking, however. There are 2 bathrooms in the home- one downstairs in the hall with a shower and one upstairs near all the bedrooms in the hall but with only a clawfoot bathtub. Otherwise, great location and everything went great. Will be staying there again

Great Location!
Charming, very clean, well-decorated house. A little quirky because it was built in the late 1800s (I think?). Some sloping floors, light switches in odd places in some rooms, etc. They have maintained a great deal of the original floor plan, doors, etc of the house, which we loved but definitely not an open floor plan! Plenty of space for six adults. Ideally would have loved for the third bedroom to have a queen-size bed instead of the twins as it was three couples and someone had to draw the short straw. We knew that was the situation but sacrificed for the location. Beds and linens were amazing. Would love to know the mattress brand but forgot to look. Thick duvets and lots of pillows.
Kitchen was well-stocked with every imaginable appliance. Open shelving so no hunting for what you need. Only not great thing is that the ice maker doesn't produce much ice and what is supposed to be cubes are mostly chips. So bring a bag of ice!
Regarding the light switches, definitely leave some lights on if you leave when it's daylight and plan on returning after dark. We had a hilarious time trying to find lights on our first night.
We really loved our stay there and will definitely be back again next year.
Good to know
