Nice property

It was perfect for what we needed. It’s a nice property and had plenty of room for two couples and two young children. We were there for a celebration in Bridgeton so location was perfect for us, but also very convenient to get into New Bern.

Family gather to celebrate granddaughter graduation

We loved our stay at the BREATHE INN. Such a wonderful neighborhood. People were very friendly and we enjoyed our walk’s throughout the area. Beautiful sunsets and early morning coffee on the deck was lovely. Easy access to getting to New Bern and ocean beaches made this a perfect quiet setting. Thank you Megan for being such a great host.

Thankful for sunsets on the river

We spent our Thanksgiving holiday here and really enjoyed the place. The kitchen had everything we would need to prepare the holiday feast. The WiFi was dependable for the work zooms we had. The beds, linens, and towels were all high quality. And of course the location, seeing the sunsets on the river was an added bonus. Megan was a great host.

Priceless Sunsets!

We loved Breathe Inn so much the first time we just returned again for 5 days. This home is well appointed and perfectly located to enjoy all the sites and historic areas of New Bern, NC. We couldn’t get enough of the spectacular sunsets over the Neuse River with the historic New Bern lights glistening in the horizon. The host is so responsive and easy to work with. Bottom line is we loved everything about it! We will return again soon for an even longer stay.
