This home books for full weeks only during the prime season, and the turnover day is on Sunday. In the off-season, we can accommodate even two day stays! Please inquire :)

Please be aware this unit only accepts TWO car parking spaces. There is an area by the mailboxes where one other car can be parked. It is located outside the gate. But this space cannot be guaranteed.

This Tar Landing condo is the ideal family vacation home! Bring multiple families and friends to savor the breath-taking ocean vistas! Come sit on Papa Jim's front porch and have an ice-cold glass of sweet tea, or relax and appreciate the sunset with a glass of wine. The roomy & comfortable condo is outfitted with everything you will need while on vacation. Sunday to Sunday units only during the prime season of June, July, and August. Renters are allowed 2 cars only at the unit. There is NO overflow parking inside the gated community.

NO FAMILY PETS!!

As you enter into this handsome condo, on the left side you will see a bedroom with two twin day beds. A full bath connects with the next bedroom-which has three twin beds and a full bed. This area would be ideal for the kids to gather in. There is a tv in this room for the kids to enjoy. The washer and dryer are on this floor in a hallway closet, and across from the laundry is a closet with an additional refrigerator to keep cold drinks and additional food supplies.

Head upstairs to the second floor where you will find the elegant kitchen with chic granite counter-tops. The kitchen opens up directly to the living room and dining area, and from there head outside on the deck to see the spectacular view of the ocean. There is a tv in the main living room for family viewing. Just past the kitchen are a bar area and a full bath that leads into another bedroom. This bedroom has a queen bed and a set of bunk beds. Notice the private door that leads outside...

The top floor has two bedrooms, both with king-size beds. Each bedroom has it's own enormous bathroom with double vanities. *Bonus* there is an additional shower that joins both bathrooms together! Plenty of places for everybody to get cleaned up after the beach :) Both of these rooms have TVs to enjoy a little calming time.

This striking home is extremely close to Fort Macon’s State park. No boats, jet skis, trailers or campers or motorbikes are allowed at Tar Landing.

About the Area

North Carolina Maritime Museum and Core Sound Waterfowl Museum and Heritage Center are cultural highlights, and some of the area's attractions include North Carolina Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores and Professor Hacker's Lost Treasure Golf and Raceway.

Vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Finding your best deal:

  • June, July, and August are the most expensive months in the New Bern area. Booking your vacation rental in Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of suitable homes. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to book an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a New Bern vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday near the ocean? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at your favorite beach.
  • Reserve your vacation home as soon as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summer ends). Many groups book their Summer vacations during Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. Book before these holidays for best selection.
  • Some property managers offer special rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group.
  • Management companies and individual rental owners often offer renters an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for missed vacation time as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for more information.
  • Many management companies and vacation rental houses supply New Bern area visitor guide magazines which include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the property management company and the business itself. You can also find visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.

Finding the best vacation rental:

  • Choose vacation dates and budget.
  • Decide how many bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Papa Jim's Front Porch-Oceanview Condo, Community Pool, 2 min walk to Beach has 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rentals search.
  • Precise information regarding bedrooms and bed counts is almost always available on booking pages. If you don't see them listed, contact the property management company before you reserve the home. Note that most property listings specify the max. guest capacity, which frequently includes sofa beds.
  • Are you visiting for a specific attraction or event? Try a map search to find nearby rentals.
  • Proper accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. .
  • Traveling with pets? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Ask your property manager before booking, and study your rental agreement! Additional pet fees or costs applied to your invoice.

More tips for your visit:

  • Put the owner's information in your smartphone and wallet.
  • Upon check-in, document any issues with the property and immediately alert the property manager. Record all correspondence just in case a dispute arises.
  • Property managers are there to help! Don't be shy to ask any questions during your stay.
  • Respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
  • Don't forget to... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically point you in the right direction. Who better to ask where to launch your kayaks, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
  • Lock your rental property while you are out! Don't let thieves ruin your vacation.
  • Re-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed everything at departure. Remember to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
  • Inspect the rental a final time and look for any damage. We recommend walking through with the property manager whenever you can. If the manager is not available, remember to take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
  • Did you have a great stay? Most rental managers make it easy for travelers to provide feedback. If your rental and/or host was fantastic, they would love to hear about it. If anything was imperfect and they failed to address it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't described correctly, you'll want to make it a point as part of your review.
