Sail Inn

New Bern, North Carolina.

"A simple inn reflecting a quieter time." Sail on in to the Sail Inn, where we strive to provide an intimate personal setting for our overnight guests in a quaint, historic home.

Bed and Breakfast Description

The Sail-Inn is located in downtown historic New Bern, NC, conveniently located within walking distance of the town’s many beautiful attractions and activities.

Deed records and architectural evidence indicate that the early house was built about 1815, probably for Kezziah Chadwick and James Sawyer as a result of their marriage in August of 1814. The small gable-roofed Federal period house was enlarged to its present form by the addition of a side stair hall at the east, a full second story, and the present low-hipped roof. The present exterior appearance of the Kezziah Sawyer house is entirely the product of its ca. 1895 remodelling.
