| The Magnolia Suite with its large magnolia tree outside the window pays tribute to the beautiful white blossoms that embody North Carolina's southern traditions of grace and sophistication. The room is one of the original upstairs bedrooms of the home and the second story of the front porch, which was enclosed years ago, now houses the romantic whirlpool bathroom to truly treat yourself. An ornate, four-post, canopy queen bed, antique Victorian settee, and mirrored artwork by the innkeeper Marty, make Magnolia uniquely special.

The Carolina Suite shares its name historically with the colony named after its sovereign King Charles II (his Latin name "Carolus") but also after the Steet-Ward home’s matriarch Carolina Ward. Originally the home's dining room, this spacious, ground floor suite features a king bed that can convert into twins. Room highlights include an ornate fireplace mantle and a large three-sided bay window, which overlooks the Attmore-Oliver House Museum. King Bed/Private Bathroom with Whirlpool Tub & Shower |

The Tuscarora Suite is named in recognition the ancestral native people who inhabited the peninsula, which later became New Bern. One of the home's three original upstairs bedrooms, this guest suite features an antique, Austrian king-sized bed, wide-planked wooden floors and elegant Oriental rug. A spacious sitting area centered around the room's Sheridan settee and fireplace mantle heightens the ambiance of the Tuscarora. King Bed/Private Bath with Whirlpool & Shower | 
| | | | The Kennebec Room was one of the three original upstairs bedrooms in the home. It is named after the current innkeepers' first bed and breakfast in Long Beach, California, which housed the stunningly carved four-post king, laced canopy bed now in this room. The antique Empire walnut chest was an heirloom piece from the Ward family and beautifully complements the bed. The handsome, bright and airy three-sided bay window beckons you to sit, relax, and enjoy your step back into the elegance, charm and romance of the late nineteenth century.

| | | | The Basin Street Room. When Samuel Street built his home c. 1882, this cozy room was the upstairs bath, kept comfortable by the fireplace, decoratively in place today. The name refers to the room's original purpose (Basin) and owner (Street) and also to New Orleans' famed promenade where the current innkeepers enjoyed their honeymoon. Stylish artwork depicting the French Quarter lends sophisticated charm to this quaint room with a pencil-post queen bed. Queen Bed/Private Bath w/ shower | 
| | | | The Duck Inn Room, was the room of Mary Ward whose family purchased the residence from Samuel Street. Mary Ward lived in the home her entire life (1900-1979) and during her later years, she divided the house into several apartments, renting them out during World War II. In fact, the current door to the room was once a closet and now guests over six foot may need to 'duck' their heads to enter a room with an eleven foot ceiling! Tasteful appointments and refined decorative treatments make this quaint, warm-hued room one of our most popular. Queen Bed/Private Bath with Tub & Shower |
