Sweet place! I walked in and the old wood smell reminded me of my Grandmother’s house when I was a little girl. Adequately appointed - comfortable and relaxing. We loved being able to walk to the shops, restaurants and especially the waterfront! The only things I can think of that would have made it even better would be more porch type furniture (rocking chairs rather than straight back chairs), a gas grill and firmer mattresses. Overall we had a wonderful visit to sweet Edenton and the surrounding areas! PLUS! Be sure to take the trolly tour and the boat tour - so much interesting history - I could have walked around that sweet little town forever after seeing it all!

For the area, the house fits right in. This also means an older home. Many of the spaces are smaller such as the stairs and restrooms. Overall, this was a pleasant stay with friendly neighbors.

My daughter and I spent a four-day weekend in Edenton at the Southern Porch Charmer which was a house from1920. The inside was beautiful and it was within walking distance to the lighthouse. There is a beautiful park by the lighthouse and it has a really nice playground for children and plenty of benches to just relax by the water. We ate dinner at a couple of different pubs and the food was good. Saturday night we ate at a small, brand new, Italian Restaurant called Carozza's on S. Broad St. and we had the best Eggplant Parmesan I have ever tasted and I am Italian. Sunday morning the only place open for breakfast was a small diner on South Broad St. so we ate there and the food was good and everyone was very pleasant. We would definitely recommend taking the trolley ride because we were told about all of the historic houses in the Town. Would highly recommend a trip to Edenton.

Weekend stay

There were some problems when we arrived. Blown fuse, appliances not working and downstairs plumbing issues in the bathroom. The owners responded quickly and fixed all except the plumbing because it was the weekend and a plumber was unavailable. So that’s not on the owner. The home was in a great location. Easy to walk downtown.
