Perfect location - walk to downtown and the river, to coffee and restaurants. It’s in the historic district, so each home is more beautiful than the next in the neighborhood. The home is comfortable and clean and the host is friendly and helpful. We will definitely book again.

The home was beautiful. Street parking was a challenge. The beds were very firm and the closets were low - which was a challenge with bridesmaid dresses. But otherwise it was a beautiful home and a great access to the wedding venue we were attending.

This historic home is beautiful and walking distance to downtown Wilmington. The house is equipped with all essentials and some. The front porch and back porch is a great place to relax. It’s quiet and peaceful at all hours. The beds are comfortable and each room has an ac floor unit in case you are hot natured. The bathroom is a nice balance of southern and modern. The host was professional and responded quickly. Definitely would stay here again when I am back visiting family. Thank you.

The perfect stay!! The house was very roomy and perfect for allowing for small gatherings. UNCW graduation made this a perfect stay in location and the ability to gather family for celebration. Parking on the street was easily found. The decor of the house is charming. The outside was perfect for the dogs. The host was helpful and there are no complaints. Highly recommend!

Great location! Everything within walking distance. Very clean … beautiful old house. Our dog loved the great walks around downtown Wilmington and hanging out on the front porch. Really liked the portable dog fence for the porch. We would definitely come back to Church St.

We returned to Wilmington on a road trip because we liked the neighborhood around Front Street so much! The house did not disappoint. It was a beautiful home with really nice elegant features. It was easy to park on the street. We loved sitting on the back porch as spring season was just beginning.
