Our neighborhood
Wilmington is the 8th biggest city in North Carolina. Wilmington has suburban and urban neighborhoods. This is an authentic urban neighborhood with a mix of longtime residents, newer residents, local businesses, and ongoing revitalization. Because of our proximity to downtown Wilmington in the Castle Street district, you’ll experience the energy of an urban neighborhood, including occasional pedestrian and street activity. We provide sound machines in both bedrooms for a comfortable night’s sleep.

The Castle Street District is an up-and-coming, inclusive, and diverse neighborhood with a lot of character & local businesses that our guests love to visit! Spend the morning at Wrightsville Beach, then come back to Castle Street for dinner and drinks — without paying beach-town prices.

Early check-in
We keep our cleaning fee low by doing laundry on-site between stays. Standard check-in is 4 PM and checkout is 11 AM. We offer early check-in and/or late-checkout for $35.

Great Stay Close to Wilmington Downtown & Cargo District

We stayed here 4 nights and were very pleased with the house. The only thing that would have made it perfect was a dedicated driveway but that's just not how the property is set up. Not a problem as we were able to park right in front of the house on the street. The area was quiet despite being on a fairly busy street. The house was immaculate and clean. Beds were excellent in both rooms. Space was comforatble for 4 adults. The owner has everything labeled and sends lots of tips about the house and the area. Communication was very prompt! Also, I had to work some while I was there and the internet speed was more than adequate.We were about a 1 mile walk from downtown and about 3/4 mile walk from the Cargo District. The walks were easy and for the most part and we felt safe walking to restaurants and attractions.I highly recommend this house and this owner. It turned out to be very affordable comapred to staying right in or adjacent to the downtown area. Thanks for a great and comfy house in a convenient area.
