The Quiet Carriage house was crafted from reclaimed and repurposed materials. When staying at the Carriage House, the beach and Wilmingtons' attractions are yours for the taking. If you are boycotting another short term rental platform, the host sympathizes and offers a rental option here on VRBO. Guests often remark that it is like living in a tranquil treehouse. The high ceiling, artistic quirkiness and natural light are complimented by the mild and generous Carolina Blue Skies. A guest hot tub and fire pit enhance the gentle cooler months and the beach and Downtown Riverwalk are just a short drive away. The ever blooming and expanding garden is open for enjoyment and herbs are there for the picking. Wilmington offers excellent dining experiences. Outdoor adventures, both on land and water, abound and the local Ghost Tour's focus on so much local history while digging up the past! Historic sites, leisurely neighborhood walks, bird watching, farmers market, local coffee shops, brewery's and lots of place to shop and visit, provide entertainment and quality of life. Wilmington is perfect all year round. Inclement weather is very rare. The Carriage House is located in the Princess Place Neighborhood, next to Burnt Mill Creek -a bird watchers paradise. It is 1.5 miles to Downtown Wilmington and the Riverwalk and 7 miles to the Beach. Snowbirds and travel nomads know that Wilmington is wonderful year round. The Carriage house is perfect for business travelers and has high speed internet and is in close to the airport ILM (2 miles), which offers direct flights 10+ major cities and is serviced by several major airlines including American, United and Delta.
There is a comfortable king size bed in the bedroom. The sofa in the living room will fold down to a twin size bed with a memory foam topper for sleeping comfort. I will make up the sofa bed for you, so let me know if you plan to use it. There is one bathroom with a shower. The kitchen has a stove and oven, microwave, refrigerator, a NINJA Duo coffee maker which makes either a pot or Keurig cup serving (a cafe press is available upon request). There is also an electric tea kettle. Essentially, you have a separate one bedroom apartment with a kitchen-and open living area with a back deck and a screened porch at the entry. The Carriage House is ideal for a couple or for two friends visiting Wilmington. I do allow extra occupancy for one child (18 years or younger) accompanying a parental unit. 2 small children under 6 would also be acceptable. A small dog would be welcome, if kept on a leash in the yard, until successfully introduced to my cats and dog.
There is a deck, equipped with a sun awning, 2 rockers and a bistro table. the deck looks out over the backyard and fire pit. There is a screened front porch with a sofa and privacy screen for morning coffee, evening card games or a nice chat on the phone with a family member or friend, al fresco.
A 4 man hot tub for guests in the garden. You can see it outside your living room window . In the summer, the hot tub area will be screened in for your comfort. A fire pit in the backyard adds to the seasonal ambiance of Fall and Winter in a temperate climate or just to enjoy while roasting marshmallows. Beach Chairs, towels, boogie boards and an umbrella are provided for beach excursions.
