About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

High Tide Historic Duplex

This amazing historic home is where we live and yours to enjoy. Your part is the entire first floor of this converted Duplex. You have your own entrance and plenty of privacy so relax and find out why we love it! Convenient parking and no need for an Uber or your car. This unique and cheerful space is perfect for travelers looking for a place that has its own character and charm. Our space is also kid-friendly and great for families.

This is the first floor of an amazing historic downtown home. Many homes in this neighborhood are historic housed converted to Duplexes. We love walking around and checking out the other houses! We live upstairs and you'll have the whole first floor to yourself. We usually come and go by the back door so, the front and your back door are used solely entirely by you.

We fell in love with this house because of the gorgeous hardwood floors, woodwork, high ceilings, and turn-of-the-century charm. A stocked kitchen and dining room table for meals, front and back decks, easy street parking, a large living room with two couches, comfortable beds, and the bathroom has a cute clawfoot bathtub. You have the entire place to yourself. Enjoy your morning cup of coffee on the porch swing or walk to Bespoke coffee and peaceful downtown Wilmington for breakfast.

It's a great old house and it's a wood house. You're going to hear us walking around and sometimes even being a little loud with a friend or two (at reasonable hours of course). You'll hear us get up in the morning and get our son ready for school at 6:30am. If you're a really light sleeper or hate mornings, you might not want to book this place. Although we have a no partying rule, we understand that you're on vacation and you may make some noise or come home late after walking downtown. It's ok, just enjoy yourself. If you're too noisy, we'll just message you and ask you too tone it down. You can do the same for us. Just be happy!

This great old house has a front and back porch on both the first and second floor! We enjoy relaxing on the second floor porches so the first floor is mostly yours to use anytime. Lots of our guests love swinging on the porch swing and enjoying the mornings. We love that they love it!

Please do not use the driveway. It's just a tiny driveway between two houses and barely fits a car. We park in the back and there are not any extra spaces there. However, there is a ton of free street parking and, unless there is a major festival, you will never have any trouble finding a spot right in front of the house. Note: The neighbor in the green and yellow house next door is really sensitive about people parking in front of his house. Please help us keep the neighborhood happy and park anywhere but in front of the green and yellow neighbors house.

We are here if you need us, invisible if you don't. You can check in anytime with the keypad lock and start relaxing! We'll likely text you during your stay to let you know we are available. If I don't hear from you, we will assume you're happy!

We chose this house because of its awesome historic charm and its location is the best. It's a neighborhood right in downtown. All the houses are nice and so is this one. You're going to love it! Just a short walk to downtown, restaurants, bars, entertainment, the riverfront, museums, historic tours.

Beautiful downtown Wilmington. See tons of gorgeous homes as you walk around the neighborhood the scenery is amazing.

You can walk pretty much everywhere, this is a prime location.
We are 15 minutes to the beaches and a 5 min walk to the river walk. We're on Princess street so a strait walk, 4 blocks will get you directly in the center of Downtown Wilmington.

We have a self check in process that is easy and convenient. We provide a code on your arrival date for the keypad on the door as well as your private entrance.

This is an old house and for some, that's part of the charm. We have proudly renovated and decorated it, and kept its original fixtures when possible. If you like old houses, wood floors, cool lights and light switches, this is your jam. If you see older houses as ugly and cumbersome, this is not your place- please feel free to check out some of our more modern listings.

You will find some water and snacks when you arrive.

The TV is a Roku TV. You can log into your favorite subscriptions and enjoy your favorites channels from home.

Checkout: Checkout is 11am, but we can offer late checkout as availability allows. 12pm checkout is $20, and 1pm checkout is $30. Please contact us first and if we can accommodate your late checkout, we will be happy to.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Great stay!

We were in town for the Azalea Festival. The High Tide was in a great location for walking to the Riverwalk and a convenient drive to the home and garden tour. The house was comfortable, quiet and well maintained. The air condition was strong and the beds were comfortable. The tub is a clawfoot tub that has been converted to a shower. The shower worked great with good water pressure but if you have elderly with you, that have difficulty stepping high out of the shower without a grab bar, you might want to consider this challenge. We had a great stay and highly recommend the High Tide Duplex.

Beautiful Spring Stay!

My teen daughter and her friend and I enjoyed our two-night stay. Beautiful property, easy parking, easy walk to lots of stores and restaurants. Was surprised there were no plates, but that was minor. Beautiful historic home with great amenities.

Quaint old home

We had a great stay. The house was a quaint old home with a lot of character. It's nicely decorated with comfortable furniture and was impeccably clean. It's in a nice, quiet neighborhood that's close enough to walk to the Riverwalk and all that it has to offer. The hosts included some thoughtful touches such as small snacks, K-cups, toiletries and extra trash bags and paper products,. The kitchen is basic but clean and has everything you need. The parking in front of the house was always available. Check in and out was very easy. If we ever make our way back to Willmington we would be happy to stay again.

We were greeted with a wonderful basket of snacks and water in the refrig. Mini toiletries in the bathroom in case you forgot anything. Very clean and comfortable. The house was in walking distance to many restaurants and night life. We felt safe walking back late night. Without question would stay again.

Perfect!

EXCELLENT! This place is so adorable. The old school charm is just awesome, and we we all commented that if and when we come back to the area, we would want to stay here again. Super clean, well maintained and the only "glitch" was in checking in, where the code that got sent was actually contained a typo. So the code we got wouldn't work. But the owner was SUPER responsive and got us in within seconds, and we appreciated it!
