Everything was very clean! The house was in a very walkable area as well! The driveway can hold up to a sedan, which makes the street parking no issue.

We had an excellent two night stay at EBC. The location was amazing as it was an easy walk to downtown restaurants, shops and venues. Parking was easy and plentiful. It was tastefully decorated and loved the historical feel of the home. Kitchen was well stocked and the only thing I'd recommend is to have an extra roll of paper towels. The previous guests took the paper towels outside and we did not discover that until we were checking out. So we went the entire stay without napkins or paper towels which we really could've used. There was plenty of backup blankets and towels for the bedrooms and baths. Would recommend and definitely stay again!

Beautiful home in historic Wilmington
The house was great! Modern conveniences paired with historic architecture. We loved the front porch and hung out there even when it was well above 90. The proximity to the riverfront/riverwalk was great. An easy walk being just a couple blocks away. Being surrounded by so many beautiful historic homes was incredible. A great place to visit.

Comfortable; management corrected issues quickly.
The house accommodates a large group, and has a big kitchen and dining area. Very nice gas grill. Comfortable beds. We definitely had some glitches with missing essentials, but Jody responded very quickly to our requests. We enjoyed the location in easy walking distance of River Walk. We were there for graduation at UNC-W.
