Unique Houseboat in Port City Marina Wilmington, NC

Unique Houseboat in Port City Marina. It is centrally located between the Wilmington Convention Center and the new City Park and Amphitheater. Rare opportunity to stay not near the water but ON the water. Amazing views not only of the Cape Fear River but also of the beautiful yachts that visit and call Port City Marina home.

Beautiful open layout with 2 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. First floor includes full kitchen, dining room, living room, one of the bedrooms and full bathroom that includes a washer and dryer. The second floor includes the master bedroom with a full bathroom and additional living room with sectional couch that includes a pullout queen sofa bed. The views from the spacious second floor outdoor patio with sink and mini fridge and comfortable seating will have you planning your next visit. We are in a premier location with direct views of the Cape Fear River and the yachts in the marina.

Port City Marina is also a center for entertainment and dining along downtown Wilmington's Riverwalk, popular Front Street and the Historic District. If you love music, Downtown Wilmington is the place to be. There are concerts at Marina Grill, the Marina Pier and the Live Oak Amphitheater, all riverfront. You can enjoy this live music directly from our outdoor patio. Wilmington has been recently ranked as the top up-and-coming destination in the South.

Quiet Birthday Celebration
This property was beautiful and peaceful. The place was nicely decorated. For the property being pricey, the gravel parking lot and the unloading of luggage was very unexpected. One thing I can say is that we got in our steps while unloading. Next time we will bring our travel wagon. 😅. Other than that we enjoyed the stay!

UNIQUE & RELAXING GETAWAY
Peaceful stay in unique accommodations. Take in the town or stay put and relax, either way you can't go wrong. The property has everything you might need and more. The wifi is a bit spotty, if that's important to you. Definitely not a deal breaker for us. We enjoyed every moment!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was very clean and was just as advertised. Beautiful accommodations and just a short walk to several restaurants. The owner, Kelly, was very helpful and answered all my questions prior to the trip. We would definitely stay here again!!!

Amazing Houseboat!
We had an amazing week on this beautiful houseboat!! After a long trip we were greeted by a basket of snacks and all the amenities you need to have a great holiday. The houseboat far exceeded our expectations and you cannot get better views than ones off the back deck. Kelly was great providing all the information needed, checkin and checkout were a breeze. We had a amazing time! I highly recommend renting Kelly and Patrick’s houseboat!

Paradise on Water!
Beautiful scenery, excellent relaxing location with awesome amenities! This place is wonderful, exactly as seen in the photos! The yachts were gorgeous to look at, great music and food from the Marina Grill and very peaceful in the evenings. The houseboat does rock when the water has waves, which can sometimes be calming! Loved the modern decor, it's impeccably designed! This was an a great bucket list item!!! The host are SUPERB!
