???? Welcome!
We want you to maximize your time here! To help us keep things running smoothly for everybody, please keep these things in mind:
???? Security Deposit: A $500 returnable security deposit is required for each reservation.
Check-In: Welcome home anytime after 4:00 PM using your keyless PIN code.
Check-Out: By 10:00 AM so our cleaning team can get to work making it ideal for the next guests.
A Quick Reminder: Please ensure your cars are moved at check-out time so our cleaning crew have a clear space to pull in. Unapproved late check-outs may incur a $200 fee.
???? Guests are required to provide a government-issued photo ID and complete a signed rental agreement prior to check-in, as required under North Carolina law (N.C. Gen. Stat. § 42A-10). This is finished through our complimentary guest portal, which also offers optional keyless entry and check-in convenience features.
???? Parking Comfortably (Nun Street Details)
Parking downtown can be a bit tight, so we want to make sure you have a anxiety-complimentary spot! To keep our great relationship with our neighbors and stay aligned with town rules, we have a two-car limit on Nun Street.
Your Spots: There is space for two (2) cars directly on the street right in front of our home.
Have additional cars? No problem at all! There is plenty of complimentary parking available on the surrounding cross-streets.
Neighborly Appreciate: To keep the tranquility on the block, please avoid parking directly in front of the two homes to the RIGHT of us, and make sure not to block or park in the modest driveway to the LEFT of our front stairs (that's our neighbor's private property). Vehicles blocking our neighbors' spaces or driveways unfortunately risk being towed by the city.
???? House Guidelines & Neighborhood Standards
We are proud partners of the Rent Responsibly community, which means we strive to provide a safe, relaxing environment for you and our magnificent neighbors.
???? Fresh Air Only: Our home is stringently non-smoking (both indoors and outside on the front porch and back patio). Smoking indoors triggers a deep-deodorization treatment fee of $250.
???? Fur-Free Zone: This property is a pet-complimentary home.
???? Guest Count: To ensure everybody is safe and comfortable, only the guests supplied in your official booking may stay at the property.
???? Gatherings: While our home is incredibly roomy and ideal for making memories with your favorite people, we do adhere to standard platform policies prohibiting events or sizable disruptive events.
???? Quiet Hours & Privacy: To ensure a peaceful nighttime's sleep for everybody on the block, please respect our local city peaceful hours. To help maintain this balance, the home features NoiseAware technology. It’s a 100% privacy-compliant intelligent device that only measures overall volume levels (it never records content or words) just to help us keep things neighborhood-friendly!
????️ Handy Home Tips
???? Intelligent TVs
Every TV in the home is a ROKU TV! Feel complimentary to log into your favorite streaming apps (Hulu, Netflix, Disney+, etc.) to catch up on your shows.
???? Don't forget to log out of your accounts before you head home!
????️ AC, Heat & Fans
Each floor has its own central heating and cooling unit. You can comfortably adjust the climate to your liking using the digital wall thermostats on each level.
Ceiling Fans: To use the fans, make sure the wall light switch is flipped ON, then use the handy remote control to set your ideal speed.
????️ Lookout Trundle Bed
Headed up the spiral staircase? The cozy daybed in the top lookout conveniently converts into a comfortable trundle bed with two twin beds:
Gently slide the room's chair out of the way for clearance.
Grip the top of the daybed frame just above the drawers and pull it straight forward.
Once entirely extended, just slide the top bed down onto the pulled-out frame, and you're good to go!
???? Keeping Things Fresh
Cleaning & Bleach: To prevent accidental stains on fabrics or surfaces, please do NOT use bleach during your stay. Our professional cleaning crew takes care of all the deep sanitizing between guests!
Scents & Aromas: We ask that you please do not burn incense or diffuse essential oils during your stay. These scents can linger intensely and be very tough on the next guest if they have sensitive respiratory systems or allergies.
We want you to have an memorable trip to Wilmington and we kindly ask that you treat the home with care, as if it were your own. Our goal is to provide a handsome, comfortable getaway where guests can really relax and make lasting memories. This property is professionally managed by Host Help Property Management. Our team is available to assist with any questions or needs during your stay, with office hours from 8am–12am EST.
