Cozy Fall Getaway: Historic 5BR + Hot Tub & Games Near Downtown & Cargo District

Stay together in a spacious 5-bedroom historic Wilmington home full of character and Southern charm, just minutes from downtown and an easy drive to Wilmington-area beaches. The Byrd’s Nest sleeps up to 10, with plenty of room for everyone to relax, gather, and enjoy time together.

Spend the day exploring downtown Wilmington, heading to the beach, or checking out nearby favorites like the Cargo District. Then come home to unwind in the private hot tub, enjoy a game night with board games and an arcade, cook together in the full kitchen, or simply relax and enjoy the warmth and unique details of a home with more than a century of Wilmington history.

The neighborhood has Hollywood history of its own, too. One Tree Hill fans will recognize Carolina Place as home to several filming locations, including the house used as Lucas Scott’s home just blocks away. Scenes from Halloween Kills were filmed only a block away at Wallace Park, and nearby New Hanover High School has appeared in productions including One Tree Hill, Blue Velvet, Dream a Little Dream, and The Runarounds. Wilmington’s long history as a film and television destination adds another fun layer to explore during your stay.

Parking is easy with two dedicated on-site spaces, plus additional street parking available.

With historic charm, plenty of space to gather, a private hot tub, and a convenient location near downtown, the beaches, and some of Wilmington’s most recognizable spots, The Byrd’s Nest is a memorable home base for family trips, wedding weekends, reunions, beach getaways, and weekends with friends.
