    comfortable room
    private bathroom
    cozy decorations
    touch-up needed
    old areas

    I stayed in the Deluxe Queen Room for 2 nights, and it was super comfy! The bed felt really nice, and the room had all the little amenities you might need. Sophie decorated the house for Christmas, adding a cozy feel. There was also a private bathroom, which was great. Overall, the vibe was warm and inviting, like a home away from home, but some areas could use a bit of touch-up since the house is old. Still enjoyed the stay!

    southern hospitality
    delicious breakfast
    comfortable room
    tight parking
    cramped areas
    maintenance needs

    Sophie made us feel immediately welcomed with refreshing drinks in the charming parlor. The historic charm of the house added so much warmth, especially with Christmas decorations. I loved our Deluxe Queen Room. it was comfortable and well-stocked with amenities. Breakfast each morning was a standout, with made-to-order options that included the best waffles I've ever had. The atmosphere felt homey, definitely getting that Southern hospitality vibe. However, parking felt a bit tight, especially during peak check-in hours. Some common areas seemed cramped when busy, which made mingling with other guests a little tricky. Also, a few maintenance touch-ups around the house would enhance the experience. However, the homemade breakfasts and cozy environment definitely made up for those minor inconveniences.

    cramped areas

    Read this before you decide

    A wonderfully warm atmosphere! Sophie’s cooked-to-order breakfasts were enormous and delicious, complemented by a festive Christmas decor that truly immersed us in holiday spirit.

    Some elements need attention—limited parking might complicate your arrival. Plus, the common areas felt a bit cramped during busy hours, affecting social interactions.

    historic charm
    refreshing drinks
    family-friendly atmosphere
    limited activities for kids

    The kids loved exploring the historic charm of the house, and we enjoyed sipping refreshments while chatting with Miss Sophie. We also went on a ghost walking tour nearby, which was a hit with the family and a fun way to jump into Wilmington's history.

    My children wished there were more games for their age group.

    gracious hostess
    southern character
    delicious breakfasts
    cramped common areas

    Sophie is, without a doubt, the most gracious hostess I've ever met! The breakfasts were a feast—huge waffles and perfectly cooked eggs. The home had this lovely Southern character with gardens to relax in. Meeting other travelers felt like a get-together of friends.

    While the place has charm, some common areas felt a bit cramped during peak times, and a little dust around could've been tidied up.

    homemade breakfast
    cozy atmosphere
    relaxation spots
    early check-out

    We had a wonderful time enjoying the homemade breakfast brothed by Sophie, who was simply delightful, and we loved the cozy atmosphere with charming furnishings. The relaxation spots outside were perfect for unwinding after our adventures, especially the garden area. The only drawback was that check-out came way too soon, so make sure to plan for extra time! 😊

    Sophie’s hospitality shines through with generous homemade breakfasts and a cozy atmosphere. Parking can feel a bit tight, especially during peak check-in times. A fun walking tour nearby added excitement to our stay.
