About this docked boat rental
Cozy houseboat located in the downtown Port City Marina nestled among The Cove Riverwalk Villas. 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 retractable privacy fence) 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.

The facility was everything we expected and more in terms of presentation, safety, cleanliness, comfort, location, and views.The host was in contact prior to arrival, during our stay, and did a follow up after checkout. The host was very attentive, provided great info about the area, and ensure that all our needs were met and they were available to assist if needed. They provided water and snacks which enhanced our arrival after a long trip. We have shared information about this vrbo options with friends and would definitely book with them again.MANY THANKS and HATS OFF for a job well done and excellent guest services...
