Amazing!!

If you don’t book this place you are missing out. The place is awesome. We got lucky and met the people who run it who happened to be downstairs when we arrived so we got a history lesson of the place. It is gorgeous and huge. And that area of Wilmington has really blossomed in the past four years. Some great new favorites and of course still close to all the things we love in the other areas of Wilmington. Terrific.

Walk to anywhere!

Decor is stunning! We never had to get in our car to attend all downtown wedding festivities. When we were hungry we walked across the Strret to RX one of the best restaurants in town. Only suggestion is to make the TV/entertainment system more user friendly for non techies We figured it out on our last day!

Firehouse Fun!

The Firehouse in Wilmington, NC was a wonderful place for our four day stay. We thought we would try something new and a little historical feel to it. The place was spacious and nicely decorated. We were in walking distance of the downtown area and also the community within blocks of us. We did bring the dogs and there was a courtyard for them to hang out with us and many places were dog friendly. It was a pleasure meeting our host Donna and she was very helpful and kind. We were there during a time the community was having an outdoor movie night with popcorn, hot dogs and slushie treats and she invited us to join in the fun. It was a very hot week but we enjoyed our stay and visited the beach and the battleship. If you enjoy history, stay in the Firehouse and learn more about the Wilmington area!

Wonderful stay!! So surprised how nice!!

Staying at the fire house in Wilmington was a nice surprise! It is a very unique place to stay and one that my wife and kids will remember for a long time. We had a great time and were surprised how nice the fire house was renovated. The owners went to every detail to make sure that your stay is comfortable. The kids enjoyed the games and old-school boombox. We loved the proximity to the Riverwalk and even got to see fireworks on July 4 down by the river that night. Admittedly I was a little concerned about staying in a building that old, but it was truly an enjoyable experience. I thought that the heating and cooling may not suffice, but it held up on the hottest of days during our three day stay. We would definitely rent this location again. This is a great way to see Wilmington if you want a unique and memorable experience.

Beautiful stay in downtown Wilmington!

The property was truly unique, we enjoyed the historical aspect of the old fire station. We were close to the beaches and downtown. The property is spacious and filled with sunlight from the beautiful original windows in the main living areas. We had a great time!

Quick Get Away

We loved our stay at the firehouse. We needed a quick stay to just relax a bit. The city sounds were a bit loud, but that is to be expected. The place was very clean and well organized. The host was really good about suggesting restaurants and quickly responding to messages. A great stay, we would love to cone back!

Family Thanksgiving!

My brother had stayed in the property before, so when we needed a place to cook and host a Covid-safe Thanksgiving, he recommended it. I and my husband and our kids and their friend stayed at the Firehouse, and other family and friends helped set up the downstairs, Station 2, and even put a small fire pit into the courtyard. Terry and Donna were friendly and very responsive. We had our first big family gathering in 2 years. Lovely experience, lovely venue, would recommend.

Fire house was really cool and our kids loved it. The renovations are really nice and the fact that our 3 and 6 year old will never forget they stayed in an old fire house are priceless.

A wonderful place and a great experience.

Very unique property. Beautiful interior and even more beautiful private courtyard (looks great at night). On top of that, the amenities were plentiful (towels/linens, kitchen ware, iron, hair dryer...and even a first aid kit).
