It's the perfect little secret cozy hideaway if you want to be in the heart of it all without the hassle! Enjoy fast WiFi, hot coffee at a corner cafe, strolling around the block for local microbrews or the farmer's market on Saturdays, poking around the local art scene, soaking in a riverfront sunset, taking in an evening Ghost Tour or romantic horse and carriage ride, sauntering over to a yoga class......if you want to experience the heart of downtown Wilmington, this is it! This quirky andnewly renovated studio has all the creature comforts you need for a happy, cozy stay. Park the car, no need to drive!
The space
Perfect for singles or couples, the studio is a charming 320 square feet. Located on the second floor, window overlooks a bright and sunny open-air atrium. The vibe is fun and eclectic here - feel free to kick your feet up and relax!

Sleep: The 2nd Street Studio has a queen size Murphy bed that comfortably sleeps 2 people. Yes, it's a real bed and mattress and it is comfy! The bathroom is spacious for 2. Linens and towels provided. Laundry is on-site and FREE for you.

Connect: Stay connected with the flat screen tv - you've got all the local channels, Amazon Prime video, Netflix and free WiFi.

Eat: Fully equipped kitchenette! But you won't want to miss our local dining scene. :)

Park: It's right across the street and is $8/day. The big parking deck is on the corner, and several other decks are within walking distance. There are metered spots right out the front door and on every block (free after 6:30 pm and Sundays!). Plan to park your car and leave it - you won't need it unless you are headed to the beach! Since downtown is THE place to be, street parking can be tricky on holiday and festival weekends... contact us and we will help you.

    The property was right in the heart of the historic Wilmington scene. Walking distance to the whole waterfront. Plenty of accessible parking. However, it was quiet (in spite of a thumping, raging party next door). I felt very safe. Check in info was great. The place was cozy and clean. The kichen and bath are sizeable and you can cook there. Overall, a great home base for my weekend!

    Perfect location for my trip. Next door to the event space where I attended a wedding. Everything was walkable. The studio itself was super cute. Two things that came up for me: I was a little too short (5' 4) to reach the Murphy bed but eventually get it. Maybe a stool or tall companion would be helpful. And, although there was a sign about the shower hot/cold situation, the temp was either very hot or very cold. I couldn't find the sweet spot. The bed, linens, and amenities were great. I particularly enjoyed poking around all the books, gems, records, tarot cards, plants, and other decor. Overall, this is a great find! I would definitely stay here again but will ask for help with the shower next time. Thank you!!

    This Vrbo was perfect for our little getaway. The location was more than ideal as we did not have to start or move the car the entire weekend! Everything we were interested in for our first trip was within walking distance. The house is adjacent to a night club but that didn’t bother us too much as we had a long day and were exhausted from all the fun experiences. Thanks for a great host!

    Great, convenient location to the river walk and all of the shops and restaurants downtown. The unit was quiet and perfect for 2 people. Very cute and well worth booking again!

    We enjoyed the ease of getting in and out of the condo and parking choices were abundant for our 2-day weekend stay-cation. We had everything we needed in the neat and tidy unit! Jen responded quickly to our question about the lock code. I'd recommend this whole heartedly as a great place to explore downtown Wilmington from --- on foot!
