Wilson, North Carolina
Beautiful ONE of a kind historic property in Wilson, NC that is listed on the National Historic Register and is a local landmark with 12 foot ceilings and a full size porch. It is centrally located just a few blocks from Barton College and less than a mile from downtown Wilson, 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms! Room for everyone! High Speed Wifi!
It was sad to see /what could be beautiful house run so terribly - the house could be charming - but absolutely in need of deep cleaning. Upon arrival we were quickly disappointed when what we were expecting to be enjoying a family vacation full of memories, we immediately had to go to marshalls to buy fresh linens for bed and bath to salvage what we could of our vacation. We also bought comforter sets for each bed as it appeared whoever bought the bedding had taste up their XXX. Not only ugly but old and cheap crap probably from walmart or possibly five below. Who would want to stay at an historical home with dirty area rugs and crappy bedding. The beds were all uncomfortable and we were greeted with one very old towel and wash cloth that were bought at the local dollar tree. Yes 1 towel per room to share for a four night stay. Each bathroom was stocked with an almost empty cheap hand soap and 1/2 a roll of toilet paper each. Besides being filthy the vents on ceiling looked like they hadn't been cleaned in years. I was afraid to leave light on at night that it could cause a fire. Kitchen appliances were cruddy as well. We had to clean the fridge before we could put food in it. Servingware was the worst. Pots looked like they were purchased at the local dump and there was a half empty bottle of dish soap but plenty of ants. They did have a can of raid on counter so i guess we should be happy. Necho was unavailable the whole weekend. Never again!!
2nd time staying at property love the location, accommodations, host, and the size of property. Thank you once again Necho!
The house had several great features that made it perfect for our week long stay with multiple friends. First, it was perfect for multiple couples/families to stay in as each room was large and had its own bathroom this is a rare thing to find. The wrap around porch with the rocking chairs were a great feature to sit outside in the mornings and listen to the birds. The kitchen was large and spacious for all of us getting ready in the morning. There was a grill in the front that we used to have a barbeque one night and hang out playing games. Parking was plentiful and right in front of the house. The location was close to everything. There were plenty of extra towels and linens as well as a washer and dryer. The host was responsive and accommodating as we asked about a microwave and he went and purchased one and installed it that day. So as you see there are so many positives about this place I would highly recommend and would definitely stay again.
pretty, location location, spacious, kid and pet friendly, free easy parking, near all - restaurants, church, medical, supermarkets, reasonable gasoline, nice neighborhood to walk around, easy access to main highways but far enough not to be disturbing, great porch to sit on and enjoy the views, great property manager who responds very promptly, we will be back next year
We had an awesome visit with my Barton college student over Easter. The home was large enough for all my kids and their significant others and the dog too. The location was ideal and everyone loved the spacious bedroom and attached baths in each room. The home needs some TLC; it appears to need a deep cleaning and some minor repairs to floors and walls. The heating and cooling was able to be controlled in each room which was nice. The home is a very pretty older home. We were surprised that there was no microwave. I never stayed at a VRBO with no microwave. We made Easter dinner and had to heat in the toaster over and over. Overall we had a great visit all together.
Great location and clean property
Our stay at the Queen Anne cottage was wonderful. We were in Wilson for a memorial service. Even with the somberness of the occasion we felt like this was the perfect place for us. The house is so cool and historical. The owner has a picture album of the house being moved to it's current location (My 2 1/2 yr old grandson was completely fascinated by this). It is so spacious and in a perfect location in Wilson. The owner, Necho, was easy to communicate with and went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of. He has great suggestions for places to visit around town (Whirligig Park and the ease of walking to downtown). Thank you Necho for making us feel welcome. I would stay here again and recommend it to anyone wanting to visit Wilson.
The house provided the basics just fine. It could use a little love and a deep clean but it was spacious and the owner was helpful. Several of the mattresses are new/comfy but not all of them.
Perfect house and location!
If you love Victorian style homes, this is the place for you! The home was clean and the owner is extremely friendly. Sheets and towels were provided which was a bonus with having less things to pack. The rooms each having their own full-bathroom was a definite plus, and they are pet friendly.
