Sensational 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 couch bed. The vistas from the cavernous second floor outdoor patio (with retractable privacy fence) with sink and mini refrigerator and comfortable seating will have you planning your next visit. We are in a premier location with direct vistas 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, trendy Front Street and the Historic District. If you appreciate music, Downtown Wilmington is the place to be. There are concerts at Marina Grille, the Marina Pier and the Live Oak Amphitheater, all riverfront. You can appreciate this live music directly from our outdoor patio. Wilmington has been newly ranked as the top up-and-coming destination in the South.
