Lovely Rental

Hunter and his Mum are as sweet as they come! The location of this rental is amazing… right on the water and walking distance to the quaint little town. We had an incredible dinner at Herringbones. Overall, we enjoyed some quiet time in Edenton and I highly recommend this rental.

Edenton Carriage House

It was a beautiful property and the hosts were fantastic. They made sure we had everything we needed and gave us recommendations on things to do. My husband and I really enjoyed this stay. Edenton is full of history, quaint, fun and friendly. Do some sleep

Perfect in every way

This carriage house is exactly as described and pictured. Location is walking distance to many restaurants & Shopping. Our favorite eatery was Herringbones. Hunter was a pleasure to work with while booking our stay. There is a self guided tour to some very interesting history in Edenton.

Beautiful VRBO in Edenton, NC

We just completed our stay in the Carriage House with the most wonderful Judy Burch and her son Hunter. The place itself was beautiful with everything you could possibly need near at hand. The view from the Front Porch was also delightful. I would highly recommend to anyone visiting Edenton, NC. The town itself is so historic and beautiful and the people so friendly I think everyone should visit! When you're visiting you can't go wrong with a stay in the carriage house!!!

Great experience in beautiful Edenton

We had a great visit in Edenton, and loved the beautiful location of the rental. Hunter was very responsive to any needs and a great communicator. Edenton is a beautiful, quiet little town. Recommend that anyone visiting on the weekend bring breakfast for Sunday- everything walkable is closed! But the rental unit has a great kitchenette with refrigerator, toaster, microwave, and utensils.

Fantastic!!!

The place was perfect - very beautiful, everything we needed and more. Loved the fresh fruit and goodies, the mini-kitchen was perfect for our needs. Even things we didn’t realize we needed were thought of. The bed was super comfortable and we enjoyed just relaxing in the room. Our hosts were very friendly and lovely people to chat to. Edenton is such a charming little town, too. If we find ourselves down in NC again, we’d definitely stay here again! Thank you again for your hospitality!

The location was perfect. It made for easy walking to restaurants, parks and nature walks. We loved that we parked when we arrived and didn't get back in the car until we were leaving. The accommodations were comfortable and well appointed, with a kitchenette to meet our needs. Thank you also for the water bottles as we did not think about packing our own.

First (but not last!) Edenton visit

We had an amazing time exploring Edenton from this wonderful home base on Water Street. We thoroughly enjoyed the carriage house, bikes, fabulous location, and evenings on the front porch. We did so much— but we ran out of time before we saw it all. We cannot believe we have never been to Edenton before. We will be back!

A beautiful, comfortable historic property

We had a wonderful “getaway” long weekend here. The carriage house is perfect for a couple. The bed was super comfortable for me ( my husband thought it was a bit firm for his liking, but he prefers a soft mattress). The amenities were perfect. I wanted to try to smuggle the bedroom armchair home, it was so beautiful, but I think Hunter might notice, lol! The location was perfect, right across the street from Edenton Bay. If you get the chance, take Captain Mark’s boat ride for more historical information and great views.

A Wonderful Weekend Getaway

The Carriage House provided a wonderful place to stay while visiting Edenton. The location of the property was perfect as it provided great water views and it was a very short walk to the shops and restaurants. The interior was lovely, and the grounds were stunning. The property was quiet and very clean and the owners were delightful. All of this contributed to a great weekend getaway! We will be back!
