Be sure to check out the Historic District of Downtown Wilmington - head 1.4 miles north (we recommend by car because of the busy intersections, but walking is possible!). This area has countless eateries, stores, nightlife spots, and more!
If you’re in town for a concert, the new Live Oak Bank Pavilion is only 2.3 miles away, so The Mod Cottage is a great spot to visit Wilmington for a concert!
**Note: The Mod Cottage is close to a railroad track that can run 24 hours a day. Some days, you will not see a train; some days, you will see a few. We are not responsible for or aware of the train schedule, and guests should consider this when booking our place. Feel complimentary to message me with any questions about this!

Downtown Wilmington is only part of what makes the “Port City” area so phenomenal… We also have charming beaches a fast drive away!
Wrightsville Beach - 9.9 miles away
Carolina Beach - 14 miles away
Kure Beach - 17 miles away
Another great spot on our coast is Fort Fisher. The beach area is striking, but the iconic trees set the area apart. It’s just past Kure Beach, about 19 miles from The Mod Cottage. This is also where the North Carolina Aquarium is located! A “can’t miss” for families and kids of all ages.
