My wife & I just spent 5 days at Camellia Cottage B&B in Wilmington. It was fantastic! The home is beautiful, surrounded by a yard that has been beautifully planted and maintained. Paula, Steve and Sparky are excellent hosts and made us feel like we were sitting in our own home. top that off with a city with a gorgeous... More

Hal W I just came back from my 4th stay at Camellia Cottage and find it an exquisite place to stay. Why? It's a home. Steve and Paula get to know people and pets--and are genuine, not gushy. They remember not just your name but things that are important to you. This is a relationship abode, not a commodity rest... More

We took a trip to Camellia's Cottage for 2 nights this past weekend. It was nothing short of PERFECT! The location was unbeatable, the service was out of this world, the house was beautiful, and our favorite part was laying on the hammock under the Carolina stars. We cannot wait to return. Paula's cooking was second to NONE! Everything we... More

Camellia Cottage gets top ratings in every category. The rooms were charming and immaculate, the beds luxuriously comfortable, the breakfast scrumptious and the location could not be better. This historic house is surrounded by beautiful gardens and a short walk to restaurants and shops on the revitalized river front of Wilmington. Paula and Steve are friendly and welcoming to pets...

Wilmington was one of our stays on our "retirement trip." We travel with our cat Otis and were pleasantly surprised to find a B&B that will take cats. Camellia Cottage is located just a few blocks from downtown and the River Walk. Steve, Paula, and of course, Sparky made us all feel right at home the minute we stepped through... More

After a 12 year absence, we returned to North Carolina and discovered this wonderful B & B. Surrounded by magnificent gardens, we reveled at the charm of this historic house and city. Make sure you spend some time enjoying the large porch (there's nothing like an afternoon siesta in the hammock) since access to Wilmington's excellent restaurants and waterfront are... More

We have stayed at Camellia Cottage several times while in Wilmington to see our daughter and grandchildren. Paula and Steve (and Sparky) are the best!! Other innkeepers could learn a lesson or two from them. Our dog loves to be able to travel with us and he is welcomed as much as we are. It is within walking distance to... More

We are traveling with our little dog and this charming BandB could not have made us feel more welcome. Located in a lovely part of historic Wilmington just a short walk from the Riverwalk, we had a nicely decorated room, very clean, a good night's sleep and a very good breakfast, and friendly hosts. Can't ask for much more. More

Upon our arrival, we were greeted by Sparky, the sweetest dog owned by the innkeepers, Steven and Paula. We enjoyed a very warm introduction to their B&B. We stayed in the Cypress Suite which had it's own entrance on the side of the house. It has a separate door that leads to the second floor suite that included the bedroom,... More
