A great trip!

House was sparkling clean and warm and inviting. All of the furnishings and decorations had obviously been chosen with care. Bed was comfy and towels were fluffy. Location was perfect. We walked downtown and to the waterfront. We would definitely stay there again.

Everything and more

This property is DARLING!!! The owners have thought of everything from games, a fully stocked kitchen, to toiletries to even feminine products and hair straighteners. It’s a short walk to town (about 10 min) and very close to the farmers market as well. The yard put back was perfect for my kids to play soccer in as well. Check in was super easy and they were always communicating with us if we had any questions. 10/10 recommend and I will be sure to book with them next time we stay in Edenton!

Cute house, comfy mattresses

We were blown away with the level of hospitality. The hosts had left us a gift of wine + snacks, which we immediately devoured. Mattresses were very comfy.

Recharge

Wife and I needed a few days to recharge. The Jewel Box provided that. Clean, neat , stocked with necessary items. Lots of communication with owners, nice gift basket provided. A side note: if you arrive Sunday after 2;00 pm, also on Monday , the dining options are limited.

Amazing attention to detail.

The property was amazing, new and clean, fresh. The attention to detail in every respect was phenomenal. Coffee, available creamers, just everything was done with taste and absolutely first rate. The house was charming and all the finishes very well done. I couldn't recommend it more highly.

Lovely

We found the Jewel Box to be just as described and had a lovely stay. Erik and Lia are attentive hosts and checked with us after we arrived and again the next day to make sure all was OK. We had no problems but I’m sure they would have handled anything that came up. The location is perfect for walking to the historic district; in fact, some of the interesting historic sites on the trolley tour are practically back-door neighbors of the Jewel Box.

Beautifully remodeled cottage near Broad St.

The kitchen is the showpiece of this property. It is newly updated and very attractive. Be mindful of the twin bed with trundle. It's stated in the description, but two photos led me to think there were two twins. The hosts are extremely responsive and considerate.

Everything was like new here

The photos don't lie, this place is pristine. Nice amenities were included. We typically bring things like aluminum foil, zip bags, etc , but the host thought of everything we might need. Very convenient. Easy to get to waterfront restaurant and bars, just 3 blocks away.

Comfy & Cozy

Jewel Box is a beautiful house. You can tell the owners have put a lot of time and effort into the design and furnishings. From the kitchen to the bedrooms and bathrooms, it was fully equipped with all the necessities and plenty of extras, too. The location is perfect to explore Edenton - an easy walk to restaurants, historic homes and the waterfront. We would absolutely stay there again!

Beautiful home

Our stay at Erik and Lia's place was truly wonderful. The moment we arrived, we were greeted with a thoughtful gift bag and other touches to celebrate our anniversary. Their hospitality and kindness made us feel so grateful and at ease. The furnishings and decorations were simply stunning, and the backyard was incredibly beautiful. It was hard for us to leave, and we felt quite sad saying goodbye. We fell in love with this place and would give it more than 5 stars if we could. We're eagerly looking forward to our next visit.
