Stay at the Ravens Nest Penthouse Condo and live like a local in one of the most sought-after locations with unbeatable views in downtown Wilmington. Whether you’re here for relaxation or adventure, or a bit of both, you’ll find it all right here. Our stylish riverfront penthouse condo resides along Wilmington’s famous Cape Fear River Walk.
Stroll by the water on the 1.75 mile riverwalk during the day to relax and stop at the unique shops and viewing areas along the way, or take a walk at dusk and be immersed in the radiant sunsets and lights of the Cape Fear Memorial Bridge as they reflect on the water. Explore downtown and find local attractions, restaurants, shops, and nightclubs within walking distance of the condo. Just step outside and you’ll venture into the heart of Wilmington, immersed in a metropolitan scene of art, history, and diverse culture. If you feel like wandering out a little farther, you can spend a day relaxing in the sun and sea with Wrightsville Beach just 10 miles away.
Settle in your refined yet relaxed space, equipped with a modern kitchen and en-suite laundry. Take in the expansive views from the covered balcony and floor-to-ceiling windows. As the evening settles, cap off your adventurous day with a handcrafted cocktail and late night bite from one of the many bars and restaurants right outside your door. At the end of the day you’ll cozy up in a ridiculously comfy king-sized bed while your friends or family rest their heads on the full-sized Murphy bed. Relax here. Adventure here. Discover Wilmington here.
The large, covered patio has a direct view of Battleship USS North Carolina, the Cape Fear River, and the Riverwalk. Netting was added to the balcony to prevent birds from claiming it as their home, since they seem to love the view as much as people do!

We loved our stay in this beautiful unit in downtown Wilmington. Great location by the River Walk, many nearby restaurants, boat tours and the USS North Carolina. Amazing views of the Cape Fear River and pretty sunsets.

Thank you for your fantastic feedback! We're delighted to hear that you loved your stay in our beautiful unit in downtown Wilmington.
The condo was spotless and nicely decorated, with a great view of the Cape Fear River. Lynne was a great host and quickly replied to our questions.
It was our first visit to the area and likely not our last!
We absolutely loved this property! Accessible to everything downtown Wilmington has to offer! Walking distance to the Wilson Center which we enjoyed so much. GREAT private balcony overlooking the Cape Fear and the battleship. Super accommodating condo and wonderful bed! Would definitely recommend!
What a lovely condo! The location was perfect -- walkable to just about everything in town. It's also only about 20 mins from the beach. The bed was incredibly comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. The views, particularly during sunset, were breathtaking. The property manager was highly responsive and provided excellent support. Overall, I highly recommend this property!
This condo was in an ideal location, close to all but a few streets away from the bustle and noise. The condo is furnished comfortably with everything you need. Plenty of coffee for the Nepresso ( thank you!), fantastic balcony seating that was so spacious and offered a wonderful view. Communication was fast and informative. Would stay here again to enjoy all that downtown Wilmington has to offer.
Nicely decorated! The condo has a modern feel to it. Plenty of room. Everything you need, including a small washer & dryer. Beautiful views of the water. I would absolutely recommend The Eagle's Nest. Only drawback is that it can be a bit loud at night, as there is a restaurant & bar just behind the condo.
We had a great time during our recent stay. The rental was clean, and nicely decorated. Location was great. We were able to walk to all the food spots downtown. When we weren't overindulging at the local restaurants we spent our time enjoying the balcony. One minor note was since it was a great location you could hear the live music just outside late into the night. Sealing the front door & providing a noise box might elevate some of the noise. Other than that it was an amazing trip. Would defiantly stay here again!

Wow! What an awesome place! Condo was immaculate, very well stocked, had amazing views, and was situated in the best location. Couldn’t have asked for a better place for a fun girls weekend with my mom and two adult daughters. We were able to walk to everything - 1 block from all the busy restaurants and bars but far enough away to have peace and quiet while watching the sunset over the river. Beds were super comfy- even the Murphy bed. Great wine glasses LOL(I am picky about wine glasses) Thank you, Lynne for being such a great host! We will be back!
My daughter and I took a girls trip for the weekend. We absolutely loved the condo. It was beautifully decorated, clean and had an amazing view. You are able to just pack your personal things, and everything else is there for you. I was especially grateful to not have to stop and buy coffee. We were able to walk everywhere we went, which was very nice. The patio is a perfect oasis. The only “down” sides… The tequila bar in the back of the building can stay pretty noisy for late into the night (we were there on St Patrick’s day weekend also though) and parking is not the best. Otherwise, everything was absolutely perfect!
This swanky downtown apartment was a great place to stay. The location couldn’t be any better and the views of the river and battleship were fantastic. The unit itself was done to perfection. It was extremely clean and tidy and had everything that you would need. Everything was neat and in very good order when we arrived. The linens and towels were of excellent quality. The attention to detail and the little extra touches made the accommodations a very special place to stay. This can only be done when you have a host that takes great pride in her work and cares deeply about the properties that she manages. The host Lynne was extraordinary. This is the perfect example of how a VRBO should be. Would stay here again and again.

Thank you so much Robin, it was such a pleasure meeting you both and I hope to see you again!
Great location with great access to diwntown Wilmington life!
A beautiful place with a beautiful view! Communication was great, instructions easy to follow, so very positive experience with property owner. We parked in the River Place parking deck for $14/day that just a block over (in front of the Ballust hotel). The condo is an easy, short 20 min drive to Wrightsville Beach, so we took advantage of this! Within walking distance to lots of food options (Quanto Basta ❤️❤️) and attractions - we loved walking downstairs to the Bagels on Point for a quick breakfast and the employees there were so sweet and helpful. I only took a star off for reasons that were outside of owner control - very loud weekend nights at the bar behind this complex could be difficult for light sleepers. I believe they were enough complaints that the bar was shutdown earlier on Saturday. Additionally, couldn’t fully enjoy the balcony because of resident pigeons. It didn’t necessarily bother me, but for those with aversion to birds to consider!
We loved staying at this vrbo! The view was amazing; very scenic with the Cape Fear river and amazing sunsets. We enjoyed sitting out on the deck on the comfortable furniture. The king-sized bed was plush and comfy, the kitchen had everything we needed and the bathroom has plenty of room and nice fluffy towels. The location is perfect for sightseeing the historic district and walking the riverwalk. Lots of great restaurants nearby! We would absolutely stay in this beautiful condo again. Communication with the property manager/owner was great, they were accomodating and friendly. (Parking is not included, but we parked at the Grace Street parking deck just a block away and it was $13 for 24 hours. Just about everything we wanted to see on this visit was within walking distance.)
