This property had everything we needed. We had no plans to cook, so didn't check out pots and pans, but it had everything we needed - towels, sheets, pillows, blankets, and a good shower. The TV was good, and it was convenient to the other places we visited.

Neat, clean yard.This location also is pet friendly saving us hundreds in kennel costs!As nice or nicer than average Edenton hotel room.Would definitely stay again.

Such a welcoming little property with all the comforts of a home away from home, clean, quiet and the perfect landing place at the end of the day. Victoria was awesome, checking in frequently to make sure we didn't need anything and with the care and attention she has given to the Hen House, we wanted for nothing, really. A nice to have would have been a dresser in the big bedroom. Bonuses are the onsite laundry, efficient A/C, lots of hot water and a beautiful back yard to walk the dog. Will definitely look to stay again should our travels bring us back to Edenton. Thank you!

Another wonderful stay

The Hen House is perfect for visiting Edenton. Victoria was so great at moving our days so we could stay for the Rockfish festival. Weather was so nice and we always carry folding camp chairs, so we spent a lot of time relaxing on the back deck which had plenty of shade and a beautiful view of the large back yard and fields beyond. Comfy, homey, and convenient!
