The Filming Locations of Dawsons CreekMany, many moons ago, I began to compile what I call my Stalking Bucket List a catalog of far off filming locations that I would like to visit at some point during my lifetime. At the very top of that list is Wilmington, North Carolina, which masqueraded as the fictional Capeside, Massachusetts on one of my favorite television series of all time, Dawsons Creek. Though the coming of age teen drama went off the air over a decade ago, I am still just as obsessed with it now as I was then. And while I have yet to make it to Wilmington, a fellow stalkerlongtime reader named Toni Frazer has visited the coastal city several times over the years and was nice enough to write up her adventures to share on IAMNOTASTALKER. Thank you, Toni Take it away In high school, I used to escape to a little town in North Carolina called Wilmington. Not literally. When it finally happened in 2.

Locations once there are no longer. Things dont look how they did back on that first trip. But thats ok. I just love being in this town any chance I get, whether I can see locations or not. It feels like home to me. Here are 1. 0 of my favourite locations over the 3 visits I have taken. I would include all of them, but theres always time for other posts. Ive placed these locations within the region of Wilmington they belong to so you can see which locations are where when you head there Maybe your favourite location made the cut Downtown Wilmington. Dawson Leerys House 6. Head Road, Wilmington. The season ends with Pacey at sea again, and Joey and Dawson kissing.

With Jen in the hospital, the gang tries not to be too sad about it. Dawson helps Jen make a video for her infant daughter, asking her to never stop loving and dreaming. On my very first trip to Wilmington in 2. I trekked as in walked for ages to Dawsons house pictured above and it blew me away with how amazing the experience turned out. The house is not located right in the centre of town, so it isnt easy to get there. It was closest to the mall more than anything, so I managed to get to that and then walked to the house as I was too scared to hire a car being only 2. Mailboxes are near the road so it isnt hard to find the right spot and the two houses are also located at the beginning of the road which helps.

But no one answered. Only planning on spending less than 1. I had to risk the chance of trespassing because I had traveled too far to go back, and there is no actual fence on the property, so you literally can walk between the two houses and out to the creek from the driveway, just like in the show. Ehh, Im thinking they are writing Layla out. Her and Jeff were getting boring with Layla being like. All times are GMT 7. The time now is 1126 PM. Dawson was the last role to be cast. On the way to the audition in Los Angeles, Van Der Beek actually sat next to future Entourage star Adrian Grenier on the plane. I will preface this by saying, I didnt enter into Jens house pictured below whilst there, as it does have a fence and I am not sure the owner loves all the attention. But at least you can take a photo of it in any case. Making my move, I walked to the back of the Leery house which is actually the front on the show and took some snaps. I saw Dawsons famous window the one Joey climbed into  and felt goose bumps immediately. Walking on the lawn and taking in the whole house as I stood on the dock that had also been used in the show many times including that infamous crying face Dawson does when Joey chooses Pacey over him in Season 3 well, I cannot describe how it felt standing here. When you have watched the show as much as I have, every scene that played out there I could remember in that instant the weddings, baby showers, elicit affairs being discovered. Except, they werent my memories. Everything looked exactly as it did on the show the outdoor furniture, the creek, the house. So many times, when tracking down a location, the owners have changed the fa. Luckily for me, it was as if I was standing on a preserved set which I was I couldnt believe I was actually standing right there I walked out onto the dock and took a few more photos, sitting on the edge just like Joey and Dawson did many a time. The creek is just beautiful Anyone who has a house along there is just lucky. What a view As I went to leave, ecstatic with my experience, the owners did pull up and I found they were an older aged couple who had lived there for many years. The female owner invited me inside for a cold drink as it was a very hot day, and I couldnt pass up the chance to see what the real inside of the house looked like plus I was thirsty. The Leery house was beautiful and getting a tour from the owner was more than I ever could have wished for. Seeing the real interior was awesome. It was so different from the Leerys interior, but similar too. Many marriage proposals happen out there on the dock, which the owner was telling me about and as a lover of the show I can see why this would be the place to do it if youre dating a real Dawsons Creek fan. It was EXACTLY as it was back then, down to. True Hollywood Story All Seasons. Episode Number Episode Name Originally Aired Image 1 x 1 Dark Obsession The Stalking and Murder of Rebecca Schaeffer. Dawson`S Creek Season 3 Episode 4' title='Dawson`S Creek Season 3 Episode 4' />After filming of the series ended, the owners kept the furniture and outdoor setting the show provided and left it as it was which explains why everything looked so familiar Standing on the porch remembering all the different scenes that took place there was amazing. There was a replica porch built which was featured when Dawson took Joey onto the set of his show in the later years, which means not everything was filmed at the actual house for every scene. I left the house by exiting from the porch just as I had seen the many characters do and I truly felt like I was in an episode of the show. It was just amazing standing there and a real dream come true. Being able to see this house in such detail only 5 years after the show ended is a moment I will never forget. Whether the house still has all these features, I dont care. I got to see it all for myself and its all I need.

Maybe one day I will change my mind. But I doubt it. Please do respect the privacy of the owners. Whether or not the owners still feel comfortable having people visit their house, I do not know. My experience was definitely an exception to any I have read. Capeside High School University Of North Carolina at Wilmington, 6. South College Road, Wilmington. The one mistake Dawsons Creek made in their locations was to use a university campus for their high school setting. Because when the college years came along. But, it did mean that high school life in Capeside was a dream. And walking around the UNCW Campus in Wilmington is a dream. I have visited the campus on many occasions and standing on the courtyard lawn is just stunning for a location, whether it is associated with a television show or not. Alderman Hall is the only building that was featured on the show, and when I was last there in 2. Alderman Hall on the right had a plaque on it about the show, which I thought was very sweet for them to acknowledge. The interior was not used obviously, but many scenes took place on the campus whether it was Joey and Dawsons massive fight at the dance after Jack and Joeys kiss is discovered or Pacey talking to Kristy Livingston for the first time thanks to Andie even if he had to fake a heart stripe, or the high school graduation on the great lawn. So much happened right there, it is a Dawsons Creek lovers delight. Alderman Hall is located right off the roundabout on Wagoner Drive, so it is quite easy to find once you enter the campus. If you look at Alderman Hall on Google Maps, it actually has a tag saying. Numerous scenes were filmed there and along the adjoining Riverwalk. When I first arrived in Wilmington, I literally felt d. I actually felt like I was walking in a dream. That I was in a place that felt like home because it was. I knew it so well. It was extremely surreal.
