The host Tracey and Mike were very friendly. They responded to any questions in a timely manner. The home is very clean and pictures that are shared indeed is what the home looks like. The neighborhood is beautiful and safe. Very easy commute to local restaurants, beaches and downtown Wilmington. I would definitely stay again!

Thank you so much, Kristin, for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure hosting you. We're so glad you enjoyed the home, the neighborhood, and the convenient location. We always strive to provide a clean, comfortable space and quick communication, so it means a lot to hear that reflected in your stay. You were a wonderful guest, and we would absolutely love to host you again anytime!
Every expectation was fully met and exceeded in many ways. The things that matter to me the most the kitchen and the bathroom and the living areas which pretty much says it all. The beds were comfortable and cozy. Closets galore! The bathroom was bright and airy, and the linens were perfect. And the kitchen was everything I could want. I did significant entertaining in the house and the gathering spaces were many, comfortable, and large enough for adults and small children to comfortably mix and enjoy family times. The outside was equally as welcoming. I really can’t think of one issue from opening the lockbox to get the keys to using the washing machines. It was a perfect three week stay. The owners have taken care of the property have appointed it with originality and comfort in mind.
