A family friendly home with a great outdoor space and private pool. Located in the center of Wilmington, just a short distance from the beaches or historic downtown. Fur babies welcome, Lyla the cat lives here full time, and we ask to please open a provided fresh can of food for her daily. As we are pet friendly, but PLEASE DO NOT allow dogs in the pool. The hair gets in the pump, and without the knowledge of how to clean it, it will ruin the pump and leave you without a pool.

Excellent time away, the place has character, so many fun art pieces and activities to do. The owner was prompt when there was a AC issue, addressed and fixed quickly. This home is lived in but thats what gives it such great charm. Would absolutely stay again.
We enjoyed our stay so much that we want to come back next year. We were on our honeymoon and there is so much to do in Wilmington that we didn’t even have time to go to the actual beach. This rental was amazing and the host was very accommodating.
Fantastic place to stay . Very centrally located. Well stocked with everything you could possibly need . Host very responsive. Will definitely stay here again.
Fantastic place ! This was our second year here and we will be back next year too . Fantastic host , very responsive to any questions. Great location , safe neighborhood. Home is well stocked and clean . Backyard pool is definitely a hit !
Had a great time at the house! Our family loved the place. It was also near everything we needed and a short drive to our destinations. Thanks! We loved the cat!
My family and I really enjoy this property. It has great entertainment with a pool and a pool table. We enjoy getting visits from Layla, the property cat, as well. We will continue to visit this property.
Gracious host with a beautiful property, we could not have asked for any more in this relaxing surrounding provided by a host that puts her guests first and foremost.
Great property. Big, homey, private back yard with private pool. Pet friendly and all necessary amenities. Close to everything, but away from the crowds. Nice neighborhood.
We enjoyed our visit and had no issues at all with our stay. Enjoyed the pool and nearby park with swings and walking trail. Our host provided all the information we needed and the house even had items available we weren't expecting.
Loved my stay at this wonderful place. The owner was so incredibly accommodating and nice and it was a great place that was well appointed and conveniently located to anything you’d need. You can tell the owner took great care of the place and thought out her guests stay with everything you’d need. The beds were very comfortable, it was superbly clean, had games, books, apps on tv, and just the perfect set up for an incredibly stay. I’d come back again and again! Thank you for such an incredible stay!
The house was very comfortable and well maintained. We loved sharing our space with Lyla, the resident cat. We all throughly enjoyed the pool. If we are ever in that area again, I would not hesitate to stay there again. We all had a wonderful time.
The backyard was awesome for the pups. Pool was exceptional. Location was good
Check out time in website is 10; book in house said 11.....understood there was a cat that would be in/out of the house when booked; didnt know be responsible to feed the cat daily....thats something guest should know up front
Art surrounds you, in this older home and the backyard is lovely. We enjoyed meeting Lyla, the resident cat. The kitchen cabinets could use some decluttering and a colander.
