We just completed our second visit to Ryan and Brittany's Yak Shack and could not be more pleased with our stay. The property is charming, comfortable, and immaculate. We highly recommend the Yak Shack for travelers visiting Wilmington and desiring lodging in/near the downtown historic section. We will be back!
