About this property
Golden Girls Cottage in Historic Mansion District
Welcome to the Golden Girls cottage! Our home is located in Wilmington's historic mansion district and offers convenient, modern amenities in one of Wilmington's most charming neighborhoods. Located within walking distance of the popular Cargo District as well as the Soda-pop district, there are endless options for fun. Restaurants, bars, and shops are plentiful. Wilmington is a very inclusive community, and we are LGBTQ+ owned and friendly!
At the Golden Girls Cottage, you will get all the charm this historic neighborhood has to offer while enjoying the comfortable and well-appointed space that we have prepared for you! Each room in our cottage has been thoughtfully curated to provide a fun, vintage inspired stay.
While we do love the fun, GG inspired touches, the cottage is a quiet, relaxing space for anyone and any occasion. Come on, come all!

The bedroom also offers a smart TV with streaming services at your disposal. Bathroom features a walk-in tiled shower (handicap accessible) with on-demand hot water for you who enjoy those long showers.
