Cozy Stay In Historic Wilmington

Great Kitchen set up with all the necessities, lots of privacy at the back entrance and a very comfortable bed, pillows etc. (For all you hot sleepers it was cotton bedding. No microfiber sheets! Amazing! ) Loads of clean towels available and complimentary toiletries in case you forgot your shampoo.Very simply but decorated but still cute. (which is great for baby proofing etc) It was the perfect location for us to stay near downtown but with the privacy of being several blocks back from the water. I will look to rent again if back in Wilmington.

Awesome place!

My wife and I spent 4 days in this charming old home built in 1868. Located in a beautiful historic area that's only a 15 minute walk to downtown Wilmington. We both loved staying in this house. We highly recommend this place for a couple wanting to visit Wilmington.

Great location, close to anything you would need from eating, groceries, gas and shopping in general. Walking around the area is really nice, cute homes and a great deal of history. The home itself is super cute and comfy, especially for its age! Craig was very accommodating and let us check in earlier, as we got in town Way ahead of schedule! Home stayed cool with the AC in this crazy heat and the kitchen is really nice. The back yard is small so your vehicle will take up some space if you park behind the gate/fence. Now we have a pretty tall jeep with wide tires that barely got in there lol but it did and that is own us ;) It was still nice to be able to just walk out with our small dogs and let them go potty. We were only here for a business type trip but would def stay here again if we ever came back!

Wilmington Anniversary Weekend

The property was exactly as described. The codes worked well for both the gate and house. Very clean and well appointed with everything we could have needed. There was a good bit of traffic noise on Market Street but the sound machine helped. We enjoyed our time at 702 Market Street

First time visit

First visit to Wilmington and this property was a perfect fit for our visit. The property inside and outside was very accommodating and very comfortable. The location was great- we walked to the downtown/water-walk area for dinner. Communication with our host was excellent. It made it so easy to check in and out. Looking forward to our next visit.
