Great option within walking distance to downtown Wilmington with a small yard for the dogs and off street parking. The neighbors were very nice and the house was tidy and comfortable. A very good stay and would stay here again.

This is a very cute pet-friendly cottage!!! Very walkable to shops and restaurants and nice to walk the neighborhood. It has everything you need. The only trouble we had was trying to figure out the thermostat but we got it. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

This house is just as cute as it looks online. Everything was as pictured. Easy check in and out process. We had no issues. A few notes for future guests — the bottom bunk bed is very high off the ground. Kind of hard to get into. And the house is tucked into an alley that’s semi-paved. We were a little surprised by that. It can be tricky to find.

We loved this house and the location. The house was clean and had everything we needed. It was a modest walk or easy Uber ride to the downtown district. We would gladly stay here again next time we visit Wilmington.

Fun getaway

Loved this home - artsy cottage, lovely neighbors, great front porch! Walk to historical homes, near to Front street. We did a fishing charter & it was just a short drive to Carolina Beach. Great location!

Lovely Home/Good location

My friend and I stayed at this home for a few day getaway and this house was perfect. It was roomy and comfortable. The outdoor patio was a nice place to relax. Location was on a quiet street and approximately a 6 block walk to restaurants and breweries.

Wilmington cottage

We were only there for the weekend for a family thing, but enjoyed our stay. The cottage was an amazing renovation with very beautiful and unusual furnishings. Location was great for downtown. The neighborhood is a work in progress but has great potential. We would stay again.

Everything was wonderful. The communication before, during and after was great. The home is better than we thought. Cozy, updated without losing the the home's character, quiet block and within close proximity to everything. Will definitely return. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Wilmington 2025

We had a relaxing stay at the home in Wilmington. The neighborhood was quiet overall. The river walk was within a 15 minute walk as described. There is a wonderful neighbor across the street who pointed out a good coffee and wine bar that was within walking distance or a 5 minute car ride. We loved our stay and we are considering going back at some point.

This is a fantastic VRBO! Great neighborhood, Good location, Excellent communication with our host, Wonderful amenities, Very clean. I called it "return-ably perfect!" Seriously, we were very comfortable here. We enjoyed the ability to walk to most of our destinations but enjoyed the home enough to choose to stay in at times. The kitchen had everything we needed for our meals. The space lent itself to having separate conversations or coming together to watch the World Series! Once you turned in at night and closed your door, it was extremely quiet. Great Place!

Amazing house but read on

Gorgeous house. Came equipped with everything we needed. Short drive to the Riverwalk and beach. Walkable to family friendly hangouts Hi-Wire brewery and Burgers and Brews, both with live music and many games suitable for kids. Coffee shop and ice cream shop. Beds were extremely comfortable and bathrooms impressive. Amazing front porch. Neighborhood was a bit iffy at night, got woken up to gun shots on our last night which was a bit concerning but still felt safe inside. Not sure we would stay again because of this but the house is really hard to beat. .

Great location, adorable house! We loved being so close to the historic district/ river front and having an easy drive to the beach. The fenced in front yard was perfect for traveling with pets.
