Hi and thanks for your lovely review of our home. We are so pleased you had a nice visit with us. We would love to have you, your family and friends stay again with us.
Hope the baby is feeling better. We look forward to hearing from you soon. Remember ILM is usually very mild @ Thanksgiving, so perhaps that might be and ideal time for a repeat trip. Have a great day and thanks again.
Excellent place to stay. Easy access to Carolina beach and Wrightsville beach. Property maintained very well and neighborhood was very quiet.

Thank you so much for your review. I hope you were able to have a nice visit and great bday celebration for the little one. We are very pleased you enjoyed the house and the neighborhood. It's very relaxing in our area but yet close to so many points of interest. We look forward to you coming back to visit with us soon.
This house worked perfectly for our group of 5 that came for a wedding. Comfortable beds, nice quiet location, friendly and helpful owners. Would definitely stay again.

Thanks again and please keep us in mind for any of your friends that might be coming to the Wilmington area.
Excellent stay! The house was pristine clean, tastefully decorated and extremely comfortable in all respects. Located in a nice quiet neighborhood. Hosts were very responsive and friendly.

Joyce thank you for your review. We absolutely enjoyed meeting and hosting you and your family. You ladies were so sweet, pleasant and had excellet weather during your trip as well which is always a bonus. I'm glad you liked our neighborhood--it's centrally located to many things in the area which makes it a perfect fit for so many of our guests. We would really love for you and your family to visit with us again soon. Wishing all of you a Happy, Healthy Holiday season. :)
We had a great visit to Wilmington, made perfect with this property! The house itself was wonderful, and the swingset in the backyard - which had drawn us to the listing! - was a thrill for my toddler. You can't beat the location. Property owners were outstanding as well!

Thank you for the kind review. We are so pleased you had a great visit in our area and our home. It was a pleasure hosting you and your family. We would love to have you back soon as our guests.
Lisa and Eddie are awesome hosts as they always responded to me fairly quickly when I had a question. The house was clean and ideal for 4 adults and 2 toddlers, with the extra space in the backyard. The house is located in a nice and quiet neighborhood which is perfect for a family. The drive to the beach was less than 15 mins with shopping and restaurants nearby. If you’re looking for a nice, quiet place with hosts almost always readily available for any questions, this is the place for you. They were great.

Thank you for staying with us. We are pleased you enjoyed the house, found that is was close to many area attractions and was ideal for your party of 4 adults & 2 children. It was our pleasure having you and your family stay with us. I'm also glad we were able to accommodate you with your request for a late departure to allow you a leisurely check-out so you could enjoy our area just a bit longer before heading back home. Thanks again and we look forward to you returning soon.
Our son spent 10 yrs in Jacksonville in the Marines. We came from central IL to see him. It is so nice to have a beautiful home to relax and enjoy our time in. With Covid we didn't feel confortable being out in the general public, so it was really nice being comfortable sitting on the back deck or going for a walk in the nice quiet neighborhood. We will definately keep it in mind for our next trip.

Thank you Jolie for your kind review. We are so very happy you and your family were able to relax and spend some quality time together during this crazy COVID era. I agree the neighborhood is very quiet and is a safe haven from the bustle of everyday life. We would love to have you return again as our guest. Please also suggest our home to any of your friends and other family members. Thanks again and have a great Holiday Season.
Very disappointed to learn they had 13 people staying in the house. The reservation was for 2 adults & 2 children. They didn't communicate they were bringing more than the maximum allowed individuals to the home, which is very dishonest. They did leave the home clean & I was pleased with the condition of the home. I would not consider him again for any future reservations.
The house was perfect for our family of four! It was clean, nicely decorated, and had everything we needed over the holiday. Lisa and Eddie went above and beyond to provide a comfortable stay, including a welcome basket with goodies and bath bombs. We would definitely stay here again!

James and Lisa were welcoming, warm, accommodating hosts! Their property is lovely and in a great, centralized location between the beach and downtown. They went out of their way to make our stay special! If we return, we will be quick to stay at their property again!

Meredith, "Thank You" for your lovely review. We are beyond pleased and happy you had a pleasant stay in our home. We strive to make our guest feel very comfortable & relaxed while in our home. We agree the home is very convenient to many area attractions. It's also nice that the neighborhood is peaceful, quite and off the beaten path, but yet close enough to where you want/desire to be in town. We are also very pleased you had perfect weather for your son's wedding. Best Wishes to the Happy Couple. We would love to have you & your family return very soon to stay with us. Thanks again and have a wonderful day.
Very nice community! The property was very clean and not far from the beach!
Overall great experience with the property rental!

Thank you Miyoshi for your review. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay in our home. We agree the community the home is located in is very nice, quiet and a tranquil harbor for all who live & visit there. We are centrally located to Wrightsville Beach and Carolina Beach which makes it very easy to access them for a fun filled day of sand, sun and ocean activities. We hope you were able to enjoy the Wilmington area restaurants and other attractions because there's SO much to do in our area.....We look forward to having you, your family and friends return to visit us again soon. Thanks again.
We couldnt have asked for a better space or host for our stay while in town for vacation. Highly recommended!

We are so pleased you enjoyed your visit with us. We would love to have and your family return again soon and stay with us. Hopefully during your next visit, the weather will be nicer. I believe it was a bit rainy, but that did allow you the chance to visit the Flip and Fly and other indoor family venues during your time in our area. Wilmington has many family friendly attractions and of course the beaches are so refreshing. Thanks and again. Have a great day and looking forward to your return trip.
Lisa the owner is fantastic! We stayed during 4th of July Holiday. She left us cupcakes, glow sticks, and two bottles of wine! Wow, never have I ever had an owner go above and beyond. She was quick to answer all my questions about family friendly places to go and eat. She accommodated us with highchair, playpen, and even sent message asking if we needed a stroller during our stay. The house is located in a very nice neighborhood but is very close driving distance to beach and downtown area. If you are thinking about booking this house just do it now! You won’t regret it. Thank you for everything Lisa and James!

Tia thank you so much for your kind and warm review. I really enjoyed meeting you and your family at departure. We are so happy you enjoyed your time here and found the home to be a comfortable, relaxing place to spend your 4th of July celebration. I am also glad the children were able to enjoy the treats we left. We would love to have you and your family come stay with us again. Wilmington has so many attractions and it's hard to do everything you want in a short visit, so we look forward to your quick return to our area. Thanks again and have a wonderful day.
Lovely house and owners are very attentive. Nice quiet neighborhood , even near 4th of July! Cute little Boston Terriers next door too!

Kathryn we are very pleased you enjoyed staying in our home. Hopefully your grandchildren had a nice time playing on the swing set in the backyard, playing ping pong in the game room & playing with the beach toys during your visits to the beach. I'm glad you agree we are located in a pleasant neighborhood which allows our guest to kick back & really relax during their stay, but still close enough to many area points of interest. We hope you will return soon to the area and stay with us again. Please let your friends and family know we would love to have them stay with us as well. Thanks again and have a great day.
Our family really enjoyed our stay at Jasmine's Cottage. It was home away from home for us. Once we were settled we decided to stay another night. Thank you for your hospitality. We will definitely book another stay in the future. Many blessings to you!

We definitely would love to have you come back and stay with us again. Please let your friends and family know they are welcome to visit with us as well. Thanks again and we look forward to seeing you again very soon.
The home was beautiful, honestly even nicer than the listing images. Everything was very clean. You have everything you could need inside the home. The host lives right next store and she watched us very closely to the point that it made me uncomfortable. Overall enjoyed our stay despite some communication issues with the host.

First & Foremost; Thank you for the nice review on the property. We pride ourselves on providing a clean, safe & enjoyable home for all our guest to experience. Our home is located in a tranquil, quiet residential neighborhood. It's a safe haven for the residents of the community & our out of town guest. However, I too was a bit uncomfortable during your visit. We had clearly communicated prior to your arrival we live next door & would be available if needed. We also communicated the HOUSE RULES(which I feel those rules were not respected by members of your group)& our expectations during your time in the home.
I do value your feedback concerning your visit and trust that in the future you will communicate more accurately with any future host so as to "NOT" have communication issues. Thanks again and have a Happy and Safe New Year.
This was right in the middle of both my boys so location was perfect!! We used the back deck alot and had a fire the last night in backyard. Quiet/Beautiful neighborhood. We requested if it could be decorated for Christmas. Lisa went above and beyond to make it Beautifully decorated for us. We would highly recommend this place.

Thank you Tammy for your review. We are glad you were able to enjoy your time in our home and would love to have you as a return guest.
This well-maintained home is 6ish miles (less than a 15-min drive) from excellent Wilmington Beach public access with lifeguards, changing rooms, showers, shopping, pier, dining - you name it. Easy commute to all the neighboring beaches and Fort Fisher Aquarium as well. There are 3 decorated bedrooms which fit the four of us well (two adults and two teens). We also appreciated the 2.5 bathrooms. The back yard is fenced and large, with a grill and outdoor seating. There are two indoor dining tables, and TVs throughout — also Bose and Echo Dot in living room which is fun.
The owner responded quickly to my husband’s questions. Everything we needed to straighten up was provided, and let me tell you about the kitchen.
We went out to eat for the most part (vacation and great restaurants), but every pan, spice, utensil I needed at mealtime was there and then some. I brought ingredients and condiments, but wished I had olive oil and spices like the ones I have at home. Guess what? All provided and very much appreciated.
Full disclosure: This review is written in August 2020 during the Covid-19 pandemic. We were delighted to have a house to ourselves during social distancing as opposed to a “crowded” hotel. The beaches weren’t crowded and the restaurants were very vigilant so we felt safe leaving home for the first time in “forever.” I hope you also have the opportunity to enjoy this home away from home regardless of what we are in store for next....
All of what you need in a house nice deck and deck furniture... kitchen well equipped...cozy in the evenings in or outside

We look forward to having you, your friends & family return to stay with us again. I hope you managed to get some golf and fishing time in during your stay. Thanks again and hope to have your return again soon.
Needed to get away for the weekend and this place allowed us to do that. Almost all hotels were booked for the weekend so I was lucky to find this home. I forgot to add my 2 year old, it was my first time using this app for a rental and I was clicking through too quickly and the owner went above and beyond to get the pack n play that was advertised. It’s the cutest home and a good location. Lots of communication with owner. 10/10 recommended.
