Great place for a weekend in Wilmington. Very pet friendly woth a fenced in back yard. About .5 miles or a 10 monute stroll to all the hustle and bustle of downtown Wilmington. Great hosts, perfect place and wonderful dining
This was a nice cottage in a great location near downton and convenient to the rest of the Wilmington area. The neighborhood made.for some nice walks looking at all of the historic homes.
Great little place. Nice older house, good upgrades, etc. The back yard wasnt that great for the dogs honestly. There is no grass only plants, super small. If owners would install King bed in the bedroom it would be much better to accommodate. Overall the owners were great and very easy going and communicative. I thought a little overpriced for area, and accommodations all round. Id still give them 4 stars!
Came for the Ironman. Just me my daughter and SIL, perfect size and location was great. East walk to Riverwalk and Front Street. As a VRBO host myself I would recommend this property
Great property, super comfortable for me and my French bulldog. Neighborhood was great and walking distance to everything I needed. Backyard was wonderful with a pet.
My wife and our dogs had a fantastic stay. The neighborhood is walking distance to some cool places, and an easy drive to Wilmington beach. Would recommend this to anyone. Host were easy to communicate and work with.
We enjoyed staying here as it was close enough to walk to downtown but far enough to be quiet at night. There are a few spots within a block or so that you can walk to for a quick bite or drink and hiwire allows dogs inside if you’re staying with your fur baby. Nice spacious house with ceiling fan above the bed. Would stay here again!
We loved the Coastal Cottage! Loved the home and the decorations. Also loved the front porch swing and rocking chairs. Had a wonderful time with our family of four and 2 dogs.We loved the location. We were able to walk to breweries and restaurants. Matt was such a pleasure to work with. He answered any and all questions promptly! Can’t wait to stay in this cute Coastal Cottage again!
Pleasant cottage, well equipped in City neighborhood. Good access to historic area and beaches. Inside was very clean and enjoyable space. Fenced in yard could be nice but was a mess, including leaves, dog poop and broken glass.
We stayed for two nights at the cottage. It was very clean and well stocked with everything you would need. Very cute decor too. It’s close to everything so it was easy to walk everywhere. Matt was very responsive to our questions. We had a great stay!

The backyard was a mess, I did sweep it but needs some attention. I walked my dog on a leash in the neighborhood,The front porch had not been cleaned of leaves including the furniture,The inside was neat and clea
Cute retro touch! Sparkling clean. Well maintained. Easy access. Great location, easy walk to restaurants, shops. Thank you so much! We will keep this on our list of places for Wilmington and share with friends.
We are a family of three with two dogs. We are HUGE Dawson's Creek fans and that's what we did was all things Dawson's creek. The property was about 20 min leisurely walk to the riverwalk. So much easier to walk then drive due to the cost of parking. Town is very dog friendly. Many restaurants had outdoor seating and allowed dogs. We ate at Front Street Brewery, Kilwins for dessert and The George on the river. By the river there are nats so bring some bug spray. Overall the house was just what we needed and very accessible. A must stay!
