Overall good place to rest your head during vacation but the pool and hot tub both were pretty dirty and was unable to enjoy either of them, so that was a let down and unexpected

Not very clean, you are asked to clean sinks and toilet yourself, pool was very dirty, location is not ideal. For the price, a hotel is best!

Relaxing Getaway

Cottage was welcoming and comfortable. The location was great to find places to eat. The list of places nearby was very helpful. We swam in the pool a few days as the temps were in the 90s. We spent alot of time in the cottage with the air conditioning because of the heat.

Dog friendly although we did not bring ours. Cottage was clean with all the necessities that we could have needed. Bed was comfy and pillows perfect. Although located on a main road it was very quiet and we slept well. Easy to get to places to eat and downtown Wilmington. Host left us a bottle of wine (yummy) and a couple sweets. Host responded quickly to all inquiries. Right out the front door is pool, hot tub, sitting area and fire pit. Only issue we had was on the 1st night in finding the address (numbers a bit jumbled on pole) and driveway in the dark but that was it. Will absolutely be reaching out for future visits.

Perfect Getaway

Perfect place for a getaway! My boyfriend and I got to take bane my German Shepherd on his first vacation. The home was exactly as expected and perfect for our needs the grounds were beautiful and romantic I wish could have brought all of it home as it became my happy place. We have talked about future visits and rebooking. For us the hosts and this cottage was the perfect place. Thank you for providing such great service.

Worked out good. I did not cook at the property. My concern was the turf condition because it rained and I didn't want to trash the place because of mud from the dog. We used the back for potty runs and I cleaned her feet when we came in, so it worked out. Unfortunately it rained during our entire stay but we still enjoyed his unit. I was able to log on to Fubo so I could watch football.

Great for a weekend

Property manager took a little while to respond to texts but overall we had a good stay. We went for the weekend. The building is like a tiny home on the back of his property. We were able to take our small dog. And there are obvious amenities for guests with dogs (dog bowls for food and treats).

Cute and Cozy

This spot is perfect if you want to explore Wilmington and the surrounding beaches. Conveniently located for exploring the North Carolina Coast. It's also perfect if you just need a space to get away and relax.

The cottage was cute. Wasn’t entirely aware that the location is completely in a persons backyard, but it did not affect the stay. Pool was amazing, cottage was cozy and adorable, didn’t have any issues. Would return!
