We enjoyed our stay very much. The place was super clean and nicely decorated. The only downside was a lack of an ice maker that works, but we just bought ice. Thanks for sharing your home.

Great place for a couple! Bed was so comfortable, and place was spotless. We were in town for a wedding and it was perfectly located to local restaurants, the city, and the beach.

Property looks just as listed. Clean rooms, comfortable bed, well appointed kitchen, helpful to have laundry available. Great little coffee shop & eatery "It's Coffee Time" on Wrightsville Ave, just a short stroll from the Hideaway if no time to make your own at the property. Very easy to get to downtown Wilmington or the lovely Wrightsville Beach.

Peaceful stay

Needed a place to stay during a family member hospital stay. This was the perfect place. Nice, quiet neighborhood. Hosts are very attentive when needed. I will definitely keep this place on my list

Cute place. Love the privacy and the ease of access. Hosts very responsive. Two minor issues: there’s a gap in the front door weatherstripping, so bugs can sometimes get in, and the tap seemingly has well water that smells a little sulfurous (which is weird since it’s a city of Wilmington property)

It was cozy, comfortable, spacious, affordable and close by to stores & attractions. Stand up Shower door wouldnt stay shut. And the bugs were an issue. Suggest to spray inside as we'll. Outside of that our stay was good.

Thank you for your helpful feedback. We will have handyman replace the shower door closure. We also have Orkin out monthly to spray inside and out. Sounds like with the rain a special trip is needed. Thank you again
