We enjoyed our stay at Candy Land. The rental had a lot of extra things that most rentals we’ve had in the past did not (coffee, creamer, shampoo, conditioner, etc.). We definitely will stay here again next time we are in the area.
The host was very accommodating and responsive, which made everything easy from check-in to check-out. The home was clean, well maintained, and stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The beds were comfortable, allowing us to rest well each night. Overall, it was a relaxing and enjoyable experience, and we would absolutely recommend this place to others and would be happy to stay here again.
Clean and very comfy place to stay. The bathrooms and kitchen were great ans decor was cheerful. We were able to walk to places downtown and also walk to Oakdale Cemetery. Bellamy Mansion is only 8 blocks away and there are many local pubs and restaurants within a few blocks.

Location was perfect for a concert we attended. The house was clean and provided enough room for our group. Our host was very friendly and available if needed.
Our stay was great and rental as expected. The house is older, but was clean and decorated nicely. Lots of amenities like soft towels, pillows, toilet paper, trash bags, etc. Host was highly responsive. Would stay again!
I booked this place for my fiancé and her daughters. They love One Tree Hill as does everyone in this town apparently lol. It’s in the perfect location right near all of the sites that were on the show. They loved all of the food options in the area. Most of all they loved this placed. They loved the candy themed rooms and that it had everything they needed for their stay. Luke was an amazing host and answered all questions and was quick to respond. 10/10 would definitely stay here again!
This property was well cared for, well stocked with essentials, and most importantly, great location to businesses in Wilmington. We all agreed we would stay here again!
We enjoyed staying here very much. The interior was clean, well appointed, and exactly as presented in the listing. There were a few bars and restaurants just around the block, in an easy walk. We gave four instead of five stars, only because of our check in process - our door code did not work, and my text chat with the host was slow to respond in the moment. I had to call the VRBO help number. After waiting on hold for a few minutes we did get a secondary code which did work, so it ended well. My only other caution is for mobility challenged people, that the front steps outside were a bit steep for me, although we made it work. Other than that, the host was very kind and answered all my questions. Really nice, comfortable house for our family of five adults. Recommend
This location did not disappoint. They answered every question we could have asked in advance and the pictures are super accurate. Who definitely rebook again.
I booked this place last minute for a local concert and could not have been happier. Luke was an excellent host and everything was as advertised. I will definitely be staying here again next time I come to Wilmington!
We were in Wilmington for a long weekend. I knew about the arts district but never stayed there. It’s a great area to stay! Lot’s of small, local neighborhood bars/restaurants.The house was very clean and reflected exactly what was in the pictures online. The owner was very responsive and helpful throughout the stay.
It was a nice little spot and close to the ocean. I didn't enjoy being so close to so many houses but when you are within walking distance to a beach you don't mind as much.It is an older
Loved our stay. Luke was a great host. House is located within walking distance to just about everything downtown. Dog friendly. Hope to come back soon.
