We had a great stay in this house...it was clean and felt new and modern, was well-furnished, and provided everything we needed for a week's stay. Comfortable king bed and nice bathrooms. The historic district where it is located is really a lovely area, and we walked down to the river district many times....very walkable. Good restaurants and bars and coffee shops nearby. Highly recommended for anyone coming to see a show at Greenfield Lake...it's only five minutes away. We will stay here again!

The house was immaculate and looks to be brand new. The AC worked great, water pressure was good, off street parking was very convenient. The location was so central to everything. About a half mile to market and front street where a lot of great restaurants are. Would definitely recommend this to anyone and would rebook next time we come to Wilmington.

Wonderful stay in Wilmington!

We had an amazing weekend at this VRBO in Wilmington! The house was absolutely gorgeous—beautifully decorated, spotless, and stocked with everything we could have needed. The beds were super comfortable, making for a restful stay. The location was perfect—just a short 15-minute walk or a quick 5-minute drive to downtown, which made exploring the area so easy. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and would absolutely book again in the future!

Family marathon getaway

Had a lovely stay during our visit for the Wilmington marathon. The house is just as described and pictured! Impeccably clean and so very comfy. We especially appreciated the coffee station and the candy was a nice treat! The location was perfect for a short stroll to the riverfront area with all the shops and restaurants nearby. Highly recommend!

Family Reunion Stay

The property was EXACTLY as depicted in the photos. Check in and check out was easy. We had everything we needed during our stay. The property was pristine; bedding was comfortable and the towels were plush! The care and details the host put into this home elevated our experience. Not to mention the neighborhood was nice and close to the downtown riverwalk area. I highly recommend this place when your visiting the Wilmington area.
