Awesome Host!

This place was perfect for my mom, daughter, and I. Although there were a couple of minor issues (sheets & lights) when we arrived, Steve took care of things immediately and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was great. Would stay here again!

Great Location, very clean space.

Very clean, not even a dust bunny under the bed which was comfortable. Nice amenities. Charming claw foot tub. Must be able to go up stairs. Location is awesome. Quiet and very walkable to downtown. Property owner reached out well in advance to provide check-in and contact info. Seamless check-in. Highly recommend.

Lovely property. Responsive hosts. Nicely located. Given the presence of Gen X in Wilmingtons’s water supply, a couple of bottles of water in the fridge would have been nice upon my arrival before I had a chance to shop. My other stays in Wilmington have included that.

Great location for soccer tournament

My husband, teenage son and I stayed the weekend here for a soccer tourney, just 4 miles from the unit. We enjoyed having a kitchen to make breakfast each morning. I loved going for a morning run from the unit to the Riverwalk. Steven was very responsive

Perfect location!

This historic house is so cute! It's right off of the expressway so easy to get to. It is 2 blocks from the water and downtown area. There is the cutest coffee shop right around the corner. All of the houses in this neighborhood are breathtaking! The porch is so nice to sit on and take it all in! Host was amazing!

Charming clean, cozy and convenient apartment in a great location. Host was communicative, checking in and parking was a breeze, bed was super comfortable and the location was a 2 minute drive from the downtown event we were there to attend. Would definitely book again.

Everything we needed!

I lived in Wilmington for 12 years and I miss it so much. My husband and I take a trip whenever we can and this time we went down to celebrate our anniversary. This place was absolutely perfect! Right in the heart of historic downtown, we were able to walk around and enjoy the city. The little balcony was perfect for drinking coffee in the morning. The host was extremely attentive and responded immediately whenever we had a question. We would absolutely stay here again.

Loved the condo!

Everything was great. I am handicapped and the stairs were long and steep. I don’t recall the ad even mentioning 2nd floor or a difficult long stairwell. Still had a great time. It would have been nice to have the option decide knowing that. Thank you, Kelly

Historic Half run and visiting daughter at UNCW

Needed a place to stay downtown, was running the Wilmington Historic Half early Sat morning. Arrived late Friday evening. Apartment so cute and clean. Great location. Easy to get into with private back stairs. They are steep, so be aware if that’s a physical issue. But there is a front door entrance as well. Apartment was perfect, had everything we needed and bed slept great! We did have a family emergency and had to leave a day early and hosts were super responsive and understanding. We will book here again and again for future visits. Can’t wait for different seasons too!!

This is a delightful property on the 2nd floor. It is in the historic district of lovely old homes, and less than 10 minutes to the riverwalk. Steven kept us well informed about check-in and promptly answered any questions. A great stay in a well-equipped apapartment.

Good location and good communication

Simple vacation rental, no frills, exact as the listing. Good if you’re in town for a wedding. The ac unit in the bedroom is very noisy so we turned it off, the unit would probably have been way too hot in the summer months for us. Something to keep in mind if you are noise or temp sensitive. The owner is very quick at responding and provides good directions. Plus a free parking space behind the home!
