Great Hideaway

We had a great 4-night stay at Butterfly Hideaway. The neighborhood is very quiet but close to restaurants, stores, the riverfront and historical sites. We found this place perfect for us and our little dog. Would stay again if we’re in Wilmington again.

My wife and I spent two nights and we cannot recommend you stay here strongly enough. The facility is modern, comfortable, quiet, convenient and has everything you might want and then some. If giving 100 stars was possible we would do that. Stop looking and just stay here. Really.

Amazing gem a stones throw away from the Historic District

Had a wonderful four-nite time stay at the carriage house run by Wayne and Bobby. They thought of every little detail to make our stay worry free. The kitchen was fully equipped, the beds extremely comfortable, and there were even toiletries in case we forgot something as well as bones and doggie bags for our pups.

A 5-star experience

We've stayed in many rental properties during our travels, but this property stands out as one of our favorites. My wife and I and our dog were there for 10 nights. The location couldn't be better; a lovely, quiet and safe neighborhood in the heart of the historic district, a 5-minute walk to Front Street and the Riverfront with dining and retail options, and easy access by car to Wilmington's main arteries. The rental itself is hard to improve upon. It is well-equipped, appliances and cookware are new and high-end, climate control is easy to operate and the numerous windows with new dual-shades allowed us to keep the inside as bright or as dark as we needed.Wayne and Bobby are what hosts should be. Their home is on-site but apart from the rental. Communication with them was easy and responses were always within minutes, not hours. They are hands-off but easily accessible at any time. I could not have hoped for a better experience.

Great location for marathon

This was an adorable little cottage with everything we needed. The location was about 4 blocks off of the marathon route and we loved being able to have our dogs. No problems finding free street parking right in front of the house and easy places to walk and potty the dogs.

Great spot - would definitely return

Great location in historic area of Wilmington, close walking distance to restaurants, coffee shops, great record store etc. Hosts were great - we had a super minor issue (batteries dead in tivo remote - crisis!!). I told them we’d get batteries next AM and like 3 minutes later there was a basket outside the door with batteries (and candy!). Incredibly well appointed and comfortable- good space for 2 people would be tight with more. Wifi worked well

Wonderful Stay! Highly Recommended

We had a fantastic experience at this property! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by how clean, well-maintained, and beautifully decorated everything was. The location was perfect – close to local attractions but still quiet and peaceful. We also appreciated the little touches, like extra towels, toiletries, and the variety of board games for a night in. Overall, this property exceeded our expectations, and we would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable hassle-free getaway.

Great place, location and host!

Our children stayed here with their 2 dogs over Thanksgiving break while we celebrated with family in the area. The carriage house was immaculate, cozy, well stocked and in a great walking distance to downtown and the riverfront area. The host was very gracious to allow earlier check-in and the opportunity to stay a little longer past check out if needed be. I would definitely recommend this property!

Charm, location, and top-notch details!

Charming new construction in a gorgeous historic area, just blocks from the river walk. We loved the space and the location. The neighborhood is quiet, and there are blocks upon blocks of beautiful historic homes to explore. The hosts have thought of all the little details, including a great selection of coffee, microwave popcorn for an afternoon treat, and dog bones for our pup. There's a detailed guest guide with QR codes for local restaurants and bars. We had a fantastic dinner at a local hole-in-the-wall called Savorez, a great lunch at On Thyme, and enjoyed more good-eats along the river walk at the Pilot House and the George. Wayne and Bobby have created an inviting getaway spot to enjoy all that Historic Wilmington has to offer. We look forward to visiting again.

We stayed three nights with our adult daughter and two dogs and this was a perfect pet friendly place! Great location for walking to downtown restaurants and venues.
