The house is very clean and spacious. It's on a quiet street. We were in town to visit our UNCW student. It is fairly close to the campus. Just a few things that could've made the stay better: more kitchen utensils, we had to wash forks, spoons, and plates after every meal so we could use them for the next, same with wash clothes, one per person provided. We had to wash every night for the next shower. Also somewhere to lay suitcases or nightstands in the bedrooms would be a great addition. The screen porch is nice.

The whole house was very clean and up to date. Furniture was very nice and comfortable. Bathrooms are very important to me and both of these bathrooms exceeded my expectation by a rental. Bathroom towels were new and plush; could have used a couple more hand towels. Definitely the owner takes pride in his property. Positively a re-rental on a future Wilmington visit.

Clean and tidy home with close access to the beach and other area attractions. The fenced in backyard was perfect for my dog. The Host was responsive to my inquiries. I was visiting family in the Wilmington area and this home met all my needs for the week. I would recommend this home for those visiting the area.

Great for Wilmington stay

Our family stayed here for an extended weekend while attending a UNCW camp. The neighborhood was pleasantly quiet; the house was cute, clean and stocked with basic needs; the owner was responsive and checked in on us during the stay (via VRBO/email) to make sure we were settled; the check in/out process was simple; the home & back yard are super pet friendly; it is very conveniently located to Wilmington shops, restaurants, the local water park & arcade, UNCW, and the beach! We would definitely stay here again!!

Loved the open feeling of this home. Older but very tastefully updated with all the amenities we needed. Walkable neighborhood for our dogs, also had beautiful Long Leaf Park nearby. Close to restaurants and shopping. Easy drive to Wrightsville Beach. Loved the screened in outdoor room. Very happy with our stay.

Restful Retreat

We were in town for a funeral, and found this home to be a lovely place to recharge and rest. The screened in porch is the perfect spot for a quiet breakfast or listening to the sounds of nature in the evening. The house was clean and spacious for us. It is also very central so it was easy for us to get around town. Definitely recommend

Great spot close to everything.

This is a great house with a fenced in back yard incase you bring your dog - we did - it made life very easy. Three bedrooms, outdoor screened in porch with large TV for hanging out and nice living room/kitchen space. Very clean - we might have been close to the first renters. Very close to the beach, UNCWilmington campus and short drive to downtown.
