This property was in a quiet location with plenty of parking for our 3 cars (coming from 3 states). The house was clean, the beds very comfortable and it was exactly as advertised. After a long day out and about, we enjoyed the chance to regroup together at the firepit. This is now my #1 choice when I return to Wilmington.

The house was in a great central location, making it easy to check out the town and get to the beach quickly. Everything was clean and just as pictured. We had a little trouble with the AC and thermostat, but messaged our host and he was super responsive and figured it out right away. We had a great time and loved the house!

Great place
Convenient to area attractions, quiet, clean, information provided was extremely well organized. Great Communication. Would definately stay again if in that area. Can't remember the name of the nearby tiny roadside oldest zoo in the area, but initially looked a bit questionable, but gambled and we all had a great time. Animals and zoo seemed well kept. Don't judge the "book" by its cover. Tour of the Battleship was exceptional. Lighthouse was closed.

Bungalow
House was very clean and nice. The master bedroom bed was very comfortable. Yard needed a little cleaning up. But overall it was just what we needed.
