The house was adorable and clean; also well equipped. The beds were comfortable. We went to a concert and the venue was nearby. We did use an Uber. The house is also very close to downtown with tons of shops and restaurants. We ate lunch at Rebellion and it was delicious! We look forward to coming back and staying longer. The teen girls enjoyed Independence Mall which is also very close by. My nephew is attending UNCW so he drove in and hung out with us. We’ll definitely return! Very pleased! ##### Misty A. Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Raul W. 16 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful place to stay in Wilmington We stayed here for 3 nights during St. Patrick's Day weekend and had a wonderful time. The accommodations were very clean and well kept. The house has been nicely remodeled and provided a modern feel to this 100 year-old house. We loved the Keurig coffee maker and Donut Shop pods and Twinnings tea that really helped getting our mornings started. There are plenty of kitchen accoutrements if you want to cook here and the new BBQ on the back deck will take care of your grilling needs. Our hosts provided soaps and shampoos in the bathrooms and there's a new washer/dryer to do laundry. But the reasons we chose this over other places were the rocking chairs and swing on the porch. They did not disappoint as they provided a perfect place for relaxing in this quiet neighborhood at the end of a long day in Wilmington. We definitely will stay here again when we return to visit Wilmington. ##### Raul W.
