The house was immaculately cleaned with a very warm decor that made us feel at home quickly. The location of the house in Historic Wilmington was perfect for walking downtown for restaurants, bars and other things to do. We also found it very easy to get to and from Wrightsville Beach. The addition of a beach umbrella and a couple chairs was a lovely bonus.The screened in porch in the back was one of my favorite spots. Sitting out there one morning I was visited by a very colorful friend (see pic)Karen was very responsive and communicative throughout the duration of our stay. Would highly recommend and will likely stay here again as our son will be attending UNCW next fall! ![Look closely at the knot on this tree. This was taken from the screened in back porch. Loved it!](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/b1c62a91-2a4d-46e3-a9d0-f844ea2ca62c-1752852202330.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Zach L.

We had plenty of space, it was the perfect size for the 4 of us adults to relax. The location was convenient to everything we wanted to do. Neighborhood was quiet and charming. Property manager, Karen was caring and helpful! It was a comfortable pleasure to stay here. I would recommend this home! However I would also recommend stocking the kitchen with a few items like foil and ziplock bags, cleaning the ice machine occasionally and fixing the latch on the dishwasher. There will always be little glitches… Thanks for a great stay! ##### Michelle K.

We loved having quiet gatherings on the front porch. The house is tastefully decorated, and provided everything we needed for our family gathering. Loved this house! ##### Cecilia R.

Everything was in perfect working order, plenty of towels and paper supplies. We were visiting with my 87 yo mother so weren’t able to do a lot of walking but for a younger group this house is located in a quiet neighborhood but a very comfortable walking distance to the downtown area. We would absolutely stay here again when visiting Wilmington. ##### Mary B.

We wanted to spend more time with our kids and be somewhere warmer than VT during the month of January.This was our 1st visit to Wilmington. The house is charming, well equipped (e.g. kitchen utensils), and exactly as described in the listing, located on a cobble stone street in the Historic District, and a short 10 - 15 minute walk to many restaurants, breweries, and the river walk. My only regret is that we didn't stay for an extra week, because the weather in VT when we returned was cold and snowy while Wilmington was close to 70 degrees! ##### Tim K.

Location good, quiet and walking distance to cape fear river. We never used the oven but someone used the self clean and didn’t wipe it out, doesn’t look clean with all the white sediment and oven door handles as dirty. Overall remains 5 stars ##### Sandra D.

Quiet, charming, quite clean and roomy home! Very good quality finishes (I'm a former trim carpenter) and work inside. A couple of trains in the middle of the night, but otherwise amazingly quiet and comfortable! We were greeted by a neighborhood cat and entertained by the squirrels while there..! Parking wasn't bad, only had to park down the street once. Had a little mixup with check in initially but was straightened out promptly, no issues. We had a terrific visit and this home made it all the more special! ##### Hobert H.

I came here 25 years after she passed away to meet second cousins and their children for the first time. I chose this beautiful house purposely in the historic district and large enough that I could have one or two friends over at a time from various parts of my life: college, graduate school, and the U.S. Army. All of them loved the house as much as I did and we were extremely comfortable. The location was perfect for walking down to the river and eating at so many wonderful restaurants. ##### Kathryn I.
