Absolutely wonderful historical bungalow.
Cannot recommend this host and home highly enough. Host was responsible, welcoming, and went above and beyond. Home was utterly charming, comfortable, and perfectly located near downtown Wilmington. We would come back in a heartbeat.

Good place to stay in Wilmington
Since there hasn't been a review for a while, I wanted to provide one for our end of September stay. It is a lovely historical home, with great front and back porches, and is within walking distance to everything downtown Wilmington offers. The house was very clean inside, dogs are allowed, and the host was quick to respond when we had an issue finding the wifi code. Parking is on the street, but we didn't have an issue parking in front of or close to our house. However, the house is in need of some maintenance. and the condition doesn't quite match the photos in the listing. In particular, the front yard is overgrown with weeds, rocks, and branches, and multiple items shown in photos are missing. The heavy iron gate, while beautiful, has an issue making it extremely hard to open and close, and some basic items, like kitchen towels, dishcloths, and bathmats, are needed. Hopefully these will be addressed since it's a great little house that puts you close to everything you want to do downtown.

Cozy Cottage
This was our second time visiting Wilmington. We selected this property party because of its closeness to the downtown area and it did not disappoint! It was so easy to get to the boardwalk and downtown restaurants and bars. The property had everything we needed for our stay, including visitor guides and suggestions on where to go. The check-in process was super easy as well. I would recommend thus property to anyone looking to spend time in the Wilmington area.

Lovely historic cottage!
We fell in love with this charming historic cottage in Wilmington. The place has every convenience needed while maintaining the beautiful old character. The location is close enough to walk to everything. Our favorite restaurant from our visit is just a few minutes walk up Castle. The best part of the space was the back porch. We enjoyed sitting out there whenever we were just relaxing at the property.
The best part of was that we were able to bring our pups on our special 25th anniversary getaway. Thank you!!!
