The PERFECT stay!

If you were impressed by the pictures … this home is even better in person! It was clean, welcoming, and the perfect place to entertain friends and family. The open layout invites conversation. We really appreciated the games provided as we had forgotten ours at home. We also so appreciated everything being there and ready for us to use! We will come back again

Extended stay perfect for us and our dog

We needed to extend our stay, and we were happy to have more time at Dennis and Lisa’s VRBO. They were incredibly accommodating, adjusting to the changing schedule of our home repairs. We felt like their home was our own, with a kitchen and laundry room that were well stocked, and rooms that were both comfortable and clean. Their fenced-in backyard was perfect for our dog and they even provided dog essentials like toys, bowls, etc. Whenever we have friends visiting Wilmington, we’ll definitely recommend Dennis and Lisa’s place!

Cozy clean stay in a great location

What a cute place in the perfect location! My husband, our dog and I stayed here for a couple of weeks while our home in Wilmington was being repaired, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The house was spotless and beautifully decorated, making us feel right at home. Our favorite parts of the stay included unwinding in the hot tub and enjoying a game of ping pong in the evenings. The location was absolutely ideal — as locals, we know Wilmington well, and this spot couldn’t be more perfectly located. It’s just 5 minutes to the beach, within walking distance to Mayfaire, and right across the street from Starbucks and several great restaurants. This place truly felt like the perfect blend of a getaway and home, and we couldn’t have been happier with our stay. Dennis and Lisa were exceptional hosts and very responsive. Thank you for sharing your beautiful space with us!

They understand the assignment!

Beautiful, relaxing and spotless! As soon as we walked in we all “wowed” the listing photos don’t capture the high end decor and vibe. Far above any of their competitors in the area. Every detail has been thought of, comfy beds, couches, stocked kitchen for staying in for dinner. Quick, easy drive to Wilmington Beach and Cape Fear. Perfect back yard to play with the dog and relax around a fire. Can’t wait to come back and stay longer!

We were very pleased!

Our family really enjoyed having this house as our home base during the Thanksgiving holiday. It was lovely, comfortable and well maintained. Our dogs were happy in the fenced back yard. The location was perfect for visiting family, shopping, etc. the property owners were very responsive and made certain we had everything we needed. I highly recommend this property. We plan to stay there again!

Beautiful Home Away from Home

What a great home! We felt comfortable as soon as we got there and it was so convenient having all the amenities that are provided: plenty of fresh towels, toiletries, hand soap at every sink, dish soap, laundry detergent, etc. The house is beautiful, well decorated and plenty of space for everyone to spread out. We loved the kitchen, it was well stocked with utensils, pots and pans, grill gear and everything else we could possibly need. The location is perfect for spending time in Wilmington or visiting the local beaches. I love that there were even beach towels provided. Thank you for having us, we will be sure to recommend to friends and family for a place to stay!
