A Perfect Home Away from Home
Our family of four thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this home when visiting Wilmington for the holidays and a school tour. Perfectly situated with easy access to downtown, restaurants, and stores. Comfy couch for us all to enjoy football and movies over the Thanksgiving weekend. Hugely recommend the Flying Machine Oyster Bar in Wrightsville beach - The "Tower" fish sandwich is amazing. And closer to the house, definitely hit up Folks Cafe.

Definitely choose this one
Property is in excellent location within walking distance to food, coffee and shops on Castle street as well as to downtown Wilmington. Safe area for families. The home is well maintained with lots of space to spread out. The king bed had a great mattress and soft sheets and blankets. Owner notified us at checkin of a repair that needed to be made and worked w us on a convenient time. Room in the back yard for our small dog to run around and plenty of sidewalks nearby for longer walks. The houses are close together in this section of downtown Wilmington, but we never heard any noise from neighbors. We were able to fit two cars here - one in the side space and one in front of house (Sequoia fit both places). We landed here after our original rental nearby had no water and this owner was so helpful in answering my questions about the water line repair situation, and getting us booked quickly. 100% recommend and would stay here again.

Very clean and Comfortable in beautiful Wilmington NC
Our family (an extended family of six) spent two very comfortable nights in this perfect size home. We were all extremely impressed with the cleanliness of the entire home. The towels and bed linens were super clean and comfortable. Our host Cherie was fantastic with our booking and follow up questions. Location was convenient and everything went very smoothly. Great Visit. We would certainly book again!! Thanks

Great place
We loved our stay. The house is lovely and had everything we needed. Super clean and nicely decorated. Having 2.5 bathrooms was a big plus. Close to downtown and very convenient to everything we wanted to do. The only downside was that coffeemaker was broken but we figured out a workaround. We would definitely stay here again.

Nice home in nice quiet street
We had a wonderful stay here in Wilmington. We had plenty of room, the house was clean and exactly as pictured. The owner was very responsive with any questions or concerns, even during our stay. Downtown was about a 15 minute walk, and a little less than a mile which worked out great. Definitely recommend!

Beautiful property
We loved staying at this beautiful home. The beds were extremely comfortable and seating options were plentiful and comfy in the communal living space. We have some challenged with the key-less entry but Cherie was quick to help with those. The only negative was that there was no coffee pot which meant we had to go out and get coffee every morning which was about 20 dollars a day for 5 days to accommodate our coffee drinkers. We would definitely stay here again. Walkable to downtown and a beautiful neighborhood.

Great location near the historical district and riverwalk.
The rental was very comfortable for our family stay. Loved the large comfortable sofa and large screen TV in the living room, open kitchen to eating area with table and 6 chairs. The kitchen was well stocked with spices and other common supplies. Bedrooms were nicely decorated with firm mattresses. The host was easy to get ahold of for answering questions and responded quickly. All in all we had a great stay at this home.

Perfect spot in Wilmington
We loved our stay in Wilmington! The house is beautifully done and is convenient walk to downtown/riverwalk. It is also very quiet on a charming side street. We loved that it was pet friendly but was still so clean. Our host was very communicative and responded promptly to any questions we had. The whole house was very cozy and comfortable - the master bed was better than any hotel we stayed in! I think the only suggestion would be some proper kitchen knives - we did cook a few meals while we were there and that was the only thing lacking in the kitchen, otherwise we had everything we needed. Highly recommend and we hope to stay again in the future!

Nice house on a quiet, family friendly street
The family stayed here while our daughter attended UNCW orientation. The house completely met our expectations! It was clean, well organized, and had a nice floor plan!! The couch with the large footstool was especially nice for the evening wind down!! The location was ideal as well, with downtown only a few blocks away; we enjoyed venturing downtown and eating at some of the different local restaurants. We brought our dog along and enjoyed walking around the historic neighborhoods and checking out all of the old houses!! Overall, a great house in a great location!! Would definitely stay here again!!

I'm originally from North Carolina but now live in Georgia, and I love traveling along the East Coast, from the mountains of Tennessee to the Outer Banks. Hosting allows me to combine my passion for travel with my love of making others happy. There’s nothing better than seeing guests create lifelong memories, and I truly believe that some of the best moments in life happen while exploring new places. I’m thrilled to be a part of those experiences!

Why they chose this property

I chose downtown Wilmington because it perfectly blends historic charm with vibrant energy, and it’s where I grew up. The neighborhood has a rich history, with beautiful architecture and cobblestone streets, while also offering an exciting variety of restaurants, shops, and entertainment options along the scenic Cape Fear River. What I enjoy most is the lively yet welcoming atmosphere—you can stroll along the riverfront, visit local boutiques, or grab a bite at a cozy café, all within walking distance. It’s a wonderful spot for both relaxation and exploration, with something for everyone.

Located right in the heart of downtown Wilmington, the property offers easy access to the riverfront, restaurants, and shops, all within walking distance.
