This home is designed to help you relax the moment you walk in—combining cozy charm with modern touches that make every stay effortless.
The name “The Close Enough Retreat” says it all—you’re close to everything you want, while still enjoying a quiet space to unwind. Located just 3.6 miles from historic downtown Wilmington, you’ll have easy access to the Riverwalk, local shops, restaurants, and nightlife. When it’s time for the beach, Wrightsville Beach is only 8.2 miles away, and Carolina Beach is just 10 miles—giving you the best of both worlds.

Inside, the home features three comfortable bedrooms and two full bathrooms, making it perfect for families, couples, or small groups. Enjoy a fully equipped kitchen, comfortable living space, and thoughtfully designed interiors that make it easy to settle in and feel at home.
Step outside to your private backyard patio—one of the home’s standout features. Complete with a fire pit and grill, it’s the perfect place to unwind after a day at the beach, enjoy a meal outdoors, or relax under the stars in a quiet, fenced-in space.
Traveling with a larger group? Look no further than the neighboring property, Portside Retreat, located right next door—perfect for booking both homes together while still enjoying your own private spaces.
Guests choose The Close Enough Retreat for its unbeatable combination of location,

The property was very clean, described exactly as listed, kitchen nicely updated, roomy, well decorated, in quiet area, and close to everything. The owners were fantastic! When I needed to adjust my date they helped accommodate me! When I checked in the battery to smoke detector was beeping and they had someone over within 20 minutes changing the batteries in the evening on New Year’s Eve. Jerome and Jess were wonderful hosts! I would recommend them and their property to everyone visiting Wilmington!
