The place is in a great, safe area, check in and check out was easy, and Wayne was communicative and prompt. The place was clean and had everything we needed! Thanks for the great stay!

I can not say enough good things about our stay. The neighborhood was charming and very walkable. Wayne and Bobby are amazing hosts, the property was immaculate. What was over the top as far as VRBOs was how homey and welcoming it was. We have a good amount of experience with these rentals and they are not all created equal! If you find yourself thinking about a stay in Wilmington, do yourself a favor and choose here. Also shout out to Bobby’s recommendation for Savor as a breakfast spot. You won’t regret this choice either.
