Not worth the price, but we made the most of it.
The house is well-worn. Not up to other vrbo property standards, although the washer, dryer, refrigerator, hot tub, and outdoor shower were all great. The yard needs major attention and sprucing up. Most house windows are completely obscured by bushes. Grass is sparse. Pool fountains not working and need to be cleaned out. However some of my family enjoyed the pool. Bed in master BR needs updating. Owner was very responsive to all of our texts.

The house is fairly rundown. The hot tub, the pool, and the outdoor shower were great. I felt the bedrooms were oversold. We were three adult men. Had we’d been four it would not have been comfy.

Very disappointed
My family and I rented this home for my sons wedding. To say the least, this home did not meet our expectations at all. I’ve stayed in many VRBO’s before this one and I would have to say this was the worst. The whole house was in terrible need of an update. The original wood floors creaked and cracked with every step you took. There is no way anyone can sleep though someone walking around the house if you had too. There was mold in the shower and in the water dispenser on the refrigerator, roaches dead and alive in the house and very dusty. The ceiling fan in one of the spare rooms was coated with dust and was so old that it looked like it was falling apart. The other spare room had dog hair all over the bedding that we had to wash the next morning. Needless to say I will not be staying there again.

Great Yard
The home was very nice and close to downtown. The yard and pool were amazing. My dog loved running around the yard. The home is a little older but it is kept up. The fountains on the pool weren’t working which was a little disappointing. The owner was very easy to get ahold of and answered all questions quickly.

Awesome Backyard & Fantastic Location
Very cute home in a safe neighborhood.
Our family (dogs included), enjoyed this quaint home and took full advantage of the private back yard.
The covered picnic area with grill & sink, and fun pool rocked! We spent most of our time in the hot tub. We were surprised to find an outside shower to rinse off after playing at the beach all day.
The kitchen was a nice size & well equipped. We also appreciated plenty of linens & towels. The kids even made a new friend, a very sweet neighborhood kitty cat!
The property was located in an older safe neighborhood, with great tree’s. The house was less than 10 minutes from the beach, and attractions/shopping.
Great place to relax and chill out! We were greeted by fresh cut flowers from a little on site garden and a kind “welcome” note upon arrival.
We would book here again. Thanks to the owners for sharing such a cool place.

A great 3 week stay
We recently spent three weeks here escaping the cold New England weather. We found the house, while older, to be quite charming. The location was great, very easy to get to downtown Wilmington as well as Wrightsville beach. The owners have changed the dining room furniture which now includes a sturdy table with seating for six. A love seat has also been added to the living area which increases seating there. The backyard is beautiful with the pool and chase lounges and we thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub.
During our stay we liked being able to walk to Trader Joe’s as well as Longleaf Park.
The owner and property manager were both very friendly and extremely easy to work with.

Wilmington Vacation!
This property fit exactly what we were looking for. It was secluded enough to have privacy and the small town vibe. The pool was amazing during the hotter temperature days and the outdoor area was easy to utilize for dinners and social gatherings. The beach was only about 7 minutes away and was easily accessible. It was a great stay!!

Family Getaway
The property was convenient to everything we needed. Nice cozy older home that has had some updates, but was sufficient for our family needs while celebrating Thanksgiving. Two things to consider: the dining room table is a high-top so not conducive to people that may not be able to navigate higher seating; those that aren't "tech savvy" or aren't familiar with apple tv may have trouble navigating the television, and there isn't access (that we could find) to local news/weather. I would recommend a "welcome" book that has instructions as some renters may not be familiar with some of the great amenities this property offers. I will say the owner was very responsive and helpful with any questions.

1/2 marathon stat
We were happy with the house and outside amenities. It was located in a great neighborhood with easy access to local attractions and restaurants . The only issues where we couldn’t get the grill to light. We didn’t have extra trash bags and dishwasher soap. Plus instructions on how the TV works would be helpful. Due to so many people using different TV systems it’s very hard to figure out how each one works. Over all we would stay again and would recommend to anyone.

Great location as we visited both downtown Wilmington and Wrightsville Beach frequently. Close grocery stores and amazing park down the street a bonus. Backyard is the best thing about this property and worth every penny. The private pool was perfect.
