Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Very nice and clean property. We loved everything about it and would definitely stay here again. There were only two things that surprised us. First, there was no coffee in the house, we had to go get our own Kcups for the Kurig which needed to be cleaned thoroughly, it had old brown water sitting in the reservoir. This surprised us because every place we’ve ever stayed has always had coffee available. Second, we ran out of Kleenex. There were only a couple left in the box when we arrived. Otherwise the place is perfect.

We had a nice stay. House is nice in a nice neighborhood. As described. It would have been nice to have a starter coffee for us. Some issues: no WiFi the entire time. Communication was non existent from owners. We asked questions, got no reply. Checkout was at 10am. Maids showed up at 9:30am.

Avoid at all cost

We stayed at this property over Thanksgiving. We do not recommend this place: The couch has a strong odor, as well as the blankets provided to cover the couch. We had to go out and buy our own towels since the towels provided are so dirty they are gray (supposed to be white). We also saw that there is no difference between the bath towels and the dog towels so if you stay here definitely bring your own. The grass in the front and back yard is also very long and has not been mowed in sometime so makes it impossible for kids to play outside. We had an uneventful stay and end up leaving a day early. After our departure, the owners attempted to tell us that the highchair had a tear in it, and it was our responsibility. This like many fixtures in the house was very old, and it felt like they were attempting to get us to pay for items we hardly touched , let alone damaged. Please be aware that when booking this property, there is high likelihood that they will attempt to get you to pay for an old item in the house, claiming damage to old outdated items. If you do stay here make sure to take pictures or video of the whole house before and prior to your departure! We have stayed at multiple rentals over the years and if we had really damaged something we wouldn't have a problem paying for it. But it is completely unfair to try to make us responsible for something we didn't damage.

Ironman triathlon stay

We came to Wilmington for a triathlon and found this place. Close to race but away from the traffic. Was a hidden gem!!! Found out, after talking to locals, that our location in Monkey Junction, is a favorite spot!!! Not only was location amazing but our hosts had fast communication with us when we needed it!

Too dirty for our tastes

Looked like months of hair in the house, especially in the bathrooms. Even after we cleaned it, it came back. It may have been in the AC too. One of the bunk beds had a food wrapper and pieces of leaves in it although it was made. Food near the back door with ants on it. Had to clean the coffee maker before using it. The kitchen sink was dirty. The mats in both showers have mildew on them. The shower curtain in the master bath is nasty. The rug in the living room has stains in it. The chairs on the porch are dirty. The cleaning fee we paid seems wasted.

My daughter got married in Wilmington the weekend of Ian. The owners worked with us during this special time. The house was even prettier than any of the pictures! The decor was beautiful and the house was super clean! Definitely great location as well! We would absolutely stay again if we go to Wilmington. We have stayed at many VRBO’s at different places and this place the owners were the friendliest and the house exceeded expectations! Highly recommend

Property is conveniently located between Wilmington proper or beaches. We visited both and really enjoyed both. For Wilmington, we noticed NO parking fees on Sunday or after 6:30pm during our trip. The property is as advertised with most appliances appearing new- huge washer and dryer; both look spankin’ new. Cozy fenced backyard with chairs, table and fire chiminea... Loved our visit.
