We had a wonderful stay- the home was spacious for my family of 4. It has a fenced yard for your fur babies. Plus it has a basketball net for some outdoor fun. The house was clean with all the essentials we needed for our stay. The beds were comfy and the location was great for us!

My family an I had a wonderful stay. The house is small but very charming. Michael has done a great job making sure that everything is as should be to make your stay a great experience. The fenced in yard was perfect for the dogs and they had a great time running around and exploring it. We would definitely stay here again the next time we come down to Wilmington.
