Lovely Historic 2 bedroom steps to Riverwalk -Fully stocked!

Ever pondered what it would be like to live in a 1901 home? And have all the amenities you need? Come stay in the nicest area of historic district. Stroll through history 3 blocks to get to the River Walk & downtown. 20 min drive to beach. Blocks from many wedding venues, Brooklyn Arts District, Convention Center, Microbreweries, wine bars and Local art galleries. Downstairs is decorated with modern mid century upscale furnishings. My fav: Imported Teak root dining table. Relax on front porch and feel at home! Each bedroom has a super comfy queen. Air mattresses and cots also available if you need. 24/7 access to myself and my assistant. We do things the right way! Full kitchen stocked with pots pans and utensils. Drip coffee machine and Keurig stocked with tons of pods. High quality sheets and linens galore.

Clean and comfortable. Great location. The closets were hard to use due to hideabeds, bedding, and a pack and play being in them but everything was clean and working well. The host communicated well through our stay and the matresses were wonderful.

Perfect Family Stay — Beautiful Home Steps from the Riverwalk

Perfect for our family of five! Spacious apartment with two bedrooms connected by a short hallway and bathroom — worked great for us, but note one bedroom is accessed through the other. The kitchen and the rest of the home were incredibly well stocked, and the dining and living rooms were beautiful and comfortable.Unbeatable location in the historic district, just a few blocks from the Riverwalk. Street out front can be busy, but parking was easy with a spot behind plus plenty of street parking.Great communication with the hosts and smooth check-in/check-out. Highly recommend for a Wilmington stay!

Gorgeous historic home in a beautiful neighborhood, close to restaurants and the Riverwalk! It was clean, comfortable and very welcoming, with lots of charm. Wish we could have stayed there longer and would definitely return to this house. Communication with the host could not have been better!

My husband and I traveled with our two children to Wilmington for 5 days. This property was a perfect location within walking distance to everything including the restaurants, riverwalk and children’s museum. The home is old but kept up with well. We needed more towels when we arrived and Steve answered immediately and had them delivered along with water, milk, and paper products within an hour. Parking was great off the street and partially covered. Entry to unit was simple. We couldn’t figure out how to turn on any of the overhead lights but there were enough lamps that worked fine. The only thing I would add would be access to a washer and dryer since we had children and after 5 days walking in the heat, we collected quite a bit of dirty laundry :) but I knew that when booking the property.

Old House Charm

This was a great property. My friend and I had a fantastic stay and the house was great. We love old homes and this one was awesome!! It had a modern flair but the floors, doors, closets, high ceilings...nice!!

Steve was a fantastic host, with quick replies and dining recommendations. The property is really nice, has a great front porch, perfect location, and everything you need. The layout is a little funky (you need to go through one bedroom to get to the other, and the shower head is extremely low for us tall folks. But we'd definitely stay there again.

Spring Break

The house was lovely and had everything we needed for our family of four. Three tvs and two toilets with room to spread out is great when traveling with kids. We were able to walk to the downtown area with ease. Lots of other area attractions were just a short drive. So many food and beverage options available!! The house itself was comfortable and safe. Finding coffee, creamer, and sugar upon arrival was a treat that our tired souls needed. The front porch with its lovely breeze was a great spot for morning coffee and an evening nightcap. We truly enjoyed our stay.
Made breakfast at the house each morning.
