"The unit is nice with nice views. Everything in the unit is pretty "dated", nothing fancy. The A/C and wireless internet worked well."

"Great location for enjoying Wilmington. It is a walk to the houses from parking but a wagon does make it easier. The cove office was nice enough to let us borrow one which saved us. All in all a great place and would rent again."

"There was dog poop around the property and in the holding area. This is not on the owners, but the property managers should not allow this. The HVAC that was so noisy needs to be mitigated, not ear plugs. I was so tired that I didn't care, but my husband used his own. "

"PROS: Great location with access to all the attractions (restaurants, shopping, breweries) Deck was perfect for sunsets & people watching along the Riverwalk. Bed was comfy & AC worked great. (We had a very hot week.) CONS: It had everything we needed and was a good value but limited cooking space and the furniture could be updated (especially on the deck)"

"Up a flight of stairs above a very popular Italian restaurant hides a convenient, and quiet suite. You are a very short walk to the river walk area and even shorter to a great coffee shop (hidden grounds). Parking is across the street in a large public lot that the parking pass the property includes saves $ you on. A/C blows cold air, and wrightsville beach is a quick 25 min drive. What more could you want? Convenient all around."

"We had an amazing stay. The hosts were very kind, I felt welcomed but there was also good privacy. It was cozy and had everything we needed and more. I would love to stay again"

"Absolutely enchanting! We had a ton of fun exploring the garden, playing the instruments, and feeding the koi. The property is private and conveniently located. The only complaint I have is that the house was quite humid, and it was a bit uncomfortable (sweaty) at night for that reason. To be fair, it was about 95⁰ outside so the AC unit possibly could not keep up with the extreme heat. Other than that, it was a magical experience and I wouldn't hesitate to return in less sweltering weather."

"This property was nicely decorated and clean. A great location with a reasonable walk to downtown Wilmington and the waterfront. We were in for our daughter's UNCW college tour so it was a great place to call home base while in town. I would highly recommend this place to others!"

"Property was great and so was Halle! Only issue was that there was no iron and ironing table (I guess not everybody uses them these days). I let Halle know and she took care of it quickly. Thank you very much!"

"My husband and I appreciated arriving at this "artist's studio" after a long flight and drive to find it filled with the owner's creative and thoughtful touches. It is situated behind the owner's home. Keyless entry and exit was efficient. The location was within a short drive to many of the sights. The little cottage was so comfy with plenty of space including a small and efficient kitchen. We had more than enough room for our computers on the dining table. A small private patio and screened...

"The house had all needed, all was ready for our stay. It felt comfortable! And communication with manager is smooth and prompt. We loved that house is close to mall, stores and the beach! We enjoyed our stay! Yasmin"

"Great vacation stay. Highly recommended."

"Was a fabulous place for a quick getaway…close to restaurants. Walking paths near by .. too far to walk to the beach. Property managers were very helpful and went out of their way to communicate with us. Would highly recommend."

"Shelley was a great host. We had a problem with the internet and she immediately came to help. Since the internet provider couldn’t come out, she brought us a hotspot. It’s fairly close to UNCW. We worked while we were here. There’s a nice office area. We really enjoyed the pool. The master bed was very comfortable. Despite wanting to meet the resident kitty, she did not show up most likely due to our dog. Our dog enjoyed the dog door and fenced in yard. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. There...

"This property was absolutely beautiful and in a great location! Would definitely stay again."

Another Amazing Stay.

"As usual, the room was clean, quiet and the bed “Amazing”! No bed I’ve ever slept in has been as comfortable. We have attempted to find where to buy the bed without success. And the comforter is great. Slept better than most nights. Room very clean and staff friendly and helpful. "

"Room was as expected. Bed was terrible, it had a pitch to it and I felt as if I was going to roll to that one side. Propped up some pillows and was good to go. Great location and staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I would stay again even if I had same bed. "
