9/10 Wonderful! (929 reviews)
Only 4 stars bc of the small things that add up - hair dryer not working, bath towel with make up stains, outdated shower fixture and surround - things that are easy wins. We stayed on the first floor and could hear everything our upstairs neighbor was doing, even going to the bathroom... depsite all that, I would stay again! Its close to Carolina Beach and Wilmington. Its a cute golf course community, the staff was really nice, and they offer discounts on play rates. Just want some minor upgrades!

We booked this stay through Expedia. We arrived around 10 pm. The house was asthetically pleasing. Unfortunately when we arrived, there were three dead roaches and fans blowing throughout the top floor of the house. We reached DW attempting to receive a refund due to feeling uncomfortable about the bugs. They advised that we would have to leave the premises THAT NIGHT and have their cleaning crew investigate the next morning. Since DW did not charge us, Expedia did, we have been awaiting communications to receive our refund.

Great stay in Wilmington downtown. I’ll be back! My only suggestion is to put more options to the breakfast other than vegan options.
