Family vacation

The neighborhood was very quiet and close to shopping. Not a long drive to get to the ocean for some sun. We enjoyed each day we were there.

Great location and home

We stayed for a quick weekend trip with my family and the home is just as listed. It was clean and exactly like the pictures. The location is perfect to visit the battleship and other downtown locations with just a short drive. The beds were very comfortable. Will certainly stay again when we come to visit.

Great place to stay.

Steve was a wonderful host. My family and I had a great stay at his place, which is located near downtown and convenient to everything we were looking for. We only stayed a night but my family enjoyed our time at the house which was located on a quiet street. Rooms were spacious and welcoming. Thank you Steve!

A quick stay in downtown Wilmington

We were in town one night for a wedding and needed a convenient place to stay within walking distance of the venue. This location was perfect and we loved having a parking spot instead of fighting for street parking. The hosts were very accommodating with our need for an earlier check in. If we ever needed a place to stay in Wilmington again we will definitely come back.

Lovely home, wonderful host

We loved staying at “the Marilyn”! The home is beautiful and the neighborhood is fantastic. Our host Steve went above and beyond to be an amazing host when I reached out about a very minor inconvenience. I cannot recommend this property - or this host - enough!!

Modern decor in heart of Historic Wilmington

Came here with my husband when he wanted to take a fishing charter out of Wrightsville Beach with one of his friends. The area is very quiet and very close to the Riverwalk and local restaurants, boat rides, etc. Also appreciated that it is pet friendly. Steven the host is very accommodating and very quick to respond. Would highly recommend!

Comfy beds, GREAT air conditioning, and all of the essentials

Loved that the beds were comfy, everything we needed was there (dishwasher pods, coffee and creamer, pack n play). The owner even purchased a highchair for the place when he found out we had a baby coming with. Very communicative and easy to get ahold of

Lovely Home in Historic District

House is beautifully decorated, spacious, well appointed and in prime location to enjoy the riverfront. Only downside is single bathroom but our group of 5 managed fine. Don’t let that scare you off from this premium rental. We would definitely stay again. Owner is super responsive and accommodating as well.
