Great little place to stay during our visit. Hosts provided everything we could have thought about needing! We loved the eclectic design and the efficient use of space. The outdoor space looked like a great place to hang out! We were here during a rainy period but on another trip I am looking forward to hanging out with my book on the back porch.

Great place near downtown Wilmington!

I stayed here for the entire month of July 2025 and had friends dropping in throughout the month. I really liked staying here. The kitchen is very small, but it has every gadget you could possibly need, including a burr mill coffee grinder, an espresso machine and full-sized washer and dryer. It only took about five minutes to get from here to the Riverwalk and about a half hour to the beaches. The back porch and the privacy fenced backyard were very pleasant and I liked being able to park on the grounds next to the backyard, The owner Bryan, was very helpful and responsive. The only reason I didn’t give five stars for this cottage is that the guest bedroom has a bunkbed with a rope ladder. That did not work for my friends, who are older and not able to climb up there.

Owners were very nice and quick to answer questions. Nice stay and close to everything. We were out most of the time but the backyard was a nice place to relax in the evenings. It had everything we needed for the short time we were there. Just bring a hair blow dryer. Thanks for the stay.

We had the best time exploring the local breweries, live music at live oak pavilion, and tasty Mediterranean food! The location of the cottage is perfect for those looking to explore downtown! Will be back soon, thank you.
