Great stay, great price, great host

Stayed at Cozy Cottage a few weeks while family member needed a transitional place before moving to an apartment in Wilmington. Was the perfect location to walk downtown to restaurants, with easy parking, and a central location. Inside the cottage was super clean, well appointed, and comfortable, with all needed kitchen appliances and bathrooms attached to each bedroom. Host Christine was a delight. Super easy to deal with and did NOT have a super long list of annoying instructions and rules that other rentals seem to have. Easy check in, easy check out. Great place overall.

Ferienhaus in Wilmington, historische Altstadt.

Raumangebot für 2 OK, für mehre ist der Essplatz etwas zu klein. Besonders angenehm sind die 2 Badezimmer. Geschirr und Besteck für 2 Personen OK, für mehrere zu dürftig, wenn man gerne selbst kochen möchte. Gute Lage, Altstadt gut zu Fuß zu erreichen. Historisches Haus alt aber wohnlich.

Cute, cozy and the perfect location!

We loved this house. It was cute, with a fenced yard for the dogs and perfectly located within walking distance to the river walk and downtown. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

Lovely cottage

This was a wonderful eclectic space to be in. Beds very comfortable. Towels very nice and heavy. Photos are accurate. It’s a very walkable historic neighborhood convenient to restaurants, river walk, breweries, performing arts center and beautiful very old homes to tour. I loved having the fenced yard for my dog to enjoy. There was a problem on arrival as the written instructions were incomplete on how to actually access the key. I received quick response to my message. The Wi-Fi password in the email communications was also wrong, but I found a brochure inside the house with correct info. I hope the owner and property manager will re-examine those communications and update for future guests.

Lovely property with great little fenced in back yard (which our dog loved). We walked downtown several times a week during our 6 week stay. Chris answers any questions promptly. My only complaint is that there were no visible smoke alarms

Charming and Ideal Location

We loved the ambience of the home as it is an historic house located in Wilmington’s Historic District. We were walking distance to town in one direction and a great brewery in the opposite direction. Well maintained and furnished with an eclectic mix of antique furniture. Bedroom suites with nice Caria marble vanities in each of the en-suites. Very nice property and David was an excellent property manager!

Amazing Month!

My family stayed in Christine's lovely home for a month while my young adult son was starting a job in Wilmington. We just loved it and still miss it! I absolutely love the job Christine has done restoring an older home. It is cute, cozy, and convenient. The neighborhood is wonderful to walk, especially with our small pups. We had everything needed in the home, including towels designated for the beach. Thank you, Christine, also, for clear communication and quickly addressing the one, very minor, Wifi issue.

Beautiful Historic Home

This Historic home was walking distance to River front for shopping and dining. We took daily walks enjoying all the beautiful homes, museums and going to playground when grandchildren came for Holidays. Home has everything needed for monthly stay, full size washer, dryer, kitchen. Plenty of places to sit in living room and a large front porch to visit. The house was spotless which was so nice since we arrived late. Neighbors were very friendly always wishing us a good day when they walked by. Enough parking in front even when family visited. Chris was a wonderful host and very easy to reach and answer questions. Will definitely stay there again in the near future.

great cottage, great location downtown

I really enjoyed my stay in this cottage in downtown Wilmington. Great location!! Easy walk to downtown and easy to find. On street parking available and was not an issue. The hardwood floors are gorgeous and I love that there was a private, fenced-in back yard for my dog. Lovely dishes and glassware in the kitchen. Had everything we needed and was clean and welcoming. I would highly recommend this property.

Comfortable & Lovely - Great Kitchen!

Had a wonderful stay at the Collins Chestnut House. It was the perfect location for what we needed. We chose this location based on proximity, comfort of furniture in the Living Room, pet friendly with fenced in back yard, and the kitchen. Regarding these, all was perfect. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms are fantastic, clean and modern even though the house dates back to 1910! The only thing that was a bit unnerving are the front and back door locks - they only lock or unlock from the inside WITH the key. We are always concerned about Fire Safety, and in the event of needing to get out quickly, this could hinder an exit and is a major fire hazard. Otherwise, the house has a lot of charm and it was nice to settle into this place for a few days while visiting family for the Holidays. Thank you!

Everything was perfect!

Rented the cottage for 4 nights for three of us in town for my nephew's wedding. Beautifully restored, well appointed, clean and quiet. Host unobtrusive which is a plus for me. Very close to historic downtown. Highly recommend and if we come back this way, hope to be able to stay there again.
