Appreciate the appeal of this historic bungalow home. Located among the many attractions of downtown and within an simple drive to the beaches, this historic yet modern home makes for the ideal spot to appreciate everything Wilmington has to offer. And if you just want to escape and relax, you have private access to the handsome pool getaway right outside your back door. (The pool is not heated and generally too cold to be in from late September through mid-May, but the pool remains open and the pool area can be appreciated year round.)

The historic but completely refreshed home includes a comfortable living room, a dining room that seats eight, a well-equipped kitchen, and a enormous back deck. The two bedrooms each have their own en suite bathrooms with walk-in showers. Additional sleeping is available on the fold-out couch in the living room. The front porch, deck, courtyard, and private pool areas offer great outdoor space for appreciating coffee in the morning and beverages in the evening, as well as a great place to soak up the sun or lounge in the shade!

All of historic downtown Wilmington is an painless walk from the home. There is off-street parking for two cars. All linens and towels are included, including pool and beach towels.

This home is not only in a prime location to savor Wilmington, but has everything you need to make for a calming hideaway!

Because of the outdoor space, guests often want to invite others over to join them. Modest gatherings are allowed, but we ask that you inform us first if anyone not staying at the home is coming over. The home is in a residential neighborhood and we ask that our guests be courteous of our neighbors. Therefore, we don’t allow groups of more than 12 and ask hosts to monitor noise levels, particularly after 9:00pm.

The number of family pets allowed is limited to one well-behaved pet. We live right next door to the property, so if you have any needs or questions while you are staying, we are very easy to reach.

Getting the best Wilmington vacation property experience:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

• Booking in Fall or Spring is one of our best tips for saving money on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties.
• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The best properties are booked early. Booking your vacation rental up to 12 months before your vacation is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Property managers sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for active duty military and veterans. Check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group.
• Booking websites typically offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which will generally cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base stay price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel overnight or extra gas expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Look for your local Carolina Beach area magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local articles, visitor guides have deals for local attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

• Lock your rental home while you're out. Keep your property safe!
• Don't leave anything behind! Just before departing, walk through the rental to confirm you've collected all belongings. Remember to check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
