Waterfront Studio Apartment
Let me start by saying the home is located in the heart of Jacksonville NC. The view is truly amazing! I felt safe, relax and at home. The home is equipped with everything that I needed. Melinda is a gem, she reached out with me a few times during my stay to make sure that I’m ok and have everything that I needed and also informed me the day she spotted dolphins were passing by. Love this place. Thank you Melinda for sharing your beautiful place.

Stunning Sunsets, Walkable Condo, Covered Parking
Great place and right in the heart of everything. We wish we planned more time, the place had beautiful sunsets.

Take a Break at Shore Break!
We loved this stay, beautiful view and very kind host!

New! Oceanfront 2bd/2ba - Penthouse View!
We were very impressed with the condo! Clean and updated! Beach was steps away! We really liked decor and homey feel of everything! Felt more like walking into your home than anything! Highly recommend! Lauren is extremely fast to respond and always had the best and most helpful answers! Do not hesitate! You must go!!!!

Riverfront sunset balcony + free covered parking
Audrey gave perfect instructions regarding how to find the unit, and getting in was extremely easy. We loved the peace and quiet around us and the walkability to several great restaurants. It was the perfect getaway for the two of us for a couple of days. The space had everything that we needed and was very comfortable and very clean.

Close Enough WB
Great place to stay. Loved the location and reasonably priced!

Beautiful Waterway View w/parking *No service fee!
Great place!!!

River Retreat
Super comfortable bed! Slept great. Loved the shower and plenty of hot water. Lovely views front and back. Saw Chris and the puppy a few times...super friendly and let my kids throw the ball with the sweet pup. :) Would stay here again except my daughter is moving to a different area in Wilmington.
Waterfront house rentals

Anchored Inn
This home was the perfect set up for a beach house. We loved the porch which had several comfortable chairs and a nice bar table with an umbrella. and large kitchen with an open floor plan. Jim was very punctual with getting back to us and super friendly and helpful! We will definitely stay here again.

Beautiful waterfront home with private ramp/lifts
We always enjoy staying on this area. The view from the house was spectacular! We would definitely recommend staying here.

Little House On The Beach
This little house was the perfect beach stay. The wrap around deck with steps that lead to the sand, private beach access, and big window views of the ocean were amazing. I will emphasize that it is exactly as advertised, “little house on the beach” with one shared bathroom, 2 small bedrooms, and a living room/kitchen this is a perfect spot for a couple, small family, or just a few adults. If you’re trying to save and fit more the beds will accommodate just want to caution it will be cramped! The house was spotless and stocked with everything we needed.

The Regency
Beautiful houseboat exactly like in the pictures. Being the end unit, it has the best view of the river and Battleship North Carolina. It also has better privacy and access convenience to the community picnic area. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. Everything was perfect!

The Riverbend @ Old River Acres
Beautiful home, spotlessly clean in beautiful surroundings. Kitchen was well stocked and it was fun to use the provided kayaks!

Oceanview - Waterfront w/ private dock
Beautiful house with plenty of room for us. The house is very clean and within walking distance to the beach and activities.

2 Good 2 Be True golf cart paddle board kayaks
The house was clean and spacious and the views were calming. The living room was really a place for gathering friends and watching the final four on the lovely sectional couch and giant loveseat chair. We ate our dinner around the dining table with plenty of room. The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of room in each bedroom for our belongings. We walked to the beach and took the golf cart to the beach as well. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. The only downside was there was not enough seats on the outside decks where we spent most of our time. There were only two chairs and a love seat. We would stay again!

Waterfront Cottage with Panoramic Waterway Views
We had unforeseen circumstances that required us to book a new stay last minute late at night on a Friday. The host was responsive immediately and accommodated us. The house was clean and beautiful. It was a short drive to the beach. It was a great space to relax at whole unwinding from from the sand and sun. They provided great recommendations and we would definitely stay there again. Thanks for the great stay.

Cozy Downtown Condo with River Views
Staycation weekend. We’re able to explore Wilmington without a car. Well equipped kitchen. Quiet, peaceful and well stocked with lots to do within walking distance. Loved it! Thank you Tara!

Seas The Day w/ Fantastic Marina Views!
We have already recommended MK's place to some others - however, we did warn them that the unit was up 34 stairs! There was nothing in the property description to indicate that and for a couple of 73 year olds the climb with all our stuff was too much. Thankfully we had our young strong kids along! We always appreciate being able to bring our dog along, and he, along with the rest of us, totally enjoyed the 2 private balconies. The ac was plenty cold, the dryer not so hot. Beds comfortable, covered parking a plus, and we all enjoyed the pool. Location was the best, able to walk to every place, and that made it worth the 34 stair climb. Highly recommend Hang Ten Grill for huge salads and best wings ever, Salt Fish for yummy cocktails and deliciously unique entrees ( make a reservation), the Fat Pelican for a fun experience. We had a wonderful time and can't wait to go back!

Beautiful Cape Fear Riverfront Condo Wilmington NC
The apartment is on the second floor with a beautiful view overlooking the boardwalk and Cape Fear River. Nice size balcony and large front windows. Comfortable bed and furniture. Kitchen has everything needed. Steps from the center of downtown.

Getaway @ The Waterway Wrightsville Beach
The place was very cozy with lots of walkable options. Easy to drive downtown or get to the beach. We enjoyed our stay very much!

River FRONT | SuperHost | Free Parking!
Everything regarding our expectations was met. We found lots to see and do in the area. Great seafood and drinks in the immediate area... we love Wilmington NC. Can't wait to return! Jim Miller

Panoramic River view Downtown Condo w/Balcony
My teenage daughter and I stayed here over her Spring Break and it was perfect! The location is great! The gorgeous view of the USS North Carolina from the balcony at sunset is absolutely stunning!! The condo is in a safe, secure building and the parking pass for the garage that is only a block away was wonderful to have. The hosts gave very detailed instructions and were very responsive during our stay. I highly recommended staying here next time you are in Wilmington!

DT~ Free parking~ Beach 20min~ Sunset river views
We loved our stay! It was the perfect getaway with my husband and our 10 month old. Easy check in. The elevator was perfect for our stroller and easy to bring our bags inside. The balcony views were amazing. Walking distance to everything downtown! The hosts were super responsive and helpful! We will definitely be back and recommend staying here to all!

Balcony + River Views | Walk to Downtown
Loved staying at Taryn’s. It was homie and cozy and everything I could’ve asked for. I wanted a small clean place with things to do around it and it’s exactly how I imagined it! Nothing wrong with the place at all and if there was something that Taryn needed to tell me she was quick to do so. Quick to text back and flexible. 10/10 place will 100% be staying here again.
