We moved our stay at the Magnolia House! It comfortably accommodated 9 of us and would have been able to fit even more. Natalie was very helpful when I had a problem with the front door lock keypad. The home was very clean and smelled good. Would definitely stay here again!

It’s a huge house and all the bedrooms are connected but can be closed off. It was close to downtown, only about a 20 minute walk. The host was easy to get ahold of and was accommodating. It was great with little kids!

We were in town for a wedding, so we did not utilize the kitchen very much. We did enjoy a meal at the gorgeous dining room table. The puzzle table was a great addition for the little down time we had. The historic charm really exemplified the feel of the wedding atmosphere. The bedroom layouts were perfect for the number of people we had staying together. We really enjoyed our stay!

We had an amazing experience staying here.  The house was spotless, beautifully maintained, and exactly as described in the listing. It actually far exceeded our expectations. The location was convenient and quiet in a beautiful historic neighborhood that was very walkable. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was spacious and fully stocked. There was so much space that we didn’t even use the formal dining or sitting room. The host was incredibly responsive, friendly, and made the entire process smooth from check-in to check-out. We especially appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout the home that made our stay even more enjoyable.I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this property.

The house is gorgeous! We had plenty of room for our girls’ trip. Communication with the owner was great. At one point I was at the grocery store and couldn’t remember which type of coffee pot was at the house. She answered quickly and saved me from buying something I didn’t need. House location is also very convenient. Very close to the airport and riverfront area. I would rent this house again!

Great Weekend at Magnolia House

Our group had a great time at Magnolia House. It was beautiful and spacious with a lot of charm and Natalie was so helpful with anything we needed. The location is great too - a $5-10 Uber to anywhere downtown and $25 Uber to the beach. Wouldn't change a thing!

Dear Brielle, Thank you for this kind review! I love the fact that you used Uber to get around Wilmington from Magnolia House. It's so true- the house is very central to everything the city has to offer. The location is one of my favorite things about it. We are in the historic downtown area, and yet on a quiet street. And, we just an Uber ride from the beach without the hassle of high season parking. You were a pleasure to work with! Please come back for another visit soon! Natalie

Really comfortable place!

Our family (10 adults) thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Magnolia House while visiting Wilmington for my nieces wedding. The host was attentive to all questions and requests to include arranging an early check-in which was definitely appreciated! The location seemed central to going everyplace in the area. We found the house to be spacious and well equipped. In summary, we highly recommend this VRBO home.

Great Weekend Getaway!

This house is perfect for a large group! There was plenty of room for everyone to spend time together but also have their own space! It is located in an awesome location close to downtown! The weather was perfect so we were able to walk and explore downtown easily. It was perfect as it allowed us to cook some meals at the house and provided ample appliances and cookware. We will definitely be back!!!

Downtown beauty

This house truly is beautiful. It has plenty of room for larger groups looking to stay or even a small group. It is very reasonably priced for the 4000 square feet it offers. It is a 3 minute drive or Uber to the river walk and shops and restaurants. The property manager was very helpful and accessible. We had debated a beach house but I’m glad we chose this place. Very cool and clean colonial style home. Highly recommend staying here if you are looking to be close to everything Wilmington has to offer!

This home made our trip very relaxing

Although this is an older home it was charming and very comfortable. It was also very well equipped and I was very pleased to see the baby stroller and high chair as I had my 18 month old grandson with us. The large rooms and kitchen made it the perfect place to host our daughter’s wedding reception. Natalie, the owner was always accessible to us for any questions we had and Libby, the house manager went out of her way to make us feel at home. I would recommend this home to anyone staying in the Wilmington area.
