The property was excellent. Everything was A plus. The carriage house was fully stocked and then some. The owners thought of everything you could possibly need. It was very neat and clean and check in was a breeze. We parked our car and walked to just about everything. It was a lovely, safe neighborhood. We had a fantastic time in Wilmington.

Bobby and Wayne could not have set up clearly with much thought and consideration a more welcoming property and process. We loved our stay at the Butterly Hideout and everything was so easy and delightful. I helped my daughter look for places to live and we found a place for her nearby so I will be back when I (and or my husband and dog at times) will be back for sure to visit her. Best, Mary

About the host

Hosted by Wayne Williams

Host profile image
Bobby & Wayne moved to Wilmington in 2021 after living in Washington, DC for over 25 years. We are avid travelers - particularly Europe. We’ve found that great stays can help make trips more memorable! So we want you to have a relaxing, wonderful stay.

Why they chose this property

We were attracted by the small town charm of Wilmington's historic district that reminds us of our Capitol Hill neighborhood in Washington without the congestion and traffic! History around every corner coupled with great restaurants, museums, historic homes, the Riverwalk, theaters, and concerns at Live Oak Pavilion - all within walking distance!

What makes this property unique

Tastefully decorated with premium bedding and all the conveniences of home. We've tried to include everything to make your stay more enjoyable. Plus, dog-friendly! As dog-parents, we understand the challenges of finding pet-friendly travel accommodations, especially for large dogs. So, we wanted to create a space that was welcoming of the entire family including your fur baby!
