Loved the view of the river from the deck. So relaxing to sit on the swinging lounge and watch the river - a few boats now and then to look at too. The home itself was nicely appointed for a family, even though we only had the two of us full-time we did cook a family dinner with our son and his girlfriend who we were visiting. The the fully appointed kitchen made it easy.

From the moment we arrived, this property felt like a serene oasis on the river. The grounds were beautifully maintained, with freshly cut grass and meticulous landscaping that immediately set the tone for a relaxing stay.Walking into the home, we were greeted by the fresh, clean scent of what felt like an upscale boutique hotel. The house was spotless, well-organized, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed, including coffee, kitchen utensils, dishes, dining essentials, and plenty of fresh towels.The owners clearly put a great deal of care into creating an exceptional guest experience. We especially appreciated the abundance of amenities available to enjoy, including kayaks, games, a fire pit, and a beautiful waterfront setting complete with a private boat dock. Evenings spent around the bonfire overlooking the river were a highlight of the trip.The location is ideal—peaceful and secluded, yet only a short drive from Wilmington and some of North Carolina’s beautiful beaches. Whether you’re looking to relax with friends, enjoy a glass of wine by the water, go fishing, kayak, or simply unwind and disconnect, this property is the perfect getaway.We had a fantastic stay and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful, comfortable, and memorable retreat.

Exceeded Expectations

Perfect basecamp for paddles and biking at nearby Blue Clay Bike Park. Quiet neighborhood. Fantastic views of the river without any development on the other side—just nature. Short commute to great restaurants. Very interesting Civil War history as the current neighborhood is built over the former Swann Plantation. Civil War graves abandoned in a nearby tree thicket. House is nicely renovated. We appreciated the hot water on demand, coffee bar and rain shower. Super clean. Also liked not having to haul our kayaks here. Be sure and check tides before you put in. Current can be very strong. Not for unsupervised kids! Easy put in on property.

Unfortunately, in our business, sometimes we get guests that just can’t be made happy. I would not recommend hosting Victoria Moriarty.
