Stayed at this rental for the third time now. Tyler is great to work with. Texts/questions are answered promptly. This house is close to UNCW, the beach, Mayfaire shopping and many restaurants. It is in a quiet beautiful neighborhood. We look forward to our next visit!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, listing accuracy
Disliked: Communication
The house was very nice. There were lots of private spaces and also gathering spaces, so people could be on their own if needed, but still come together for a chat. On the map, it seemed very close to areas we needed to go, but because it was kind of buried in the neighborhood, it took longer than expected to get to places.

Great experience!
We’ve stayed twice now and my kids have come to love our time at Gadwall! Simple, clean, communicative owner. Highly recommend:)
Bedrooms were clean. Master bathroom’s shower was outdated, but it worked ok. Living room furniture was outdated, quite uncomfortable for all the family.
We were 3 adults and 2 children who very much enjoyed our stay here! Even though it was cold, the pool was a big hit! The house was very comfortable with lots of room to hang out. The beds were very comfortable. Highly recommend this place!

From the owner: "Thank you. We are glad you enjoyed your stay."
This property isn't on the beach, it's tucked inside a neighborhood cul de sac with a backyard salt water pool and was perfect for our graduation celebration and family vacation. We were able to get everywhere we wanted to go in Wilmington in 10-15 minutes. Carolina, Cure and Ft. Fisher were about 30 minutes. It was nice to come back to the house and not have the hubbub of beach traffic and vacationers. We would love to come again!
We had an enjoyable stay at this property, located in a quiet neighborhood. The house was very clean and nicely furnished. The kitchen was equipped with all needed items for food preparation. We would definitely rent this home again.
The property was perfect location, close to everything we needed, updated interior, spacious and owner very helpful and messy to work with. Would highly recommend

Wonderful house and location
We were in town for my sons graduation from UNCW and the home owner was so thoughtful to have a graduation gift for my son! The house was ideally located for everything on campus and Wrightsville beach, but still in a quiet location. The home was roomy, well kept and updated. The next time we are in town we certainly plan to stay here again. So much better than a hotel.

Bigger than it looks and close to everything!
The house is tucked away in a quiet neighborhood convenient to the Riverwalk in Wilmington as well as the beaches. Close to tons of great restaurants and other activities. The house is much bigger than the pictures look and there was plenty of space for a family of 4. They could easily add another bedroom and have enough space for more people! We stayed during a heat wave and enjoyed the pool most days. They came out twice to clean the pool, but it does attract a lot of bugs floating around (can't do much about that). So, we had to some cleaning of our own. The house is very tastefully updated. We didn't have any issues and the host was very responsive and nice! Highly recommend if you are staying in the Wilmington area!
My spouse and I stayed for a week. It was our first time in Wilmington. The property location was perfect for us. The pool was very private and it was close to go to the beaches and great restaurants. There were a couple of bugs in the house (but that is what to expect in the south). The pool is older but very private and we loved that it was salt water. Overall we enjoyed our time.
Great house that we fell in love with. Would love to own the house if it ever goes on the market. Stay was absolutely great. Loved the pool. Wished the house had a grill and also a fire pit. Other than that the stay was great
We had a wonderful stay as a family travelling with a toddler. The house was clean and the mattress in the master bedroom was one of the most comfortable I've slept on in a rental property. We loved that it was all one level for our little one to run around without worry. There were also a ton of books for the little one to read! We had a minor problem with the pool upon check in but the host was incredibly responsive and had someone out same day to help us. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would certainly recommend this home!

Very nice house in a quiet neighborhood. Had an issue with the internet. Contacted Tyler who responded within in minutes. After a few texts and photos sent the problem was resolved.
