Oct 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wilmington fall trip 2024 We really enjoyed our stay at Serenity Near the Sea! The house was spotless and well equipped. Bed was super comfortable with a nice fluffy comforter. Bathroom had a large shower and extra toiletries in case you forgot anything. Kitchen was well stocked with plenty of pans and utensils. Our golden retriever found the toy basket immediately upon arrival and carried the octopus around during our entire stay! Our favorite feature was the large front porch. We spent a lot of time out there eating breakfast and having coffee. The neighbors were all so friendly, we felt right at home! We will definitely stay here again. Thanks to Brian and Kristi for sharing their beautiful home. ##### Sheri H. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2024
