"We had an excellent stay here while our house was being worked on in Wilmington. It was very comfortable with accessibility to the river, beach, pool, gym, and you can walk a few steps to play some golf. Richard was an excellent host, and was very responsive. He helped us add a few days to our rental when our construction project was extended. Very nice community and comfortable home. The only thing I would note is that VRBO requires a 1500 refundable deposit. This doesn't seem to have anything...
