🕒 Welcome!

We want you to maximize your time here! To help us keep things running smoothly for everyone, please keep these things in mind:

🔏 Security Deposit: A $500 refundable security deposit is required for each reservation.

Check-In: Welcome home anytime after 4:00 PM using your keyless PIN code.

Check-Out: By 10:00 AM so our cleaning team can get to work making it perfect for the next guests.

A Quick Reminder: Please ensure your cars are moved at check-out time so our cleaning crew have a clear space to pull in. Unapproved late check-outs may incur a $200 fee.

Rental Agreement: Guests must sign the rental agreement and submit ID verification prior to arrival.

🚗 Parking Comfortably (Nun Street Details)

Parking downtown can be a bit tight, so we want to make sure you have a stress-free spot! To keep our great relationship with our neighbors and stay aligned with town rules, we have a two-car limit on Nun Street.

Your Spots: There is space for two (2) vehicles directly on the street right in front of our house.

Have extra cars? No problem at all! There is plenty of free parking available on the surrounding cross-streets.

Neighborly Love: To keep the peace on the block, please avoid parking directly in front of the two houses to the RIGHT of us, and make sure not to block or park in the small driveway to the LEFT of our front stairs (that's our neighbor's private property). Cars blocking our neighbors' spaces or driveways unfortunately risk being towed by the city.

🏡 House Guidelines & Neighborhood Standards

We are proud partners of the Rent Responsibly community, which means we strive to provide a safe, peaceful environment for you and our wonderful neighbors.

🚭 Fresh Air Only: Our home is strictly non-smoking (both indoors and outside on the front porch and back patio). Smoking indoors triggers a deep-deodorization treatment fee of $250.

🐾 Fur-Free Zone: This property is a pet-free home.

👥 Guest Count: To ensure everyone is safe and comfortable, only the guests included in your official booking may stay at the property.

🛑 Gatherings: While our home is incredibly spacious and perfect for making memories with your favorite people, we do adhere to standard platform policies prohibiting parties or large disruptive events.

🤫 Quiet Hours & Privacy: To ensure a peaceful night's sleep for everyone on the block, please respect our local city quiet hours. To help maintain this balance, the home features NoiseAware technology. It’s a 100% privacy-compliant smart device that only measures overall volume levels (it never records content or words) just to help us keep things neighborhood-friendly!

🎛️ Handy Home Tips

📺 Smart TVs

Every TV in the house is a ROKU TV! Feel free to log into your favorite streaming apps (Hulu, Netflix, Disney+, etc.) to catch up on your shows.

👉 Don't forget to log out of your accounts before you head home!

🌡️ AC, Heat & Fans

Each floor has its own central heating and cooling unit. You can easily adjust the climate to your liking using the digital wall thermostats on each level.

Ceiling Fans: To use the fans, make sure the wall light switch is flipped ON, then use the handy remote control to set your perfect speed.

🛏️ Lookout Trundle Bed

Headed up the spiral staircase? The cozy daybed in the top lookout easily converts into a comfortable trundle bed with two twin mattresses:

Gently slide the room's chair out of the way for clearance.

Grip the top of the daybed frame just above the drawers and pull it straight forward.

Once fully extended, just slide the top mattress down onto the pulled-out frame, and you're good to go!

🧼 Keeping Things Fresh

Cleaning & Bleach: To prevent accidental stains on fabrics or surfaces, please do NOT use bleach during your stay. Our professional cleaning crew takes care of all the deep sanitizing between guests!

Scents & Aromas: We ask that you please do not burn incense or diffuse essential oils during your stay. These scents can linger intensely and be very tough on the next guest if they have sensitive respiratory systems or allergies.

We want you to have an unforgettable trip to Wilmington and we kindly ask that you treat the home with care, as if it were your own. Our goal is to provide a beautiful, comfortable retreat where guests can truly relax and make lasting memories. This property is professionally managed by Host Help Property Management.
