Family-friendly vacation rentals in Wilmington

Bill and Sandi treated me as if I were family! But... they failed to mention how BEAUTIFUL their neighborhood is! There are 3 gorgeous horses across the way, friendly cats, and even turkeys!! I was welcome to use the hot tub anytime I wanted and they even got me a bottle of wine. I'm definitely returning soon. xxx

Jeneene’s was a great place to stay for our family. Beautifully appointed and well set up for kids. An easy distance to the airport and Philly sports venues. We greatly enjoyed our stay. Easily accommodated 9 adults and 3 toddlers.

Sue’s place had great views and that cozy cabin feel. She was a great host and was very willing to accommodate us. The Airbnb was exactly as it was described. The surrounding town was also beautiful and had excellent places to eat. Well worth the stay.

It's a perfectly lovely cottage, as seen in the photos. One big happy room with a comfy bed. We stayed for a weekend, and drove to Philly a couple times (40 minutes?), which was close enough. We also hiked a bit. You can walk right out of the house, right down the road, right into the nearby state park, and right into the adjacent arboretum. Which is altogether pretty cool. Could it possibly be better? Yes, the one drawback is that you're staying in someone's yard. But the house is pretty far back, and we did not meet our hosts, or anything like that. That is to say it felt very private. In short, it was absolutely 100% worth the price.

Enjoyed our stay the home was cute, inviting and conveniently located to all attractions. Will definitely rent again when we are back in PA. Thanks for offering and allowing us to stay in your home.

Loved this place for a small weekend get away with friends. It was so peaceful and relaxing.

Eli’s place was great! Spacious, clean, and a very convenient location. Eli was communicative and helpful. Since it is a very central location some noise from the street is to be expected, so be prepared for that. Overall all went smoothly, highly recommend!

Wonderful place to just get away and quiet your worries. Great meditation with the winds in the trees and the sounds of the birds. The jacuzzi was wonderful! Well heated, 3 stations: one to laydown and get the shoulders and back the other 2 sit you in a cradle-like chair one for the neck the other lower back. It fits 6 comfortably. It was alittle rainy but it wasnt so bad that we couldn't keep our fire going all night. Both the grill and stove were used to cook and the dishwasher was nice for quick cleanup. Just had to rinse the dishes and put them through. The shower is ada compliant but made it kind of small for bigger people to stand comfortably, great if you like sitting down while showering. The bed was comfortable and loved the globe nightlite. The layout of the overall place made our stay just feel like we were at home. Thank you so much Kara!

My family and I stayed at Todd’s for a visit to Dutch Wonderland. It was fantastic. The house is unique and beautiful. Great movies, games, coffee table books. My kids loved playing in the basement. My husband loved playing great tunes on the record player. It was too cold for us to spend time outside, but in warmer weather the back yard would be amazing. Todd was very communicative and made us feel extremely welcome. Highly recommend!

Lauren’s apartment was the perfect central Philly location for our family holiday. Had everything we needed for our stay, the washer and dryer were a bonus! Bedrooms were very comfortable and just what we needed after a long day walking. Located literally a stone’s throw from the Liberty Bell & Independence Hall and within walking distance of lovely coffee shops and restaurants, the Independence Visitor Centre (the volunteers there are lovely) and lots of historical locations to explore. Would definitely stay there again.

This place was clean and she answered all my questions. I would book this place again.

Stayed for 4 days and it was a great stay. The place was clean and Alberto was friendly and responsive! Great neighborhood and in waking distance from restaurants, breweries. - Rob

Fabulous place to stay. Beds were very comfortable. The area ( Amish country) was so beautiful and interesting. We hope to come back!

We came back to this Airbnb a second time. It was just as lovely, beautiful, and serene to be in as the first time around. Thank you Kathleen and team for such a a wonderful stay and for being so great with communication and accommodations. 10/10 recommend this hidden gem! The entrance to the house may be hard to find at first, but once you do find the trail to drive in, it’s like driving through the enchanted forest into a private oasis. Thank you again!

My husband and I take a yearly trip to Lancaster for our anniversary. We were looking for somewhere quiet and relaxing where we could unplug from everyday life. This was the perfect spot. The house was adorable, very clean and comfortable. I’m nearly 5 months pregnant and had the best night of sleep I’ve gotten since getting pregnant. Juana was extremely responsive and very helpful. I needed milk and it was too late to go anywhere so she brought some right over. She left some fresh sourdough cookies and various local goodies that I absolutely inhaled. We will be making this our regular spot when we are in the area. BONUS-the sweet orange barn cat who loved scratches and attention distracted me from missing my fur babies at home.

Dennis was extremely easy to talk to and made sure had everything we needed before we landed ! The place was in a quiet neighborhood like advertised and the place was very clean.

Our 2 families had a great stay. Nice weekend getaway, close to our boys’ basketball tournament. Lots of room for 8 of us and if felt like home!

Beautiful sustainable farm! Our kids loved interacting with the animals and picking and eating the fresh fruits and vegetables from their varied farm. Nancy and Richard were wonderful hosts and gave a wealth of farming knowledge and experience. We definitely got a lot more than we anticipated! We all had a lovely stay and hope to visit again!

We had a wonderful stay at Kim’s place. The house was clean and comfortable. There was lots of room to gather, and the kids enjoyed themselves so much. We really appreciate that there were games and age-appropriate toys for our little ones. The house was so peaceful and the neighborhood so quiet, we slept really well. So well, in fact, that it was hard to get out of bed in the mornings, even though we had fun things planned for each day. The house is within 20 minutes of shopping and entertainment; that was a huge plus. Kim was a responsive and gracious host. We felt right at home. I would recommend her place to anyone who’s looking for some peace and quiet but wants to be within easy reach of retail and entertainment spots. We would love to stay here again the next time we visit the area, especially if we’re going to Sight & Sound. It was such a quick and easy trip to the theater.

This Airbnb is amazingly spacious and squeaky clean!! WOW!! Our family loved our time here and we were so incredibly comfortable. Every thoughtful detail is covered. Quick drive to all the fun activities in the community. We all had a great time, just wish we could have stayed longer.

We had a nice stay at Caryle’s house. It was a nice location to explore Longwood gardens, Wintertur, and Philadelphia. Neighborhood was quiet. The house was nice and clean and we felt right at home. Caryle was very responsive and proactive.

This home has all of the amenities and was so peaceful. You can tell there are a lot of loving memories in this home. The owner is warm and communicative.

Our stay at the AVE was outstanding! The host was very friendly, responsive and helpful! Would highly recommend staying here!

What a beautiful property! The views are stunning and it is so very peaceful. We had everything we needed and then some. I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone. Also if you are an early riser you might catch a glimpse of the fox making his morning routine across the property 😊
