Thank you for a wonderful week! I have enjoyed your relaxed aloha hospitality, great breakfasts, good conversations…and the Jacuzzi was nice too! Seattle, WA

February 2004
I usually don't do testimonials, but my girlfriend suggested this note. We could praise the bed (yes, quite comfortable), or the food (quality and quantity), or even the Wilmington nightlife (thoroughly enjoyed Circa 1922 and a play at Thalian Hall). But by far we truly enjoyed our breakfast conversation with Larry, Page and the other guests. (Ask Larry about his fishing for spot or clamming and oystering-then watch how his eyes light up! A truly memorable stay! Raleigh, NC

Thank you for such a wonderful, relaxing stay! The pecan waffles were INCREDIBLE and the room was just perfect. Thanks again! Philadelphia, PA

February 2004
This was a delightful respite in an otherwise very busy week! Thanks for letting our Katherine spend time in your Katherine's room. The bed was heavenly (wished we could have slept in it longer!) and breakfast was superb. You are both warm and welcoming hosts, and we hope to return. Chapel Hill, NC

December 2003
Once again I have returned. The bed was very comfortable for a much needed rest. Peace. Washington, DC

November 2003 Many thanks for all of your wonderful hospitality. We certainly enjoyed the gem of your home nestled here on this charming street. I'm sure that we'll be returning for another memorable visit as our Wilmington roots grow deeper.

October 2003
We had a relaxing and wonderful time in Wilmington. We haven't done a B&B before, so it will be difficult to top the hospitality we experienced here!

October 2003
We had a great stay & look forward to visiting the Hoge-Wood House again on another "weekend away". We love the relaxed & laid back atmosphere!! (GREAT breakfast, too!)

October 2003
We were so lucky that our friends visited you in April. When they learned we were planning a trip to Wilmington, they quickly recommended your B&B. The location of your place is perfect. The accommodations were excellent-pretty and comfy, and the breakfasts were wonderful. The nicest thing, though, was your hospitality! This visit was a wonderful getaway from daily struggles and stress.

October 2003 Thank you for your hospitality. We had a very relaxing weekend. You home is warm and inviting and we appreciate you sharing it with us. My husband especially enjoyed playing the guitar on the porch while we drank wine and visited with you two!

September 2003
Thank you for a wonderful stay…comfy bed, delicious food, and superior hospitality. We look forward to coming back to visit. Thanks too for the wine!
