Adorable shack
The yak shack was adorable and very well stocked. They even had a whole drawer full of travel size toiletries. We will definitely stay here again since our son will be at uncw.

A Hidden Gem
We had a short stay at The Yak Shack to kick off our retirement vacation. Brittany & Ryan were perfect hosts. Their space is immaculate, beautifully decorated and everything you need to be completely comfortable. We’ve only been gone a day and have been raving to many people about them & The Yak Shack. Great location, close to everything and right in beautiful, historic Wilmington. Thanks for everything Brittany & Ryan~ we’ll be back!!

Perfect place, just what we needed!
Had a great weekend trip to Wilmington / Wrightsville beach during our stay at the Yak Shack! Brittany and Ryan were very attentive hosts and sent us lots of recommendations for the area (since it was our first time visiting Wilmington). The place was clean and cute, just what we needed for the weekend getaway! Will definitely be returning :)

Book the Yak Shack now!
The Yak Shack was a perfect place for my husband and I to stay for a weekend trip to visit family close by. Everything was pristine in the apartment. Comfortable bed, cool decor, great location and easy parking. Brittany and Ryan were super friendly and available for questions. Would definitely stay again when we’re back in town.
