We are now one year at Del Web River-lights. The community and location are great! Our home has the perfect floor plan layout which is comfortable for us. Del Wed one year warranty process was expedient and a smooth process. Thanks to Caitlin!

We have only lived in the community for 2 1/2 weeks. So far, everyone has been extremely friendly and welcoming. We love the amenities and the safe environment the community provides. The only change that we would personally like to see modified is to be able to have more than four guest passes to the pool. This makes it difficult (impossible) to have our son, a family of six, join us at the same time. We look forward to meeting our many neighbors and taking part in all of the activities offered here!.

We love Wilm NC for many years and looking to retire, had appointments at all the local communities. Why DelWebb in Riverlights wasn't on our hit list, I don't remember but since we were put up for days with another community in the downtown Wilm, thought why not check it out, we are so closeby. Then we kept comparing the other communities to DelWebb homes and RL amenities, and nothing else was even close to comparison. Bill at DelWebb is always informative and readily available for questions as our house went through the building stage with weekly email updates from the Field Manager. Looking forward to many years here in Wilm NC! and No I haven't smelled any foul odors like Scotto lol

Great Place to live, the neighbors are great (its like a big family) and the amenity center is great. All of the Del Webb employees are great to work with and they all do an outstanding job. I highly recommend it. The only negative is their landscape company which I'm hoping they will replace soon.
